FOUNDATIONS | Staccato Strings

Dynamic Introduction

Featuring short, crisp staccatos paired with a layer of our signature sound design, all housed in a highly customizable interface – FOUNDATIONS | Staccato Strings provides a strong rhythmic starting point to help build your story.

Cinematic Staccatos

Sourced from a core string ensemble, we’ve taken the crisp and precise notes of the staccato articulation and processed them to deliver a strong rhythmic foundation for any modern score.

Organic Textures

The beauty of this modern string orchestra emerges from combining intricately performed string textures with creatively-processed synthetic elements. The result, a uniquely modern and hybrid sound.

Built to be a sound design canvas for artists, producers, and composers of all experience levels, the FOUNDATIONS engine features an extensive palette of sound-shaping capabilities, including ARP, Gate, Space, and ADSR.
