Everything you need to make cutting-edge strings music. There is a shift in string writing that is becoming a global movement – based on innovative techniques and performance styles, it’s notoriously impossible to program with the tools currently available. We’ve partnered with the London Contemporary Orchestra, whose work with the likes of Radiohead and Jed Kurzel (Alien: Covenant) has contributed significantly to this shift, to create a string library that gives you access to this unique, experimental palette. This library contains multi-sampled violin, viola, cello and bass sections, and has been recorded at our dry stage in London. With a host of dynamically controllable, never-before-sampled articulations, this rich set of diverse recordings are both playable and musical, and will transform your work.
A distinct collection of multi-sampled, multi-dynamic and most importantly “playable” strings recorded on our dry stage with the LCO by in-demand engineer Joe Rubel and Spitfire’s Head of Product, Stanley Gabriel. We recreated their popular “workshop” approach to playing to curate a musical, deeply versatile set of never-before-sampled articulations – a complete set of playing styles that give you, at long last, an ability to demo and create cutting-edge string writing; the kind of work that is winning hot new composers plaudits across the compositional landscape. From sharply angular to sincere beauty, these up front strings are designed to make you think differently about string writing. And, by encouraging the LCO to create the ‘impossible’ (ie. by recording detuned strings to form playable single instruments), they have embraced technology to deliver us instruments you would never hear outside a sampler. This truly is a unique set of tools.
BACKGROUND
Members of LCO became interested in working with us when we started experimenting with our Evo Grid lines. Over a period of two years we met and talked about how we could make a library that was unlike any other, and it became clear to us that working with the LCO could only lead to that outcome…
Winner of the Ensemble category at the Royal Philharmonic Society Music Awards 2015, the London Contemporary Orchestra has established itself as one of the UK’s most innovative and respected ensembles – promoting the best new music and cross-arts collaborations to an increasingly wide audience. Formed in 2008 by co-Artistic Directors Robert Ames (above left) and Hugh Brunt (above right), the LCO has collaborated with a distinguished array of composers, artists and brands, including Radiohead, Secret Cinema, Actress, Vivienne Westwood, Jonny Greenwood, members of Arcade Fire, Boiler Room, Goldfrapp, Nike, Terry Riley, Beck and Foals. Highlights include sold-out performances at the Roundhouse, Southbank Centre and at the Barbican, There Will Be Blood: Live, the critically-acclaimed site-responsive series Imagined Occasions, and live broadcasts on BBC Radio 3. The orchestra’s soundtrack output features The Master, Theeb, Slow West and Macbeth, and the LCO strings and choir feature prominently on Radiohead’s 2016 album A Moon Shaped Pool.
Creating this library allowed us to do two things: capture the unique techniques and styling of an extremely exciting group of musicians for use in our own compositions and create new instruments with them that could only be possible by harnessing the power of modern sampling technology.
FEATURES
The library comprises recordings of 6 Violins, 4 Violas, 3 Celli and 2 Basses with the Celli in octaves, all in a tight room. Over 100 articulations were captured across all sections and we’ve created a unique ‘Detuned Open String’ instrument for all sections.
For each articulation:
•2 mic positions, Close and Room
•2 individual stereo mixes, Full and Pumped
•2 additional, printed analogue FX
•Integrated reverb, matched to the room, with control on the GUI
GUIS
THE OVERVIEW PANEL
This is the main interface for melodic instruments. Its default view displays all available playing techniques, has a simple microphone mixer and includes the main feature controllers.
GENERAL CONTROLS PANEL
This view allows further in-depth control of the instrument, showing all available signals and feature controllers, as well as the ability to purge techniques from memory to reduce system usage.
THE OSTINATUM
In this view you can add notes to a pattern sequencer, select which key it triggers on and then play for instant ostinato creation. It’s like an arpeggiator on a synthesiser.
制作尖端弦乐所需的一切。字符串编写正在成为一种全球性的运动——基于创新的技术和性能风格,使用当前可用的工具进行编程是众所周知的不可能的。我们与伦敦当代管弦乐团合作,他们与电台司令和杰德·库泽尔(外星人:盟约)等人的合作对这一转变作出了重大贡献,创建了一个字符串库,让您能够访问这个独特的、实验性的调色板。这个图书馆包括多重采样小提琴,中提琴,大提琴和低音部分,并已记录在我们在伦敦的干燥阶段。通过大量动态可控、从未采样过的清晰表达,这组丰富的多样化录音既是可播放的,又是音乐的,并将改变你的工作。
一个独特的收集多采样,多动态,最重要的是“可播放”的字符串记录在我们的干舞台的LCO由需求工程师乔鲁贝尔和喷火的产品负责人,斯坦利加布里埃尔。我们重新创建了他们流行的“工作坊”演奏方法,以策划一套音乐性的、多才多艺的、前所未有的发音——一套完整的演奏风格,最终赋予你演示和创造尖端弦乐写作的能力;这种作品赢得了新作曲家的一致好评。景观。从尖锐的角度到真诚的美丽,这些前置字符串被设计成让你对字符串写作有不同的看法。而且,通过鼓励LCO创造“不可能”(即,通过记录失谐弦来形成可播放的单个乐器),他们已经采用技术为我们提供在取样器外你永远不会听到的乐器。这确实是一组独特的工具。
背景
当我们开始试验Evo网格线时,LCO的成员开始对我们工作感兴趣。在两年的时间里,我们见面并谈论了如何建造一个与众不同的图书馆,并且我们清楚地认识到,与LCO合作只能导致这样的结果……
伦敦当代管弦乐团是皇家爱乐协会音乐奖2015年合唱类别的获奖者,它已成为英国最具创新性和最受尊敬的乐团之一——向日益广泛的观众推广最好的新音乐和跨艺术合作。由联合艺术导演罗伯特·艾姆斯(左上)和休·布鲁特(右上)于2008年组成,LCO与杰出的作曲家、艺术家和品牌合作,包括电台司令、秘密电影院、女演员、薇薇安·韦斯特伍德、乔尼·格林伍德、门廊大火、锅炉房、金弗莱普、耐克、特里·赖利、贝克和福尔斯。精彩节目包括南岸中心圆屋和芭比肯《血色终结:现场直播》、广受好评的现场响应系列片《想像中的事件》以及BBC电台3台的现场直播。管弦乐队的原声带输出功能大师,Theeb,慢西部和麦克白,以及LCO弦乐和合唱团的特点突出地收音机头2016年的专辑月球形状的池。
创建这个库允许我们做两件事:捕捉一群极其令人兴奋的音乐家的独特技巧和造型,用于我们自己的作品,并用他们创造出只有利用现代取样技术的力量才有可能的新乐器。
特征
图书馆包括6首小提琴、4首中提琴、3首大提琴和2首低音提琴八度音的录音,全部在密闭的房间里。超过100个关节被捕获在所有部分,我们已经创建了一个独特的“失调开放弦乐器”的所有部分。
对于每个发音:
·2麦克风位置,关闭和房间
·2独立立体声混合音响,全混音和泵浦
·2附加印刷模拟FX
·集成混响,与房间匹配,在GUI上进行控制

浏览面板
这是旋律乐器的主要接口。它的默认视图显示所有可用的播放技术,有一个简单的麦克风混合器,并包括主要功能控制器。
通用控制面板
该视图允许进一步深入控制仪器,显示所有可用的信号和特征控制器,以及从存储器中清除技术以减少系统使用的能力。
