Unleash the Power of Solo and Ensemble Strings

The Aria Sounds Complete Strings Bundle provides you with:

• Exquisite Solo Performances with the LSS Solo Strings Bundle: This library features dedicated solo instruments – violin, viola, cello, and double bass. Each instrument was sampled in a large, beautiful concert hall with multiple microphones, providing four main mixable mic perspectives: close mono, close pair, mid room, and far room. This vast sonic range allows you to craft everything from dry, intimate sounds to naturally reverberated, distant tones.
  • Experience unparalleled legato control with three sampled legato modes: slurred, bowed, and portamento, easily switchable via keyswitches.
  • Take advantage of a unique feature allowing you to change bow on the same note by holding the note and pressing a low G keyswitch.
  • Add dynamic expression with staccato (featuring 24 variations per note to avoid repetition) and whole tone trills, also selectable via keyswitches.
  • Shape the end of your phrases with the ability to alter the release sound, choosing between a soft release (normal bow removal) and a hard release (sharp crescendo and quick accented lift of the bow) via keyswitching.
  • Please note that the full version of Kontakt 4 or above is required to run the LSS Solo Strings Bundle. It is not compatible with the free Kontakt Player.
• Grand Orchestral Presence with the London Symphonic Strings: Immerse yourself in the sound of a full symphony orchestra with this incredible 42GB sample library. Featuring Violins 1, Violins 2, Violas, Cellos, and Double Basses, all recorded in stunning 24bit / 48kHz quality.
  • Benefit from four distinct microphone positions: Close (Neumanns above each section), Main (stereo pair and outriggers behind the conductor), Rigs (Schoeps with outriggers), and Room (Neumanns), giving you ultimate control over the sonic texture.
  • Each string section offers up to 3 dynamic layers with up to 4 round robin variations per note, ensuring a natural and dynamic performance.
