Spitfire Releases Chamber Strings Essentials

US Streamlined edition of Spitfire Chamber Strings 06/09/23

Spitfire Audio tells us that their new Chamber Strings Essentials is the new streamlined edition of a versatile and well-loved Spitfire Audio classic, Spitfire Chamber Strings. They say that it will provide instant access to world-class scoring sound quality to enhance your film, TV and game scores, and pop records. Here's the details straight from the company...

Expertly recorded at London's AIR Studios – the home of countless blockbuster scores such as The Dark Knight, Inception, Quantum of Solace, Interstellar, and Dunkrik – this smaller section offers more detail and focus than Spitfire Audio's Symphonic ranges, featuring Close and Tree microphone positions, whilst still capturing the unique resonance of the hall.
