Palette Orchestral Series by Red Room Audio

The concept for Palette – Melodics is simple. The RRA team studied the scores of several of their favorite classical and modern film music composers (which was a most enjoyable exercise!) and selected 18 of the most evocative melody-carrying combinations and instruments. They then recorded a soaring violin section playing octaves, regal trumpets with horns, playful flutes & piccolo, creepy bass clarinet & contrabassoon octaves, a gigantic and downright frightening low strings & low brass ensemble and many others. They felt it was also important to include soloists since they are so often used to deliver a melody, so they recorded 6 of those as well. 17 of the 18 instruments in the library have true legato (the exception being their Trombones & Tuba).

“Palette – Orchestral FX” is an aleatoric FX virtual instrument for media composers and songwriters. The RRA team were fortunate to work with three outstanding composers from around the globe (George Strezov, Jongnic Bontemps and Tristan Noon) who collaborated to orchestrate a slew of useful FX for strings, brass, woodwinds and choir in 6 categories – Short, Long, Sting, Texture, Rise and Fall. Many were recorded by all 4 sections, allowing for easy layering. In total there are over 2,400 unique performances that you can use to provide instant drama, emotion, character and life to your music. Load up one of the 4 section patches and keyswitch through the categories to perform individual samples from your keyboard.

“Palette – Runs & Arps” is the most in-depth virtual instrument for real recorded (not scripted) orchestral scales and arpeggios ever assembled. The RRA team felt there was simply no better way to capture the emotion and subtle nuances of these unique articulations than to record them in their entirety, versus trying to cleverly combine samples to produce artificial phrases. Therefore the RRA team went the extra mile and recorded both strings and woodwinds ensembles playing scales in 6 primary modes – Major, Natural Minor, Harmonic Minor, Melodic Minor, Whole Tone and Chromatic – each with up to 13 variations. There are also 20 kinds of arpeggios in 4 modes – Major, Minor, Diminished and Augmented. Every run/arp has 2 round robins …
