Symphobia III: Lumina goes in a completely new direction, offering entirely new playable ensembles and textures. WITH SYMPHOBIA AND SYMPHOBIA 2, PROJECTSAM EXPLORED THE HEAVIER SIDE OF ORCHESTRA TO HELP YOU THRILL DIRECTORS AND AUDIENCES AROUND THE WORLD.AND NOW, A NEW STORY UNFOLDS.Featuring full orchestra, choir, smaller ensembles and a wide range of guest instruments, LUMINA dives into the world of fantasy, mystery and animation, adding depth and delicacy to your musical palette. Based on more recordings than ever before, this third volume in the SYMPHOBIA series is ProjectSAM’s most ambitious release yet.ProjectSAM is well-known for its ensemble recording concept, and LUMINA trumps this with even finer arrangements. The warmth and beauty of orchestra and choir performing together has been captured in stunning, playable ensembles.
Moreover, LUMINA is packed with superbly orchestrated textures covering the full spectrum of fantasy and mystery. Refined with grand piano, harp and percussion, these recordings are truly luminous.LUMINA’s solo and guest instruments range from legato woodwinds, such as oboe and clarinet, to a beautifully sampled celtic harp, tin whistle. A full bell tower! The library also pays homage to the playful world of cartoons with dedicated ensembles and phrases for careful tiptoeing and tongue-in-cheek suspense. Of course you will find ProjectSAM´s popular DYSTOPIA section, too, with all-new sound design based on LUMINA’s samples.LUMINA is a journey of inspiration. As for each note you play, three more will spring to mind.LUMINA IS ABOUT STORYTELLINGMultis are a much cherished feature of the SYMPHOBIA series. LUMINA builds on this concept by combining ensembles and instruments into thematic ‘Stories’.Using clever keyboard mapping and controller assignments, Stories give you numerous musical features on one keyboard − all within a single Kontakt track.
In this way, LUMINA’s ensembles, solo instruments and textures all take part in a bigger Story.Elements within a Story can be individually purged from RAM, or instantly muted using assigned mute keys. Also, the Elements tab allows you to tweak each element separately.Stories are great sources of inspiration, and useful starting points for a new track or arrangement. Because of the many different musical elements and well-thoughout controllers, they work great for live situations too, such as a theater show or songwriter performance.LUMINA’S MICROPHONESSYMPHOBIA and SYMPHOBIA 2 offer two microphone sets: Close and Stage. These were actually mixdowns of a number of microphone positions, including the Wide microphone setup.In LUMINA, the recorded microphone positions have been split into three fully separate channels named Direct, Ambient and Wide.
Direct: a mix of spot mics, close to the instruments. Ambient: stereo pair located behind the conductor’s spot.
Project Sam Symphobia Manual
Wide: 2 microphones at the very left and right sides of the orchestraBy default, all 3 mic channels are loaded and activated. The LUMINA interface allows you to individually purge them, reducing the instrument´s RAM footprint by 1/3rd or 2/3rds.MICROPHONE CROSS-FADERThe microphone cross-fader allows you to smoothly morph between the Close and Stage ‘preset mixes’ of the three individual mic channels. To illustrate: in Close position, the Direct mic channel is fully open, Ambient is closed and Wide is slightly open. Half-way, all three mic channels are partly open. In Stage position, the Direct mic channel is closed, Ambient is fully open and Wide is significantly open.
Excerpt: Grand finaleAll in all: A very specialized library, and a good choice for any movie, soundtrack or stock library composer, especially if you already have some string orchestra library, as Lumina offers the whole spectrum of instruments and sounds that you will need to cover all movie genres and really unmissable if your aim is to compose some music for a fantasy or mystery movie. Those genres will be always popular, so I’m sure that ProjectSAM will not go out of a business. The overall quality is top-notch, the same as comes with all ProjectSAM products, so the only dilemma that you could have regarding this library is: Do you need those specific libraries compiled for those specific niches or not?
It is up to you.By A ArsovStories that Lumina can tell us are affordable for €849 EUR or $1099 USD (not for every pocket, I know) and will eat up 39 GB of your hard disk. Available through the ProjectSAM home page or through the Bestservice.de.P.S. Two days before the release date of our issue I got a free Lumina update with 7 GB of additional material. There’s a new Stories “chapter”, now 16 in a total. The update includes an option to split the instruments into various groups inside the textures, so now we can use only string, choir or any other section inside any texture.
There are also some new textures added. All in all, excellent library has become even better. Nice one, Project SAM.

A unique application of the legato concept applied on chords - Orchestrator creates a deep and expressive symphonic sound with relatively little effort- Music Tech MagazineProjectSAM is excited to announce Symphobia Colours: a brand-new library series that expands the world of Symphobia. Building on the Symphobia concept, Symphobia Colours brings you fresh sounds in smaller packages. Two exciting new volumes mark the launch of this series: Animator and Orchestrator.Behold an industry first: real legato transitions for chords. For Symphobia Colours: Orchestrator, ProjectSAM recorded major and minor chords with all possible transitions between them. For example, C major and F minor were recorded separately, as well as C major changing into F minor and vice versa. The result is extremely realistic, musical and evocative.
The two ensembles recorded for Orchestrator are strings performing with choir and brass performing with woodwinds. A full set of legato chords is available for these two arrangements. Major and minor chords are mapped to two regions on the keyboard, allowing you to trigger and connect them using single keys.In addition to the legato chords, a number of other ensembles are available, including legato double basses performing with choir basses, violin with soprano sustains, various staccato chords as well as a bonus set of alternative chord orchestrations.Orchestrator 1.3 now supports the NKS standard, offering easy searching, Light Guide and hands-on parameter control for NI Komplete and/or Maschine users. Each instrument type in Orchestrator has a consistent region on the keyboard.
Chords are always mapped to the same octaves, so are low basses and high sustains. This makes it extremely easy to layer different sounds together.
The included Multis give you a number of such combinations.Orchestrator is an incredibly inspirational tool that will find its way into your orchestral template from day one. Key features. Gear head driver download digital keychain camera system. Orchestrated major and minor chords with real chord change transitions. Recorded for 2 ensembles: brass with winds and strings with choir.
Double basses & choir basses ‘Dark Basses’ legato instrument. 3-Layer mod wheel dynamics. Bonus tremolo chords, flageolet sustains and staccato instruments. Bonus celli with double basses sustains from SYMPHOBIA. Free mode or scale locking option for chord instruments.
