REVIEW
StringAudio is one of those companies that continues to release impressive sample
libraries that really offer impressive sound design capabilities. Ever since
the release of their debut 'Dark Matter' back in 2016, I have been a huge fan.
Even though this company has only been around a couple years, they have churned
out some truly stunning libraries for Kontakt and Omnisphere 2. I have always
been impressed with their Kontakt engine layout. Each instrument is composed of
6 layers and it's extremely efficient on all the CPU's I've ran it on, which
makes this a huge plus in getting compositions done fast. Alchemist Cinematic Textures2 has a sound so distinct and full of movement that I’ve never heard duplicated
in any other library quite this way. You get a total of 20GB of sample material,
6000+ high-quality samples, and 570+ pre-programmed Snapshots.
If you have the original "Alchemist Cinematic
Textures " you can upgrade for a special price giving you more than 13GB
of brand new sample material and more than 270 brand new snapshots powered with a
brand-new engine.
Award winning composer HARRY GREGSON -
WILLIAMS got it right when he said
'A bottomless well of possibility and
invention... '
Alchemist Cinematic Textures 2 is a solid upgrade! Scary, Intense, Gritty, Dark, and full
of evolving expression. This library is a must have for anyone looking for
endless possibilities and complexity in sound design that is simple to achieve.
