Musical Sampling Adventure Strings is a Kontakt-powered virtual instrument with a library that captures short string articulations sourced from performance phrases played by medium-sized string sections. It provides composers, arrangers, and producers with the authentic shapes, articulations, and momentum of repeated phrases captured with musical-context relevance and organized in a collection of 33 patches. The library features molto expressivo vibratos and triple-forte dynamics, and is well-suited for quickly creating credible arrangements with energetic string lines and adventurous passages, ideal for television, film, or game-scoring projects.
Adventure Strings offers medium-sized sections of violins, violas, cellos, and basses recorded at 24-bit / 48 kHz audio resolution on a scoring stage with a traditional seating arrangement. It includes individual pizzicato, marcato, stacc-spiccatos, tremolo, and sustain patches for every individual string section, as well as for Full Strings patches.
The library uses Morph Stacking programming techniques that allow playing any note length while still sounding natural. Patches come with switchable, crossfade/velocity controls to help shape your dynamics, including two attack variations for the Adventure patches and a To Silence function that uses the Mod wheel to fade sound to silence.
Adventure Strings requires a full version of Kontakt 5.5.1 or later (available separately) and can be used as a plug-in or standalone on Mac and Windows computers.
