Soaring Strings: Stringed Instruments
Adventure Strings: Orchestral
Over a year in the making, recorded in the same room with the same number of players, this collection epitomizes all of the sampling disciplines to date. With an emphasis on strong, energetic performances, the Soaring Adventure Bundle is a versatile assembly of articulations designed for a variety of dramatic, musical contexts.
- Soaring Strings -
With four layers of legato samples, Soaring Strings adapted a uniquely musical approach to recording the legato intervals. Coupled with some inventive programming techniques and LOTS of polish, the resulting legato instruments are affecting, smooth and responsive.
With so many great legato string libraries out there, why another one? Because Soaring Strings focuses on performance, by having the players really dig in with the vibrato and giving you all they had with the triple forte dynamic. This also meant approaching the sessions in a unique, musical way to capture the kind of singular legato everybody is looking for.
Keep things simple
Another focus was to dial things back and to confine oneself to the essentials of producing credible string arrangements in a shorter amount of time:
A single, natural mix and omitting seldom-used legato articulations
A "Sustain Sync" feature that synchronizes the starting sustain with the following intervals/repetitions, which saves you from having to make adjustments to start-notes
A "To Silence" button that can enable the modwheel to completely diminish the softest dynamic to silence
Recording a medium-sized ensemble provides both "solo-istic" detail and natural transparency

- Adventure Strings -
By sourcing all the short articulations from repetition phrases, Adventure Strings became an exercise in post-production patience. The result? Shorts with real momentum, consistency and an affinity for round-robin fans.
Adventure Strings is the follow-up to the debut offering, Soaring Strings. Performed by the same number of players, recorded in the same room, seated in their traditional positions - both share the same performance aesthetic. Strong, passionate and relentlessly energetic.
So why another string library with the same, familiar collection of short articulations? Well, it's how Musical Sampling produced them that makes it interesting.
Shorts are normally recorded in isolation - perhaps one or two notes per bar during the recording process. This makes the editing process a snap and the end result is often satisfactory. The sane choice.
With Adventure Strings, Musical Sampling recorded repetition phrases; a quick succession of notes at a procured tempo. The samples of each note of that phrase were then edited and programmed to be playable, which resulted in a fetal position-incurring post-production process.
