WOW! My goodness... I was looking for a good string library but this one, although not being a real string library, sounds awesome! And if I am not mistaken you can get pretty convincing results with it rather quickly! I just read a review on some film scoring site which said that a lot of what you can do with Albion will take hours of layering and editing with other more normal orchestral libraries. Man, this one sounds GREAT! And the best thing: it's cheaper than all the libraries I've seen so far!

Awesome. I am going to check out some more video's...!

Anyone on the fence may want to wait another month or so since ProjectSam just announced what seems to be a pretty direct counter to Albion.

Hm... Albion is ONE product, ONE thought, ONE idea: ProjectSam's offering is a mixture of various products, put together in one box. I wonder if that would work together as well as Albion does. The price is low though, compared to Symphobian... Still, I don't really like 'collections'...

P.S. I purchased Albion this week, so perhaps hence my scepticism...

No need for buyers remorse lol. You're pretty safe with Albion. But SAMs stuff is all pretty damn good as well. Its just another alternative which is always good.

Yes, I certainly don't regret my purchase! I'm having big fun with it. This is my very first try at creating some cinematic music. Just fooling around, nothing very original!

The new Project Sam library most definitely looks like their answer to Albion. The price looks attractive... I think it would be about $100 less than Albion's price.

Hey, here is a short cue i made with Albion and VSL Woodwinds:

Go internet, go, go, go! Taking soooo long...

Any ideas how well blend with kontakt factory library orchestral sounds ? and/or miroslav philharmonik ?

I can assure you that you're going to want to replace both of those libraries if you are able to purchase Albion. It's on a higher level---

I wish I could have it...

Good know you comment even you dont have it. and i need good solo sounds and maybe somekind quick tool like this.

However Albion sounds better, more natural.

They each have their different strengths. Albion without a doubt sounds fabulous. But OE sounds good as well. Cinematic Strings also sounds fabulous, btw.

You know... that Spitfire has a 30% educational discount? It would still be a lot of money but if you save up for it you would probably have it before you know it.

That would be about $550 with the %30 discount. Wow haha...at least it's not more expensive.
