BLOCKBUSTER STRINGS REIMAGINED

  • Creative control and musicality meet stunningly realistic sound
  • Compose thrilling string parts with a range of articulations captured from multiple mic positions
  • Over 31 GB of dynamic phrases that can be tweaked and blended in limitless combinations


FLEXIBILITY MEETS REALISM

ACTION STRINGS 2 introduces Live Modules – mini-phrases that have been meticulously recorded at different pitches and dynamic intensities, and then combined to create hundreds of phrases and themes. These innovative building blocks can be fused together in countless combinations to deliver the best of both worlds – incredibly natural-sounding string parts combined with a level of freedom and versatility that simply couldn’t be achieved with a single-note library. Chop up, duplicate, and infinitely tweak elements of phrases, to create your own individual flourishes, runs and swells.

LIMITLESS BIG-SCREEN SHINE

Recorded by the Hungarian Studio Orchestra in the renowned TOM TOM Studio D, the extraordinary sounds of ACTION STRINGS 2 were captured in fine detail from five mic positions. Delivered with sparkling reverb and EQ effects, these exhilarating melodies, driving rhythms, and forceful chords are ready to give your scores instant orchestral drama.
