Digital Sound Factory St. Thomas Strings KONTAKT screenshot
P2P | 03 Feb 2017 | 392 MB
Saint Thomas Strings is a collection of string ensembles recorded in the amazing Saint Thomas Cathedral at Bastyr University in Northern Washington State in the US. The cathedral is 48 feet tall and features unusual near-perfect acoustics that attract frequent recording sessions for Hollywood films. Scores for "Brokeback Mountain," "About Schmidt," "Mr. Holland's Opus," "Mirror Mirror,", and orchestral tracks for Dave Matthews album have been recorded here. The cathedral is wired so that a modified bus configured for recording can pull up and plug into the pre wired snake to track the performance. Four pairs of microphones, both on stage and in the hall, were used to capture various size sections that are recombined.

Microphone pairs - Neumann KM140, AMS250 Soundfield, B&K4001, & Schoeps KFM6U

It must be those crappy mics, those Schoeps are totally garbage, LOL!

But seriously, the B&K 4001 is not a microphone. It is a sine wave sweep tool! It is probably a typo. Perhaps it is meant to say 4011 which are VERY flat, amazing high end SDC mics. Peter Gabriel uses them in his studio.
Music is always a commentary on society.

I agree with all the comments, the demo is absolutely awful, almost surreal.

these were the basis for the EMU Virtuoso 2000 module strings 16 years ago.

My we've come a looong way since then!

Sometimes this type of string "not 100% real" are more suitable for electronic music

If you could get amazing strings sampled under 400 Mb, there wouldn't be much point dev's releasing 60 GB string library's.
Ear's are the spec I go by
