The essential orchestra for aspiring composers
At ProjectSAM, we’ve been creating orchestral instruments for over 24 years, pioneering orchestral sampling, innovating in programming, and making our software as easy and fun to use as we possibly can. For Orchestral Essentials, we’ve distilled our experience into a collection that’s designed to meet the needs of a composer with a growing career.
Cut from the cloth of our mainline products, this collection offers full orchestra, string, brass and woodwind ensembles, as well as classical and world percussion instruments. Our Multi instruments also give you access to playable patches that contain more than one element across the keyboard, bringing more inspiration to the composition process.
Native Kontrol Standard
Navigate instruments, browse presets and control parameters directly from your Native Instruments hardware of choice.
Adaptive Sync
Quickly and effortlessly match sampled crescendos, rolls and risers to your project’s tempo.
