Orchestral Strings One was recorded utilizing the legendary
acoustics in the famous Berliner Hall - home of the world class BERLINER
PHILHARMONIKER. Our full string orchestra contains 14 violins,10 Violas, 8
Cellos and 6 Double Basses. Now you're your turn to experience this huge
orchestral section as a useful string instrument. Sound Magic has created
Orchestral Strings One as a single ensemble complete with the beautiful ambience
of this amazing hall. This incredible instrument will quickly become your "go
to" string orchestra. No longer will you have to try and build a similar sound
with several different string instruments or sections, burning up tracks, RAM,
CPU cycles and your valuable time!
Violins, violas, cellos and basses are considered to be
nearly impossible to sample into realistic sounding instruments. And the String
Ensemble is the holy grail of these string instruments.
KVR's Developers Challenge has provided Sound Magic with an
opportunity to push the boundaries of our Hybrid Modeling Technology by creating
Orchestral Strings One. Our quest for extreme realism not only lets us flex our
engineering and computational chops - it gives you an incredibly useful freebie!
If you're familiar with the #2 ranked KVR instrument, Piano
One, you know how clean Sound Magic's efforts are. To ensure the highest sound
quality possible in our samples, we use top-of-the-line gear such as Brauner
Microphones and Neve preamps. Couple this gear with the prodigious Berliner Hall
and Orchestral Strings One is able to push the boundaries of realism - with the
aid of Sound Magic's Award-Winning NEO Hybrid Modeling Technology, of course!
The NEO Hybrid Modeling Engine offers you the best from both
the sampling and modeling worlds. The Authentic Sound of Sampling combined with
the Playability of Modeling makes for a string experience that you have to try
to believe! No steep
hardware requirements here. Orchestral Strings One takes up less than 200MB of disk space and doesn't overly tax your CPU. The NEO Hybrid Modeling Engine gives you absolute control over every aspect of each string - you can even design your own string! There are nearly 20 controls waiting for you to tweak! Some of you (you know who you are!) just HAVE to dial up the legato and velocity, fiddle with the dynamic response, and play with those timbre differences.
Unlike static samples, modeling technology really brings the
Orchestral Strings One to life. And more importantly, Orchestral Strings One
focuses on the continuous flow of melody, not on just a single note. For example,
you can progressively transform a sustained note by first adding slow vibrato,
then medium vibrato and finally fast vibrato. While doing this, you can also use
the expression controller to change from crescendo to decrescendo. This sort of
control is just about impossible to achieve with sampled strings.
Orchestral Strings One is very easy to use. You can play with
all the parameters on the fly with a MIDI keyboard using key switches and
controllers. A keyboard player can easily and freely play our Orchestral Strings
One without any difficulty. It's perfect for a live performance!
