    The legatos are just right, not overdone. Very natural sounding. The first chairs are also very well-sampled. I would use these to help give the background orchestra more definition. Really like the intimacy of the close mic sounds. Gorgeous library.

  • @AndromedaX8
    @AndromedaX8 Рік тому +2

    Thank you for this great review Chris! I absolutely love this library! The strings sound so fragile and beautiful! This is exactly the kind of tone I've been looking for. I would love to use these strings for emotional and intimate pieces together with piano. I was specifically looking for very soft and fragile sounding string legatos and this library seems to be perfect for that! It's also fantastic that it includes the first chairs as well, which sound really phenomenal! All of the legatos in this library sound really great and realistic, I especially love the three different legatos of the first chairs! The gestures are also very useful and seem like a great way to add even more realism. Even though I love this library so much there is no way for me to get it because even the intro price is far out of my reach. Thank you so much for giving me a chance to dream that it might be possible! :) Also I would like to say a big thank you to Orchestral Tools as well! That's really generous of them to give away three copies of this amazing library! :) P.S. After watching the video again I think this is really my favorite library by OT and one of the most beautiful string libraries available today!

  • @Epicator
    @Epicator Рік тому

    This has to be the most defined and realistic string library I've heard to date. And it has the perfect size in terms of players to be very flexible, both on its own and to layer with. The perfect library for divisi strings, both on its own with the sections with first chairs, or either of these layers with something else. The definition is really mind blowing. I've wanted Elite Strings by VSL since it came out, but I haven't been able to buy it. But now I really want this beautiful library. And it's definitely something I'd use daily for the majority of my projects. I don't buy a library unless it's something I really need and don't already have. And Vasks strings are unique in it's sound as well, and the string sound is perfect for Scandinavian sounding classical music as well, it's so warm, lyrical and delicate with all the details, including the vibrato, it never sounds exaggerated. Less is more. And I can just imagine how beautiful the string quartet arrangements I'd write with Vasks would sound 😍 just listening to these strings evoke my emotions and make me imagine unborn pieces of music 😁

    Another great demo. As a beginner I have little experience with libraries to date, but find myself more attracted to detailed and intimate recordings. Just completed my first piece for cello, the sound of which I really like here along with the viola. I would use a library like this to continue my exploration of composition with a minimal and strong emotional format, which appeals to me greatly.

  • @ucmcomposer
    @ucmcomposer Рік тому

    What a wonderful sound. The marcato for the first chair violin was also very beautiful. The way the player digs into the bow just sounds... . Really helpful in this case that the library is more on the noisy side regarding bow noise etc. The sound is also THE selling point of the library imo. I rarely listen to demos or walkthroughs of sample libraries and rarely am I actually touched by what I'm hearing. Sure it sounds good and cool etc, but emotion is such an important aspect of music making and this library somehow really nails that. It just feels somewhat real to me. I think the space they recorded in also really helps. I agree with you about the gestures. I listened to some of Vasks' music and imo the gestures are his own and unique style. I couldn't really use that. It would feel like plagiarism ;). But the more standard part of of the library? Amazing! There is just something to the sound... . Right up my alley. Wish I could buy the library without the gestures. Probably would have bought it already.

    Gorgeous sound. For me, it’s the fact that they recorded the First Chairs along with the Chamber Sections. Lord knows how I’ve waited for a library that would tackle them both this elegantly.
