Vienna Symphonic Library – Vienna Smart Orchestra Expansion Pack (Download)

The Vienna Symphonic Library Vienna Smart Orchestra Expansion Pack is for owners of Vienna Smart Orchestra who want to add more instruments to the Solo category of the software.

The expansion to Vienna Smart Orchestra introduces the following new instruments and articulations:

• Legato strings: viola ensemble and cello ensemble
• Legato woodwinds: piccolo, English horn, bass clarinet, and bassoon
• Single notes: harp, celesta, and timpani

The instruments are available separately to be played as lead instruments, either in Pad + Solo mode for adding melodies with your right hand, while ensemble accompaniments are played with your left hand, or in Full Range mode, where you can play solo instruments in their full natural ranges.

Instantiating the expanded Vienna Smart Orchestra on several tracks, you can create complex polyphonic string arrangements. Enrich your compositions by adding lyrical woodwind solos in several new colors, or create a variety of combinations like clarinet + bassoon, or flute + piccolo, in unison or octaves.

As with the string and wind instruments, the harp and the celesta can be used in combination with the accompanying orchestra or as individual instruments with their full range of six octaves and four-and-a-half octaves, respectively. The timpani provides a high level of detail with eight velocity layers from ppp to ff, and four variants per note and velocity layer.
