Spitfire Audio Kepler Orchestra (Digital product)

Spitfire Audio Kepler Orchestra is a revolutionary virtual instrument library crafted for modern composers, recorded at the iconic AIR Studio One. Featuring a chamber-sized orchestra, it draws inspiration from the legendary American systems composers of the late 20th century, including Terry Riley, Philip Glass, Steve Reich, and John Adams.

This library offers a full orchestra with 40 strings, 13 woodwinds, and 19 brass instruments, captured with pristine clarity in AIR Lyndhurst's vibrant acoustic environment. Expertly sampled, the instruments include 54 unique articulations and playing styles, many never before heard in sample libraries, orchestrated by Ben Foskett and produced by Harry Wilson.

At the heart of Kepler Orchestra lies the innovative Systems Grid, an articulation mapping tool inspired by Spitfire Audio's Evo Grid technology. This system enables composers to create complex polyrhythms and interlocking rhythmic patterns with ease, featuring various time divisions such as duplet, triplet, quintuplet, and septuplet—all tempo-locked to your DAW for seamless integration.

Complementing the orchestral palette is the Mercury Synth engine, which introduces 30 unique, warped, and space-inspired sounds derived from the organic samples of the orchestra. These sounds are crafted through granular synthesis and extensive processing with outboard gear and effects, designed to add rich textures and atmospheric layers to your compositions.

Kepler Orchestra also includes 259 expertly curated Snapshots—pre-programmed rhythmic and sonic starting points that inspire creativity and provide instant musical ideas, perfect for both detailed scoring and epic cinematic moments.
