Matthew Sorrels 1,474 Posted December 19, 2019 New 1.1 update looks pretty awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael A.D. 129 Posted December 19, 2019 Oh yeah!!! Can't wait to try out this new update. Should be interesting to see how they integrate the piano. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reid Rosefelt 1,741 Posted December 19, 2019 I love Sonuscore and their 5-part engines. The Orchestra works so well with Elysion, Mallet Flux, not to mention the Origins series. Can't wait for the next expansions. Expecting woodwinds and brass, but who knows how they will do it. Maybe incorporating a world instrument as with the strings. Great company.

Amicus717 313 Posted December 19, 2019 Gotta admit, this one tempts me. I get the impression folks really like this library?... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris.r 686 Posted December 19, 2019 How long is the sale? I'm waiting for a particular Sonokinetic library and/or one from Spitfire, if they roll them out for sale this xmas. If not, or the sale price won't match my expectation, I might go with this one. Thx. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matthew Sorrels 1,474 Posted December 19, 2019 Sales is on till Jan 2. But you want the Orchestra Complete (yes, you really do otherwise you don't get all this new stuff) which isn't on sale. So you buy The Orchestra (on sale) and the upgrade to Complete (also on sale). At Best Service that comes in just under $300 US. But they don't let you play any currency games (paying in Euros might be better for US customers right now). So other stores might get you a better deal. You'll need to do a lot of math with the currency and the incentive coins/credits. Lots of dealers carry the Best Service products though so you should be able to get a deal. I also think you'd want Elysion, which you can get a crossgrade price on. It's pretty nice too. It's what Spitfire dreams of when they realize how bad EDNA Earth is. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Madden 3 Posted December 21, 2019 I noticed today the upgrade to Orchestra Complete is $77.61 on Kontakt Hub. Assuming they're trustworthy, that's the best price I've seen. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matthew Sorrels 1,474 Posted December 21, 2019 Kontakt Hub is trustworthy and that's a crazy good price. https://www.kontakthub.com/product/the-orchestra-complete-upgrade/ Same thing at Best Service is $119 and that's on sale. I wonder if Kontakt Hub's price is an error? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Madden 3 Posted December 21, 2019 I jumped on it in case it is the wrong price. The sale went through without any issues. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZincT 2,108 Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) Oh boy, soooo tempted by this. Can't believe the low hard drive usage either (or that I missed that pricing error while I was away). So is this correct....The Orchestra is 6.65 Gb and the Complete Upgrade adds another 11.1 Gb? So a total of ~ 17.75 Gb ? Edited December 28, 2019 by ZincT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fleer 4,162 Posted December 28, 2019 I believe the total (Complete) download is around 11 GB. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matthew Sorrels 1,474 Posted December 28, 2019 11.3 GB for Orchestra Complete for me. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matthew Sorrels 1,474 Posted December 28, 2019 The reason this is so small on disc (and in ram too) is there is only one mic/mix. If you think about it, every single mic option means another set of all the samples. So two mics cost you 2x, 3 mics 3x, etc. They also don't have a ton of velocity layers nor a bunch of round robins. All of which would increase the disc (and memory) footprint. I think the disc requirements they list aren't to be added. Complete is 11.3 GB, the basic version is 6.36 GB 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree but since this was really about The Orchestra, I didn't want it missed. I missed the mishap on the Complete upgrade and then missed the KVR sale of Amadeus at $85 - took the 4 grandkids on a short trip and been on the road for 16 hours - HIGH priority and memories we'll all benefit from! For myself, I am still dragging my Gas! Which isn't a bad thing but I'm still considering my options on this product. 😀 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
