🌟 Vintage Strings – Classic Soul & R&B Violin Sounds for Kontakt 🌟

Step back in time and bring the soulful sound of 60s & 70s R&B, Soul, and Funk to your productions with Vintage Strings – a meticulously crafted virtual instrument for Kontakt. Whether you’re an experienced arranger or a passionate producer, this library makes it effortless to create rich, authentic string sections with a warm, nostalgic vibe.

Unlike modern, pristine string libraries, Vintage Strings captures the imperfect charm and expressive character of classic recordings, delivering that unmistakable raw, human feel that defined the golden era of soul music.

🎶 Authentic Vintage Recording Process

To stay true to the sound of legendary studios like Motown and Philly Soul, we meticulously recorded a 6-piece violin section using premium Neumann U-87 and Royer ribbon microphones through a vintage SSL console. Instead of a sterile concert hall, we recorded in a tight, character-rich studio space, just like the classic soul and R&B records of the past.

🎺 Multiple String Section Options

We created three distinct violin section sizes to help you achieve the perfect balance in your mix:

• 2 VIOLINS – Small, intimate sound. Ideal for tight, expressive arrangements that cut through the mix.
• 6 VIOLINS – Perfect for unison sections, emulating the classic 6-piece string sections heard on countless soul hits.
• 12 VIOLINS – A richer, fuller sound, simulating overdubbed sections for a lush, layered feel without a symphonic sheen.

Each section has been carefully processed to retain the warmth, presence, and vibe of vintage soul recordings.
