Ujam launches Symphonic Elements Chooir plugin with Hans Zimmer samples

UJAM introduces Symphonic Elements CHOOIR, a dedicated choir instrument built using samples from the orchestral library of film composer Hans Zimmer. CHOOIR is now available for preorder ahead of its full release on May 13, 2026.

The latest addition to the Symphonic Elements series, CHOOIR joins STRIIIINGS, DRUMS, BRAASS, and PERRCS, rounding out the lineup with a vocal element. Unlike traditional choir sample libraries that require voice-by-voice arrangement, CHOOIR follows UJAM’s Symphonic Elements approach, offering pre-arranged textures that sit naturally within an arrangement. The instrument spans bass, tenor, alto, soprano, and boys ensembles with a range of vowel and consonant articulations.

Whether supporting a string arrangement with a bold choir line or introducing darker vocal textures into ambient productions, its phrase-based structure enables users to generate convincing choir performances without complex key switching or word programming. This allows for a more direct and intuitive workflow.

Achoir has been the number one request from our users, to a degree that it became an in-joke. Iam so happy we could finally close this gap, said Peter Gorges, co-founder of UJAM. Since this is based on Hans own material, users will quickly hear that familiar cinematic palette he is known for come through in their own work.

Key features include choir ensembles from Hans Zimmer’s orchestral library, including male, female, and boys sections. The plugin offers multiple articulations across vowel sounds and consonants and utilizes a phrase-based engine for generating cohesive choir performances. It includes Signature Motion, Character, and Finisher controls for sound shaping. The library contains 100 presets across 9 categories, including basic, epic, and atmospheric textures, along with 70 styles in 9 categories.

Symphonic Elements CHOOIR supports VST2, VST3, AU2, and AAX formats and is compatible with macOS and Windows operating systems.

Pre-order pricing from April 28 through May 12, 2026, is $149. Introductory pricing from May 13 until June 28, 2026, is $189, with a loyalty price of $169. The MSRP is $249, with a loyalty price of $229.
