The First “Ye Olde” String Library from EastWest
Entertaining films and shows like Lord of the Rings and The Witcher and video games such as The Pathless and Hades make one thing clear: the fantasy genre is more popular than ever. Now, with the Hollywood Fantasy Strings library from EastWest Sounds, you can compose music that evokes those same epics, and fantastical themes. As the first product in the Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra series,
EastWest set the bar high! Featuring 72GB of medieval, Baroque, and Renaissance fare, Hollywood Fantasy Strings was recorded on the same stage with the same mic placements as the EastWest Hollywood Orchestra, which means perfect blending with your current EastWest libraries.
Each instrument has been programmed with three moods — Classic, Soft, and Epic — that range from authentic to cinematic. Four microphone mixes with level and pan controls let you further tailor your ideal soundscape, and EastWest’s Opus sample engine makes configuring multi-instrument setups a breeze. With loads of articulation sets like legatos, trills, and crescendos, plus a Quickstart category to help your journey begin, EastWest Hollywood Fantasy Strings will bring your fantastic music to reality:
Each instrument in Hollywood Fantasy Strings has been captured in Classic, Soft, and Epic moods. Selecting one will modify the microphone mix, MIDI parameters, reverb, and more.
Plus, with the additional four mic placement options, you’ll be able to craft your soundscape to perfectly match any setting, from a candlelit tavern to the sonorous halls of a medieval lord.
