London Symphonic Strings is an incredible 42GB sample library featuring some of the most beautifully recorded strings in the world. Violins 1, Violins 2, Violas, Cellos and Double Basses have all been recorded in stunning 24bit /48kHz quality with a multitude of articulations and true legato, creating some of the most realistic strings in the world!
London Symphonic Strings contains the standard five section string ensemble (Violins 1, Violins 2, Violas, Cellos, Basses) recorded 24 bit / 48kHz with four mic positions (Close, Main, Rigs and Room) in a beautiful sounding hall. Each section has up to 3 dynamic layers with up to 4 RR per note. The entire string section was recorded in the correct orchestral seating positions, so when you load up the library, each section is correctly positioned in the stereo image, according to how the players are traditionally sat. Multiple true legato patches are included for each section, providing realistic note transitions.
London Symphonic Strings were recorded with a selection of incredible Neumann and Schoeps mics in 4 positions – Close, Main, Rigs and Rooms.
The close position was a pair of Neumanns hovered above each section and the main pair was behind the conductor with a stereo pair and added outriggers allowing you to add that extra width out to the sides.
The rigs mics were a pair of Schoeps along with a pair of outriggers (also Schoeps to match the sound), to add width. The room mics were a pair of Neumanns, for a more ambient hall sound.

- Sustained Legato – (Violin I, Violin II, Violas, Cellos, Basses)
