🎻 Vintage Strings – Classic Soulful Violin Sections for Kontakt 🎶

Step back in time and infuse your tracks with the rich, expressive string sections of the 1960s and 1970s! 🌟 Vintage Strings is a meticulously crafted virtual instrument for Kontakt, designed to capture the warm, soulful sound of classic R&B, Soul, and Funk recordings. Whether you’re a seasoned arranger or a producer looking for authentic, nostalgic strings, Vintage Strings makes it fast and easy to achieve professional results. 🎼✨

🎧 A True Vintage Recording Experience

To recreate the unmistakable Motown & Philly Soul sound, we recorded a 6-piece violin section using legendary Neumann U-87 and Royer ribbon mics, all processed through an SSL board for warmth and depth. Instead of a grand concert hall, we chose a smaller, intimate studio space—just like the ones used in classic R&B and Soul sessions—to preserve the authentic vibe. 🎶🎤

🎻 Multiple Violin Sections for Maximum Flexibility

Vintage Strings offers three distinct section sizes, allowing you to craft everything from small, intimate passages to larger, more layered textures:

✅ 2 Violins (2VLN) – Perfect for small string sections, tight harmonies, and mixes where you need subtle, warm strings without overpowering the track.

✅ 6 Violins (6VLN) – Designed for classic unison lines, often heard in legendary Soul recordings. Can be used to simulate an overdubbed section for an even richer sound.

✅ 12 Violins (12VLN) – Create full, lush string arrangements without the artificial gloss of orchestral libraries. Great for soulful, expressive layering. 🎻🎶
