Symphonic Band Instruments List

One of the great things about MOTU Symphonic Instruments is that it runs on G4 processor, and even on 256MB of RAM. Consequently, on the even the cheapest of the modern laptops (just like my 2MB Mac Air Intel i5) it works smoothly and loads all the instruments instantly. To me it's the best thing ever to run software release in 2006 on a 2012 computer, because it just runs great. And the sounds are simply breathtaking. Even the concert piano is mind blowing, really lending itself for classical piano playing in real time from my digital piano keyboard. And the price could not be better with B&H special discount offers. I took advantage of the discount, and I am a very happy camper now. Oh, and the authorization process with iLok is very good. I installed MOTU Symphonic Instruments on two computers, and to run it, I simply insert the iLok USB dongle, and voila. It's simply great.

The Synchron interface is SO much easier to use (than the former Vienna Symphonic Instruments plugin). Sound quality and playability are impeccable.

I use these for portraits and most recently to take portraits of a high school symphonic band. The strobes were at full power due to the distance and the umbrella provided a very nice, uniform light over the whole band. For portrait work they provide great catch lights, and when used with a diffusion panel, a soft even light. I really like how the spokes are hidden by the inner cover. I would diffidently recommend this product.

Excellent clarity for a 100 member symphonic band recording mic. Very pleased with the purchase.

Listen to jazz & Symphonic music. Great sound

Right up front...I am NOT an audio professional, nor even particularly an audiophile. I do not have sophisticated playback equipment. That said, I am a professional symphonic musician with more than a half century of experience. To my ears, on my equipment, these sound a little biased towards the high end, but they are sturdily built, well balanced one-to-the-other, and not particularly fussy about exact placement. I find them more than adequate, and far more than I expected for this sort of money. The shock-mounts, windshields, and hard case are welcome extras. In short, knowing what I know now, I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

Great replacement lamp for all of our instruments.

Haven't used them yet , but am sure they will securely hold my instruments down .

What else can be said about the 57? Instruments, vocals, everything.
