🎻 Soft String Soloists – The Art of Emotive String Performance 🌟

Inspired by the iconic Scandinavian string sound, Soft String Soloists brings the emotive, intimate tones of solo violin, viola, and cello to your compositions. Perfectly suited for modern drama soundtracks and neo-classical pieces, this library captures the essence of subtlety and depth, making it an indispensable tool for composers seeking a softer, more expressive string presence.

🎶 About The Library

As composers, we often seek that delicate, emotional quality in string instruments—especially for those intimate, nuanced moments that demand subtlety. Traditional string libraries often focus on bold, virtuosic tones, leaving a gap for those softer, more introspective scenes. Soft String Soloists fills that gap, offering a versatile legato library designed specifically for emotive and intimate scoring.

This collection features solo violin, viola, and cello, recorded with a soft dynamic to deliver the signature Scandinavian string sound. Using the same Smart Legato engine from our Brass Band Soloists, this library ensures ultra-realistic playback and total control over your performance.

🎻 Key Features:

• Two Legato Types: Choose between standard and portamento legato for seamless, realistic phrasing.
• Wide Articulation Range: Includes long, short, and swelled articulations, offering the versatility needed for diverse compositions.
• Innovative Microphone Positions: With close, mid, and far mic positions, easily tailor your sound from intimate to ambient.
• Instrument Placement Control: Place each instrument anywhere within the hall, giving you the flexibility to create various ensemble configurations or position them centrally for seamless integration with other libraries.
  🎶 Sophisticated Controls for Effortless Composition 🎶Unlock the power of Smart Legato Engine and Instrument Placement with our advanced library, designed to make your composing process smoother and more intuitive than ever before. 🎹✨

  In Smart Mode, the instrument analyzes incoming MIDI notes and seamlessly adjusts transition lengths, ensuring smooth, expressive playback without the need for manual edits. Perfect for when you want to focus purely on your creative flow! 🎼🔧

  What sets this apart is the groundbreaking latency-driven realism—our engine “looks ahead” and fine-tunes the performance in real time. The higher the latency, the more natural and expressive your instrument sounds, giving you lifelike dynamics with every note you play. 🎻

  And don’t worry about timing—our accurate latency settings allow you to adjust with ease using your DAW’s negative track delay function, keeping everything perfectly synced. No more stressing over technical details—just pure creativity! 🎶✨

  🎵 Features:

  • Smart Legato Engine for seamless transitions
  • Real-time performance adjustments for natural expressiveness
  • Negative track delay compensation for flawless timing
  • Focus on creativity while we handle the technicalities!
