8Dio – Agitato Grandiose Ensemble Cellos (KONTAKT)

Additional Information:

Agitato Grandiose Legato for Cellos is inspired by the soaring melodic styles of Williams and Mancini. We recorded both Ensemble and Divisi Cellos, which are offered as stand-alone and bundled libraries. The concept of these libraries is to nail that fast, soaring, melodic Hollywood legato we’ve always wanted, but never had. The Agitato Grandiose String series are completely compatible with our Adagio and Adagietto series, yet we also designed them to be compatible with other string libraries, so you can use it however you like.
Produced by Academy Award, TEC and GANG Award Winning Composer, Troels Folmann and Emmy Nominated composer, Colin O’Malley. The 8Dio Agitato Expansion series is the third branch to our existing Adagietto and Adagio String Collections. The Agitato Expansion series addresses to most sought-after sting articulations, including Grandioso Soaring Legato, Hyper-Fast Legato, True Ostinato and Soaring Sordino. Agitato was recorded in the same large and lush church as our Adagio & Adagietto series.
Agitato Grandiose Legato Cellos bundle consists of 14 different types of legato, starting with our new beautiful and smooth sustain x-fade. We also included more gentle legatos (ex. Gentle and gentle detache), however if you are looking for a traditional soaring Hollywood inspired sound – we recommend our two Mancini Legatos, which brings forward that gorgeous, intense molto vibrato. The bundle contains both Ensemble and Divisi Grandiose Legato. Fully compatible with the existing Adagio and Adagietto Strings Series, but also designed for full compatibility with any 3rd party string library.
Agitato Grandiose Legato contains a completely new legato system, which is more flexible then ever. You have full control over dynamics and expression, including the ability to link the two. In addition we have a new highly adaptive legato speed system, which really allows the legato to adapt to your compositional style and preference.
Hyper-Realistic Legato
Agitato Grandiose Legato for Ensemble and Divisi Cellos nails something incredibly rare. It nails the true vibrant sound of a passionate 6 and 3 piece Cello Ensemble. You won’t sit and wonder why it doesn’t sound real or why the strings are not “singing”. This library is about that soaring lushness of strong melodic strings. It is designed to sit in the forefront of your orchestration and both compatible with 8Dio Adagio and Adagietto – but also designed to work with 3rd party string libraries. The Grandiose Legato contains 7 different types of legato – from traditional x-fade sustains to 8Dio’s new legato system allowing you to blend legato with other bowing techniques.

We want everyone to experience Agitato for free, which is why we’ve created a free Try-Pack edition of our Agitato Grandiose Legato. Yup – for FREE!

You will be able to try all the legato types and match them against any string library of your choice.
