Responding to many user requests, the Vienna Symphonic Library team has released a sequel to their successful small strings ensembles. The new Vienna Instruments Collection Chamber Strings II, featuring the small muted sections of violins, violas, cellos, and double basses, is now available from Vienna’s worldwide network of distributors and dealers. The Chamber Strings II collection offers 16.5 GB of all-new articulations and sonic subtleties for the small string ensembles. It contains many of the playing techniques that the first collection includes, but played “con sordino� (with mutes). VSL tell us that they lend themselves well to soft, intimate arrangements, and provide nuanced variations to the user’s orchestral pallette.
The Chamber Strings II collection offers various facets of short and sustained notes, crescendos and diminuendos, but also includes Vienna’s unique Interval Performances, such as legato, portamento, and trill performances. All of the recorded samples were performed by an accomplished ensemble of string players who have been lending their talents and their international experience to the Vienna Symphonic Library for years. VSL say that this collection reflects their mastery over their instruments, bringing the art of chamber music alive in the composer’s personal studio.
Like all Vienna Instruments collections, Chamber Strings II is a sample-based virtual instrument that supports the formats VST (OS X, Win XP/Vista), RTAS (OS X), AU (OS X), and also works stand-alone. Registered users are eligible to download the free mixing and host software Vienna Ensemble 2.
