String Sounds Worthy of the Big Screen
Compose Oscar-worthy cinematic arrangements with Hollywood Strings, an exciting release from the virtual instrument masters at EastWest/Quantum Leap. This brilliant plug-in features a near-endless catalog of string articulations and sounds, each meticulously recorded for flawless quality. The emphasis for this amazing creative tool is on giving you an extraordinary range of expression; it's like having a first-call symphonic string section under your baton, at any hour of the day. Every section - 1st and 2nd violins, violas, cellos, and basses - was sampled with extended ranges; and, of course, the musicians were recorded using nothing but the finest gear, including a Neve 8078 mixing console and premium microphones.



Multiple articulations and five mixable mic positions
Recorded in EastWest's famous Studio 1 (the birthplace of major Hollywood soundtracks and TV themes) by Grammy and Academy Award-winning scoring engineer Shawn Murphy, the 24-bit samples of EastWest Hollywood Strings Diamond Edition are pristine and gloriously detailed, and the collection gives you unprecedented control over the expressiveness and sound of the instruments with up to five mixable mic positions and dozens of per-instrument articulations; including pizzicato, staccato, ricochet, spiccato, tremolo, marcato, flautando, harmonics, and many more.

Includes the custom PLAY interface
EastWest Hollywood Strings includes the custom PLAY advanced sample engine, designed to give you deep access to the sounds within. This 64-bit interface (with 32-bit support) lets you load multiple instruments, so you can easily craft custom split and layered setups that make it effortless to perform with multiple instruments and entire instrument sections. It also allows you to go really deep with your sounds, such as adjusting envelopes and the addition of various sample reproduction tools for tweaking your instruments to perfection.

Holy grail orchestral samples
For composers at Sweetwater, EastWest's Hollywood Orchestra series is truly a "desert-island" orchestral library, packed with holy grail samples that put the sound of Hollywood blockbusters right at your fingertips. The collection and its sections, which are available separately, have received critical acclaim from the music press, including Electronic Musician's Editor's Choice Award and Future Music's Platinum Award. These publications, and others, cite the samples' stunning detail, superior true legato, and overall sonic quality, as well as the amazing control you get with five mic positions, including the main Decca tree; mid, close, and surround mic arrays, as well as an alternate vintage 1945 RCA ribbon room mic. Bottom line, EastWest Hollywood Strings is a must-have compositional tool for the serious composer.

EastWest Hollywood Strings Diamond Edition Features:
- Pristine 24-bit, 44.1 kHz samples
- EastWest PLAY Advanced Sample Engine provides sophisticated performance options and reverb
- Includes EW Studio 1 convolution reverb impulses
- 5 mixable mic positions
- Multiple articulations available for nuanced, lifelike compositions
- Recorded by top industry engineers and producers in Studio 1 at EastWest Studios

Monstrous! Someone asked before but the reply got deleted.

Is this the biggest single release ever posted that wasn't a compilation?

100% Agree! The best comment for years!

Thank you DECiBELLE for all the great Releases you ever done!

quote by SamplemanLet me guess, the OP should minifi this for some? Some of you are the most ungrateful little fucks I've ever heard in my life. And no one cares how much hard drive space you have, fuck your hard drive space. You literally don't have to download it, you can keep your little insignificant hard drive and musical career all in one box and toss it in the ocean, for all we care.
The fact that this was released, then shared, then repackaged and uploaded is amazing! Please if you don't have any sort of thanks to say, shut the hell up, and keep it moving!

Huge appreciation to Uloader & TEams behind.

Quick question, as I've read, of course EastWest has a new player that is Opus etc..
Is this library part of the "Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition"
https://www.soundsonline.com/hollywood-orchestra-opus-edition

Or is it completely different? Just trying to rap my head around and make sure if I download this, this library will be part of the "Hollywood Orch. Opus Edition"

Any input is welcome.

Cheers ;-)

quote by holdupIf a newer version gets released, you will be able to update this one to the newer version. So no need to redownload.

I don't know the East West ecosystem, so a quick question about this. Do you need everything from them to do a possible upgrade to Opus, or can you upgrade specific libraries like this one to Opus? Basically, do you have to download every single EW library if you want to do the upgrade at some point?
  Member 4.08.2015 38 632

The Opus is simply EW's new sampler. It's compatible with all their libraries, but it's by no means required just to have it. The Hollywood Orchestra "Opus Edition" is the legacy Hollywood Orchestra + new content, Opus Sampler and Opus Orchestrator.

To use "Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition", you'd have to download these old libraries. The Opus stuff (bug fixes, new string/brass/woodwind sections, etc) is meant to add onto it, not replace it.

Thank you! I suspected as much. My question was rather. Do I need all of the EW legacy content to use Opus in any way, or could I get the Opus upgrade if I only had specific libaries, like the strings for example?
  Member 4.08.2015 38 632
+1974
Mmhmm. As before, Opus is simply the sampler and nothing more. You can use it with all the libraries or none of them. If you only have the Strings library and that's it, then you can use them with Opus without any restriction.

The "Opus Edition" is a bit of a misnomer because it implies more than what it actually is. It's just the Hollywood Orchestra + additional content w/ the Opus Sampler and Orchestrator. To 'use' it, you'd have to have the original Hollywood Orchestra installed since the new stuff adds to it and doesn't replace it. Nothing of the sort applies to any of EW's other releases and can immediately be usable with the Opus Sampler whether you have one library or all of them :).

Just when I think these can't get any bigger a new one comes out that's not what I was expecting. Surely this is the biggest library available? Is there going to be a 1 TB size library? Are all the samples at 24/96khz I'm assuming? Holy shit, it's a good thing there are 18 TB hard drives available.

Hey all,

First off, somehow my initial post isn't showing up, so if this is a repeat, please forgive.

Thanks so much to all involved. I dl'd this beast and am excited to use it. But upon extraction (the first extraction into the 2g rar units) I get This error. "packed data checksum error in...dcb-4836-r33" and a similar error for r.71

Would love to know how to fix without having to re-dl the entirety of the beast.

Thanks
