I have Symphony Series light, as I have the Komplete 11 Ultimate, and that was included.
Any of you that owns the full version of the Symphony Series by Native Instruments, is it any good?

Percussion (the newest one in the set) is very nice, and I still use it occasionally.
The others can sound rather nice too in the right context, but generally speaking, I think the samples are way too wet, and the ensemble sizes are a bit unusual in some cases. My impression is that they’re aimed at people wanting to go “a bit orchestral” in the context of other genres, rather than composers/orchestrators going for realism.
They are way too wet in the light versions, but I assume you get close mics in the full version?
I noticed it was AudioBro who made the strings btw, same company that has done LASS, which many composers love.
They do offer more microphones, but I don’t remember how dry the close ones are.
I’ll have a look at them and see how I find them, compared to the other libs I have now. (Maybe not today; full day scheduled, unless plans are changed.)
The percussion and strings are the ones I am mainly interested in. Do you have Komplete 12, or did you buy the symphony collection full edition directly?
I got the Symphony full versions and Percussion on various deals before K12; maybe even earlier. IIRC, Percussion didn’t exist when I upgraded the others.
