I created a harmonised four-part chorale using the flute family's vibrato sustains, and was immediately impressed by their beautifully blended ensemble sound. It's a rare treat to find the whole flute family housed within one library: having the complete set to hand means you can compose passages for two concert flutes, alto and bass flute in much the same way as you might write for a string quartet of two violins, viola and cello. Family AffairĮastWest's studio (formerly known as Western Recorders) at 6000 West Sunset Boulevard. Companies are finally beginning to move away from this model, and HOW dispenses with ensembles altogether, in favour of a comprehensive solo woodwind line-up of piccolo, flute, second flute, alto and bass flutes, the four members of the clarinet family, oboe, English horn, bassoon and contrabassoon. Minimum and recommended system specifications are listed at When the above-mentioned Mr Vitous stepped into Prague's Dvorák Hall to record his Symphonic Orchestra samples in the early '90s, he was about to unwittingly set a precedent: for the next 20 years, every orchestral library of note followed the Czech maestro's lead of recording three-player unison woodwind sections as well as solo instruments. The hard drive used to supply the Diamond edition is a Western Digital 500GB bare internal type, so if you want to use it externally you'll need to buy your own drive enclosure (they're not expensive).
Like all EastWest Play titles, HOW requires an iLok USB key (not supplied with the library), which costs about £30 $50. The microphone positions used are identical to those in Hollywood Strings and Brass. The all-singing, all-dancing Diamond edition (133GB installed) provides five microphone positions and ships on hard drive lower-priced, scaled-down Gold and Silver editions are also available (see the 'Diamonds Are Forever' box for a comparison of the three editions' contents).

Hollywood Orchestral Woodwinds (HOW for short) runs on Mac and PC within EastWest's Play sound engine (supplied free with the library).

The third instalment of EWQL's four-part masterwork is now available: recorded (like the strings and brass before it) in EastWest's historic LA studio, Hollywood Orchestral Woodwinds has also benefited from the work of legendary sound engineer Shawn Murphy, a man whose movie soundtrack credits are so extensive that SOS have forbidden me to list them, for fear of causing a catastrophic printing-ink shortage in East Anglia. In the case of EastWest, the commitment begins to look like madness, as they have climbed this particular mountain twice: first in 2003 with their EWQL Symphony Orchestra, then again in recent years with the critically-acclaimed 'Hollywood' series, which so far has yielded Hollywood Strings and Hollywood Brass.

Amongst the brave souls who completed this arduous enterprise are Miroslav Vitous (who released the first full orchestra library back in 1992), Peter Siedlaczek, small-is-beautiful pioneer Gary Garritan, the mighty Vienna Symphonic Library and US sample veterans EastWest/Quantum Leap.
It takes a special kind of commitment to individually sample every instrument and ensemble of the symphony orchestra. The third instalment of EastWest's grand orchestral master plan sees the project nearing the finishing line. Mapped keys are marked in white, with keyswitches shown in blue. It features a four-channel mixer for the different mic positions, with channel four switchable between ambient 'surround' and 'vintage' mics, the latter sounding somewhat thinner and brighter than the surround option. HOW's Play interface is identical to that of Hollywood Strings and Hollywood Brass.
