Description: One of my regular speed-writing exercises.

@anothercrappypianist: I do my speed-writing exercises all within the span of a day.  I think this one was just a few hours; I'd have to check.  Guitar is from Omnisphere, if I recall!

one of my favourites :) Brass is a combo from cinesamples plus samplemodelling?

This probably has to be my favourite track from you, because it's so different. I love the percussive effect with the guitar!

The last part that i think the guitars play in the bass sound really cool it reminds me of some movie soundtrack i have heard

A symphonic composition as a hommage to the pirate movie soundtracks of the Golden Age of Hollywood with an epic adventure theme and an emotional love theme.

The Strings that work for you
https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/classical/orchestral-strings/
We are very proud to present our take on Orchestral Strings to you.
We have spent the best part of five years working on this project and have left no stone unturned to create a product that, as a multisampled String Orchestra alone, will satisfy even the most demanding users. But this collection is so much more than that. Orchestral Strings is the culmination of all of our efforts and experience to this point. It melds together everything that we've learned about multisampling over the years, combined with our knowledge of orchestral phrases.
At its core, Orchestral Strings is a hugely capable full-divisi full-size Strings section, recorded with the fantastic Capellen Orchestra in Zlin, Czech Republic. It is edited with the utmost care to preserve all the details and character of the performances.
We covered all of the most-used articulations in up to four velocities, and we devised a 'shared tail' system for the shorts that provides you with a greater variety of round robins without unnecessarily increasing the memory load.
Poly-Legato and Auto Divisi ensure the most realistic sound imaginable. No corners were cut in making this product, and it will evolve for many years to come. In fact, we still have some surprises up our sleeves that will enhance your user experience and provide tools that are useful and fun in equal measure.
Included within the instrument are some powerful midi engines with midi import, real-time midi manipulation, a piano roll editor and midi export. The possibilities are near endless once you scratch the surface, yet very easily accessible if you just want to compose quickly.
The Runs engine will trigger and play silky smooth runs whilst you hold chord notes. Just play a start and end key and these runs will adhere to your chosen chords and transition between all the applicable notes automatically.
The Phrases engine at its core works as a sketchpad for Patterns, with the core 12 patterns auto-saved with your instrument or DAW session. Going further, a potential 12 x 12 x 12 phrases can be saved away to be shared between your instruments and projects.
These phrases are then playable in a fashion very similar to the way our Phrase-Based instruments work. You can even drag in phrases from the Phrase-Based products you already own, edit them and tweak them to your liking, vastly boosting the flexibility of this Strings instrument. You can even drag out the midi for entire played passages including any chord changes, added Harmony etc. for use in third-party instruments or for instance to add a synth layer for a hybrid sound!
We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer, will produce with it.
Sonokinetic has established a name as one of the best value & quality sample producers, and with this product, we’d like to underline that statement. We stick with our unbeatable pricing model and high-quality sampling.
We wish you the best of inspiration and creativity. With warm regards,
The Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings Production Team

Maximo: Action Packed & Powerful Cinematic Orchestral Sampling
https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/instruments/maximo/?ref=sndcl
Maximo fills a space in our phrase-based orchestral line-up that many composers working in media have been waiting for. Like the old adage, we didn't go home, we went BIG! Our enlarged and expanded orchestra worked overtime to play the biggest, baddest orchestral phrases possible. Not only is the sound huge, but the writing has been tailored to this specific set of instruments. Some phrases were composed specifically using unusual harmonic content like the odd flat 6th and flat 2nd intervals. We created a product that will fit in perfectly with any contemporary writing style. 
Of course all of the stuff you would expect in a Sonokinetic phrase-based instrument is there, so if you've used any of our instruments before you will be able to put Maximo to work right away without any trouble. Within minutes you'll be adding this big amazing sound to your palette. 
Using our midi drag and drop functionality doubling the orchestral phrases with a synth for that hybrid sound has never been easier. The full score is also available within the interface so you can peek under the hood and see what's going on compositionally with the phrases you are using and how the sound coming out of your speakers has been achieved.
Expanding the brass section and having them play their lungs out was a very visceral experience and we think it translates really well to the finished product. The sound has a 'kinetic' strength and brings about a joyous feeling that is hard to ignore. We've been smiling all the way through production with this one!
For the strings and woodwinds the emphasis is on the lower side of things too, with 8 double basses, 16 celli, 6 bassoons and a contrabassoon. We've made sure that the low content has enough pressure and presence to carry a mix all the way through, whatever you decide to add on top.
We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Maximo to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer base, will produce with it.

Majestic Orchestral Sampling
www.sonokinetic.net/products/instruments/largo/
Ever since we started our phrase-based sampling odyssey there’s been something we’ve longed to capture: The slow and stately sound of strings melodies, woodwind chord ensembles and smooth brass lines have been on our wish-list for years. Now, we present “Largo”, where we have finally created a set of performances that typify the kind of scoring of classic film scores and historical features. The emphasis here is on strong thematic writing with smooth, yet dramatic transitions between the notes.

In musical terminology, “Largo” literally means slow and we took this at face value, asking our orchestra to perform at a stately 75 BPM. That doesn’t mean that you can only use these phrases for sombre pieces as the engine adapts the phrase playback to any speed of project. With Largo we always kept versatility in mind. This means legato, portamento, staccato and staccatissimo styles have been captured, as well as harmonics, glissandi and many other techniques which are impossible to reproduce realistically with traditional multi-sampled orchestral libraries. Largo covers many bases with pristinely captured performances available in all root keys.
More than ever, the “Harmonic Shift” functionality of the interface comes into its own. As Largo contains so much strong thematic material, it’s really inspiring to utilize the Harmonic Shift capabilities to create unexpected melodies and harmonies.
Of course all of the stuff you would expect in a Sonokinetic phrase-based instrument is there, so if you've used any of our instruments before you will be able to put Largo to work right away without any trouble. Within minutes you'll be adding themes and melodies to your palette. 
Using our midi drag and drop functionality to double the orchestral phrases with your own instruments has never been easier. The full score is also available within the interface so you can peek under the hood and see how the phrases have been composed and this also makes Largo a valuable learning tool. 

We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Largo to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer base, will produce with it.
Sonokinetic has established a name as one of the best value & quality sample producers and with this product we’d like to underline that statement. We stick with our unbeatable pricing module and high quality sampling.

We wish you the best inspiration and creativity.

When We Meet Again (Benny Oschmann)

Century 2.0 includes 2 new mixes with the instruments placed in natural orchestral seating position.  Great, polished sound, out of the box.  MIX A is very focused and detailed.  LOTS of bow.  MIX B is wide and ambient, puffy and warm. We realize that many composers out there are defining their own sound by mixing and matching libraries.  With this in mind, we will also be providing EQ presets and videos to help you mix Century with other great strings libraries.
