Abbey Road Studio One
Enter the room most composers can only dream of: Abbey Road's Studio One.
Considered one of the finest acoustical spaces in the world, Studio One's history has an indelible connection with the scores recorded there, providing emotion, mood, and magic for many of the most renowned and successful films ever made.
Such classics as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Avengers: Endgame - all were recorded in Studio One.
With its rich tonality, deep low end, and famed reverb, Studio One's sound is widescreen and epic.
Truly, it is the iconic sound of cinema.
At Spitfire Audio, our approach is to always record sample libraries in the same way that film scores are recorded, and Sparkling Woodwinds is no exception.
This library, and indeed all of the Abbey Road One Selections, puts the same first-call musicians that play on globally-successful movies at your fingertips, all recorded by multi GRAMMY Award-winning engineer Simon Rhodes (Avatar, Hugo, Harry Potter) and featuring the legendary Abbey Road microphones and outboard gear.
Building on Orchestral Foundations
Expanding on Abbey Road One: Orchestral Foundations, a 90-piece symphonic orchestra that was our first partnership with Abbey Road Studios, Sparkling Woodwinds is a fully-fledged, stand-alone library.
Recorded the same way your favorite composer would - the unmistakable acoustics of Abbey Road Studio One, exceptional players, award-winning sound engineers and priceless microphones, all allowing you to quickly and easily create film scores.
Level up your existing symphonic orchestra toolkit or pair with Orchestral Foundations to get the classic cinematic woodwind sound.
With a beautiful, modern design, Sparkling Woodwinds and indeed all of the Abbey Road One Selections are housed in Spitfire's award-winning plugin, which loads directly into all major DAWs without the need for any additional software.
