2 – The Free Orchestra by Project Sam
My first high end orchestral sample library was actually Symphobia 1, back in…2008 I think. I fell in love with the warm, close sound, and great variation in the sample library.
Now Project Sam has a series of free orchestral instruments based mainly on the sounds from Symphobia. And even if I already have that product, it can be great to have a dedicated instrument with low footprint on CPU and RAM, while still sounding great. Here are some of my favorites:
- Tutti Hits
- Sordino Violins
- Heroic Horns
- Power Strike
- Short Strings
3 – Layers by Orchestral Tools
Orchestral Tools have some of the most high end orchestral sample libraries on the market. So getting access to a free product from them, which still has the same professional quality recordings captured at Teldex Scoring Stage in Berlin, and made available in their SINE player is truly a gift! You get chords, sustains and staccatos of:
- Full Orchestra
- Strings
- Brass

Now of course there are plenty more free sample libraries of orchestral instruments out there. But I recommend you to choose the best of the best, if you are going to use free tools. It’s a great way to start out, and even complement your existing tool box of orchestral sounds. Have fun, and keep composing music! =)
