EastWest Hollywood Fantasy Strings
Historic Strings Virtual Instrument
Introducing Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra, a brand-new orchestra that includes everything you need to create fantasy film, television, and game soundtracks.
Produced by sound titans Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix, Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra includes unique ensembles of world instruments that have been featured in the biggest movies and games in history, mixed with modern octave-doubled orchestral sections that perfectly compliment Hollywood Orchestra, all with full stereo imaging mic placement and all the features of EastWest’s revolutionary Opus player.
If you're scoring the next big fantasy epic or medieval tale, adding in a few period solo instruments won't cut it - you need to bridge the gap between orchestral and world instruments.
Every instrument needs to earn its place in the mix to create a massive cinematic sound, so we created an entirely new orchestra that puts all the period instruments you need on the same stage.
Hollywood Fantasy Strings
Hollywood Fantasy Strings is the first iteration of Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra, putting 5 of the most iconic instruments from the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque eras at your fingertips alongside brand-new stylized recordings from modern-day orchestral musicians.
It includes true legato, diverse articulations, everything you need to produce the perfect fantasy cue to the highest professional standards.
East West infused it with the same power and flexibility as Hollywood Strings, with the same microphone placements, in the exact same studio, tailor-made to mix perfectly, so you can rest assured that your string libraries are all up to the task.
The First Step in A Long Journey
Hollywood Fantasy Strings is just the beginning of the Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra series, with Brass, Winds, Percussion, Voices, and the Hollywood Fantasy Orchestrator scoring engine (partnered with Sonuscore) all coming up this year.
Soon you'll have an entire collection of instruments at your fingertips perfect for creating cinematic fantasy masterpieces of any size and scale!
