With this crossgrade, owners of Cubase, Nuendo or Dorico get Iconica Opus, the orchestral library recorded at Funkhaus Berlin that combines Iconica Sections and Players with Iconica Ensembles.

Iconica was created with Orchestral Tools in Studio 2 of Funkhaus Berlin, a 400 m² room with a 10.5 m ceiling height and a reverb time of around 1.5 seconds; 76 musicians, including 50 players just for the strings, recorded the samples over the course of a month. Iconica Sections and Players provides individually sampled instruments and sections of strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion and harp, while Iconica Ensembles offers over 40 presets with perfectly matched sections, each recorded in its correct place in the orchestra – ideal for tight deadlines and sketches. The Cell Rack, Adaptive True Legato, several microphone positions per instrument and the VST 3 Note Expression and Expression Maps deliver expressive results.
