Massive New String Collection from Sonic Implants

US 20 CD library is the toast of the industry      12/11/02

Sonic Network, Inc. has released Sonic Implants Symphonic Strings Collection and early reports indicate it was well worth the wait.
Jim Van Buskirk, creator of Gigasampler, says, “This library is beauty, edge and sensitivity that leaps right out of the box - making absolute connection with your inner musicality.” Van Buskirk’s reaction was typical. “GIGA done right. The releases are beautiful. It's like the second half of what we've been missing since the beginning of sampled strings. I'm blown away by the 20 CDs of superb samples over vast articulations, Xfades, EG Mods, and velocity layers - these instruments have a life of their own.” The Collection is a 20 CD-ROM (or three DVD) boxed set in the Gigasampler format. Members of the Boston Pops and Boston Ballet string sections were recorded by 2001 Emmy award engineer Antonio Oliart and RIAA award engineer John Bono, at Sonic Temple Studios, Roslindale, MA. All programming was done in-house at the Sonic Network studio in Arlington, MA, and took almost a year to complete. Sections include 1st Violins, 2nd Violins, Violas, Cellos, Basses & ensembles which combined all sections. The collection features rich, multi-dynamic instruments with resonant string decays intact and gigabytes of articulations from which to choose. “This is the largest single sample library ever released and most definitely the highest quality project I've completed in my 17 years of sound design,” commented Jennifer Hruska, president and chief engineer of Sonic Network, “The response we’ve been getting from musicians and composers has been overwhelming. I never anticipated such heartfelt appreciation and I am very excited to see composers making music within ten minutes of installing these sounds." The Sonic Implants Symphonic Strings Collection, priced at $1295.00, is on sale now at the Sonic Implants web site and will be available at selected music dealers.
