Aperture Orchestra

From an intimate strings to a rapturous symphony

We have harnessed the power of four different orchestral sections to release the beastly power of strings, brass, and woodwind. Move seamlessly from a quintet of solo players performing at the softest level, right up to a full symphonic orchestra playing at full pelt — all in the same instrument. Featuring 30 essential articulations, the library ~6GB enables you to achieve new levels of expression by controlling both dynamics and the number of players simultaneously, giving you incredible focus, texture, and magnitude — an imagined aperture in sound.
