  •  Balanced for clarity, power, and cinematic impact
  •  The choir in this mockup was created using my custom technique for Ace Studio. If you want to explore that tool as well, you can find it here.


What this template does

Hear How the Libraries Blend

Can you hear the difference?

Listen closely as equivalent orchestral passages alternate between SSO Pro and BBCSO Pro.
The template was designed to reduce tonal and spatial differences between the two libraries, allowing them to function as a more unified orchestra.

  • Alternating SSO and BBC SO lines
  • Cohesive stereo image and depth


The goal is to create enough cohesion that you can move between them naturally according to the musical needs of each passage.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to own the libraries?

Yes. This template is designed for users who already own Spitfire Symphony Orchestra Professional and BBC Symphony Orchestra Professional.

Are the sample libraries included?

No. This product includes the template/workflow only.

Which DAW is this for?

Logic 11.2.2 or higher is required.

Is there a version for other DAWs?

Currently, this template is available only for Logic Pro 11.2.2 or higher.
I’m not planning separate Cubase/Studio One/etc. versions, but I am developing a Vienna Ensemble Pro version that will work with any DAW that can connect to VEP.

Is this suitable for beginners?

It is most useful for composers and producers who already have some familiarity with orchestral templates and virtual instruments.

Will this help me get a more cohesive sound?

Yes — the template is designed to provide a more organized and professionally balanced orchestral starting point.

Can I get a refund if I don’t like the template?

Because this is a digital product delivered with all files available immediately after purchase, we do not offer refunds for this template.

That said, I’m very confident in the quality of this work and in the value it brings to composers using SSO and BBC SO. The template, mockup session and materials were designed to be genuinely useful in real cinematic scoring workflows.

Will you add more libraries to this template in future updates?

No. This template is focused on **Spitfire Symphonic Orchestra** and **BBC Symphony Orchestra**  
and I don’t plan to expand it with additional libraries.

However, I’m developing other products with different library combinations.  
The next template will include SSO, BBC SO and additional Spitfire libraries, and customers who purchase this product will receive exclusive discounts for those upcoming templates.
