Cinesamples – CineStrings Core 2.0.1

CineStrings Core is our flagship orchestral string library, recorded at the MGM Scoring Stage at Sony Pictures Studios by Chief Engineer Dennis Sands. This library is part of the CineSymphony series and pairs well with our CineBrass , CineWinds , and CinePerc libraries , all created on the same legendary Hollywood stage.

CineStrings Core (like our other CineSymphony libraries ) features an intuitive, easy-to-use graphical interface with quick-select presets to help you write, program, and mix to your needs. The mapping page lets you quickly adjust speed, key switching, or even a MIDI continuous controller (CC). The mixer page lets you quickly access the full mix or four other microphone positions. The settings page allows for advanced control over each of these patches for sound design, programming, and other useful features.

CineStrings Core contains a basic set of articulations needed to perform most traditional string writing and programming operations.
