  • Nice work, Christian. The strings in "Strings and Marimba" are terrific. I haven't used the string runs yet, but after hearing this I'm gonna have to investigate them carefully.

    "The Hunter" was an amusing bit of sound design.

  • I agree, the string runs sound very full. Was anything layered or did you use only the run samples?

  • That´s not fair. [8o|] Now I *really* want to have Opus2.

  • Hi all,

    It´s always nice to hear, that you like what we are doing here in vienna.
    No nothing was layerd with the strings, just the pure Opus2 samples. I only "borrowd" VI-14, VA-10, and VC-8 stac for the first chord of the piece and
    KB-6_pz from Opus1 [[;)]]
    The rest is just Opus2.

    All other demos only use patches from the specific product.
