A creator of Stuff
Hi Peeps,
It was a toss up whether to put this post here or the noob sub forum, so, as I think this is sample/library based, I opted for here.
I am hoping to get into orchestral library stuff, which I will "fuse" with my electronic creations somehow.
I do not have any orchestral libraries at this time and I do not have full Kontakt.
For the future I am seriously considering the SA BBCSO library. But before I even think of parting with nearly £700, I could do with getting some hands on experience with articulations and key switches. I don't even know what key switches are... I'm assuming it is a MIDI message that is sent to a VST to select something or other.
So, the question is, is there a library available, preferable Spitfire Audio, that would at least allow me to learn about using articulations that isn't going to cost me an arm and a leg? A single instrument library would suffice, I think. Preferably strings.
Is there such a thing?
Understandably, you cannot download a sample based instrument to demo for a couple of weeks, like you can with non-sample based instruments.
I have LABS, but that is very simple indeed, with only volume and dynamics control (generally).
I have Noire... That is "just" piano, so even though you may be able to control the pedals, it won't give me any idea what it is like to get something "reasonable" from a violin, for example.
Budget wise I am thinking of around £100
cheers
