Parallel Universe

Big Bang Orchestra: Altair presents a different take on our Synchron full orchestra recordings and is the perfect enhancement to the tutti performances of Big Bang Orchestra: Andromeda. BBO: Altair provides completely new recordings of short and long notes that are played by the individual sections of the orchestra, as well as by all of them together (tutti).

Overview

Section performances of strings, woodwinds, brass, and tutti recordings

Easy switching between various registrations

Preconfigured combinations of different sections

Blend seamlessly with all BBO Packs

Multiple microphone positions, additional close mic positions

Orchestra musicians performing with violins and flutes in a recording studio.

Musicians perform an orchestra in a recording studio, with two men playing upright basses in the foreground and other musicians with a trombone and tuba in the background.

The appeal of this BBO Pack lies in the particular way the tutti performances and the sections of strings, woodwinds, and brass were recorded: In the first pass, each note was played by the entire orchestra. Immediately afterwards, each section played this note with the same phrasing and style. It’s as though the entire orchestra played the notes together, but in fact they didn’t – you have separate recordings of strings, woodwinds, and brass ensembles available that you can combine and orchestrate any way you like.
