Fracture Sounds has introduced a new solo string textures library for Kontakt and the free Kontakt Player from Native Instruments.
Solo String Formations explores an intimate palette of articulations and evocative Atmosphere Layers to shape your sound.
Featuring the first chairs of the larger ensemble, it offers detailed, characterful textures that can stand alone or blend naturally with other string libraries to add motion and nuance to your music. Continuing the original’s chordal approach, the engine intelligently analyses your playing in real time, and triggers performances that move between the notes you are holding, resulting in a fluid, expressive texture that feels truly alive.
Each soloist was recorded separately, allowing us to introduce a new Arranger feature, giving you full control over how the engine allocates each note to the soloists in the ensemble. Within the library are our signature Atmosphere Layers which are bespoke pads and textures, designed to be blended with the articulations within the main patches, or using the Layer Blends engine, offering an inspiring way to reshape the core sound and discover fresh sonic possibilities.
Solo String Formations features
- Solo violin, viola, and cello combined in two ensemble patches.
- Eight intelligent chordal articulations.
- Eight unison articulations.
- Eight unique Atmosphere Layers.
- Close, mid, and far microphone positions.
- Recorded at Nave Studios.
Solo String Formations is on sale at an introductory 30% discount, priced $89 / €89 EUR until July 1st, 2025. Various bundles including the new libraries are on sale at up to 40% off regular during the promotion.
