What it is
Deep Solo Violin is a Kontakt instrument library from 8Dio built around an ultra-deep-sampled solo violin. Recorded with a principal violinist for the BBC Symphony Orchestra at Gorbals Sound studio in Scotland, it delivers 88 articulations across over 20,000 samples - spanning polyphonic legato, bowing arcs, con sordino techniques, and tempo-synced patterns.
Who it's for
Composers scoring for film, TV, or games who need a realistic, expressive solo violin. Its depth and range of articulations suit cinematic productions that demand nuanced, lifelike performances as well as producers looking for an orchestral string voice that can carry a melodic line.
Key features
- 88 articulations organized into six categories: Shorts, Longs, Bowed, Bowed FX, Measured, and Performance
- True polyphonic legato lets you play sliding harmonies with three velocity-controlled transition styles
- 25 types of bowing arcs and arc FX including con sordino, sul tasto, sul ponticello, and tremolo variations
- Dual near/ambient microphone blending gives precise control over the violin's depth and distance in the mix
