Vienna's Standard and Extended Solo Strings Libraries
Digital orchestrators rejoice! Vienna Symphonic Library Solo Strings 1 Full Library expands on previous libraries and offers embedded intelligent Performance Algorithms in an easy-to-use VST/AU plug-in to orchestrate an inconceivably vast array of samples. For the first time, hundreds of articulations can be combined in one preset and on a single MIDI track. Vienna's proprietary Performance Detection analyzes intervals, repeated notes, patterns, and even speed in real time and automatically summons the appropriate articulation or nuance. For real-deal solo strings, reach for VSL's Solo Strings 1 Full Library. Composers at Sweetwater love Solo Strings I!
