Orchestral Strings

Orchestral Strings brings the sounds of the symphony into your Bitwig Studio projects.

This sound package contains top-of-the-line recordings of a string ensemble by esteemed virtual instruments creators at Orchestral Tools, a leading creator of premium symphonic sample collections. Here you'll find various articulations and notes of plucks, sustained bows and accents, already organized into categories like Pizzicato and Tremolo in the Bitwig Sampler. They're also incorporated into creative presets that use Note FX devices and other forms of processing to make composing with these string sounds easy.

The samples included in Orchestral Strings were recorded on the scoring stage at the famous Teldex Studio in Berlin, one of the world's preeminent classical music recording studios thanks to its historic location on the site of an 1890 concert venue, its unique collection of vintage microphones and legacy of engineering expertise. Germany's top orchestras have performed and recorded at this location since the building was constructed as a concert venue for groups like the Berlin Philharmonic in 1890 and then its post-War days as Teldec Studios.
