[Original Library & (pre-built .nicnt version)]

Tight Low Strings delivers aggressive, punchy low string staccatos with exceptional clarity and definition. Featuring cellos and double basses captured with a modern sampling approach, where performances were interpreted rather than recorded note-by-note. This preserves natural musical flow and connection between notes, even in fast ostinato passages. Designed for composers who need a powerful, tight bottom end that cuts through the mix without the typical mud and rumble of conventional low string libraries.
