Fantastic virtual orchestral cello and double bass ensembles at your fingertips.
The Vienna Symphonic Library Orchestral Strings 1 sound collection includes an 8-player cello ensemble as well as a 6-player double bass ensemble. The articulations of the virtual double bass and cello ensembles naturally correspond to those of the Vienna Instruments Orchestral Strings I. Playing styles not available in the Pro Edition were added to this virtual instrument, such as fast Interval Performances in legato, marcato, and spiccato styles; Performance Trills; Repetition Performances "harsh," spiccato, and pizzicato; plus artificial harmonics as well as various ponticello articulations--tones played near the bridge. Both ensembles' tonal ranges were extended, the virtual cellos' staccatos and sustains now extending up to A5 and the double basses up to G4. The leading voices of the 2 string sections are Argentinian Rubén Dubrovsky, founder of the Vienna Bach Consort, and Martin Deuring, an internationally active solo bassist and founding member of the chamber music ensemble, Ensemble Plus.
