Symphony Essentials – The Definitive Guide

Symphony Essentials Strings, Brass, & Woodwinds – The Definitive Guide

The Definitive Guide for Symphony Essentials Strings, Brass, and Woodwind for Native Instruments Kontakt.

In this video we will go over everything you need to know about Symphony Essentials. We will focus on the Strings instrument first to learn the basics about the interface. Once you learn one instrument, you essentially know the rest. We will cover Brass and Woodwind as well though – look below for timecode.

You will also learn how to switch articulations, assign articulations to key switches or MIDI CC, use the performance controls, add effects, and everything else.

Symphony Essentials Strings, Brass, and Woodwind come with Komplete Ultimate, or you can buy the bundle.
