Details

The instrument includes 52 players and offers a variety of articulations, including sustained notes and staccato phrases, all captured across four mic positions: close, Decca tree, wide, and balcony. This range of captures provides options for both detailed and expansive soundscapes. The engine supports intelligent chord recognition and harmonic shift capabilities, allowing for seamless transitions between different chord voicings and inversions.

Ostinato Strings is designed for rhythmic play, with six preset patterns that can be assigned independently to high and low strings. The MOD wheel controls volume and introduces subtle EQ adjustments, enhancing the dynamic range. Additionally, features like muting individual phrases and adjusting playback speed relative to the DAW's tempo contribute to a flexible workflow. The ability to record and drag MIDI into your DAW further streamlines the integration of these motifs into your compositions.
