Sonuscore LUX Orchestral Strings v1.1.0 KONTAKT 

A Hollywood Dream for Film Composers
LUX Orchestral Strings is unlike any product we have ever made. From the very beginning we set out to create something that felt as close as possible to standing on the scoring stage. Our most ambitious library to date, designed so that composers can be even more ambitious with their music.

LUX Orchestral Strings is not just another string library. It is a 70-piece symphonic string ensemble, recorded on a large scoring stage with unprecedented realism, warmth and scale. It puts you right in the room with the orchestra.

LUX Orchestral Strings was crafted by composers for composers with a professional workflow in mind.

- Seamless Articulation Transitioning (S.A.T.)
- Comprehensive bleed microphones for natural resonance
- Morphing articulations with expressive mod-wheel control
- Dedicated key switch sets for every scoring style
- Natural string change legato for smooth, lifelike phrasing
- Composer-crafted ensembles with multiple voicing options

What Makes LUX Special
LUX Orchestral Strings was created with a composer’s workflow in mind. We crafted the sound and developed unique techniques to deliver the most natural playing and composing experience. Switch effortlessly between articulation sets tailored to different styles and keep your creativity flowing. Discover a sound so authentic, it feels like you’re standing right in the heart of the orchestra.

S.A.T. – Seamless Articulation Transitioning
In most libraries, articulation changes sound like separate recordings, not a continuous performance. Real musicians play differently – they flow naturally from one technique to another. A sustained note becomes a tremolo simply by increasing bow speed, without any break or restart.

S.A.T. brings that fluid motion to LUX. Move between articulations while holding a note, letting phrases evolve with the natural expressiveness of real performance. A gentle key switch creates a gradual shift, a stronger one a quick change – giving you true instrumental flow at your fingertips.

70-Player String Ensemble
LUX Orchestral Strings is huge, not a small chamber group, not a cut-down studio section, but a full 70-piece symphonic string ensemble recorded with the size and power that defined the golden age of Hollywood film scores.

It delivers the perfect balance for modern scoring: bigger and richer than smaller 30 – 40 player sections, yet more detailed and versatile than oversized 90+ ensembles. It captures the cinematic weight of world-class film recordings while retaining clarity, flexibility, and expressive nuance. Ideal for any professional composer.

Comprehensive Bleed Microphones – Done Right
Only a few libraries offer a bleed option, and usually only in a limited way. With LUX Orchestral Strings we wanted to capture the true experience of a full orchestral scoring session, so we took it much further.

In total we set up 48 microphones. 26 were used for the main capture — tree, far, and close mics for the string sections. On top of that we added another 22 close bleed microphones across the brass, woodwinds and percussion sections to record their natural spill into the strings. This recreated the complete orchestral recording setup, with every mic you would expect to find on a professional scoring stage.

Resonance That Lives and Breathes
With LUX Orchestral Strings you can choose how much of that natural spill you want in your mix, from just a touch of color to the full character of the scoring stage. The result is bleed that does not feel like an added effect, but like the resonance and interplay of a real orchestra in the room. Other libraries hint at it. LUX Orchestral Strings delivers it in full.

Morphing Articulations – Evolving Sounds in Real Time
LUX Orchestral Strings lets you do something sample libraries rarely achieve — shape articulations as if they were alive. Using the mod wheel, you can blend seamlessly between two or more articulations in real time. Sustains can melt into tremolos, sul ponticello textures can swell into shimmering atmospheres, and a staccato can transform into a powerful sforzando with a single movement.

Composer-Crafted Ensembles – Instant Inspiration
When inspiration strikes, speed is everything. LUX Orchestral Strings offers carefully crafted ensembles, designed by composers who understand true orchestral balance. Sketch soaring melodies or driving rhythms in seconds, then refine them into detailed individual parts at your own pace. Flexible voicing and octave options ensure a full, lush sound, ideal for quick sketches or powerful supporting layers. These ensembles are not shortcuts, they are inspiration engines.

Key Switch Sets For Every Musical Context
LUX introduces something no other library offers, dedicated Key Switch sets tailored to specific scoring needs. Whether you are writing an action sequence, a lyrical theme, a soft texture, or a melodic passage, you can load a single set that contains all the articulations you need for that context.

Natural String Change – Legato With the Soul of a Player
Real string players do not cut notes short when leaping across intervals. As the bow moves, the previous string lingers, resonating just a moment longer and giving the phrase its natural flow. It is a small detail, but it is what makes live performance so moving. For LUX Orchestral Strings, violinist and developer Jonas Meyer created Natural String Change technology, a system that detects when the next note would fall on a different string and allows the previous one to breathe into it.

Scoring for Every Story
Whether it is the pulse of an action sequence, the intimacy of a love theme, or the magic of a fantasy world, LUX Orchestral Strings provides the articulations and textures to meet the moment.
