Vienna Symphonic Library releases Big Bang Orchestra: Altair

The Vienna Symphonic Library has released a new addition to their Big Bang Orchestra. Big Bang Orchestra: Altair is an enhancement and alternative to VSL's Big Bang Orchestra: Andromeda, with short and long notes performed by the entire orchestra as well as by separate instrument groups of strings, woodwinds, and brass. Here's what they say:

Big Bang Orchestra: Altair presents a different take on Vienna's Synchron full orchestra recordings and is the perfect enhancement to the tutti performances of Big Bang Orchestra: Andromeda. BBO: Altair provides completely new recordings of short and long notes that are played by the individual sections of the orchestra, as well as by all of them together (tutti).

The appeal of this BBO Pack lies in the particular way the tutti performances and the sections of strings, woodwinds, and brass were recorded: In the first pass, each note was played by the entire orchestra. Immediately afterwards, each section played this note with the same phrasing and style.

Users can switch between the various registrations in the Vienna Synchron Player that offers the tutti patch, the individual patches of strings, woodwinds, and brass, as well as combinations of strings/woodwinds, strings/brass, and woodwinds/brass. They are designed to mix and match perfectly, and with the corresponding mixer presets they also blend seamlessly with the performances of BBO: Andromeda, as well as all the other Big Bang Orchestra Packs.

Intro Price: $71 (Reg. $104).

The company offers all 26 previously existing Big Bang Orchestra Packs at their original introductory prices during the month of February, 2022.
