Symphonic strings in motion

Spitfire Symphonic Motions makes it easy to create sophisticated sounding kinetic passages, combinations of rhythms and playing techniques to elevate your scores, as well as solving a common problem with virtual string instruments — achieving realistic rebowing. Recorded in the same space, with the same world-class players and attention to detail, this inspiring tool perfectly complements Spitfire Symphony Orchestra, but is also inspiring when used on its own, adding texture, momentum and depth to your cinematic compositions.

 

The Motions Grid

Available in our award-winning, easy-to-use plug-in and NKS ready, the sophisticated, intuitive grid layout allows you to easily and quickly create intricate, realistic and expressive rhythmic strings. Much like our Spitfire Evo libraries creating realistic long notes, Spitfire Symphonic Motions offers the same for short and rhythms. Choose from an essential selection of playing techniques, and combine these with short ‘Overlay’ techniques for accents and blending to create a more nuanced, dynamic sound. You also have up to four different rhythms to choose from (6ths, 8ths, 12ths, 16ths) with two phrasing options (discrete/staccato and smooth/legato), locked to the host tempo in your DAW.

Our bespoke grid interface, inspired by the EMS VCS3 synth, positions ‘pegs’ via an onscreen 12 x 40 grid arrangement, giving you access to recordings across 12 intervals, organised in a grid with a wide range of possible configurations. Instantly select which technique sits on each of those 12 key ranges, toggle your pegs, or hit "Randomise" to generate randomised combinations for instant inspiration.

 

Features

  • London’s finest players, including 22 violins & 12 cellos
  • 40 articulations
  • 7 essential playing techniques
  • 4 different rhythmic patterns - 6ths, 8ths, 12ths & 16ths
  • 6 additional Overlay techniques for accents and blending
  • Recorded in situ using priceless valve and ribbon mics
  • Neve Montserrat Pre-amps into a Neve 88R desk
  • Recorded digitally at 96k via 2" Studer tape
  • 3 essential and diverse mic positions: C(lose), T(ree), A(mbient)
  • 3 curated mixes

The Hall at AIR Studios

If you want that blockbuster sound, you have to go bold. If you want cinematic, you have to go big. These stunning performances have been captured in The Hall at AIR Studios, a space that has played host to scores from the highest grossing blockbusters (Harry Potter, The Dark Knight, Atonement). We've used the same first-call session players as in Spitfire Symphony Orchestra, sampled with our usual more is more approach by award-winning engineer, Jake Jackson. The final product offers six signals to choose from, including Close Tree & Ambient mics, and three specially curated mixes.
