In this article, we'll dive into the rich world of cinematic strings. We'll discuss what they are and where to get them. And we'll show you a few quick tips for using them in your tracks, too. So let's cut right to the chase: if you want cinematic strings in your music, here are the best sources for downloading them: • Timpani Loops (http://www.tonewheelmusic.com/timpani-loops/) is a free website that offers an extensive selection of loops recorded on timpani drums and percussion instruments such as timpani, cajon, djembe, hand drum and ethnic drums from around the world. It makes great bed tracks for movies. • Soundtrack Loops (http://www.soundtrackloops.com/) has a selection of free loops that includes some orchestral strings samples that can be used for absolutely free. • Sample Tools by Cr2 (http://www.sample-tools.net/) has a couple of sample libraries that include cinematic strings instruments, including the Cinematic Strings Beds pack and the Orchestral Essentials pack, both available for purchase at reasonable prices (about $40 to $50 each). When I describe cinematic strings to people, their reaction is often "that sounds like an oxymoron. How can strings sound cinematic?" I know what they mean. Those who have had even a short exposure to orchestral music know that while it can be somewhat "cinematic," it's not exactly what you might think of when the word "cinematic" is used. For some reason, people expect a sound that has a sense of being "played on instruments from the real world," which might be why so many find cinematic strings to be oxymoronic. But surely if you use stringed instruments, you want the sound to have some sense of being played in a real-world setting? Well, not necessarily. I'm not talking about the sound of an orchestra here. I'm talking about the sound of a few instruments — say, two or three — that together can evoke a sense of being in a movie. And in my opinion, there's nothing wrong with that! So what is cinematic strings? I use it in situations where I want an instrument or instruments to contribute to the atmosphere and emotion of the music. There's no sense of "realism" here; I'm talking about getting a mood across with musical instruments. In fact, often when I use cinematic strings, they're used in ways that would be considered unorthodox for classical or even most non-classical styles. And that, in turn, leads to the next question: The answer to that is "it depends." First let me tell you what I mean when I say "cinematic strings." Then we'll talk about using cinematic strings in your music. I'm often asked what type of string instruments are used in cinematic strings. The answer is "it depends." Nederpelt strings are the most common sound for cinematic strings, but if you want to get away from them you could use any type of instrument with a nice ethnic flavor (marimba, didgeridoo, etc.). But generally speaking, a set of Nederpelt Strings sounds great for a cinematic string texture. cfa1e77820
