Vienna, the city of music, has always been synonymous with strings and even more so, a distinctive signature string sound. It’s a tone, a timbre and a style of playing you can only find here – and now in your studio too. Blending the lush, romantic flair of Vienna’s musical heritage with the precision and versatility demanded by Hollywood, these high-calibre ensembles were recorded in the large hall of Synchron Stage Vienna, where they performed for hundreds film and TV scores with exactly the same seating and mic setup. Combining unparalleled artistic expression, a wealth of detailed articulations, natural note transitions, and sonic excellence within an easy-to-use product, these next-generation string ensembles stand in a class of their own. No rosin needed.
