Spitfire Audio Kontakt

Spitfire Studio Woodwinds is the third and final release in our vital Spitfire Studio Orchestra range. Our ambition was to create an incredibly versatile pro-end dry stage sample library, and by choosing the crisp and vibrant setting of AIR Studio One - a smaller, more controllable space than the opulent Lyndhurst Hall - we offer our fellow composers a woodwind library that captures every grain in depth and detail.

Experience the shimmering cascades of nine harps, the resonant warmth of a marimba orchestra, and the delicate intricacy of 18 mandolins, charangos and ukeleles. Spitfire Swarms creates choirs from rarely grouped instruments, arranged around AIR Studios Lyndhurst Hall to create haunting tremolos, epic glissandi, intricate rhythmic patterns and soaring melodic lines.

Spitfire Audio joins forces with the biggest name in film scoring to produce the ultimate drum sample library for cinematic percussion. Featuring the ensembles and solo instruments used by Oscar-winning Hans Zimmer in his blockbuster scores, we've drawn on his years of creativity and studio experimentation to give you all you need to create epic drum composition. From tombeks to taikos, playing from whisperingly quiet to thunderously loud, we’ve worked with Hans' Grammy award-winning team to capture the highest quality recordings, featuring the same players in Lyndhurst Hall at AIR Studios, London, where Hans records his biggest scores, all mixed and produced by the man himself.

Innovative solo strings from four of London’s finest players. We’ve captured the performances of four of the most interesting and progressive string soloists in London to give you an accessible tool for detailed composition work. Featuring Violin, Viola, Cello and Double Bass, it features spirited longs and shorts, as well as a series of more unconventional articulations. Alternative Solo Strings offers you an instant, out-of-the-box collaborative experience, steeped in character.

This is your definitive chamber range – a versatile classic that will enhance your film, TV and game scores and pop records.
