Personal Orchestra 5

Personal Orchestra 5 from Garritan is an orchestral sample library that delivers the complete range of orchestral instruments, including strings, brass, woodwinds, percussion, and keyboards. The library is designed to allow the creation of numerous instrument combinations, each capable of playing a separate part. Sections or a complete orchestra can be built one instrument at a time, or pre-configured instrumental combinations can be accessed via the Ensemble Manager.

This new edition continues in the tradition of past versions but with vastly expanded instruments and the offering of new techniques, performance spaces and reverbs, and instrument body resonances. The sampled sound library integrates the high-performance ARIA Player.

• Includes all the major instruments of the orchestra – strings, brass, woodwinds, percussion, and keyboards
• Build an orchestra one instrument at a time, exactly as required – create solos, duos, trios, quartets, chamber groups, ensembles, sections or a full symphony orchestra
• Play divisi and separate lines for each instrument, free from fixed-size section samples
• Each instrument has its own individual character and nuance that can interact with each other just like real players
• Ensemble Manager makes it easy to load pre-configured instrumental combinations
• Powered by the ARIA Player Advanced Instrument Engine
