Avoid

Did combat with it for one weekend, completely down to chance if it works or not. Avoid. Shame, because the sounds are decent. It can in theory integrate with Logic. IK Multimedia and Spitfire's stuff does, but this software is random when it works or not. Avoid. Shame cause the sounds are good.

big software, long installation time

The Symphonic Choir is a plug in that I didn’t want to invest it. Just because at the early stages of my musical compositions I overlooked the importance of having some really good choir samples and sounds ready to go. Most of my other softwares like the Kontakt bundel and some other vst’s have a lot of chior sounds in them. Usually I only use choir to fatten up some of my music, I never use it to stand out . So I though that I could just get by with using some of the cheaper choir patches that came with other vst and plug ins. But when I got Symphonc choir all of my thoughts changed, there is a big difference with the preset banks in most vst’s and patches, when you have symphonic choir...…

So I though that I could just get by with using some of the cheaper choir patches that came with other vst and plug ins. But when I got Symphonc choir all of my thoughts changed, there is a big difference with the preset banks in most vst’s and patches, when you have symphonic choir you really have full conrol over the sound and its really almost like having a live choir on hand to use in your usic.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

It did take some time to really understand and get into depth of the program but after you practice and mess around or read the manual it wont be hard anymore. The thing that I hated the most about it is that it takes forever to load and install. Its sort of too long, my computer is fast and it still took a long time, I cant remember how many gigs it was to install I just remember it taking a long time.

OVERALL OPINION

Yes, you should buy it. The price isn’t as bad as some of the other stuff from EastWest or else I wouldn’t have got it, But its affordable and worth the buy, and installing it is also worth the wait. Because it will take some time to install, you will have to get up from your computer and do something else while you wait.

No I is not even have to read the manual, all features are visible, you can not go wrong!

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Motherboard: ASUS K8N
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3000 +
RAM: 1GB (soon because these three instruments are very hungry ...)
HDD: 120GB for the system, 200GB for library

on this configuration c is correct, it is advisable to have at least 2GB of RAM.
very good performance on all points.
this configuration is perfect, just not enough RAM.

OVERALL OPINION

I used the last 1 month.
+ the ergonomics, the sound was breathtaking.
the -: not many effects, the reverbs are limited but it is enough to get a good reverb as an insert and c is good ...!
c is the first time that I use that brand.
The quality / price is right ... of course c is very expensive, 780euros n is not given to everyone ...
but if c was a remake I would do without hesitation!

Installation trouble-free and trouble-free operation. It takes a big configuration:
at least ATHLON 3000 +, 3GB DDR, and especially a big hard disk of 38Go Libaire

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Trouble-free operation. It takes a big configuration:

OVERALL OPINION

High quality samples.
The major problem and in my opinion ruins everything, when I tried this software is that it is impossible to perform the music of Baroque and Renaissance. This problem is a poor...…
