Low End Orchestra

{See video at top of page}

The Low End Orchestra re-imagines the contemporary scoring orchestra by combining three key elements: A bass-heavy sound; symmetry and spatial movement; and a wealth of microphone options for atmos and surround mixing. Recorded at AIR Studios Lyndhurst with some of the UK's top players, this is a sound that inspires new ideas, and a toolset to help you realize them professionally.

The Low End Orchestra is all about sound moving within a space—we re-positioned the instrument sections to create a new, symmetrical orchestral layout, and created sounds that move from left to right and back on the X axis, and from front to back to front on the Y axis.
