decent sounding choirs....

[jjaammeess84]

does anyone know of some kind of software that has decent sounding choirs. I bought hypersonic 2 but must of the choirs sound really fake.
By decent sounding, im after something similar to the ones danja used in "chitty rollin"....ones with some gravitas not just "airy" crap.(http://www.myspace.com/danjahandz). I guess hes probably using some seriously expensive hardware but is there anything reasonably priced that sounds close?

man you have to layer your choir sounds to make them sound real, and try adding a choir effect as well. But layering is the trick, ive got some good choir sounds through an fl stock sound, and i just layered about 3 voices, and it sounded good.

Hypersonic is more for bread and butter type sounds.
For good choir sounds you need something from a
East West plugin.Maybe EW.QL.Symphonic.Choir<wbr>

If you want really good free ones, go to the nearest library, and get a bunch of opera cds and sample them. That's where i got the sounds for the beat in my sig, let me know how you think it sounds.

Perhaps danja is using http://www.spectrasonics.net/libraries/symphonyvoices.php
or maybe he just sampled them for free

You could spend $15 and sample a couple songs from here (legally)

just click on recordings and it'll take you to the page you can buy from.
