Cmon now. Don't exaggerate! You're blowing this out of proportion. The deposit is ONLY $3500.

If you go to Sonic State and look at the video for this plugin it does look quite impressive. Check it out

the deposit is actually $3500...and to be honest I'd rather pay 12k for this than 4 million for a couple of days with full orchestra trying to get them to do what you need.

Best part about this plugin -- the cannon instrument!

hiring real strings and an arranger is actually a lot cheaper than a million quid/dollars/whatever

"For string arranging, you can get paid between £500 and £1500 per track depending on how much work you have to do. I know quite a few arrangers and the going rate seems to be going down lately! If you’re the musical director on a session you will get some royalties as well through MCPS but the players just get the musicians union rates which is £110 for a 3-hour recording session. If the track they play on is released as a single, they also get what’s called a buy-out fee of about £500. But if you think, the record might sell 2 million copies and the players only got a hundred quid, it does seem a bit unfair!"

that's from some sort of weird musician site which (very oddly) calls itself 'warez.com'

Yeah right. Even if it was worth the dough...how about the human input? You got the programming savvy, free time, patience, performance training and keyboard chops to convincingly sound like a whole orchestra?

You've got to be a real virtuoso keyboardist AND symphonic composer to multitrack a symphony performance by yourself and still sound indistiguishable from the real thing. A tall feat to pull that one off. Hopefully you've got the stamina and patience to pull it off. Good luck burning that midnight oil.

I bet Hybrid will now no longer need to hire an orchestra.
