Recorded in a dry studio environment, this collection captures the essence of each string instrument in vivid detail, offering a close, intimate sound that retains the unique character of the players.
The library includes a diverse range of articulations, including real Legato, Sustain, Tremolo, Arc Vibrato, Staccato, and more, each recorded with precision to bring depth and realism to any composition.
Designed for flexibility, VIVID STRINGS will be released in sections (V1, V2, Viola, Cello, Double Bass) and eventually as a complete ensemble, making it ideal for composers and producers seeking nuanced and expressive string sounds.
