Perfect Violins for Motown, Funk, and Soul
When you really think about classic R&B, funk, and soul, it's easy to spot how important strings are. Specifically, violins, like what you get in Big Fish Audio Vintage Strings, make up the brunt of the smooth, shimmering accents that often set the mood. Composers here at Sweetwater really appreciate the way Big Fish divided these violins into three ensemble sizes (2, 6, and 12), allowing you to easily change the intensity and complexity of the sound to fit your piece. And because Vintage Strings taps into the incredible power of Native Instruments Kontakt 5 (Kontakt 5 Player included), you get realistic articulation control plus tons of little nuances and idiosyncrasies.

Choose your ensemble size
What's the perfect ensemble size for your string section. If you're trying to re-create classic Motown vibe, then maybe you want a doubled 6-violin section, but classic R&B and old-time soul may have only had a couple violins. Or maybe you want the glassy shimmer of a full 12-violin section. What's wonderful about the options you get in Vintage Strings is that they let you easily create the size and composition of the violin ensembles you want, without getting into overwhelming complex or overwhelming string sections.
