Fleer Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Finally on sale. Love this kind of all-in-one orchestral libs, similar to Spitfire’s Albion ONE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bohlen Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 It looks good. Wonder how it compares with the more established ones since it's smaller in size. I think "sketch" is the take-away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antler Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) Not at all trying to talk this one down because it sounds really good, but I'm a little confused: a sketchpad to me sounds like something fairly comprehensive but lightweight, so someone can put down ideas quickly without worrying about library loading times; that said, 26 GB seems like quite a large library.

Amicus717 Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) I have Symphonic Sketchpad. It's not bad at all, and is pretty much exactly what it says it is: a sketchpad for orchestral ideas. The sounds are decent and useable, including some minor gems -- the piano is quite nice, for example. The sounds are fairly dry, and the mix of microphones are quite useful for blending this library with others. The interface is quite configurable and easy to use. It's pretty efficiently put together, and you've got everything you need to make fairly comprehensive sketches with it. I sort of look on it as a really no-frills Albion ONE (well, kind of...), and plan to use it on my laptop when I travel. I doubt it will ever make a regular appearance in the orchestral template on my main DAW -- I have too many glossier and more specialized libraries to draw from. But when I visit my parents in Florida, or whatever, I can see this being a really useful tool for working on new music ideas. It sounds good enough that you could make some pretty nice sketches with it, and it's fast and easy to use. I like to write music really quickly and with minimal fuss, and Sketchpad has been pretty good at that, so far. For what it's worth, at $99 its great. I would have been somewhat unhappy if I'd paid $299. As always, YMMV... Edited September 26, 2019 by Robert Caley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
