Now at Pulse Audio: 70% off Pattern Strings by Ben Osterhouse

by

Pulse Audio just launched its Weekly Deal featuring 70% off Pattern Strings by Ben Osterhouse.  This rhythmic string library is available for just $26.70 (regular price $89) until August 25th, 2023.  It requires the full version of Kontakt 5.8.1 or higher.  More details from Pulse below.

 

Pattern Strings offers a unique approach to ostinatos by providing a collection of tempo-synced rhythmic fragments.  These 19 rhythms have been recorded at two dynamic layers on violin, viola, cello, and bass, with 4 round robins.

The interface utilizes an intuitive drag and drop mechanic which allows you to arrange the rhythms into sequences in which all the rhythms flow together with natural phrasing and musicality.

With Legato turned on, new notes start sync-ed with previous held notes. This way it’s possible to create convincing lines by changing notes according to the rhythms, as seen in the demos.  Pattern Strings has an Automatic Bow Direction feature. It plays downbow samples on downbeats and upbow samples on upbeats, which creates a natural ebb and flow between beats.
