The Sonic Implants Complete Symphonic Collection isut the need for additional processing or comprised of four volumes, Strings, Woodwinds, Brass, and Percussion.

The two-year gap between the release of Sonic Implants' Symphonic String Collection (July 2002) and Symphonic Brass Collection (June 2004) might have led some to believe that the latter release marked the end of the company's orchestral library master plan. However, it's now clear that far from resting on their laurels, the Massachusetts-based outfit were hard at work recording woodwind and percussion collections to supplement their strings and brass. The four titles are now released in 24-bit Gigastudio 3 sampler format, available individually or bundled together as the 80GB Complete Symphonic Collection (or CSC).
Having recorded their impressive strings samples at the Sonic Temple (a fine classical hall in Roslindale, Massachusetts), Sonic Implants hired the same venue and recording team for their brass, woodwind and percussion libraries. The microphone setup was carefully replicated for each project, ensuring sonic compatibility throughout the entire project. Once again, playing duties were undertaken by musicians from the Boston Pops and Ballet orchestras, with Sonic's Jennifer Hruska overseeing production.
Unlike the East West/Quantum Leap orchestral library and one or two others, CSC doesn't use multiple mic placements to create a choice of listening perspectives; one microphone position is used throughout, with optional release samples tacked on the end of samples to add real-life reverb trails. In the brass, woodwinds and percussion collections, many short notes and hits have three takes, available separately (which is handy for double-and triple-tracking), in key-switchable programs, or in 'round robin' form, where successive strikes of the same key trigger different takes.

Complete Symphonic Collection                         
                                                                 
           The  culmination of the efforts of nearly one hundred 
           recording  engineers,  sound  designers, programmers, 
           and   professional   musicians,  The  Sonic  Implants 
           Complete  Orchestral  Collection  is  the ultimate in 
           beauty,  elegance,  and  power.  A  sample library of 
           intricate   detail   and   precise  programming,  The 
           Complete   Collection  is  also  extremely  playable, 
           making  it the first choice for composers, producers, 
           and players alike.                                    
                                                                 
           The  Sonic  Implants  Complete  Symphonic  Collection 
           isut  the need for additional processing or comprised 
           of     four   volumes,   Strings,   Woodwinds, Brass, 
           and    Percussion.   Recorded  exclusively within the 
           exquisite   Victorian   confines   of   the  renowned 
           Sonic    Temple    in    Roslindale,  MA,  the  Sonic 
           Implants  Symphonic   Collection  offers  exceptional 
           recordings   of   orchestral   instruments  performed 
           by   musicians  from   the  Boston  Pops  and  Ballet 
           orchestras,   captured  in   sparkling  detail  by  a 
           team    of   award-winning  recording  engineers  and 
           honed   to   perfection by a design  crew  with  more 
           than    thirty   years   cumulative  experience    in 
           soundware     development.    Offering    a  singular 
           acoustic    aesthetic    that    is    spacious   yet 
           revealingly      intimate     in   its   ability   to 
           impart  clarity,   depth, and definition to the broad 
           spectrum  of   orchestral   instruments,   the  Sonic 
           Implants  Symphonic   Collection also offers users an 
           orchestral solution   with   prodigious               
           flexibility,     intuitive   programming,    and   an 
           authentic   virtual  soundstage that  allows  for the 
           correct   respective  placement  of  instruments  and 
           sections witho panning.                               
                                                                 
           Of  course,  talk  of  technical  specifics shouldnÆt 
           serve  to  obscure what are, ultimately, the defining 
           characteristics  of  any  sample collection; fidelity 
           and  feel. Creating music is such an elusive pursuit, 
           that  musicians canÆt afford to waste time and energy 
           with  sounds  that  donÆt deliver the goods. From the 
           beginning,  Sonic ImplantsÆ goal has been to create a 
           collection    of    symphonic    instruments    whose 
           expressiveness  and  playability  would  do more than 
           just  serve the composerÆs creative muse, but inspire 
           it.   With  the  completion  of  the  Sonic  Implants 
           Symphonic  Series,  Sonic  Implants is proud to offer 
           an  orchestral  solution  that accomplishes all these 
           goals and much more.
