Marc Cormier Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) Anyone have this? Wonder how it compares to Amadeus which is also on sale right now. This is over half off at $67.45 in the cart. Expansion for VSL's Big Bang Orchestra The Big Bang Orchestra (BBO) from VSL is a library consisting of an orchestra playing all together, aka "Tutti". The first tier of VSL's Big Bang Orchestra is completely free (and remains so) and contains very basic articulations with limited tonal flexibility. BBO: Andromeda gives you all the articulations of the free Big Bang Orchestra, newly and uniquely recorded with more sonic and expressive flexibility, along with many more articulations that were not included in the free version. Please note: You do not need to have the free Big Bang Orchestra previously installed to use BBO: Andromeda. Massive “tutti” orchestra for super-quick large orchestrations More than 7 times bigger (11 GB) than the free Big Bang Orchestra Multiple microphone positions, additional close mic positions Shorter notes with precise attacks, optimized repetition notes Wide variety of long notes, more dynamic articulations Removable piccolo https://www.audiodeluxe.com/products/studio-tools/vienna-big-bang-orchestra-andromeda Edited December 23, 2019 by Marc Cormier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid Rosefelt Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 I don't see any basis for comparison. Amadeus has every imaginable orchestral instrument with a lot of articulations, sometimes multiple versions of solos, plus numerous ensembles, a very unique and fun Symphony feature (a sampled version of Indiginus' synth-based Solid State Symphony (always $59) , percussion, choirs, three keyboards, nylon and electric guitar, etc. etc. Plus full orchestras. Big Bang Orchestra is just Tuttis, with VERY limited articulations. But a lot of people don't like the sound of Amadeus. I use it all the time. Often it fits in perfectly with the music I make. All the sounds in Amadeus were purchased from other companies, and Sonic Scores made deals not to say who the companies were--just that they were used on a lot of big movies, etc. Presumably long ago. On the other hand, the free Big Bang Orchestra sounds AMAZING, and it really does make me want Andromeda. But they are totally different things.
