- The first Sample Library I ever bought! Albion One, is it still relevant today when we have products like BBCO Core for the same price? I'll let you decide.

Great Review! Very Helpful and keep going 👍
Thanks for the honest review!
Bloody hell that paper round paid well. Loved the video thanks Joe.
72hr weeks working in community care ;) - would not recommend
@@Joe-blogcomposer My son works three 12 hour shifts in a care home.
He's just started nights this week but he likes it.
A lot of hours you work my friend. Anyways take care care Joe.
@darrenhirst9900 it’s an honourable job, not easy but rewarding, did it for 3/4 years while studying a few years ago now, all the best, and glad you enjoyed the video 😊
This is good multi viewpoint review . I own Albion one and for orchestral work is it stably my starting point ..obviously with a decent piano. I’ve invested in several spitfire solo instruments and additional various string libraries (fragile strings ,symphonic evolutions etc etc). I find I’m still very happy with Albion one with my extended and versatile palette of instruments.
Thank you for the comment, I appraise the feedback a lot! I must admit theirs nothing like Albion One strings, this library just has a very unique character that you can't find anywhere else.
Great presentation thanks
Thank you!
Verry good and in great details ,the manufacturies should use guys like you to Demo there products Thanks
да Джое...отличное видео.я подписался на Вас.и наконец я купил Albion ONE-на черную пятницу...удачи Вам.спасибо за урок.привет из Одессы.Украина.
Great review! I also love Albion One. I am curious what kind of headphones are you using?
They look like Audio Technica, but which model?
Audio Technica ATH-M50X! Absolute love them, you can change out the cable, very comfortable, and flexible, and my mixes seem to translate well.
Thank you for the comment 🙂 I have an “In Action” video on Albion one coming out on the 31st Oct!
@@Joe-blogcomposer Thank you for your reply. I will look out for our action video on Albion One!
Good review. I actually have Albion One and you reminded me of a few bits and bobs I have often overlooked.
Glad it was helpful! 🥰
It has the mic positions going for it. That's not common in a all in one.
So it will have use for layering later on with other libraries.
However, competition is getting tough.
If you are after big epic sound it's something to consider.
With Nucleus you don't get mic positions, you get individual sections though.
So it's really up to what you want the most.
Personally, I'm happy I went with The Orchestra Complete.
With all its flaws, it's a library that I still use after getting other libraries with the engine and all.
String longs and string legato is a bit weak. But other than that it's very nice.
Small footprint, great for sketching, but the brass I feel even hold up against much more expensive libraries (except the trumpet lacks power in the upper range)
It's loaded with articulations. Beats many full fledged dedicated libraries with articulations.
But there's a reason it's so low in GB. No mic positions. Not many round robins/dynamic layers etc.
Untill the day we get everything in a $400 all in one, you have to choose what matters most to you in the library.
I feel like mic positions (or a feature like the engine in the orchestra) is a better choice than individual sections etc.
Unless you never plan to buy other libraries ofc.
However .. Best first library now I would say is .. KONTAKT 7/Komplete 14.
With Kontakt 7 you now get an all in one.
Most essential articulations. No legato, but it's enough to start with.
Since most will probably buy Kontakt eventually anyway, it's the best starting point imo
At some point I want to try Nucleus and I keep hearing great things about the Orchestra Complete. Closest thing I've got to an 'all in one' is BBCSO. With every Komplete they come out with it just gets better and better, only thing stopping getting it is I already have everything I use, but one day I'll do a video on it probs wait for 15.
Are the percussion in Albion available outside of that program if you wanted to buy it with bbc orchestra? Thank you
Not that I’m aware no, but I would highly recommend Kopernikus Percussion from
Metropolis Ark 1 (orchestral tools) if your looking for something similar which you can buy separate
@@Joe-blogcomposer will look at that, thank you 🙏🏼
Darwin percs are an absolute selling point, so is the col legno, woodwind shorts and spiccatos and the low octave articulations. Everything else I find to be hit or miss
I was using Darwin percs for years and the shorts have a character to them that you can't find anywhere else :) thanks for commenting!
my opinion:yes.Albion ONE is it still worth to buy.Only the Strings are so great.Of course also the other Symphonic sound.
Also the other a lot of sounds you can use for everything.
Maybe one day o do just use Albion ONE to do a piece.
Completely agree, the strings have such a distinct sound that just scream Albion One, and you can't fine that anywhere else!
