If you don’t know what that is and need to look it up, don’t worry – I had to look it up too, and it’s apparently an instrument that hasn’t been used much since about 1820. There aren’t a lot of exotic or unusual instruments – no flugelhorn or cimbasso – though there’s a huge selection of percussion including some pretty rare stuff, a harpsichord, a celesta, and two versions of a glass harmonica. The instruments are essentially everything that would be found in a modern symphony orchestra – the usual strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, harps, keyboard instruments and choirs.
The samples are compressed, so the total raw sample size would be a much larger number if they were WAV files. Taking up approximately 12 GB of disk space, Garritan Personal Orchestra 5 is several times larger than GPO 4 was, but still compact by the standards of orchestral libraries these days. It is a 32/64-bit plugin and standalone application for Windows and Mac, and is a complete symphony orchestra. Garritan Personal Orchestra 5 ($149.95 or $49.95 upgrade) is a major update of Garritan’s classic orchestral library.
