A SHIFTING EDIFICE OF SOUND

Threnody Strings sampled a massive string section of 60 musicians, creating a textural playground of col legno clattering, clusters, “clouds” of activity, and arcs of glissandi. Avant-garde & extended playing techniques like these have long been a foundation for sci-fi and horror soundtracks. Threnody features 26 different articulations sampled across the entire orchestral range, which can be layered with an X-Y controller to create entirely new orchestral shapes and movements.

ABOUT SONICCOUTURE

Since 2005 Soniccouture has redefined sampling as a medium for virtual instruments. The first developer to offer specialised single instruments in forensic detail, their work has a living, organic quality that means their instruments are used by musicians and composers across multiple genres and disciplines.
