Larry Shelby Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 BACK TO THE RETRO FUTURE Paying homage to the great vintage string synthesizers of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, EastWest's String Machine virtual instrument brings the past into the future. Produced by sound titans Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix, String Machine includes samples from some of the greats – the ARP Solina, Oberheim OBX, Roland RS-505, and the Roland Jupiter 6 – and allows you to instantly combine them with modern strings, brass, woodwinds, and vocals to create unique vintage vibes perfect for your next pop, rock, or hip-hop masterpiece. String Machine's user interface takes inspiration from the design of vintage string machine synthesizers. From the chunky instrument switches adorned along the front panel, to the glide of envelope sliders, and the click of push buttons, String Machine's form and function is informed by the original hardware units. $199 https://www.soundsonline.com/synth-and-effects/string-machine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most things I do have at least one EW library, often more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure this is essential given how many alternatives I have but it does sound good, particularly the "choirs". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSteven Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Damn I wish EW would permit trial versions... I will probably pick this up down the line when it hits the 50-60% sales but if I would probably bite a lot sooner (and for more money) if I could verify that I actually use it in a current project or 2.

But it's stuff like this, when someone posts a deal and you find an even better deal, that frankly, when you weren't posting, made me hesitant to buy. Dead serious. Every time I saw a tempting deal, I kept thinking -- if Larry was around I could buy confidently knowing that I had the best possible deal. Nobody can touch your deal skills. Nobody. Respect Doctor Deals, folks. We learned what life is like without him. I don't want to go through that experience again. Glad you're here, Larry.

I agree with you PavlovsCat, I picked up a couple of great deals since Larry came back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitekrazy1 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 So now "Retro" is the next beat the dead horse in marketing. I think I have enough of this stuff just in synth presets that this is an easy pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleer Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 I like the way this blends four parts: synth strings, acoustic strings, brass and voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
