Captured at AIR Studios, Lyndhurst Hall, through the finest and rarest vintage valve and ribbon microphones onto 2" tape. Every patch is available, with four way mic control and all shorts patches work with the enriching Ostinatum feature. We have a mixture of true legato, longs, and shorts patches.
The strings sound set has been captured as High and Low Ensembles. With strings that concentrate on an array of comprehensive, extended techniques (in addition to its standard, long, short and legato sets); the much called for tremolando patches, trills, harmonics, flautando (a favourite for many of Spitfire users), light col legno and a variety of shorts patches. With our Loegria Chamber Band, we have created a library that has detail and richness not found in other chamber strings samples. In addition to the full section, we have duplicated full longs and legatos with a smaller half section band.
The brass range concentrates on the true beauty of traditional British brass sections and their heart-wrenching choral qualities. We have two ensembles: a bank of euphoniums and horns, and the more ancient but no less moving sackbut choir. The wind section concentrates on the beautiful simplistic qualities of traditional wooden recorders, adding a beautiful choral-like addition to the string section.
The Byron Tapes
An inspiring place to start any new indy cue. A comprehensive selection of rhythm loops, inspired by a popular keyboard instrument from the 60s and 70s. As there were only a few of these rhythms recorded on the original classic, they have been subject to massive over-use. Loegria provides an entirely new comprehensive bank of these styles of rhythms. Choose from a variety of mix settings, including one via a line mixer owned and used by Jimi Hendrix. Loops and patterns designed to tempo lock with your host.
Darwin Percussion
Another selection of thundering drums — everything you would expect from 'cinema' style percussion. We have gone deeper this time, with five round robins, five dynamic layers and more hits. We have also recorded and edited 'tight' and 'loose' versions of the patches, which really give you a sense of manpower behind the recordings.
Fenton Reversers
Any media composer knows that a tricky cut, or a suddenly revised edit can make a mess of the musicality of a cue. A trick of ours that blurs a jump in music — a sudden 3/4 bar or 11/8 cut that runs in the middle of a beat — is to use some form of reversed material. Fenton Reversers are a selection of super cool reverses derived from the Albion range and locked into your host tempo, so you don't need to line them up. A lot of these are also controllable by the mod wheel.tempo lock with your host.
Stephenson's Steam Band
We have taken the orchestral elements found within the library and have warped them beyond recognition, creating a sparkling and rich set of pads, drones and atmos. With two-way mic control and modulation control, these sounds mix beautifully with your orchestral arrangements, as they are from a wholly organic source.
