Spitfire Studio Strings comes with over 230 different articulations or playing styles for the different instrument sections as well as the four different player configurations. However as all of the string sections were recorded in a rather dry, medium-sized studio, you’ll always retain a sharp and crisp sound that doesn’t wash out at the tails. While the two divisi sections provide you with a strong sense of intimacy and detail, the large 56-piece string ensemble (which is made up from the standard section plus the two divisi sections) allows for grandiose and broad brushstrokes. Regarding the string sections, Spitfire Studio Strings is laid out in a modular manner. As you can see above, the Professional edition not only offers quite a few more microphone positions and mixes, it also provides you with three extra ensemble setups, each equipped with a comprehensive set of articulations. Probably the first fact that leaps to the eye is that the Professional edition of Spitfire Studio Strings contains almost 16 times the content of the Core edition (210 GB vs. 6 Microphone Positions (Close 1 & 2, Tree 1 & 2, Ambience, Outriggers).Two Divisi Sections (4 first violins, 3 second violins, 3 violas, 3 celli).Large String Ensemble (16 first violins, 12 second violins, 12 violas, 12 celli, 4 basses).

MEDIUM CHAMBER Ensemble (8 first violins, 6 second violins, 6 violas, 6 celli, 4 basses).These are the most important differences between the two at a glance: CORE First things first: Spitfire Studio Strings is a sample library built for Native Instruments’ free KONTAKT Player version 5.6.8+ and is available in two different editions: CORE and PROFESSIONAL.
