The Kontakt string library with a warm sound tailored to pop, recorded at Jintian Recording Studio in Beijing.

Qin Strings was recorded at Jintian Recording Studio, the largest orchestral studio in Beijing, with an 8-6-4-4-2 line-up under the supervision of producer Chen Qinyang. An SSL console and careful EQ processing give it a warm tone suited to today’s pop music, and every legato sample was fine-tuned for realistic transitions. Pizzicato and staccato respond with almost zero latency, vibrato is switched between fast, slow and none via CC11, CC4 selects minor or major second trills, and CC1 controls expression. As an NI standard library, all parameters can also be controlled from NI Komplete S-Series keyboards.
