Description: Created by industry titans Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix, Hollywood Choirs is the best-selling and award-winning product for creating virtual choirs. You have absolute control over a full chorus with dramatic dynamics ranging from soft and lyrical to epic and overwhelming. No matter how big of a story you have to tell, Hollywood Choirs gives you the tools to express it to the fullest. Hollywood Choirs gives you a great way to change the quality of your cinematic compositions or just give you another powerful resource for creating outstanding productions – and you can enter any word into the WordBuilder engine and hear it performed in real time.
Difference between Hollywood and Symphonic:
“Hollywood choirs have only two sections – female and male, while symphony choirs have sections SATB (soprano, alto, tenor, bass), boys and soloists (soprano, alto and boy).
The word builder is much more convincing and easier to use in the Hollywood Choir, and it also sounds more modern overall” (from online reviews).
