All sounds are up at once

As soon as you launch 70 DVZ Strings, you’ll find all of the sounds are immediately available — preassigned to MIDI channels and playable. You can get to work right away; you’ll never again have to search through massive gigabytes of files to find the sounds you like.

Where were they recorded?

70 DVZ Strings was recorded at Lansdowne Studios, one of London’s premier recording studios. We specifically selected this recording environment for its neutral, open ambience that allowed the strings to breathe while avoiding the kind of “identifiable” acoustic signature often associated with sample libraries.

Which instruments were used?

70 DVZ Strings’ first violin is a Stradivarius. The second violin is a Guarnerius. One advantage of recording in London is the abundance of Stradivari and Guarneri instruments available. Instruments like this and of similar quality were used throughout.

How do I play this library?

70 DVZ Strings runs in the included Kontakt 4.1 Player, either as five VST plug-ins (one per section) within a specified VST host or in a Kontakt 4.1 Player standalone where you load the library’s 32 Kontakt NKMs using a provided multi file for one-click loading. You use DVZ’s graphical user interface on your sampler’s monitor to control everything rather than using individual Kontakt GUI’s. Use your favorite sequencer or go direct to a mixer/DAW.

Full orchestra can run at once on 1 computer

70 DVZ Strings’ can now run at the same time as our (in development) Winds, Brass and Percussion Libraries. Our latest testing using an Intel i7 860 computer, 16 GB RAM and hosting the Kontakt Player 4.1 VSTs in Vienna Ensemble Pro (v. 4.1, build 7043) have conclusively demonstrated this, as can be seen and heard in this complete DVZ orchestra demo
