This disc was originally released as an Akai S1000 (Includes ISO AKAi ORiGiNAL) disc which contained about 320 MB of samples. A floppy Macros disc was programmed to make a smoother translation from Akai to Kontakt format.
Every waveform from these iconic monosynths was carefully sampled — along with unique, custom modulated tones that push them into new territory.
LUX Orchestral Strings is unlike any product we have ever made. From the very beginning we set out to create something that felt as close as possible to standing on the scoring stage. Our most ambitious library to date, designed so that composers can be even more ambitious with their music. LUX Orchestral Strings is not just another string library. It is a 70-piece symphonic string ensemble, recorded on a large scoring stage with unprecedented realism, warmth and scale. It puts you right in the room with the orchestra.

Nordic Folk Strings is a Kontakt library based on tagelharpa, the traditional three-strings instrument from Scandinavia. It’s a collaborative project with singer and tagelharpa expert Alessandra Cognetta (Omen, Hellen), who has recorded the whole source material. Nordic Folk Strings features 2 models of tagelharpa, Bass Tagelharpa and Standard Tagelharpa. The former features a darker, lower sound whereas the latter presents a more typically Vikingreminiscent tone. Both have been sampled at different time ranges, with different kind of rhythms (straight and triplets) , different tunings and tones. Rather than sampling long sustained notes, in Nordic Folk Strings we have sampled rhythmic movements, in order to preserve the raw authenticity of the tagelharpa. The movements loops are tempo synched to the DAW and can be combined creatively by using our custom scripted Rhythmic Legato and the innovative Movements Sequencer.
