1000's of User Demos!
The Garritan Community boasts perhaps one of the largest community
of contemporary composers, creating breathtakingly innovative and
groundbreaking modern music. There are thousands of user demos on our
Demos Page and the Garritan Forum. These demos are not professionally
produced (in order to make a more favorable impression) but produced
by users like yourself, in real world use. From Award Winning
composers to hobbyists, to students, to performers; people who work
in notation and those who use sequencers -- this wonderful community
is daily building an incredible body of music unlike any other.
Where In the World Are You? The Garritan GuestMap (by Google Maps) allows you to show where you
are on the World GuestMap and you can also leave a message. You can
click on other users' locations and read their message. Take Me to
