Shadow Strings

Shadow Strings


A Sinister Soul in the Strings

Experience the essence of nocturnal enchantment with Shadow Strings, a mesmerizing orchestra that emerges from the depths. With thousands of effects, the symphony of the night will captivate your senses as haunting melodies and atmospheric textures intertwine.

The 40-piece string section (12, 10, 8, 6, 4), includes 3 mic positions: a decca tree for a full sound and 2 spot microphones to focus in on different instruments in the section. This sonic journey encompasses dozens of mesmerizing downers and falls, complemented by a rich palette of stylistic risers, all with a multitude of variations.

From the hauntingly creepy to the dark and anguished, the strings deliver an impressive assortment of long and short effects. Delve into the world of short cuts, filthy hits, psycho slams, savage rips, eerie shrieks, and more. Expand your sonic palette further with percussive hits, pizzicato notes, col legno techniques, Bartok (snap) pizzicato, and beyond. Shadow Strings adds a depth of awe and an unmistakable allure to your compositions.
