People who whine "wah this is fake, doesnt sound real" Stop being such dorks, i can bet you that you wouldnt doubt a second that it was real if you heard this in the new Batman movie.
Nice enough, but yet another piece which hides, rather than reveals, exactly the sonic capability of VST or other sampled orchestral instruments, and that's why they are used for films, because you never hear a long enough phrase or theme to judge. Why does no-one ever post a simple 4 part Mozart piece, or more transparent contemporary piece, so we can hear each section with clarity? The answer is that unless you trigger every note with manually manipulated excrutiating detail, the flaws show.
Just a bit off information for the audience off this plugin. This plugin is tailored for professionals. But... the poeple who made this software, also score HUGE hollywood movies. They particularly make soundtracks for trailers, and they are very good at it. The company/band is called "Two steps from hell". Its the same poeple that make music for the movies we watch. That why it sounds so good.
HOLY FUCK!!!! this is really the best orchestral MIDI editing I've ever heard.. but I am really worried about the REAL MUSICIANS that play these instruments and this is their job :-(
@Tharladyn7 I agree the sound is impressive, but when it comes to the real thing, real orchestras will always be recorded, it just sounds better and always will haha.
@dulsesaborchocolate Yeah, I heard that Danny Elfman uses Storm Drum 2, which is another software developed by the same company, so I guess that Elfman might use this program too.
Excellent tool and a brilliant demo but it's so damn expensive, seriously, I could write a score on manuscript paper for £20 and hire a full orchestra for a day for less than it would cost for this gear
You almost need a Super Computer for to use this Program to its utmost; beware, check out the Optimum requirements before you lay out your money on this software. Its awesome but its HUNGRY. CPU and RAM. Needs 64 Bit DAW too.
@Sepharite Either live or EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Platinum, I can't tell the difference in this recording, but since they appear to be using Symphonic Choirs, I'd assume it's Symphonic Orchestra Platinum
@felixneun I think it's a demonstration on how the Hollywood Strings samples can be integrated with other libraries and still sound aesthetically pleasing.
@whatsittoyaaa Hollywood Strings is just strings, the choir is the composer's private sound collection (as well as the brass, woodwinds and percussion)
Brilliant progression and transitions ! Simply awesome ! I have the silver edition but this absolutely blows it out of the water ! My only concern is that it might put traditional musicians out of business ! It's that good !!!
This is as good as it gets when it comes to virtual strings. After that, it's all about proper engineering and proper writing. IE: Proper bow length, bow direction, rosin, vibrato, properly tying your notes together, along with setting your attack, sustain, retain and decay times properly, so as not to violate what a violin can and cannot actually do. That is... if you are shooting for realism as well as fidelity.
all East West vsti's sounds the same only plugins diffrent take East West orcestra gold edition same strings as hollywood haha fuk u East West only the name is good
Does anyone know what the use is of buying the Symphonic Orchestra now? I mean, drums are from SD2, now strings are from Hollywood Strings, choirs are from Symphonic Choirs... so.. what's the use of the orchestra??
Where did the rest of instruments came from??? Isn't this program just about strings??? Thats a full orchestra with chorus and all. What program was used for the rest of the orchestra?? I know chorus was recorded live cause they are saying words.
@miguelriveraibanez This is East West Software. Everything you are hearing is keyboard/ software from East West....Including the Choir. The other programs for the other instruments/ vocals not included in this particular program can be found here. eastwestsamples . com / index . php

According to Thomas Bergersen only Hollwood Strings and percussion are East West. The brass, winds and choir are his custom library. Please stop spreading misinformation, you'll only disappoint people.

"I know chorus was recorded live cause they are saying words."

There are various libraries out now that can have choir sing "words", but this is a custom library by Thomas Bergersen. Same with the brass and winds. Watch out for East West however since they are working on brass, winds and choir which they will be selling just like Hollywood Strings.
why do i feel like the high frequencies are gone as if compressed in 128 kb/s if it's the youtube quality why didn't u upload a better audio quality version?
Anyone knows if this is Eastwest's Symphonic Choirs you hear on the background? you'd say it is but for the Desiderata demo Colin o'Malley used Tonehammers Requiem, and my god that sounds good
Because he has said it several times. Its well known TJ uses private samples and has done for a while. Apparently the percussion in this IS East West Orchestra... personally I'm doubtfull but thats what he said. Right now he still uses his private library... or maybe recently started switched over to some more EW stuff because they are making brass and winds right now. Point is, the brass, woodwinds and choir is definitely not EW.
@cortezforever What kinda parts you need? I have Goliath and SD2. Thinking about investing the money in HS or could I get the same thing in Complete Orchesral Gold
This is so fantastic. Obviously, so much comes from knowing how to use the software. I'm confident someone with skill could create something similar to this using EW Symphonic Orchestra. Brilliant composition.
@iamacomposer What are the major differences between LASS and Hollywood Strings? I'm stuck deciding between the two and I'm curious as to what each of them offers in regards to workflow ability and quality.
Does the hollywood strings collection include any other instruments than the strings? If not, does anyone know what collections is used for the rest of the orchestra and the choir in this sound example?
@iamacomposer I agree with all your statements, except possibly the one about LASS (debatable, IMO). And I actually "ripped" this song from the demo video that was posted awhile back, so apologies for the bad quality. But yes, the website now has many demos of higher quality, so you should all definitely check it out!
@RemovdSande11 , so what you're saying is that you really don't want ot have to put forth much effort to get the most realistic results? LASS has the best solo strings I've heard yet. Yes, it still takes a LITTLE bit of programming chops, but compared to what we had available to us just a few short years ago, I'm WAY impressed!
that is ofcourse very true ... and I am most convinced that within a decade.. ,maybe even sooner, there will be software that sound like a "real" orchestra, and I mean real real ^^
@SuperPawuk The strings still have that fake Eastwest sound! Cinematic strings has the best hollywood sound. Several film composers claim that one can still get closer to the real thing with LASS, I agree but I' m not a fan of the sound. No great composer is raving about hollywood strings. No I don' t live on a mcchicken salary. With a few more updates cinematic strings will shit on it all!
@MrJambone1 I can't argue with you about the awesome quality of CS. Check out their new demo "Passacaglia" if you have the chance. But the reason no one is "raving about hollywood strings" is because it hasn't come out yet...so there's nothing really nothing to 'rave" about, or criticize for that matter. Only when it is actually released will composers get a good sense of what it is capable of.
@MrJambone1 dude, did your pet die on you or are you on prozac? When something new comes out it doesn't mean you should be pissing on it just because you have to, since you bought the other libraries. All strings out there can help you in different ways, and combining them gives you loads of options. Cinematic strings are ok in combination with others but sure as hell not the best. Be pleased all these companies are trying to give us the tools. I'll buy them all, fuck it.
@datisookzo Prozac is not strong enough for me son, my system handles it like it' s vitamin c! I just might get hollywood strings too, just to have several options like you said, so I guess it is a plus that they do not all sound the same. The city counsil won' t allow me to have pets because I always made them shit in my neighbours' yards.
@MrJambone1 Really not! I've downloaded Cinematic Strings for about a week ago and I was surprised of the bad audio quality! The "true legato" sucks. EW Hollywood Strings is way way better!
@YourVisualDesigner ...Wow I completely forgot about these posts... you replied to some old shit. There is nothing wrong with the audio quality of CS you can clearly here it in the demos don' t act like such a HS fanboy pissing on everything else. In the end however I went with Hollywod Strings because it is the most complete one with more articulations than all the others. It enables me to get more realism and make compositions sound like they were performed by a real orchestra!
Because of your ranting I just listened to CS and it doesn't do the trick for me. Like iamacomposer says: it beats lass and definitly vsl in my opinion, or maybe "shit on it all"
I gotta step up and defend Narcoman; nothing can ever truly replace human beings in a room playing together IMO. Although this demo is stunning it ISN'T totally realistic, it definitely has a sound.
OTOH, with the industry being is the state it's in money constraints will win out, the average listener wouldn't really be able to tell (or care) that this demo isn't real. People scorn Cowell but get older I realise I don't want to die poor for the sake of artistic integrity. So live and let live!
theres just one problem with what you said.. you said it's not realistic. but on the contrary it is real recordings.
the art is in how the notes go together, and east west is the closest at getting the most realistic blending of live recordings to where a performace can be reconstructed.
Bullshit... even cinematic strings sound better. Check the demo someone posted on youtube. LASS is still the way to go. This needs its own system that is the biggest dealbreaker. In addition the muted strings are not real recordings but modeled mutes.
When it comes down to it, you're getting a very believable full orchestral performance (as long as you work it right), pre-mastered, for little over 300/400 bucks. I'm about to buy a cello, and that shit is almost 500 bucks for a DECENT one, not even a good one. They're trying, and I commend their attempt, but of course a real orchestra is going to sound better.
@unku LASS is short for L.A. scoring strings. Hollywood strings is actually well over a thousand bucks! LASS slightly less than a thousand. Listen to the demos on their site and you' ll know what the hype is all about. Take care!
@MrJambone1 La shit strings has 1st violins with divisi........but the lame ass developers decided to use same sounds for 2nd violins with a little tech to stop phasing. That sucks! no realism at all! HW strings are separate individual recordings for all divisi of 1st and 2nd violins giving much more realism as each divisi sounds slightly different! n who cares about the stupid ART tool most pro's will want their repetitions to be more unique than straight 8ths 16ths etc etc..
@SuperPawuk Why all the animosity? Are you an unhappy LASS costumer? In any case, you seemed to be quite misinformed. For Hollywood strings, each string section was recorded using different mic positions that emphasized one part of the section over another, and thus it is not "true" divisi (this is arguable). On the other hand, LASS has "true divisi". It is essentially five libraries built into one: "a First Chair library, 1/4 Divisi A, 1/4 Divisi B, 1/2 Divisi C and a Full Section library".
@SuperPawuk Furthermore, " all LASS patches and programming are consistent from the first chair to the full mix. If apart sounds right using the first chair patch, the same sequence will sound right with the full ensemble — no MIDI reprogramming required."
narcoman2 you really need to get out of your self opinionated arse, when you produce some music of real worth and substance then your words might carry some weight!
Damn! I was flying a dragon, fighting the witches in Medieval age for five minutes. Doesn't feel good to be pulled back to reality.

Nice enough, but yet another piece which hides, rather than reveals, exactly the sonic capability of VST or other sampled orchestral instruments, and that's why they are used for films, because you never hear a long enough phrase or theme to judge. Why does no-one ever post a simple 4 part Mozart piece, or more transparent contemporary piece, so we can hear each section with clarity? The answer is that unless you trigger every note with manually manipulated excrutiating detail, the flaws show.

The 4 best quality products:
-EDIROL ORCHESTRAL [light orchestral software(computerized, and sometimes studio-recorded)]
-LA SCORING STRINGS [heavy orchestral software(all studio-recorded)
-PROJECTSAM SYMPHOBIA [heavy orchestral software(studio-recorded, and sometimes computerized)]
-EastWest HOLLYWOOD STRINGS [heavier orchestral software than LA or SYMPHOBIA (ALL studio recorded)
THEY ARE THE BEST QUALITY PRODUCTS THAT BUYERS CAN BUY!

@iamacomposer IMO VSL still beats this in sound quality. I don't know what LASS is though?
ScorchinBeats 1 year ago
@iamacomposer I agree with all your statements, except possibly the one about LASS (debatable, IMO). And I actually "ripped" this song from the demo video that was posted awhile back, so apologies for the bad quality. But yes, the website now has many demos of higher quality, so you should all definitely check it out!

shut up mate...please dont say shit!! i bet that even if u are using LASS u cant sound this real... so shut your face !!

it DOES sound good, but to get it this good you have to be an awesome programmer with a nice effect rack.
Also, I am way more interested in realistic Solo Strings, but thats way more difficult. Even the LASS solo strings arent convincing.

@RemovdSande11 check out east west gypsy, that solo string in the demo is quite nice :)

@RemovdSande11 , so what you're saying is that you really don't want ot have to put forth much effort to get the most realistic results? LASS has the best solo strings I've heard yet. Yes, it still takes a LITTLE bit of programming chops, but compared to what we had available to us just a few short years ago, I'm WAY impressed!

that is ofcourse very true ... and I am most convinced that within a decade.. ,maybe even sooner, there will be software that sound like a "real" orchestra, and I mean real real ^^

@SuperPawuk The strings still have that fake Eastwest sound! Cinematic strings has the best hollywood sound. Several film composers claim that one can still get closer to the real thing with LASS, I agree but I' m not a fan of the sound. No great composer is raving about hollywood strings. No I don' t live on a mcchicken salary. With a few more updates cinematic strings will shit on it all!

@MrJambone1 I can't argue with you about the awesome quality of CS. Check out their new demo "Passacaglia" if you have the chance. But the reason no one is "raving about hollywood strings" is because it hasn't come out yet...so there's nothing really nothing to 'rave" about, or criticize for that matter. Only when it is actually released will composers get a good sense of what it is capable of.

@MrJambone1 dude, did your pet die on you or are you on prozac? When something new comes out it doesn't mean you should be pissing on it just because you have to, since you bought the other libraries. All strings out there can help you in different ways, and combining them gives you loads of options. Cinematic strings are ok in combination with others but sure as hell not the best. Be pleased all these companies are trying to give us the tools. I'll buy them all, fuck it.

@datisookzo Prozac is not strong enough for me son, my system handles it like it' s vitamin c! I just might get hollywood strings too, just to have several options like you said, so I guess it is a plus that they do not all sound the same. The city counsil won' t allow me to have pets because I always made them shit in my neighbours' yards.
MrJambone1 1 year ago
@MrJambone1 Really not! I've downloaded Cinematic Strings for about a week ago and I was surprised of the bad audio quality! The "true legato" sucks. EW Hollywood Strings is way way better!

@YourVisualDesigner ...Wow I completely forgot about these posts... you replied to some old shit. There is nothing wrong with the audio quality of CS you can clearly here it in the demos don' t act like such a HS fanboy pissing on everything else. In the end however I went with Hollywod Strings because it is the most complete one with more articulations than all the others. It enables me to get more realism and make compositions sound like they were performed by a real orchestra!

@MrJambone1 I'm not pissing CS but I just don't think the audio quality is that good.

Because of your ranting I just listened to CS and it doesn't do the trick for me. Like iamacomposer says: it beats lass and definitly vsl in my opinion, or maybe "shit on it all"

I gotta step up and defend Narcoman; nothing can ever truly replace human beings in a room playing together IMO. Although this demo is stunning it ISN'T totally realistic, it definitely has a sound.
OTOH, with the industry being is the state it's in money constraints will win out, the average listener wouldn't really be able to tell (or care) that this demo isn't real. People scorn Cowell but get older I realise I don't want to die poor for the sake of artistic integrity. So live and let live!

theres just one problem with what you said.. you said it's not realistic. but on the contrary it is real recordings.
the art is in how the notes go together, and east west is the closest at getting the most realistic blending of live recordings to where a performace can be reconstructed.
and they're only gonna get better and better

Bullshit... even cinematic strings sound better. Check the demo someone posted on youtube. LASS is still the way to go. This needs its own system that is the biggest dealbreaker. In addition the muted strings are not real recordings but modeled mutes.
MrJambone1 2 years ago
When it comes down to it, you're getting a very believable full orchestral performance (as long as you work it right), pre-mastered, for little over 300/400 bucks. I'm about to buy a cello, and that shit is almost 500 bucks for a DECENT one, not even a good one. They're trying, and I commend their attempt, but of course a real orchestra is going to sound better.
What's LASS btw?
unku 1 year ago
@unku LASS is short for L.A. scoring strings. Hollywood strings is actually well over a thousand bucks! LASS slightly less than a thousand. Listen to the demos on their site and you' ll know what the hype is all about. Take care!

@MrJambone1 La shit strings has 1st violins with divisi........but the lame ass developers decided to use same sounds for 2nd violins with a little tech to stop phasing. That sucks! no realism at all! HW strings are separate individual recordings for all divisi of 1st and 2nd violins giving much more realism as each divisi sounds slightly different! n who cares about the stupid ART tool most pro's will want their repetitions to be more unique than straight 8ths 16ths etc etc..
SuperPawuk 1 year ago
@SuperPawuk Why all the animosity? Are you an unhappy LASS costumer? In any case, you seemed to be quite misinformed. For Hollywood strings, each string section was recorded using different mic positions that emphasized one part of the section over another, and thus it is not "true" divisi (this is arguable). On the other hand, LASS has "true divisi". It is essentially five libraries built into one: "a First Chair library, 1/4 Divisi A, 1/4 Divisi B, 1/2 Divisi C and a Full Section library".
whitnallswimmer 1 year ago
@SuperPawuk Furthermore, " all LASS patches and programming are consistent from the first chair to the full mix. If apart sounds right using the first chair patch, the same sequence will sound right with the full ensemble — no MIDI reprogramming required."
whitnallswimmer 1 year ago
@sidesauce With all this programs I always say the same... If you can record a real orchestra do it, but this program will do the job.
Recording a real orchestra would cost 1,000,000 times more, but the sound improvement won't be 1,000,000 times more.
It's a simple equation:
PERFORMANCE = QUALITY / COST
Of course, if you can afford recording an orchestra do it the old way.
