Included with Personal Orchestra 5, the ARIA Player is a state-of-the-art, user-friendly sample library player. This software provides specially-tailored acoustic programming that has been designed to reproduce the sounds of actual instruments and impart expressive control of those sounds. ARIA Player also features new updates for Personal Orchestra 5, making it easier than ever to load virtual instrument sounds.
''... Garritan Personal Orchestra offers everything you need to get started with computer-based orchestration straight right out of the box… A thoroughly comprehensive orchestral library which omits no instruments of note, and throws in some rare ones… despite its modest price, this library features some of the best sampled woodwinds I have heard… its samples are well chosen, versatile and expressive.''
... this intelligent orchestral package may well buck that trend; its affordable price, comprehensive nature and user-friendly attitude are sure to attract many musicians… For composers and arrangers chasing deadlines, and musicians who like to get fast results, GPO could be the perfect solution… buy it now, before someone puts the price up.'' - Sound on Sound.
''The biggest addition, though, is a significant chunk of the original Garritan Orchestral Strings library, comprising a vast array of sonically consistent articulations, both as individual and key-switched patches, and ranging from solo instrument and small sections (two to six players), to much bigger ensembles and a full orchestral string section. Throw in first and second violins and you have the sort of sonic flexibility that’s often lacking in string libraries at this price point.''
''Overall, version 5 continues the software’s tradition of value and flexibility, and is a superb option for the thrifty producer looking for quality orchestral sounds in a flexible, easy-to-use package.'' - See the full review from the July 2016 issue. - Computer Music; Performance Award, Value Award
Please Note: A MIDI interface may be required if you are using a MIDI keyboard. The ability to assign controllers within your keyboard, music program or sequencer is recommended along with high-quality speakers/headphones.
The Garritan Personal Orchestra 5 sound library is AAX, VST, and AU compatible, and is powered by the ARIA Player. There’s no need to purchase a separate sampler.
