Spitfire Audio has recently released an update to its Spitfire Symphony Orchestra, which delivers a full symphonic experience, featuring ensemble strings, brass, woodwinds, soloists, harp, piano, and a complete percussion section.
The update comes with three top-tier soloists on violin, viola and cello, improved programming for ensemble violins, violas, celli and basses, as well as total performance patches for principal oboe and solo trombone.
- Solo Violin: World-renowned violinist Andrew Haveron’s impressive career includes leading roles with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, Brodsky Quartet, BBC Symphony Orchestra, and Philharmonia Orchestra. His virtuosity shines through in a dedicated performance patch with fingered, bowed, and portamento legatos, longs, staccatos, pizzicatos, and harmonics.
- Solo Viola: With an astounding number of film, TV, video game, and recording credits, Bruce White is one of the most sought-after violists in the world. His rich and expressive playing is captured in wonderful detail.
- Solo Cello: One of the most in-demand session cellists in the world, Caroline Dale brings her exceptional talent and experience to SSO. Principal cellist for the English Chamber Orchestra and London Metropolitan Orchestra, Dale has performed with leading orchestras and artists worldwide. Her contributions to film scores, including the Oscar-winning “Atonement,” are legendary, not to mention her long list of performance credits alongside Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, Oasis, Joan Armatrading, Peter Gabriel, David Gilmour and U2.
- Three legato transition types – Fingered, Bowed and Portamento, plus other articulations including Long Non-Vibrato and Vibrato, Staccato, Pizzicato, Long Harmonics and Short Harmonics.
- C(lose), Decca T(ree), and A(mbient) mic signals allow you to find the perfect balance for your mix.
