 Spitfire Audio – Symphonic Strings

Product Details: Our definitive string orchestra  { https://soundbanks.io/product/spitfire-audio-symphonic-strings/ }

If there was a single product that could sum up the foundation of Spitfire’s approach to sampling, it would be this. Recorded in London at the iconic Lyndhurst Hall at AIR Studios — a renowned location that has hosted scores from the highest-grossing blockbusters — Spitfire Audio Symphonic Strings represents the essence of cinematic sound. Featuring 60 of the world's finest session string players, all using the same instruments, this collection is the ultimate encyclopaedic compendium of symphonic string sampling.

When you need that cinematic, blockbuster sound, you have to think big. You have to be bold. This library provides the tools to do just that. With 175 articulations, including multiple variations of legato, the Symphonic Strings library offers you a wide range of possibilities for orchestral string writing.

14 2nd violins
12 violas

These players bring life to over 175 articulations, covering everything from 59 short articulations, 94 long articulations, and 5 legato patches, which have been programmed by Andrew Blaney. The recordings are presented with three essential and versatile microphone positions, providing depth, clarity, and flexibility.

In addition to the individual sections, the library includes an array of articulations and techniques designed for easy access and playability. The specially curated ‘Ensemble’ tool allows for fast composition, providing you with instant access to key performance techniques like vibrato, expression-controlled 'dolce', and some of the most innovative articulations ever created for strings.
