Hollywood, CA (March 30, 2016) – EastWest, the industry leader in virtualinstruments, has released Hollywood Solo Violin, the final piece of the Hollywood Solo Instruments designed to work with their flagship Hollywood Orchestra, Hollywood Solo Cello, and Hollywood Harp to emulate a large studio orchestra.
Following the releases of Hollywood Harp and Hollywood Solo Cello, Hollywood Solo Violin is now available as download for ComposerCloud subscribers. Additionally, EastWest offers bundles with all three Solo instruments for purchase, as well as a bundle with just Solo Cello and Solo Violin for those that received Hollywood Harp previously.
In true EastWest fashion, Hollywood Solo Violin provides an exceptionally detailed and realistic reproduction of the violin. Produced by Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix, and engineered by Shawn Murphy, who recently recorded John Williams’ score for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Hollywood Solo Violin is an essential addition to the Hollywood series. It was recorded in Studio 1 at EastWest Studios, where Hollywood Orchestra was recorded, giving the libraries a consistent sound and ambience.
