Tonka « austere and a bit dated but still relevant »
Published on 03/23/12 at 00:39Installation and implementation: ok
Failure to me is the use of Kontakt player, which to me is always a problem ... I would probably take my time to learn, but I've never found intuitive. That said, it's a classic that "everyone uses" so the pb comes perhaps from me
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
no bp, lightweight software
OVERALL OPINION
Where it is fishing a little sound, it is not flattering or very large as in some banks where current when playing a single note was already in the emotion that flows alone ... meaning there is a bit austere software .. and it must be said, a bit overwhelmed. The sound alone is certainly fairly realistic, but not necessarily sexy.
In my opinion this is a plus for the composition as it is not fooled by the sound and you have to get in writing how to make it sound, which I think is a very good thing if we want to play music by real instruments.
on the other hand, if you want to do a complete and final prod, it may sound a bit small. If that's the intimate, it may stick, but if you want the Hollywood's going to be just.
Against by the sounds, as I said above, are realistic and tasteful, and joints, and many relevant.
Personally, what I do, is to use GPO sounds of "front" in the mix by re-inflating the set when needed by doubling sounds with more realistic and less than I otherwise , like tablecloths ... I noticed that even synthetic sounds mixed far behind can give an overall sound very acoustique.Je also sometimes amused myself with doubling sounds mélotrons and the result is very interesting, "organic".
So it's usable, including the final, provided they are willing to spend some time and have no other "strings" to his bow to overcome the shortcomings. That said, when comparing the price of GPO to the banks orchestral inordinate you are doing today, we say that this little software is not necessarily so beyond that.
If not in the same genre, with perhaps a little more scope but within a reasonable price range it there's also home Philarmonik IK Multimedia. I also, and with those two, I'm pretty shielded to face anything orchestral.
