What a wonderful walkthrough. Some of the most beautiful and inspiring libraries I have heard. While I listened to your video with the Choir played around with some guitar. I would be using the Libraries for self care. Relaxing at the end of a stressful day. Thank you.
i would use this library alot, it seems so great for the kind of emotional, melancholic type of stuff i like to write. As someone who only has spitfire stuff it would be awesome to get a taste of orchestral tools so see what i prefer from them over spitfire and what i dont. This library acctually reminded me a bit of a spitfire library with soft and characterful articulations like harmonic chirping with the strings. It would definitely blend really well with my spitfire stuff, and those choirs are indeed awesome
Thanks for taking the time to do this video, Chris! Beautiful libraries, I would definitely use these to add a unique sense of beauty, elegance and mystery in scores.
Thanks once again for this opportunity! Playing Elden Ring all week made me inspired to compose similiar soundbeds and pads which the Time series excells at!
I have been looking at Macro for a while, I missed the “glitch” a few days ago on the NI sale, so happy to see them now back on Sine to complement the Berlin Series. These are definitely spot on for drama and documentaries, which is what I intend to use them for.
This seems like a great collection to add movement to a traditional orchestral score. The variety of colors, in both libraries, is a great addition to any template, and suitable for many genres.
What a great job at OT to renew their old libraries, I hope now they get the attention they both deserves, just like you do with the choirs. Amazing!!!
Hi, thanks for the overview. I love the Orchestral Tools Sounds! They are great for scoring anything. Thanks for the opportunity to win the Time-Bundle!
What an incredible sound! Listening to it brings so much instant inspiration for writing an orchestral score. Thank you Orchestral tools for releasing this library for the sine player and thank you Christopher for demonstrating the library so well.
Loved your exploration of the Time MACRO & Time MICRO libraries. I'll definitely be entering this contest. I am in the process of creating the score for a science fiction short that has a lot of beautiful galactic imagery and I think this library would be perfect for it!
Thank you Chris for the opportunity ;) I would mainly use the choir patches to evoke interest in the background section. Further, I could imagine it to be interesting to put these textures as an intro to a composition (a reduced form of the progression, or the main melody laid out in a polyphonic manner.
This libraries are gems. The texture, rythmic and mouvement with some beautiful choirs! Very good for a complex approach of orchestral music. Thank you Chris.
I want to have these since the first teaser back then. I would use them to write storytelling orchestral electronic drum'n'bass music. Thanks for all our Videos, Chris.
These libraries sound amazing! This library looks great for more modern ambient/cinematic type soundscapes which I would love to delve into. Thanks for the opportunity Christopher!
Amazing review as always and really amazing playing style:D I never considered time micro and macro since I never dug their capabilities! I really love this hybrid approach to orchestral sounds, I tend to make asian chillhop music with orchestral elements to add a cinematic and more expressive vibe, I think this libraries can really give that modern approach without being overwhelming so I would definitely implement these if I get the chance! Also in the future I wanted to start scoring short videos to experiment with scoring for films/videos and these can give a real modern and enhance the aesthetics for many different styles!
I love the sound of these! I’d definitely use it for contemporary cues. I really loved the woodwinds, they have a really great sound and unique character to them
Thanks for the video! I love the sounds of these and the Arks. I'd use them for creating mood and action music for tabletop role playing games like Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu and Traveller.
Thank you for showing these beautiful libraries. I think they are amazing toolkits to add all kinds of interesting colors to compositions. There are so many unique sounds here, it's just amazing. I also love the choir patches in particular, they sound really gorgeous! I would love to get this bundle but even with the discount it's far out of my reach for now.
Hello Sir! thanks for giving us oppertunity to get these! I 'd like to use these beauties on my next project(Korean Drama). by the way, like always great video!
I love the sound of these Jewels of Orchestral Tools. So rich and immersive. If I had these, I’d use them to help me finish my first atmospheric hybrid album which to make the listener close his eyes and lose himself (or herself) in an auditive adventure of sound and melody. These instruments would help so much by giving it extra color and dimension!
This "time" series is a great addition to the fabulous Ark series and would provide movement and momentum to my compositions. Thanks Christopher and Orchestral Tools for the chance at this giveaway!
Love the Time series sound! I'd use them add some interesting orchestral movement to my rhythm section sequencing, would be amazing to have these sounds on my palette! Thanks for the video demo as well!
I didn't know these libraries before. I'm thrilled by the excellent-sounding textures. I can well imagine contemporary / experimental music with it. (My favorites are the woodwinds and choir.)
I'd absolutely love to use these libraries. They give an impression of instant inspiration toolkits. I'd first try everything possible just with each library separately and then definitely combine them plus later layer it with other stuff. They seem to be perfect for all sorts of etherical, ambient, melancholic, beautiful scoring and on the other hand, more complex, abstract and even horror type of scoring also. Options are limitless... Would be truly a joy to have them!
This library is really nice to add textures to orchestral music, it feel like it can inspire me writing different stuff than usual. Reminds me a bit of spitfire libraries:)
Always loved rythmic and moving/fluidity in orchestral textures. Would like to have the opportunity to use the Time libraries to explore this even more! As they seem amazing for it!
Thanks for the opportunity to win the bundle and thanks for your thorough walkthroughs and insights. I would use these libraries to further extend my textural palette and blend it’s moving arch’s with Melodie’s to achieve my favorite compositions. Ones that blend melody and classic structure, with mood altering mind bending psychedelia and melancholy. Similar to badalamentis work with David lynch. 🤙🏼
Wow, these libraries sounded amazing, especially Macro in my opinion. I would love to use these in projects coming up as they would give someone like me (someone new to composing) a very time efficient way to get a really beautiful sound. And like you said at the end, they sound like they'd make a perfect cherry on top of a few libraries that I have :)
As a beginner composer i wouldn't be honest saying that i would use these libraries to complement my works because i lack the skill to do so. But some of these sounds are so inspiring that i'm sure i could come up with some "touching theme or loop". I think that as a beginner having sounds that manage to inspire you is key. (I absolutely love these choirs, so emotional!).
Most of the libraries that I own lean towards the more traditional orchestra variety (including most of the Berlin stuff). These seem like they would add some wonderful new colors, movement, and unique sounds to my palette while still blending well with a more orchestral sound. Some of the patches sound like they could be interesting sources for adding fx to make some really interesting stuff as well. I think I could have some fun with these; especially for more underscore-ish type things and perhaps for some tense moments as well.
Absolutely love time macro, it has some wonderful textures, and some of the rhythmic stuff is wonderfull to add organic movement to tracks. Would love to add time micro to my collection.
nice sounds! i'd use them to add movement, depth & texture to more trad libraries... also sound like good ones for sketching & inspo... for neo-classical/experimental/ambient styles
These libraries are insane for organic texture in orchestral tracks. I'd definetely use them to fill up empty spaces in the mix and to make the whole score way more interesting.
The Times series will give the composition that extra level and depth behind the other libraries. It will make the compositions the more organic feel. And they sound amazing.
Hi Christopher, I think these libraries would be great for writing music for anime scenes and for some emotional orchestral pop music. Thanks for showcasing them! Ivan
I've always been a bit of a control freak, so I rarely use libraries like these, but heck these two sound great! Would love to see what comes out from using them.
In addition to experimental articulations, I tend to gravitate toward movement/rhythmic-based sets, and I can hear a LOT of potential in Orchestral Tools' Altered Time series; that said, however, the unique quartets would certainly find their way into my tracks (don't think that I have anything comparable at present)
This feels like it would tie in amazingly with habitat to provide extra movement and orchestral textures. I would love to pair it with synths, drum machines and orchestra to create more texture and points of interest that feel are lacking in what I write.
Had my eye on Time Micro for a while. Might buy a couple patches a la carte, if I don't win the giveaway. Just a hobbyist, but love orchestral tools samples.
Great sounding libraries. Could see using them for John Adams inspired compositions (Harmonielehre pt.3 is an exceptionally good example of how these sound to me...). Search for "Harmonielehre Simon Rattle" on TH-cam for an example.
Underscoring for sure. These are not just textures and pads but these are purely unprocessed orchestral elements which gives you that realism, perfect for a documentary score. I've been recently watching Netflix documentaries about our planet and they possess similar sounds to this. Although I am aware the Macro and Micro existed a long time ago, I am delighted to know they are in SINE because I personally like OT's player more than kontakt.
I would use this religiously, because I love making textural compositions. Spitfire’s Orchestral Swarm was disappointing, as I feel they did not go nearly far enough with the concept. The Time series sounds much more natural.
Hello, my name is Carlos. I`ve been wanting to buy Time Micro and Macro for a long time, but sadly they are out of my budget range, i`d love to win a copy! I would use the different textures in scores for shorts, or documentaries, they are instant inspiration, i think they also work perfect for minimalistic style!
To be honest, I don't see how this texture or sound design will be useful unless I am planning on adding humanize element to a already completed orchestral track. Most of orchestral tool products (especially string instruments) are great but this library really sound limited to a specific use or just plain adding soundscape effect. But what am I to complain further when I am just commenting to enter the giveaway. :P
I’ll be very excited to use this Time bundle for some ambient and mysterious movie - it’s also fits well with some kind of an Interstellar soundtrack for my opinion)) So, I think, I’ll be happy to score with it a space travel movie too)) 🔭🪐🛸👽🚀👨🏻🚀

Such great ambiances and textures. This is precisely what I need for intros of my tracks.

Thank you Christopher for your insightful overview of these two beautiful libraries. I would use them for inspiration! Who doesn't need inspiration!!!
This is a brilliant underscoring tool, gorgeous textures and fantastic sounds
Nice library - could imagine doing some relaxation stuff with it
I think these libraries would be good for ambient pieces. Awesome demos!

Thanks once again for this opportunity! Playing Elden Ring all week made me inspired to compose similiar soundbeds and pads which the Time series excells at!
Whoa! this is actually really awesome .. Chris is always a fine reviewer, Thank you OT and Chris!
Great review as always! I'd use the libs in fantasy or ambient scores😍
I have been looking at Macro for a while, I missed the “glitch” a few days ago on the NI sale, so happy to see them now back on Sine to complement the Berlin Series. These are definitely spot on for drama and documentaries, which is what I intend to use them for.
These have been on my wishlist for a while. Great to add some movement to my music
Very interesting concept!
Great sound. Love both for different reasons but I think I do love the detail in Macro. Choir’s definitely a win 🏆
Nice walkthrough! This combined with the Berlin series makes again a really nice combination i think
This seems like a great collection to add movement to a traditional orchestral score. The variety of colors, in both libraries, is a great addition to any template, and suitable for many genres.
These libraries have an AMAZING sound. I would definitely use them in my film projects. Thank you Chris and Orchestral Tools for this!
What a great job at OT to renew their old libraries, I hope now they get the attention they both deserves, just like you do with the choirs. Amazing!!!
The subtleties and movement in these libraries are uniquely useful for conveying intention and emotion, etc.

The texture, rythmic and mouvement with some beautiful choirs! Very good for a complex approach of orchestral music.
Thank you Chris.
Amazing review! I'd totally use it to step up my productions for music libraries & ad's with this great sounding library.
Wow, Just in time for a giveaway, Thanks Christopher and OT. Perfect for my ambient Background Suspence Stuff.
I want to have these since the first teaser back then. I would use them to write storytelling orchestral electronic drum'n'bass music. Thanks for all our Videos, Chris.
Hi Chris, thanks for the review.
I would use the library to continuously gain more inspiration and to keep learning.
These libraries sound amazing! This library looks great for more modern ambient/cinematic type soundscapes which I would love to delve into. Thanks for the opportunity Christopher!
These libraries are just great for film scoring! Nice review btw!
These libraries sound amazing!!! It would be a great addition to the free libraries I use.
Amazing review as always and really amazing playing style:D

Hello Christopher, it is a great library with very inspiring sounds. It would be very useful for creating textures in orchestral music these days.
I love the sound of these! I’d definitely use it for contemporary cues. I really loved the woodwinds, they have a really great sound and unique character to them
I would love to use this for taking my music to the next level and getting more serious about making my album. Love the sound.
Thanks for the video! I love the sounds of these and the Arks. I'd use them for creating mood and action music for tabletop role playing games like Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu and Traveller.
I would use it for creating a kind of 'in the midst of space -etheral-infinite-consciousness' soundscape, lots of great possibilities here, love it!
Great collection for scoring!

Hello Sir! thanks for giving us oppertunity to get these! I 'd like to use these beauties on my next project(Korean Drama). by the way, like always great video!
Was expecting your review on this update. Sounds great ! These libraries would sound great as layers in a modern orchestral score.
I love the sound of these Jewels of Orchestral Tools. So rich and immersive. If I had these, I’d use them to help me finish my first atmospheric hybrid album which to make the listener close his eyes and lose himself (or herself) in an auditive adventure of sound and melody. These instruments would help so much by giving it extra color and dimension!
This libraries sound amazing! i would definitely use them to make incredible music
This "time" series is a great addition to the fabulous Ark series and would provide movement and momentum to my compositions. Thanks Christopher and Orchestral Tools for the chance at this giveaway!
Love the Time series sound! I'd use them add some interesting orchestral movement to my rhythm section sequencing, would be amazing to have these sounds on my palette! Thanks for the video demo as well!
Beautiful stuff - I'd probably use these to complement compositions in Staffpad now that you can import audio from DAW -> Staffpad
I didn't know these libraries before. I'm thrilled by the excellent-sounding textures. I can well imagine contemporary / experimental music with it. (My favorites are the woodwinds and choir.)
I'd absolutely love to use these libraries. They give an impression of instant inspiration toolkits.

Options are limitless... Would be truly a joy to have them!
OrchestralTools libraries are amazing. I'd love to use Time for modern orchestral scores 🤩
Very impressed with the time series. I'd be interested to see how these sound in an orchestral hip hop setting
This library is really nice to add textures to orchestral music, it feel like it can inspire me writing different stuff than usual. Reminds me a bit of spitfire libraries:)
Always loved rythmic and moving/fluidity in orchestral textures. Would like to have the opportunity to use the Time libraries to explore this even more! As they seem amazing for it!
Lovely sound!!!! I'm actually trying to make an album would love to have this on my arsenal to help me write some textures and passages!!!!
Sound Great interesting it!, I would use for texture element make whole music complex sound layer.
Great Review Chris.

Absolutely love time macro, it has some wonderful textures, and some of the rhythmic stuff is wonderfull to add organic movement to tracks. Would love to add time micro to my collection.
I would especially use the choirs in this, I need a better choir library other than the LABS choirs :D
Wow! I would dream to have a library like this! I would make high-quality music for games and hope to make a living of it one day in the future!
nice sounds! i'd use them to add movement, depth & texture to more trad libraries... also sound like good ones for sketching & inspo... for neo-classical/experimental/ambient styles
These libraries are insane for organic texture in orchestral tracks. I'd definetely use them to fill up empty spaces in the mix and to make the whole score way more interesting.
Using of time in some subtle progressive tracks, this library just seems perfect for that 👍
Looks great!
The Times series will give the composition that extra level and depth behind the other libraries. It will make the compositions the more organic feel.
And they sound amazing.
Hi Christopher, I think these libraries would be great for writing music for anime scenes and for some emotional orchestral pop music. Thanks for showcasing them!
Ivan
I've always been a bit of a control freak, so I rarely use libraries like these, but heck these two sound great! Would love to see what comes out from using them.
time to take advantage of these for evocative pieces
In addition to experimental articulations, I tend to gravitate toward movement/rhythmic-based sets, and I can hear a LOT of potential in Orchestral Tools' Altered Time series; that said, however, the unique quartets would certainly find their way into my tracks (don't think that I have anything comparable at present)
I would use these libraries to keep improving my sound palette. Just a hobbyist for now, but hopefully one day I can do something professionally.
I'd use these libraries to enhance my sketches for music to accompany the book that I'm writing. Thanks.
Very good sounding libraries! I hope i will win a copy of that for my projects. 👱
I want to use sample libraly to break my safe zone and explore music path for someday I can give opportunities like you do for another musician .
This feels like it would tie in amazingly with habitat to provide extra movement and orchestral textures. I would love to pair it with synths, drum machines and orchestra to create more texture and points of interest that feel are lacking in what I write.
I would use in some fun scoring projects
Can never have too many time sounds 😳😂🙏🏾
Ugh how did I miss this. I’m so bummed.
Had my eye on Time Micro for a while. Might buy a couple patches a la carte, if I don't win the giveaway. Just a hobbyist, but love orchestral tools samples.
Could be useful for ambient. The choir is especially nice.
Wow, sounds great. I am in fear, that I will playing around with the sounds and closed eyes dreaming , instead of composing
Great sounding libraries. Could see using them for John Adams inspired compositions (Harmonielehre pt.3 is an exceptionally good example of how these sound to me...).
Search for "Harmonielehre Simon Rattle" on TH-cam for an example.
I would love to use this library to give the music more spectacular elements, almost like Hans Zimmer, so it gives the music a more captivating mood
Underscoring for sure. These are not just textures and pads but these are purely unprocessed orchestral elements which gives you that realism, perfect for a documentary score. I've been recently watching Netflix documentaries about our planet and they possess similar sounds to this. Although I am aware the Macro and Micro existed a long time ago, I am delighted to know they are in SINE because I personally like OT's player more than kontakt.
Would love to incorporate these libraries as moving textures to add extra life to a piece and construct sonic landscapes.
I’d love to use these libraries to create more realistic drama style mockups
I would use this beautiful library to score some NFTs.
I would use this religiously, because I love making textural compositions. Spitfire’s Orchestral Swarm was disappointing, as I feel they did not go nearly far enough with the concept. The Time series sounds much more natural.
To make great music hopefully 😌

I would use the different textures in scores for shorts, or documentaries, they are instant inspiration, i think they also work perfect for minimalistic style!
I would like to use these libraries to add a special flavor to my music.
Would love to experiement with this lib.
I would caress the library. Kiss it and then use it to create the greatest soundtrack the world has ever heard.
Just choose random patch and give a modulation. Play it, and DONE! Its so easy.
To be honest, I don't see how this texture or sound design will be useful unless I am planning on adding humanize element to a already completed orchestral track.
