Whether you want a perfectly realistic choral sound or you are creating new sounds, these samples provide the user with perfect material with which to work.

Peter Siedlaczek´s, Orchestral Colours created a new trend - the use of prepared, skilfully arranged orchestral building blocks. The result is a colourful mixture of hits, finales, passages, layers, atmospheres - a collection of ´mini-works" which are playable in any key! The incredible tonal richness of a symphony orchestra, its expressiveness, dynamic, or its "power", makes it the most mighty and versatile body of sound. lt is no wonder that orchestral sounds have become an obligatory part of every collection of samples.

Reviews
Computer Music 09/2008
This 11GB library from sampling legend Peter Siedlaczek is made up of a number of previous titles, some of which date back as far as the early90s. The move to the Kontakt Player 2 engine makes these patches more usable, though, adding new features like pitch/time manipulation.
The Advanced Orchestra section comprises a plethora of instruments with keyswitched articulations, trills, crescendos and so on. Classical Choir
provides ‘oohs’, ‘aahs’ and some less common vocal tones, while Total Piano includes typical and prepared instruments. Smart Violins has loads of
phrases, run and even ‘disco licks’, and Orchestral Colours features orchestral phrases, finales, cadences and hits. As an all-round solution, this is
excellent. It’s good value and not too resource-heavy either.
Rating: 9/10
