Chamber Strings Adaptive

  • Stunning chamber sound; amazing playability.
  • Incredibly flexible "ensemble' patches.
  • For "ensemble" patches, each section can contain ANY short or long articulation (spiccato, staccato, detache, pizzicato, col legno, Bartok pizzicato, sustain, tremolo, major trill, minor trill).
  • Silky smooth slurred or bowed legato.
  • Flexible legato choices: Polyphonic, non-polyphonic, intense, mild, bowed.
  • Vibrato and dynamics can "chase" velocity smoothly EVEN on held notes.
  • Go from punchy and aggressive marcatos to silky smooth legatos with no keyswitching or controllers.
  • Two different portamento styles.
  • Extensive modeling to conserve the memory footprint.
  • Flexible vibrato control.
  • Added automation page for controlling such things as articulations, vibrato, dynamics and more via MIDI CC.

Recorded at the First Presbyterian Church, Santa Monica where A-list Los Angeles-based orchestras record and perform.
