FOUNDATION: STRINGS is a collection of free Ableton Live instrument racks that features various string instruments like Cello, Viola, Violin, Contrabass, Psaltery, Concert Harp, Folk Harp, and Strumstick.
Most instruments feature several racks with various articulations like pizzicato, spiccato, tremolo and vibrato.
You can hear these instrument racks (raw version) in our latest cinematic templates and they performed very well. They sound quite good either solo or layered with other instruments.
We also included 15 additional non-orchestral instrument racks designed to extend the range of tones and applications.
