NEW ARTICULATIONS
If you own the original SYMPHOBIA, SYMPHOBIA 2 will greatly expand your
possibilities. To name a few, the SYMPHOBIA 2 string section adds minor
and major DXF trills, different lengths of crescendo-decrescendo, new
crescendos and new spiccatos. The full orchestra section has powerful
new sustain and staccato articulations, and a beautiful Wide Octaves
articulation with modwheel control. The separate horn section in the
original SYMPHOBIA has been expanded with a blockbuster 8-player horn
ensemble.
NEW EFFECTS
If you liked the effects in the original SYMPHOBIA, you are going to
love the ones in SYMPHOBIA 2! Having covered the basis, we could explore
the world of orchestral effects further and look for interesting new
sounds and more specific techniques. There are now effects banks
entirely dedicated to ponticello, flageolet or other playing techniques.
You will also find beautiful looped textures that can be triggered in
different keys. These phrases will instantly give your production a
realism boost, but leave enough room to add
your own personal touches.
LEGATO ENSEMBLES
An industry-first: real legato transitions for orchestrated sets of
instruments. Various differently arranged ensembles were captured
performing legato intervals, playing in unison or octaves, and were
meticulously edited and scripted. A great example is the noble sounding
Horns Violins Violas set, which offers real legato performance of French
horns, violins and violas playing in unison. No layering was used
whatsoever. The legatos, transitions and orchestrations you hear are all
real. Each of the sets has been recorded in a specific range and
dynamic, dictated by the orchestration and the musical context of the
orchestration. Apart from the LEGATO ENSEMBLES we also included a number
of legato
solo instruments.
DYSTOPIA VOLUME 3
Our popular DYSTOPIA section is back and is better than ever! Explore
the dark side of SAM with processed hits, spheres, scapes and risers,
based on the recordings of SYMPHOBIA 2 and some of our other libraries.
Also be sure to check out the SYMPHOBIAN DRUMS.
BRAND-NEW INTERFACE
SYMPHOBIA 2 is powered by Kontakt 4.1 and comes with a brand-new
interface. In the centre are the instrument and articulation displays.
The left half of the interface contains all the switchable options such
as Master EQ, release trails and microphone mode. The right half of the
interface has all the controllable options such as instant ADSR, reverb
and DSP effects.
SWITCHABLE MIC MODE
Like the original SYMPHOBIA, SYMPHOBIA 2 was recorded in a beautiful
concert hall environment and has been edited and programmed in two
microphone sets: close and stage. Each program now contains both
microphone sets and has a convenient switch button to choose which mic
set you wish to use. Both mic sets have been carefully mixed to
instantly fall into place in your mix. When switching mics, the samples
for the unused mic will be purged from RAM.
OUR BEST MULTIS EVER
The LEGATO ENSEMBLES opened up exciting new possibilities for creating
MULTIS. We created MULTIS that allow you to play two, even three legato
instruments simultaneously as well as various combinations of polyphonic
articulations and a legato instrument. With names such as "Make It So"
and "When All Hope Is Lost" it's easy to find the MULTI that best
matches your project or scene.
The adventure continues... with SYMPHOBIA 2.
