Included Sound Libraries
1. Ancient Kingdom | Ancient Virtual Instrument Library
Step into a lost dimension with Ancient Kingdom, a virtual instrument library designed for modern composers. Through creative mashups, you can summon surreal historical soundscapes. Powered by the robust Opus Play Engine and featuring micro-tonal options, it transports listeners into a mysterious ancient world.
2. Hollywood Strings 2 | Emotional. Intimate. Raw.
This is the brand-new chapter in EastWest’s celebrated Hollywood Orchestral series. Hollywood Strings 2 was produced by the original award-winning team and recorded in the legendary EastWest Studio 2 with a 21-piece string ensemble. Unlike the epic scale of the first generation, this release focuses on extreme Close Mic recording, capturing the grit, depth, and air of every note. It is perfect for modern genres like pop, rock, and hip-hop, or for moments in a score requiring extreme intimacy and direct emotion.
