Cremona Quartet Solo is described as an exquisite strings collection, and its contents are among the most celebrated instruments in existence: four of the world's most valued string instruments: Stradivari Violin, Guarneri Violin, Amati Viola, and Stradivari Cello. Its provenance is documented: recorded in Cremona's Auditorium Giovanni Arvedi, renowned for its acoustics and specifically crafted to amplify the authentic soul of string instruments — Cremona being the city where Stradivari and Guarneri worked, which is why the collection carries that name. Its specifications are documented in unusual detail. The Cremona Quartet Solo download is 121 GB, against Cremona Quartet Ensemble at 17.89 GB and the Cremona Quartet Bundle at 134 GB — the Solo edition being far larger because each instrument is sampled individually and in depth rather than as an ensemble. The individual instrument sizes illustrate the scale of the sampling: Stradivari Violin 29.90 GB, Guarneri Violin 30.85 GB, Amati Viola 29.52 GB, and Stradivari Cello 30.82 GB, at 24-bit, 48 kHz. Articulation counts are 20 professionally played articulations for Solo and 25 for Ensemble. A Version 2.0 update extended the expressiveness of the individual instruments: this vital expressiveness is now extended to the Quartet Solo Instruments with their Version 2.0 update, embedding the same level of genuine, nuanced vibrato within these individual virtual instruments. It is NKS compatible and priced at $399.00 for Solo, with the Bundle at $499.00. Requirements are free Kontakt Player or Kontakt version 8.1.0 and higher, with an Intel Core i5 or equivalent CPU, or Apple Silicon, 4 GB RAM (6 GB recommended), graphics hardware support for Direct 3D 11.1 (Feature Level 11_0) or higher, and an internet connection and a graphics card supporting OpenGL 2.1 or higher required to download and activate — after which the product can be used offline. It was developed by e-instruments. It suits classical, film and television scoring, and any production requiring a solo string performance of the highest fidelity. #CremonaQuartetSolo #CremonaQuartet #NativeInstruments #eInstruments #Stradivari #Guarneri #Amati #Violin #Viola #Cello #SoloStrings #Kontakt #KontaktPlayer #NKS #Classical #FilmScore #Television #Scoring #SoundDesign #MusicProduction #VST #VST3 #AU #AAX #Standalone #LogicPro #Cubase
