Apple GarageBand Jam Pack 4 description:
With a symphony orchestra in tow, you just may have to spring for bigger quarters. But if youre planning to conduct your own orchestra, youll want better acoustics anyway. Using Jam Pack 4: Symphony Orchestra and GarageBand (or Logic Express 7, Logic Pro 7), there are virtually no limits to the types of sophisticated music you can create. Taking advantage of the prerecorded Apple Loops (more than 2,000 in Jam Pack 4), you can compose everything from classical music to movie soundtracks. Or you may want to lend some symphonic power to your pop, rock or hip-hop arrangements. Symphony Orchestra also provides you with more than 30 of the most important orchestral software instruments to play, including:
Strings. In your orchestral string section, youll find first and second violins, violas, cellos, double basses and a concert harp, as well. And thanks to GarageBand, you can control not only the dynamics and expression of each instrument but such articulations as staccato, tremolo and trills, as well.
Brass & Winds. The ever-popular woodwind and brass sections include flutes, oboes, lovely French horns, trumpets, trombones and tubas, among others. Play any as solo instruments or, for a richer sound, as an entire section. You can even control the playing style of individual instruments.
Percussion. Nows your chance to play a wide selection of percussive elements: bass, snare and field drum; cymbals, gong and bells; the woodblock and still others. You can also try your hand at a full range of pitched percussion instruments, including timpani, celesta, xylophone, marimba and the glockenspiel.
Keyboard. Your Symphony Orchestra also comes with new keyboard instruments, as well. They includes a Steinway grand piano, harpsichord and a heavenly church organ
