Audio Plugin Deals are offering 73% off Angel Strings Vol. 2 by Auddict for a limited time, now only $39.99, (usually $150.00). The offer ends June 5th.
Weighing in at a massive 10GB, Angel Strings Vol. 2 explores even more specialised string articulations and various orchestral textures. which includes completely unique, never before sampled articulations and an entire string orchestra range playable via keyboard-wide sample maps.
This library was recorded at Angel Studios in London, where countless pop/rock stars have recorded (notably Adele’s “21”), and many major film and video game scores have been recorded, including The Lion King, Jackie, Blue Planet, Planet Earth, Horizon: Zero Dawn and many more.
With this Vol.2 of Angel Strings exploring even more specialised string articulations and various orchestral textures, the Auddict team decided that it will be released as a series of slightly smaller, expansion-pack style libraries. The advantage of this is that you can now choose exactly which articulations and techniques you’d like to purchase and add to your composing palette. These libraries will run separately, and do not require Angel Strings Vol.1 to run.
The “flurries” refer to specially orchestrated sequences of notes played in quick succession by each player, creating a beautiful and lush string sound, which – due to the subtle spontaneity of the individual players – can really create the feeling of a real orchestra playing. We recommend watching the videos and listening to the demos as this is best demonstrated with music rather than words!
This instrument is organised into five main articulations, each one having an almost keyboard-wide palette of sounds to choose from. five articulations are named:
- Ionian Flurries 3/5’s
- Aeolian Flurries 3/5’s
- Ionian Flurries + Bar
- Aeolian Flurries + Bar
- Fifths and Unis
The different articulation names refer simply to major and minor tonalities, as well as the notes used/techniques included. “Bar” stands for bariolage, which is a string technique where players quickly sweep the bow up and down the different strings to create quick arpeggios. Ionian can simply be thought of as “major” and Aeolian as “minor”, so depending on whether your music/chord is major or minor, you’d know which articulations to use. Fifths and unis are just that, and can be used in any tonality!.

- 10 GB of sample content
