The concept of combining orchestral instruments with dance music is not new. We heard it in 90s house strings, the "stabs" of 2000s trance, and the epic breakdowns of modern progressive house. However, until Expansion Pack 23, producers often had to layer a Kontakt library (for strings) with a Sylenth1 patch (for the synth bass).

The reFX Nexus Dance Orchestra Expansion Pack 23 UPD eliminates that workflow friction. This expansion merges the two worlds into a single, cohesive instrument. refx+nexus+dance+orchestra+expansion+pack+23+upd

Now that you have the updated pack installed, how do you use it to sound professional? Here are five workflows.

Producers often struggle to make orchestral VSTs sound "in place" inside a digital mix. Realistic orchestras often sound too dry or dynamic for electronic music. Nexus solves this by baking in the processing. Dance Orchestra 23 comes pre-effected with lush halls, tight compressors, and stereo widening that makes these sounds feel like they belong in a festival mainstage set.
