Solid State Symphony is an orchestral simulation that also includes automated features like a Gated Pad, 2 sequencer-controlled pitch-modulated synth elements, our often disturbing Padscapes, and simple bass and percussion elements.
The orchestra sounds were modeled using analogue synth waveforms for a rich and warm sound.
A new make-over has given this unique library a clean look, with a mixing board to control the orchestra's sections, from level to velocity and key range limits, and transposition.
Solid State Symphony is meant to be played in real time, reacting to your touch by bringing in different layers and automated effects at different key velocities, and is great for sketching out ideas. Use it with other orchestral libraries to add richness and power.
The animated Orchestra Display gives you immediate feedback about which layers are playing, which is helpful when setting the velocity controls to fit your style. Plus, to be honest, it is just fun to watch while you play.
Whether you write orchestral, prog, pop, or hip hop, please have a look at Solid State Symphony.
If you have the full version of Kontakt this is a no brainer at $59 USD IMHO. You can use either a usable full orchestra or just the string section for backing tracks. There are no solo instruments here.
I had this program since it first came out. It is used in many of my songs.
Doc-take it easy John this is just a sharp scalpel. It will not cut deep so don't worry. Me-I'm not John Doc-I know, I am!
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
Very impressive indeed! But, I'm confused...they also talk about Solid State Strings...is this included, is it an add-on, will there be Solid State Brass and more?
Looking through their YouTube channel, they have some great demos of their other products...equally impressive...love that acoustic guitar package. And the price is right!

Solid State Strings comes with the program. It is the orchestra strings only.
I don't know if there will be separate Solid State Brass but brass and woodwinds are included in this software. The program is velocity sensitive. That is a soft touch yields only the strings and harder touch yields strings, brass and woodwinds. The velocity ranges are adjustable and very sensitive so there are varying degrees of strings only and of the full orchestra.

This really is a VERY useful orchestral instrument. I would have saved a lot of money if I had come across this first but, even though this thing sounds great by itself (not a stand-alone---you need a full version [not player] of Kontakt), combined it easily makes virtually anything else sound better or spectacular. I have no problem recommending this---especially for the price. If somebody knows of anything that beats this for the price, versatility, and ease of use, please share the info!
I listened to the video demo. I understand it is meant to be played in real time. For me, that will never happen (on a keyboard), but will this play a written MIDI score?

Hi Mario, I just saw this post. Went to the web site and it says that it comes with the full version of Kontakt 4, Im assuming that it is enough to run the program, right?
