LIMINAL: WHISPERING STRINGS

Delicate and Nuanced String Textures

Crocus Soundware is pleased to present LIMINAL: WHISPERING STRINGS, a library of intimately recorded Violin, Viola and Cello samples - playable using the full version of Kontakt 6.7+. The library's articulations are aleatoric, long and evolving, with the performer imparting character and movement into each sample. This library focuses on creative and extended playing techniques, including the use of a rosin-less bow - achieving delicate and whispering sounds.

The audio was recorded using large-diaphragm condenser microphones, placed within centimeters of the instrument's sound-holes, fingerboard and bridge. This allowed us to capture hyper-intimate details into the samples. The library is well-suited to add unpredictability and creative imperfection. The LIMINAL range is not specifically intended for fast passages or soaring melodies. Instead, you may see the libraries as collections of naturalistic pads - offering humanistic details not found in something derived from a synthetic source.

The user-interface allows articulations to be layered, mixed and reversed. The 'crossfade gizmo' allows artful blending of sound layers with intuitive color-coded controls. LFO controls can also be enabled, allowing your DAW's tempo to dictate the modulation of an individual layer's volume. This opens the door for tempo-synced swells and unleashes even more creative possibilities for evolving texture.
