How would you like to add the detailed, intimate sound of an 11-piece string ensemble to your compositions? Well, with Native Instruments Session Strings 2, you can. Powered by Kontakt, this cutting-edge virtual instrument plug-in contains four violins, three violas, two cellos, and two double basses, all meticulously multi-sampled at a renowned German studio to ensure maximum realism. Session Strings 2 includes a powerful Smart Voice Split function, enabling you to craft authentic-sounding string arrangements with notes that are automatically allocated to the correct instrument group. You can autogenerate fully orchestrated ensemble chords from single keys, while the Rhythm Animator adds arpeggiated motion to your chords. Session Strings 2 also allows you to transform the sound of your ensemble with a quick turn of a knob using robust multi-effect capabilities. Here at Sweetwater, we find Session Strings 2’s exhaustive library of articulations to be among its most powerful features; you can customize your melodies with pizzicato, crescendo, legato, portamento, and all the other expressive elements a human musician would use. Thanks to Native Instruments Session Strings 2, you can have a top-shelf string ensemble on call for all your productions.
