Great product - arrived quickly, easy install, playable and well-recorded patches. From opening the box, I was composing within minutes. This was my first purchase from Spitfire and I'm very happy so far.

Immersive. I was looking for an all in one solution for writing orchestral music. I was not prepared for this quality and detail.
Good internet connection I am very happy when finishing all the components downloading in the Epic choir and BBCSO Professional Edition. Spitfire provides stable and steady internet connection during downloading. Even I pause the download, I sleep my iMac, I shut down my computer, the download can be continued.

Wanting the outcome of my new songs with new elements
I have been quite happy with the product and it gives you most of the things I needed. Only minor things I would have hoped to have included were piano sounds, more solo string techniques (sul pont. etc.) and some woodwind instruments, such as an E-flat Clarinet.
BBC Symphony Orchestra Core was my all time favourite library. The Professional edition takes it to a whole new level!
Superb library. Extra mics are great for precision editing. The leaders are worth the entry fee to ‘Pro’ library.
For me the best ! spitfire !
Crazy good library...I looked at (and trialed) several competing orchestral libraries and BBC SO Pro was so much better for my needs. I'm a jazz composer branching into orchestral composition for video and commercial clients and this product is perfect. Highly recommended.
Love this one. Amazing basis for me.
BBC Symphony Professional is one of the best things that happened to virtual instruments. It exceeded my expectations, and I'm thrilled to own it. Having all of the orchestra in such high quality within one plugin it's a blessing, making it so easy to collaborate. Thank you, Spitfire Team.
Beautiful. Use the harp. Trust me.
So happy to finally have the BBC SO professional! Been wanting to have this library for so long, and it’s everything I ever dreamed of. A game changer in composition. That way you can add techniques and dynamics, makes you feel the director of an orchestra right in front of you.
This is what you want!
Really good orchestra samples for the price (sale price for me was $354.53), but not as good as Spitfire Symphonic range, in my opinion. There are a couple of patches that I really liked, but on a whole, there are better orchestral libraries out there if you are willing to spend a little more. My main issues are the UI (very inefficient use of space) and the overall legato transitions not sounding great. I personally think the strings are the weak point of the package. That being said, this is a great library for composers who don't yet have a full orchestral sample range to use. This is a great
Really nice but the woodwinds have strange legato.
Outstanding! I am such a fan of the sound of this orchestra, and now I have the ability to recreate an entire symphony orchestra at my fingertips. This is truly a game-changer
Best you can buy for this price!!
Obviously amazing sounds for a whole orchestra, including solo instruments. Tons of articulations means there is a lot here. It’s a lot of work as there are so many options, but worth it if you want your work to sound professional.
A truly magnificent collection of wonderfully-recorded and presented instrument sounds with a fast navigation system that I know I will be using for decades (if I last that long!).
I’m happy with the new plugin. Sounds professional.
