![]() ![]() These patches can be found by going to the library’s “Advanced” folder and clicking the “Individual” sub-folder. While these pre-configured sets of long, short and effect articulations are perfect quick starters, you can of course load each articulation for every instrument individually. You can easily switch between articulations by pressing the according keyswitch, which allows you to quickly create expressive string lines. Upon taking a first look at the library’s file structure, you’ll find 6 instrument patches that each combine sets of the most commonly used articulations. While providing plenty of customization options, you can just as well make your life easy and load up one of Spitfire’s pre-configured Ostinatum presets. It functions like a blend of step sequencer and arpeggiator and allows you to quickly create complex ostinato patterns. ![]() The last control panel, the Ostinatum, is found on all the short articulation patches. You’re also provided with a more detailed mic mix control featuring an individual slider for each of the three available mic positions (Close, Tree, Ambient). It offers a deeper level of control options such as round-robin behavior, sample purging and CC mapping. Additionally, you are provided with various, freely assignable sliders, controlling sound modulation options like Dynamics, Vibrato Release Length and Expression.īy clicking on the white wrench icon in the top-left of the interface you gain access to the General Controls Pane. You’ll also find a simple microphone position slider called ‘Easy Mix’ which lets you blend seamlessly between a close and a far mic position.

Teaming up with 6 of Britain’s most prestigious string players, the developers for yet another time went to AIR Lyndhurst Hall to capture around 41,000 samples and work them into what has become probably the most comprehensive orchestral solo strings library on the market right now. Spitfire Solo Strings is a 66 GB large sample library hosted in Native Instruments’ KONTAKT sampler. In contrast to their other two orchestral string libraries Chamber Strings and Symphonic Strings, which use the original samples of older libraries combined with a completely revamped scripting and programming, the new Spitfire Solo Strings comes with an entirely fresh set of samples. It is now replaced with a completely new solo strings library, one that meets modern standards. Over the course of time, Spitfire Audio gained a huge amount of experience in recording, scripting and sampling which is why they found that it’s time to put the popular but outdated product to its hard-earned retirement. Six years ago, Spitfire Audio released a solo strings library as one of their very first products. Spitfire Solo Strings is a product that brings its developers back to the early days of the brand’s history. ![]()
