柔和弦乐独奏者

柔和弦乐独奏者以斯堪的纳维亚弦乐为灵感,这种弦乐已成为现代戏剧配乐的主要元素。该作品由小提琴、中提琴和大提琴三重奏组成,演奏时力度更柔和,以唤起更感性和亲密的音调。

作为作曲家,我们经常在为感性或微妙的场景配乐时使用独奏弦乐。然而,我们注意到一个缺陷:许多弦乐库都以更突出和精湛的音调录制,这种音调高于管弦乐队,但不适合更柔和、更亲密的乐曲。

为了解决这个问题,我们创建了柔和弦乐独奏者,这是一个多功能的连奏库,灵感来自流行的"斯堪的纳维亚弦乐",这种声音已成为新古典音乐和当代戏剧配乐的标志。

Soft String Soloists 以独奏小提琴、中提琴和大提琴为特色,利用我们首次在 Brass Band Soloists 中引入的 Smart Legato 引擎,实现超逼真的播放和卓越的控制水平。每种乐器都提供两种令人惊叹的连奏类型(标准和滑音),以及该流派典型的一系列长、短和膨胀的发音。

该库在 Nave Studios 的大厅中以传统的弦乐四重奏布局录制,可完全控制混音,提供近、中、远麦克风位置,让用户实现从私密到宽敞的环境声音的任何效果。借助我们创新的乐器放置功能,每种乐器都可以放置在大厅布局中的任何位置,使乐器能够放置在不同的合奏配置中,以及中央立体声选项,确保轻松与您收藏中的其他库集成。

精密控制
与 Brass Band Soloists 一样,此库也受益于我们创新的智能连奏引擎和乐器放置选项,使作曲任务不再是技术调整,而是创造力。

在智能模式下,乐器会自动分析传入的 MIDI 音符并选择理想的过渡长度,确保无需进一步编辑即可流畅播放,同时提供真实而富有表现力的声音。

此功能的真实性由延迟驱动:通过延迟可听输出,引擎可以"提前"并实时调整性能。延迟越高,乐器的响应越自然。连奏设置中显示的延迟数字是准确的,允许您使用 DAW 中的负轨道延迟功能进行补偿,只要您的 MIDI 是量化的,就可以确保完美的时间。这让您可以更专注于作曲,而乐器会处理更精细的细节。

我们以独特的"斯堪的纳维亚弦乐"风格录制了这些独奏弦乐,这种风格以其轻快、细腻的动态而闻名,展现了弦乐器更柔和、更脆弱的一面。这种风格已成为许多当代新古典主义作品的标志性声音。

这种声音与众不同之处在于其深刻的情感深度。通过捕捉表演者细微的表情,每个样本都与人性化的感觉产生共鸣,使这个库成为探索和演奏的乐趣。

空间位置
与我们许多其他库一样,我们从会话中使用的麦克风阵列中创建了可用于生产的混音。近距离信号可实现超亲密和前置的声音,而远距离麦克风可引入更分散的声音。

乐器放置提供三个灵活的选项。第一个是"原位",将每个乐器放置在传统弦乐四重奏的自然位置。为了获得更具创意的控制,我们创新的自定义位置功能可让您将任何乐器放置在舞台上的任何位置 - 更靠后、更靠前,甚至与其原始位置相反。这样,您可以将乐器放在不同的位置以扩大合奏,或将它们放在舞台中央进行独奏。

对于那些想要尽量减少"In-Situ"设置中的自然声像的人,我们还提供了一个中央立体声选项。这样,您就可以轻松地使用 DAW 的混响和平移工具将乐器与其他库无缝融合,从而最大程度地控制最终的声音。

乐器
我们很高兴再次与 String Formations 背后的室内乐团的首席演奏家合作:Andra Vornicu(小提琴)、Rebecca Stubbs(中提琴)和 Matthew Phillips(大提琴)。凭借他们杰出的才华和不断增长的采样经验,我们建立了牢固的合作关系,为该库中的声音创作带来了独特的协同效应。

SOFT STRING SOLOISTS
Inspired by the signature Scandinavian string sound that has become a staple in modern drama soundtracks, Soft String Soloists features a trio of violin, viola, and cello, performing at a softer dynamic to evoke a more emotive and intimate tone.
As composers, we often find ourselves reaching for solo strings when scoring emotive or subtle scenes. However, we noticed a gap: many of the string libraries out there are recorded with a more prominent and virtuosic tone, which soars above the orchestra but doesn't lend itself to softer and more intimate compositions.

To address this, we created Soft String Soloists, a versatile legato library inspired by the popular "Scandi String" sound that has become a hallmark of neo-classical music and contemporary drama scoring.

Soft String Soloists features solo violin, viola, and cello, utilising our Smart Legato engine, first introduced with Brass Band Soloists, for ultra-realistic playback and an exceptional level of control. Each instrument offers two stunning legato types (standard and portamento), along with an array of long, short, and swelled articulations typical of the genre.

Recorded in a traditional string quartet layout in the hall at Nave Studios, the library provides full control over mix, offering close, mid and far microphone positions, allowing users to achieve anything from an intimate to a spacious, ambient sound. With our innovative Instrument Placement feature, each instrument can be positioned anywhere within the hall layout, enabling the instruments to be placed in different ensemble configurations, as well as a centre stereo option, ensuring easy integration with other libraries in your collection.

SOPHISTICATED CONTROLS
As with Brass Band Soloists, this library also benefits from our innovative Smart Legato engine and Instrument Placement options, making the task of composing less about technical adjustments and more about creativity.

In Smart Mode, the instrument automatically analyses incoming MIDI notes and selects the ideal transition length, ensuring smooth playback without further editing, all while delivering an authentically expressive sound.

The realism of this feature is driven by latency: by delaying the audible output, the engine can 'look ahead' and adjust the performance in real time. The higher the latency, the more naturally the instrument responds. The latency figure shown in the legato settings is accurate, allowing you to compensate with the negative track delay function in your DAW, ensuring perfect timing as long as your MIDI is quantised. This allows you to focus more on composing, while the instrument takes care of the finer details.

We recorded these Solo Strings in the distinctive "Scandi String" style, known for its airy, delicate dynamics that reveal the softer, more fragile side of stringed instruments. This style has become the signature sound of many contemporary neoclassical works.

What sets this sound apart is its profound emotional depth. By capturing the performers' nuanced expressions, each sample resonates with a human touch that makes this library a joy to explore and play with.

SPATIAL PLACEMENT
As with many of our other libraries, we have created production-ready mixes from the array of microphones used in the session. The close signal allows for a super intimate and up-front sound, whilst the far mics introduce a more dispersed sound.

Instrument Placement offers three flexible options. The first, "In-Situ," places each instrument in the natural positions of a traditional string quartet. For more creative control, our innovative Custom Position feature lets you place any instrument anywhere on the stage – further back, closer to the front, or even opposite its original position. This allows you to double instruments across different positions to expand the ensemble or place them in the centre of the stage for solo compositions.

We've also included a Centre Stereo option for those who want to minimise natural panning from the "In-Situ" setup. This makes it easy to use your DAW's reverb and panning tools to blend the instrument seamlessly with other libraries, giving you maximum control over the final sound.

INSTRUMENTS
We were delighted to have once again collaborated with our first chair players from the chamber ensemble behind String Formations: Andra Vornicu (Violin), Rebecca Stubbs (Viola), and Matthew Phillips (Cello). With their exceptional talent and growing experience in sampling with us, we have fostered a strong, collaborative relationship, bringing a unique synergy to the creation of sounds in this library.

Legato (Portamento)
