DEFINITIVE STRING SAMPLING
Symphonic Strings has been created with 60 of the world’s finest strings players — 16 1st Violins, 14 2nd Violins, 12 Violas, 10 Cellos & 8 Basses — performing over 175 articulations, including 59 shorts, 94 longs, and 5 legato patches programmed by Andrew Blaney, and presented with three essential and versatile microphone positions. In addition to each individual section, we also offer a comprehensive selection of articulations and techniques presented in our specially curated ‘Ensemble’ tool, offering you instant playability and designed for quick writing. This definitive compendium contains everything from classic and elegant vibrato and expression controlled ‘dolce’ samples, to our own cutting edge techniques designed by our award-winning team of composers and producers, including our hugely popular ‘flautando’ and ‘super sul tasto’ articulations.
