This tugs on the heart strings man, it's absolutely gorgeous. Great note choice and the high violin notes are incredibly moving. I love this and it's the reason I now own MSS, thank you.

[@MatthijsDierckx]

You're too kind :) Thank you

[@iftekharulanam]

I practically bought MSS because of this video and the ensemble patch the library has. Thank you. 🎵

[@brandonreihana]

same here dude.

the violins from around 0:18 to 0:19 are like nothing I've heard from a string library before. the emotional intensity of the sound totally blew me away. one thing that I'm less impressed with is that the overall sound doesn't strike me as modern at all, which is not a problem if that's what you're looking for, but the word "modern" in the title was the main draw for me. the character of the strings sounds pretty timeless to me, but only in the sense that it's a nostalgic sound that still works. but it's not what I would consider truly timeless, which would be a sound that has remained popular for a long time and still doesn't feel dated or like a throwback to an earlier time. but that's just my personal take, and it's also very possible that it would sound more modern in a different composition or with different settings.

[@cesmcmyth]

That's very touching. 👏👏

[@milessafford]

Brilliant work….wow.

[@auxorion]

Gorgeous! Well done!

[@patrickschilcher9386]

Beautiful!!

[@joewhitfield6316]

Great job!

[@mrm9677]

can you please explain how to get it to sound this good ?

[@sourcefor]

Fantastic you should do a walkthrough

[@firestorm6167]

Better than spitfire..in my opinion

[@markgerazzi9073]

The high end on these strings is just terrible and cant be EQ'd without losing vital sound. I wish the Sul Tasto strings were the legato arcs. I use them for slow passages, keep it 50% below modulation and use only expression + volume. Realist sound I ever got, give it a try!

[@Pax30001]

Beautiful music! I'd like to ask please, does it have an included Portamento technique or the portamento here is created in the daw?

[@MatthijsDierckx]

Thank you :) The portamento is included in the library (legato, portamento, glissando, including transition speed & volume control).

[@Pax30001]

@@MatthijsDierckx Awesome!!

[@trifravol1676]

👏👏

[@ClicStudio]

Very nice! Did you use solo strings too for this mock up? The violins have so much vibrato they sound like one violin

[@MatthijsDierckx]

Yes, if I recall correctly, the highest lines are played by the solo violin I.

[@willboxuni]

A bit too much articulating by using the portamento slides. But great work!

[@wrAIth-AI]

How did you glissando/portamento your strings in the very start??❤ Was that a feature?

[@joewhitfield6316]

Use slightly less velocity than the preceding note. It takes a little bit of practice.

[@henrik5284]

The high register of the MSS violins sounds like someone is jamming big needles in my ear drums. Not a fan.

[@crystellik]

were the strings only Modern Scoring Strings or did u use other strings as well?

[@MatthijsDierckx]

IIRC I only used MSS, I'm pretty sure of that.

[@crystellik]

@@MatthijsDierckx What did you use for Brass

[@crystellik]

@@MatthijsDierckx what did u use for the brass?

[@BazzTriton]

Modern?

[@MatthijsDierckx]

Eh, yes, that's what the library is called.

[@mlorpf]

right? I can imagine this type of warm and sentimental sound might be a good fit for modern scores that are meant to evoke that classic feel of iconic John Williams' soundtracks, but that hardly makes it modern. maybe they mean modern in a similar sense as "modern art" (which wikipedia tells me is art produced between the 1860s and the 1970s)
