Hi people!
I’m looking for the best hardware gear that gives me a warm orchestra strings and a real good choir with maybe 3 core patches options (ahh, ohh, hum).
I’ve heard the scores from Titanic and Armageddon movies, is it really done by kurzweils? So I’m thinking about a PC2R with the orchestral expansion installed...
How about Rolands new orchestral exp.? Does it cover my needs?

Thnx!

The Titanic and Armageddon rumor isn't truth?

Well, maybe, if they had not enough fonds to hire a real ochestra...
I think, every pro composer uses live ochestra for his music, in high budget movies...

To I think, this myth is Busted :biggrin:

While I'm helping other people, you make "smart-ass" comments.
So actually, you are making fool out of yourself - not out of me.

If you have nothing useful to say, just shut up.
And if you do not like my opinion, shut up twice. Or say something rational.
How old are you? 10 years old?

Actually, age doesn't really matter.

Yeah, older people can have the minds of 10y olds :wink:

And I'll have to agree with what ReaPeR suggested, software is the best for that. The Kurzs have nice sounding orchestra stuff but not convincing choir sounds and they can't beat the sample libraries mentioned before. Rolands I dislike in general but an owner could help you more although they definately can't beat the software above either.
Of course that is if you are interested in these solely because the above are quite expensive - altough you really get what you pay for :wink: .
