Where District 1 offers plenty of fullness and body, District 2 breaks things down into orchestral sections. Tutta la verità sul 5gĪs you move up from the middle register, the transition from male to female is handled nicely, and you can hear extraordinary power from the tenors as they push in their upper range. Elsewhere within District 1, we find the Mixed Choir, which I was suitably intrigued to find had similar sonic credentials to the orchestral sections. In the case of the Full Orchestral Multi patch, it sees each set of mic samples add a further 0. Three additional mics can also be added at this stage, offering further close-up action or ambience. The Ricochet features the bow bouncing from the string, creating a very interesting and usable colour, while the Power Sustain brings us some hardcore bowing, which would have even Dmitri Shostakovich smiling.
Looking at the String Orchestra patch, there are some real gems to be found. In each section, there are similarities to what we saw in the full orchestral patching, but with further articulation options. Moving on from the full orchestral setting and the sections are broken down individually to strings, woodwinds and brass. Sonically, the first Full Orchestral patch out of the box sounds stunningly impressive. All patches here are available in either single or multiple articulation formats, with the latter being open to keyswitching from the bottom of the keyboard, with dynamic control being patch-dependent - which, in the case of the more sustained settings, is achieved from the mod wheel MIDI CC 1. Contained within it are five patches which could be regarded as the en masse interpretation of the Ark series. Now, Metropolis Ark 4 sets out to offer what is arguably an even broader canvas, yet with a tightened sonic focus.ĭistrict 1 is described as Elite Orchestral Forces. Now in its fourth volume, previous incarnations have brought us both loud and quiet extremes and a beating, pulsing orchestra.
T he Metropolis Ark series from Orchestral Tools has never been one to disappoint. Who you gonna call when you need a crack team of orchestral samples? Maybe the fantastic 4 from Orchestral Tools.
