However, EastWest have included full folders of 'divisi'-style patches captured concurrently using close mics to the left and right of each section. With skill, further subtleties can be achieved using finger position (FP) patches and, in some instances, MIDI CCs (portamento speed).įinally, it's worth saying that Hollywood Strings is purely section-based, so there are no solo instruments. Next, some legato patches combine articulations and use a tempo-detection script to switch between them. For legato patches, velocity affects transition speed rather than volume, so playing harder means a quicker transition. Importantly, it's very consistent, but there are also real subtleties worth mentioning.

Onto the sound, and, unsurprisingly, it's excellent. With such large sample sets to load, you'll want to pick the right one first time. As far as patch selection is concerned, the key to success is in learning their abbreviations (BC for 'bow change', for example). Given the potentially stressful CPU and RAM demands, it's a relief that some patches offer a 'lite' version too.

For vibrato and loudness (including the accompanying timbre), you can morph between playing intensities using MIDI CCs. However, one of the biggest features is actually quite subtle: sample crossfading. A number of violin, viola and cello long-bowed patches include control of string choice via finger position, so you can take advantage of the mellower bridge sound, for example.įurther articulations include bow change, up bow, down bow, played effects (tremolo and trill) and a number of prerecorded and playable runs in patch form. One interesting new feature is finger position. The five options are main pickup (Decca Tree), mid pickup (auditorium front row), close pickup, surround (rear of recording space) and vintage ribbon surround (the surround options are mutually exclusive).
