LA Scoring Strings 2.0 Ultimate – LASS弦乐终极版

LA Scoring Strings 2.0虽是一款顶级弦乐，但是部分功能仍有缺陷。比如键位切换、舞台控制。国外的一位大神制作了这个LA Scoring Strings 2.0 Ultimate版本，利用KSP技术和现存的采样制作了新的音色（主要是混合音色），充分利用了控制器，完善了A.R.C.功能。并且这个版本还修补了一些官方的错误。LA Scoring Strings 2.0 Ultimate可以说超越了原版，不仅仅是一个升级补丁而已。

Since its release in July 2009, Audiobro’s LA Scoring Strings has become a byword for accurate, high-quality orchestral strings emulation. One of the library’s strengths is its flexible section sizes: ensembles are presented in a choice of full, half, quarter (two versions) and solo instrument formats, making it easy to create anything from a string quartet to a large‑scale, 46‑player arrangement. The option of smaller sections also enables authentic divisi part allocation, as used in real‑life orchestrations. True legatos, glissandi and Bollywood‑style portamentos are also key selling points.

Upon LASS’s completion three years ago, its creator Andrew Kerestzes announced that new patches created for his own scoring projects would be posted on Audiobro’s forum, thereby making this an evolving, ‘living library’. The evolution gathered momentum, and, partly in response to user requests, the piecemeal patch‑tweaking approach eventually intensified into a major 2.0 upgrade. In this review, we’ll look at the new features introduced in LASS 2.0 and delve deeper into some of the library’s workings.
