Originals Orchestra is the perfect starting point for anyone taking their first steps writing with an orchestral library. A comprehensive collection of five essential libraries featuring strings, brass, woodwinds, percussion, pads and piano – all you need to instantly create cinematic scores, rich sonic compositions and modern sounding productions.
