Spitfire Audio announces Hans Zimmer Strings

Spitfire Audio has announced upcoming availability of Hans Zimmer Strings.

Here's what they say: "To create the greatest film scores in the world, you need to think outside the box. Hans Zimmer, the "Godfather of Orchestral Sampling", came to Spitfire to produce this innovation; 344 players, AIR Studios... Only technology can allow you to play an ensemble this big. From thundering basslines to glass-like high strings, this is symphonic strings maximised."

With the help of design and user experience agency UsTwo (Monument Valley, DICE), Hans Zimmer Strings is available as a plug-in developed primarily for composers, by composers.

From March 28, 2018, Hans Zimmer Strings will be available as a dedicated (AAX, AU, VST2, and VST3) plug-in for Mac OS X and Windows — 184 GB HD or SSD space required.

Spitfire Audio is accepting pre-orders at a time-limited introductory promo price of £549.00 (inc. VAT) / $599.00 / €599.00 (inc. VAT) — rising thereafter to an MSRP of £699.00 (inc. VAT) / $799.00 / €799 (inc. VAT). Anyone pre-ordering will receive the limited-edition Hans Zimmer Strings book.
