SonicProjects ‘Stringer’: A Sample-based Analog String Virtual Synth that contains Top-Notch Quality Sample Sets of Three Classic Vintage String Machines
The Swiss research-base virtual instrument developer company SonicProjects has released 'Stringer' (version 3.0) — The sample-based analog string virtual synth that contains top-notch quality sample sets of three classic vintage synthesizers: Logan String Melody II, ARP Omni 2 and Welson Symphony. The unique and different tonal characters of these three vintage analog string machines complement very well for each other in layers and splits. The sounds are available in two independent engines (upper and lower) which can be mixed and split for layered sounds or separate sounds for each hand.
The main idea of Stringer was to make available the best sounds of these three vintage analog string machines in an easy-to-use plugin with the option to layer or split two sounds of choice for rich textures. Every key of Logan and Omni 2 was sampled using hi-end converters in 24-bit depth for the chosen presets to match 1:1 to the original while every second and fourth keys per octave in Welson were sampled since the sound does not alter that much from key to key. The length of each sample is about 4 seconds in order to capture the typical movement in the tonal structure over time. The sonic result is outstanding and nearly indistinguishable from the original.
Stringer version 3.0 provides new “Pure” mode. Under this mode, the engine does not use any samples but produces a pure generated sawtooth wave as most original vintage string machines did as base. The typical rich analog string sound then is achieved by sending this pure sawtooth wave through an ensemble effect. For this, Stringer version 3.0 offers a switchable fixed ensemble effect (ENS button) which is pre-effect. The modulation section of the effects unit furthermore offers another ensemble effect with full parameter controls. This lets you design your own string machine from ground up using the same basic components as the old originals did (sawtooth wave —> ensemble effect —> amplifier) in two separate pannable engines. You can mix them with the sample-based engine and this gives Stringer a tremendous range of possible sounds.
New Features in Version 3.0
* The new "Pure" mode combined with the ensemble and modulation effects allows to design new string ensemble sounds from scratch.
System Requirements Stringer is available as VST and VST3 plugin for PC and as AU plugin for Mac.
Price $55.00 USD (Special Price)
