Vienna Symphonic Library – Studio Dimension Strings (Bundle)

When you’re seeking more nuance and want to explore all the tonal dimensions that string ensembles offer, this collection is perfect for composers and producers alike. Our “Flexible Five“ – five string sections that master any task from classical symphonic playing to scene-stealing film scoring – give you flexibility and tweakability through access to each individual player of the ensemble, either automatically or through your own adjustments. 

The result is as life-like as it gets, as the “Humanize Presets” add those subtle timing and pitch imperfections that happen naturally during a live performance to each player of the ensemble, scalable in real-time.

This collection adds yet another dimension to your strings: Sordinos (mutes) tone down the sound but at the same time open up new sonic worlds. String instruments become gently subdued, as if shrouded in a soft veil. 

Music played with mutes carries the air of suggestive subtlety, like a whispered conversation between musician and listener. What’s left unspoken carries heightened impact and emotional weight. It’s no wonder that rutracker this particular technique is a favorite among Hollywood composers. 

With this collection you can explore its entire expressive potential with ease, precision and authenticity. Thanks to the Humanize Presets, subtle timing and pitch imperfections can be automatically applied to each individual musician in the ensemble, creating even more lifelike and natural performances.

In our never-ending quest to sample every detail and intricacy of orchestral instruments this is the next step, capturing one of the subtlest and most delicate playing techniques in all its soft ethereal shimmer: sul tasto. In this playing technique the bow is drawn near the fingerboard, producing a magical, ethereal sound. 

As the bow gently moves closer to this region of the instrument, the sharpness of the tone subsides, giving way to a mellower, warmer sound – comparable to a breath or a whisper. This almost poetic and incredibly atmospheric technique is remarkably versatile. With this collection, you can harness its alluring beauty with uncompromising authenticity. 

Thanks to the Humanize Presets, subtle timing and pitch imperfections can be automatically applied to each individual musician in the ensemble, creating even more lifelike and emotional performances.
