Did You Know a String Orchestra Could Sound Like This?

Angel Strings Vol.1

Strings Like You've Never Heard Them.

  • Whole orchestra, one patch

    Play violins I & II, violas, celli, and basses across one keyboard—or split out individual sections when you need them.

  • Eleven mic positions

    Captured like a film scoring date: multiple perspectives you can blend for close detail, stage width, or room.

  • Never-sampled colours

    Trailer textures, divebombs, risers, scratches, sul pont/tasto, behind-the-bridge, tempo-locked tremolo—and shorts with up to 15 round robins.

Strings Like You've Never Heard Them.

Angel Strings Vol.1

Music composition and production is constantly evolving, and the tools used to create music need to evolve along with this. The concept for this library involved capturing colours from a string orchestra which have not yet been recorded for any sample library, and place them at your fingertips, ready to compose and perform with.

Angel Strings Vol.1 Includes textural elements, morphing into/out from atonality, risers/divebombs ideal for building tension (for example in trailer music), different styles of spiccato/staccato, marcato to soft attacks with sustains, fast tempo-locked tremolo for powerful driving string hooks and more...

The techniques and articulations available in Angel Strings Vol.1 were cleverly recorded with the entire string orchestra in the same room all at once, in a way that seamlessly blends from the bottom of the range (double basses) to the highest violin notes. You can play the entire orchestra with each articulation across a single keyboard with a single NKI, making this library perfect for anything from merely sketching your ideas out on a full keyboard range - to easily executing unique parts for your final compositions.
