Overview

A meticulously designed mega-epic instant orchestra created from re-orchestrating the best of our Symphonic Symphony Orchestra. A truly exclusive toolset only available to owners of SSO, this is designed for pros working at their limits needing a super car to get them across the finish line. Arranged and orchestrated by our award-winning composer team as no-nonsense single patches (ie. for two-handed use) with multiple and transformative dynamics controlled via CC#1 (modulation wheel) with particular studious attention to their responsiveness and playability. The ultimate writing tool for composers who don’t hang around, don’t take any prisoners, and don’t get fazed by impossible scheduling demands. This will get the job done.

Background

By unifying our previously modular orchestral range and combining the three choirs - brass, woods, strings - into a single entity we've allowed for some very special treats. We have taken the last half year re-orchestrating, re-sequencing, and re-baking this amazing world class content into a super epic instant orchestral project. Not simply a matter of whacking some instruments together into a multi and auto sampling, this project has been forensically programmed by our award winning team of composers and engineers. Masse is a curated selection of commonly used combinations of choirs, to oft requested cocktails of instruments through to some highly experimental approaches in patch creation. We have been using these presets and patches in anger for months, tweaking their feel, their responsiveness, their bite, so you can plug-in play and create impressive orchestral mayhem effortlessly, whether you’re in your studio, or in a taxi on the way to the airport!

GUIs

The Overview Panel

This is the main interface for melodic instruments. Its default view displays all available playing techniques, has a simple microphone mixer and includes the main feature controllers.

General Controls Panel

This view allows further in-depth control of the instrument, showing all available signals and feature controllers, as well as the ability to purge techniques from memory to reduce system usage.

The Ostinatum

In this view you can add notes to a pattern sequencer, select which key it triggers on and then play for instant ostinato creation. It’s like an arpeggiator on a synthesiser.
