East West have recently released their Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra series, geared towards Medieval Fantasy styles of music found in projects such as Game of Thrones, The Witcher Series or The Tudors. In this video, I take the library for a test drive, walking you through the instruments/patches I used for the short piece I've written. I highly recommend the library, particularly if you are a video game composer, or have a keen interest in writing fantasy music!

Excellent vid: I like the way you described each instrument, its context and why you used it. I bought Fantasy Orchestra some months back and its an incredible package.

I am on the composer cloud for the past 2 years and the addition of the fantasy orchestra is the main reason i am still using it, the fantasy voice are really good compared to their other choirs libraries.

Quality composition Simon. Complemented by a beautiful sounding library. The baked in reverbs work really well in this library to add to an authentic atmosphere without overwhelming everything. That whistle! The choir is also really subtle.

Yup, you’ve convinced me… I need to get a better computer before I take the plunge on this pack.

Its an excellent software. Also - if you're keeping an eye on Fantasy Orchestra, EWQL is always doing excellent deals on their software: the week of Black Friday is a good time to look out for for the best deals, but throughout the year I've found that they regularly drop prices by up to 60% and more on some packages.

Excellent content as always Simon! Also Eastwest always surprising with its libraries. Do you know if these libraries and OPUS come with the cloud+ subscription? And in any case, what do you recommend more, the subscription or buying the Hollywood Fantasy pack?

@EWQLTutorials 8 ай бұрын

Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra and Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition both come in our ComposerCloud+ subscription, along with all 60+ EastWest collections. But of course you can buy any of these titles as well if you prefer!

I have been hired to compose fantasy music. They can't afford a real orchestra and a full range of medieval instruments. A few days ago I saw EW fantasy library and was thinking going for it for the job. You have convince me! 😊 I know a few musicians who will be able to sweet the music. I know a professional musician specialized in medieval instrument but having EW fantasy to fill up the rest is amazing!

@skelligringphotographyandw7012 8 ай бұрын

You don't need to buy it. Opus (which includes Fantasy Orchestra) is $19 a month on subscription from EW Composer Cloud, and you can turn the subscription on and off, month by month. So, you could probably get away with only paying for a month or two, while you do the job.

Nice video! I have a technical question: every instrument has its own play instance, or in the plugin it's possible to stack instruments like in kontakt? thank you

Very nice overview. Would love the full tune audio track if you have that somewhere!

Is anyone using this in Reason? I have had problems in the past trying to run East West products in Reason. Though recently I bought Hollywood Choirs and that was good. Any advice would be appreciated Jim

Hello from Ireland Simon, wonderful video, thank you. I have emailed you today. BTW, Uilleann (pipes) is pronounced 'ill-an', not you-lee-an. :)

I'm Canadian, playing in a Celtic metal band with an Irish name. The pronunciation battle here is an uphill one 😂

Appreciate the correction, always a worry of mine that I would do this especially with these types of instruments so thank you for pointing out the correct way! Have just responded to your email! Thanks for reaching out!
