Details
Recorded at AIR Studios, the library features a variety of articulations, including longs, shorts, and tremolos, across 21 distinct options. The instrument is designed to provide a dynamic response, with the ability to perform at extremely soft levels while maintaining clarity and expressiveness. The ensemble includes solo strings, chamber strings, and symphonic strings, ensuring a broad tonal palette for scoring.
The close capture technique enhances the intimate timbre, preserving key and breath details, while the GUI offers intuitive controls for shaping dynamics and articulations. This makes it suitable for a range of scoring contexts, from film to contemporary compositions, where both subtlety and grandeur are required.
