Amicus717 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 This sounds like fun. I've always wanted to try Project SAM's stuff, so this might be a really nice free window into their libraries: https://projectsam.com/free-orchestra/ 3
InstrEd Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 thanks for the heads-up. Now I have to spend $$ on Kontakt

Now I have to spend $$ on Kontakt Buying Kontakt was the most value I've gotten for my dollar in the last 5 years, in terms of stuff bought for my music hobby. I fire Kontakt up in every project I do, and a good number of my really essential libraries use it. I've even started rolling my own small patches -- just because I can, and its fun. FWIW, I'm extremely glad I picked it up... 2
InstrEd Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 I keep looking at it but haven't pulled the trigger yet.
Tobias Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Will check that one out for sure when released. Keep us updated 1

It's amazing how you can transform a sound. 1
Tapsa Kuusniemi Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 This has the potential of being a real booster for people. Project SAM makes quality stuff. 1
Amicus717 Posted January 7, 2019 Author Posted January 7, 2019 I've been eyeing their products for a while. I find them pricey, but the walkthrus and demos sound gorgeous -- I get the impression that Project SAM's samples are exquisitely recorded, and their multis and combos are well designed. I also think they update their products really regularly, including adding content and significant tech updates, which I imagine offsets the fact that some of their stuff is a bit older, at least by sampling standards. I've been considering buy Orchestral Essentials 1, just to see if how much I like their sound and approach. This freebie might go a long way towards convincing me to do so...
Byron Dickens Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 I am always disappointed to find out that I would have to spend $400 to use a free library.
Amicus717 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Posted January 31, 2019 First freebie has dropped: https://projectsam.com/libraries/the-free-orchestra-1-tutti-hits/ More will follow on the last Thursday of each month.
paulo Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Based on the first offering, saying that I was whelmed would be a generous omission of under. 1

Hits are rather hard to use as anything other than effects, not much else imo. But hey, I am not going to be one of those people complaining about free stuff But yea ... so far not for me but I am ever the optimist so maybe the next one will be totally awesome!
