Welcome to LCO Producer Strings
Welcome to the LCO Producer Strings online manual. Learn how to use all features in detail and create your own sounds.
LCO Producer Strings puts you in the conductor's seat and dares you to break the rules. It’s a modern string library with a twist – where the finest musicians, bold orchestrations, and expert sound design come together. Built with pop, alternative, hip hop, and experimental productions in mind, this isn’t about emulation, it’s about expression.
LCO Producer Strings is powered by a flexible four-layer engine that lets you stack violins, violas, cellos, and synths into vivid, kaleidoscopic textures. Layers can be filtered by instrument type and performance technique. Each layer is easy to shape with dedicated controls for volume, tuning, and space, or jump straight into presets for instant, production-ready arrangements. From cluster blooms and harmonic trills to percussive pizzicatos, layers feature both classic and creative performance techniques. Each was designed to be playable, cinematic, and instantly usable across genres, giving tracks a unique voice and emotional contour.
All sounds were captured at London’s iconic RAK Studios, in partnership with acclaimed engineer Fiona Cruickshank. Explore the beauty of the raw sounds or blend them with synthetic sources for colorful textures. Layer organic bowed sections with evolving synth beds and granular textures for hybrid timbres. Built-in effects and modulation routing let you push signals toward lush shimmer, gritty saturation, or otherworldly spectral movement while keeping everything musical and mix-ready.
