Description
The ultimate orchestra sound app for sophisticated musicians by award-winning sound designer Kurt Ader, designed as professional sound module for your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch by connecting an external MIDI keyboard, using the Apple USB camera adapter or another adapter supported by Apple.¹
Listen to the demo videos on our product website!
This app supports Audio Unit, Inter-App Audio and Audiobus for audio & MIDI connections from/to other audio apps, as well as Bluetooth LE MIDI !
iSymphonic Orchestra was designed with the goal to deliver you superb, extremely realistic and stunning orchestra sounds, instantly with the first key being pressed by you on your MIDI keyboard. Just select a sound and you are ready for your live performance or for a boost of creativity while composing new songs. The sounds used in this app were explicitly recorded to fulfill these requirements and involved several months of recording and post processing under supervision of Kurt Ader and included a variety of innovative, new recording techniques. So far these sounds were only available to very few, famous movie composers. Now they are finally available for the first time to everybody. The supreme quality of these sounds, combined with the unique way they were recorded and assembled, gives us confidence that you haven't heard anything comparable as of to date, even not on Mac or PC.

Ratings and Reviews
Sounds work with Linnstrument!!!
This app works very well with the Linnstrument controller. The app is stable. I really am impressed with the sounds. I would like the developer to expand the sound sets even more. Admittedly, this is one of the first sound set of this type that I own. The reverbs and the echoes effects are a nice touch. These effects are simple, intuitive and very useful, although basic. Overall, this is a nice addition. The basic app purchase includes a basic set of sounds. Additional sound sets can be added as in app purchases. Each additional sound sets are about the same the starting app price which gets you about a dozen or more sounds plus or minus. Maybe I’m paying a premium price, but the sounds are convincing.
Keys Sound Set IAP - Best Acoustic Pianos Yet!
I have many acoustic piano sample sets for IOS, including several of the ‘premium pianos’ available from various software companies. I wasn’t truly satisfied with any of them, until I purchased the ‘Keys Sound Set’ for iSymphonic. These pianos have a nice balance between the hammer and sustained part of the piano’s sound, giving them a very natural woody quality I find missing from most of the others. They had to have been sampled from well regulated pianos. Very consistent quality sound and feel across the full 88 keys. There are other sounds in this package. But, my main quest has been to find a really satisfying piano. There are two pianos here, with just enough variance in tone to satisfy most playing situations. I have been using my iPad for years for regular live performances. I feel highly confident recommending this iSymphonic add on. I think you will be pleased.
Stellar VST’s worth the $$. UI needs work.
There are some bugs that are mostly minor. The UI needs a face lift and could be more intuitive. But it’s By far the best VST‘s of any
iOS app out there with high-quality precise instrument sounds both incredibly authentic and very nicely customizable in velocity and articulation. It blows the native strings and brass especially in GarageBand out of the water.
