Spitfire Audio Harp Swarm
KONTAKT | 9.55 GB
A nine harp adventure
Nine harps playing simultaneously spread out around the Hall at Air Studios. From hauntingly slow and fast tremolandi, to long and short plucks, harmonics, and what has to be the most extraordinary selection of cascading glissandi we've ever heard. The second instalment in the Swarm story offers instant inspiration and a broad variety of uses.
Overview
The obvious use of nine beautifully maintained harps, playing both on the scoring stage and in the galleries at Air studios, would be to engulf your listener in a cascade of sweeping glissandi. If you're a blockbuster composer working on fantasy and magical material, once you've had nine, you're unlikely to go back! Swarm 2 delivers some staggering epic glissandi resonating around this world renowned hall. But this is only the beginning! The plucks and plucked harmonics offer a hauntingly epic melodic universe that will happily straddle larger strident orchestral arrangements at all dynamics. However, the Spitfire team feel the real magic of this library lies in the slow, fast and granular tremolandi, ranging from a soft choral sea of calm to a ferocious rain storm. Great for anything other-worldly, science fiction, mystery and horror. The long strings, with full speed and dynamic control, have an inherent kinetic movement and energy, even when playing simple and slow chords. This is a magical tool, providing you with new pastures of inspiration.
