Strike Strings by Filipe Leitao

Looking for that driving, cinematic string energy without the hours of tedious MIDI drawing? Strike Strings by Filipe Leitao is a purpose-built Kontakt instrument designed to get professional, high-tension string arrangements into your DAW in seconds.

Whether you are scoring a high-stakes chase scene, building a trailer riser, or adding rhythmic grit to a modern pop production, this library bypasses the "blank page" syndrome by providing instantly playable phrases and chords that lock to your project’s tempo.

The Problem it Solves

We’ve all been there: you need a complex string ostinato, but by the time you’ve programmed the velocities, chosen the right articulations, and balanced the sections, the creative spark is gone. Strike Strings changes the workflow. Instead of building from individual notes, you trigger professionally performed phrases and harmonic progressions that sound "finished" from the first key press.

What’s Under the Hood?

The library is split into two distinct engines Phrases and Chords giving you both rhythmic movement and harmonic foundation:

• 17 Unique Phrase Styles: Ranging from aggressive 4/4 ostinatos to complex odd-meter patterns (5/8, 7/8), these phrases provide the kinetic energy required for action and suspense.

• 15 Expressive Chord Performances: Covering Major, Minor, and Sus4 variations across all 12 keys. You can switch between tonalities on the fly using key switches, making it easy to follow your song's progression.

• Three Mix Variations: Every preset comes with Full, High, and Low string options. This allows you to stack layers, create call-and-response patterns, or carve out space for dialogue and other instruments.

• Bonus MIDI Collection: For those who want total control, the library includes 744 drag-and-drop MIDI files. Move the patterns to your favorite synth, brass, or woodwind libraries to create a cohesive orchestral arrangement.

Why You Need This Now
