REQ: Spitfire Symphonic Strings v1.4.2
If there was a single product that could sum up the foundation of Spitfire's approach to sampling, it would be this. Recorded in London at a studio that has played host to scores from the highest grossing blockbusters — Lyndhurst Hall at AIR Studios — we've used the same first-call session players playing the same instruments, sampled with our usual more is more approach.
If you want that blockbuster sound, you have to go bold. If you want cinematic, you have to go big. Featuring 60 players performing 175 articulations, including legatos, this is the ultimate encyclopaedic collection of symphonic strings sampling.
