    I have MA4 and OT both Inspire things.
    I have two templates, one is Inspire 1 and 2, and another is Metropolis Ark 4.

    What more do I need to be able to produce trailer like (No hybrid, just NO!) cinematic stuff?
    Please do not advice huge libraries...
    I need good percussion, orchestral and epic, and any other instrument/s?

    Project SAM True Strike for perc? The Orchestral Brass is quite good. Symphobia probably too big, but it's good.
    But "trailer like" is usually more 'epic', rather than 'cinematic'. Two quite different things, from how I hear it talked of by others.
    Metropolis definitely falls into Epic. Trailers would probably use something 'hybrid' like Damage for perc.
    Small tools for individual instruments, like the Garritan Cello and Violin? Quite useful in the mix.
    Also Chris Hein stuff. These smaller tools along with what you already have would give you more flexibility, imho.
    But if you're adamant in using ensemble stuff, it seems you have two good libs already.

    You need to be a musician not a template collector.

    There's a compilation of the Symphobia series, Orchestral Essentials I and II. Very good stuff.

    The bigger the file size, the better the sound. The better the sound, the more royalties you accumulate. The more royalties you accumulate, the bigger the ssd you can buy. The bigger the ssd you can buy, the more big libraries you can download, which brings us back to step 1.

    Please, don't take it the wrong way, but if you don't know what you need, you don't know what you're doing.
    Be sure on what you're doing, and questions like that will disappear.

    Ark 1 is still the best all rounder. All 4 compliment each other from big, subtle to Ark 3 being percussive.
    What you have should still suffice.

    Watch tutorials on YouTube from guys like Daniel James. Other than that, pick a theme and score it

    The guys at Orchestral Berlin must have gained a lot of royalties...
