EDIROL Orchestra Software Synthesizer
Edirol HQ-OR Orchestra Software Synthesizer, Premium Plug-In (VST/DirectX) for orchestral Instruments like Grand Piano Strings, woodwinds, brass, orchestra-percussion, max. 128 voice polyphonic.
OK, thats the standard blurb for the 'Orchestral', it is actualy a phenomenal bit of software for what it does, which is to provide quite realistic orchestral parts without resorting to loaidng large sample sets, so the plugin is actualy quite light in use. The instruments are devided into banks for the usual orchestral parts... Strings, Brass, Piano, Woodwinds etc. The unit is multi-timbrel with 16 channels, each of which can be assigned to a MIDI channel, and each of which has an EDIT sectionm which offers envelopes and much more. There is also an overall reverb which isnt very nice but is passable. The only drawback of this software is that it does not save your setup with the sequencer song which is very unusual for a VSTi... So you either have to save the setup using the Orchetral's built-in edit/save function and then load that song's edirol setup when you open the song, or better learn how to add-in programme changes and let your sequencer assign the required sounds when the tyrack starts to play.
Otherwise it's very good. I own Garritan personal orchestra and yet find myself using this again & again because it's so easy to use and doesn't have that aweful 'Modulation wheel' volume control thing which Garritan has.
Edirol Orchestral also has different setups for different ypes of classic music... You can configure it for setups like full orchestra, string quartet, baroque, string & woodwind quintet, marching band, etc, and each preset 'setup' arranges the instruments in the classic layout for pan & volume/distance etc and provides any tonal variations as well as the actual instument differences required for that type of classic setup. Ther is also a 'Preview' button for each setup which plays a well-known classical piece in the style of that setup.
All in all, a great plugin, shame they dont sort out the 'save with song' sissue. Sounds are good enuff in quality to use in professional film score work. We've used Orchestral in the Dancetech studio many times for film score work inc' award winning films with festival prizes such as Sundance Festival & Cairo Film Festival.
