Garritan Personal Orchestra 3rd Edition combines a comprehensive orchestral sample library with Native Instruments'
state-of-the-art KONTAKT 2 player plug-in.
Following the award-winning Garritan
Orchestral Strings, Gary Garritan has created a complete 'Orchestra for Every
Musician' that is elegant, easy-to-use and great value. Personal Orchestra second edition will run on Mac OS and Windows
platforms, either as a standalone program or as a plug-in (supporting VST, DXi,
RTAS, and OS X AudioUnits). Personal Orchestra instruments will also load into
KONTAKT, Native Instruments' flagship sampler. The entire orchestra can be
loaded on a single PC or laptop and is designed to run completely in
RAM.
Not just an Orchestra
Although Personal Orchestra contains
samples of all the major instruments in a symphony orchestra, it also includes
a Steinway® Concert Grand Piano, a Stradivarius violin,
Wurlitzer Organ and Venus concert harps, Haynes flutes, Heckel bassoons, a
Mustel celeste, a Rudolf von Beckerath concert pipe organ, a harpsichord, and
many other exquisite instruments. It even includes multiple solo instruments.
Everything one needs to create orchestrations is included.
Unique
Feature: "Ensemble Maker"
Personal Orchestra lets you
construct ensembles and sections of different sizes from specially designed solo
instruments, each comprising a unique set of samples. This feature allows you to
build duos, trios, quartets and larger ensembles and sections as you see
fit.
Garritan Personal Orchestra 3rd Edition is Easy as 1-2-3
It allows you to
create realistic sounding orchestral music quickly and easily, right "out of the
box." No confusing lists of articulations, no complicated sets of controls and no
steep learning curve. Just load an instrument and play. Personal Orchestra makes
it easy to express your musical ideas in record time. And it's compact enough to
run on a laptop computer for the musician on the
go.
GPO3 has received these Press Reviews
"There is so much great content
in GPO that we just don't have the room here to detail it all, but we feel sure
it will be a huge hit with budding composers who want truly authentic sounds.
With Personal Orchestra, Gary Garritan has not only triumphed in providing a
pro-sounding sample library that covers an entire orchestra, he has also
succeeded in adding performance elements that give it an extra dimension. Given
GPO's price, these are pretty impressive feats." - Computer Music
"While GPO has an obvious market
for beginners, it also offers a degree of professional appeal for anyone looking
to sketch out orchestral arrangements with a single computer. For composers and
arrangers chasing deadlines, and musicians who like to get fast results, GPO
could be the perfect solution." - Sound on Sound
