What is most impressive about this feature is that ProjectSAM have recorded all the samples at various tempos so the technology will intelligently select the closest sample to match your tempo, this means there are no low quality time-stretched samples (although this is also an option if desired and can be useful for creating some interesting stretched sound design textures).Īdaptive Sync meets the needs of composers who are often on very tight time schedules and spend too long moving these effects around manually. It also ensures that the most exciting moment of the effect (known as a ‘hit point’) happens exactly where you want it. Easy Quantisation with Adaptive SyncĪdaptive Sync allows effects such as crescendos, rolls and risers to easily quantise and sync to a specified number of bars, beats or seconds. The instrument loaded up in the screenshot above features a string crescendo, which takes advantage of one of the most exciting features included in Pandora: Adaptive Sync.
Now let’s dive into the interface and take a closer look at some of the new features!Īs you can see the interface is divided into 4 modules though some of these are known as ‘variable modules’ which means their function will change depending on the selected instrument the first module on the left is a good example of this. These folders will make more sense as I run through the interface and will each be discussed in detail when I get to the necessary section. Combos are one of the seven instrument folders that can be found inside Pandora’s Kontakt Library structure, the rest of which can be seen on the left-hand side of the GUI shot below. Perfect to manipulate the sound easily on the fly. The effects are covered across strings, woodwind, brass, piano and percussion, and thanks to Pandora’s Combos feature you’re able to layer sections of the orchestra together whilst having individual controls for each on one page.

The library features a hugely detailed collection of every orchestral effect in the book, plus way more - risers, falls, pulses, clusters and swells to name a few! This makes Pandora a very strong orchestral tool these decorative effects can be applied to any project that feels like it’s lacking excitement and instantly bring excitement and movement. Let’s first discuss the focus point of S4 Pandora: orchestral effects. Here we’ll take an in-depth look at Pandora, covering some of the new features and providing a general first impression. And this week, ProjectSAM announced the exciting release of their fourth addition to the line – Symphobia 4 Pandora. But at the heart of their collection, lies the Symphobia series. Over the years we’ve seen the release of great Kontakt libraries such as the Orchestral Essential series, True Strike, and Swing. From the get-go ProjectSAMmade a name for themselves with their signature multi-mic recording setups, a technique that wasn’t being used in sampling much around the time.
Their mission is to create the warmest cinematic sounds possible for TV, film and gaming composers to access playing techniques, instrument combos and cinematic effects that you won’t find anywhere else. ProjectSAM Symphobia 4 Pandora: the latest in a world leading collection of cinematic sample librariesįor almost 20 years, virtual instrument and sample library manufacturer, ProjectSAM, has been a leading name in the world of orchestral sampling.
