The Iconic Sound of Cinema

Create magical, lyrical woodwind lines with this brilliant set of performances captured in Abbey Road’s iconic Studio One.

This stunningly orchestrated woodwind section, performed by London's leading session players, lets you create everything from beautiful, reflective passages to sprightly runs using our new, easy-to-use legato patches.

This new selection includes the classic movie pairing of woodwinds and glockenspiel, adding energy and intrigue to your score and allowing you to lose yourself in the magical world of woodwinds.

And with Spitfire's new methods for capturing these legato performances, the virtual instruments are vital and alive.

Sparkling Woodwinds is available to purchase as a stand-alone library or as a brilliant addition to Abbey Road One: Orchestral Foundations.

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.

Easy to use, intuitive and inspiring, our plug-in has been designed by composers, for composers.

The Basics

iLok is a copy protection method used by many of our brands.

It has 3 types of activations, iLok USB, iLok Machine, and iLok Cloud.

Different brands/products will offer different iLok methods. iLok USB is always an option, but the availability of iLok Cloud and iLok Machine methods is at the discretion of the software developer.

iLok Account

For all iLok protected products, you will need an iLok account. You can create one for free here: ilok.com/#!registration

iLok License Manager

To manage your iLok licenses, there is a dedicated app called iLok License Manager. This app is used to register, activate, and move your licenses between locations.

You can download the latest installers from the iLok website: ilok.com/#!home

iLok USB Key

iLok USB

This activation is stored on an iLok 2 or 3 USB key.

It is the best option for portability, if you frequently move between multiple machines, and offline use.

iLok Machine ID

Machine ID

This activation is stored locally on your computer.

While this is a convenient way to work offline, and does not require the additional cost of an iLok USB, there is the risk of a license being lost in the case of a drive failure.

This option also requires extra care when you upgrade to a new computer, the license(s) must be deactivated on your old machine first to ensure you do not lose them.

iLok Cloud

iLok Cloud

This activation is based online, and requires a "cloud session" using the iLok License Manager.

It requires an active internet connection for the entire time you use the plugin(s).
