The Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra from EastWest is a sampled orchestral collection originally captured in a "state of the art" concert hall. Recorded by eleven-time Grammy nominated classical recording engineer Prof. Keith O. Johnson, the virtual instrument features strings, brass, woodwinds and percussion.
To achieve the feel of a live concert hall performance, each instrument and section was recorded with three microphone positions - close, stage (conductor's position) and hall. By selecting the different positions, users can mix these sounds together to create any kind of natural ambience their project requires, eliminating the need for artificial reverb.
Quantum Leap Symphony Orchestra functions as follows:

Comments about EastWest Quantum Leap Symphony Orchestra Gold Complete - Virtual Orchestral Instrument:
This is a great starter string package.
If you are familiar with virtual Instruments getting around Play,the player takes a bit of getting used too but once I got my ducks in a row with placing the library on a disk and downloading the newest install software and version of play I was ready to give it a go.
Of course I wanted more sounds as I started listening to them but found some sounds that were useful right away and they sounded great.
I can see upgrading soon to the platinum package but we won a $500 gift certificate from one of the companies who license our music so essentially it was free.Gotta love it.
