Produced for modern, over-the-top trailer-scoring projects, Musical Sampling Trailer Bundle - Strings & Brass Librariesis a Kontakt-powered virtual instrument that aims to deliver the loudest, biggest-sounding string library. It provides composers, arrangers, and producers with an assortment of short and long articulations performed in a large concert hall by a 60-string ensemble set on delivering maximum volume.

To achieve an exceptionally wide dynamic range, Trailer Strings offers true FFF and ppp samples recorded at 24-bit / 48 kHz using three microphone positions, with the players positioned evenly across the stage. It uses Morph Stacking programming techniques so you can play any note length and still sound natural. The To Silence function enables the Mod wheel to bring the volume of the instrument all the way down to silence.

The library comprises a variety of articulations including spiccato, staccato, marcato, sustain, and cluster effects. It also features Adventure patches intended for loud passages, as well as breakout keyswitch patches, useful for easily auditioning and selecting articulations. For those who like to quantize, Humanization lets you randomize the start-note and end-note positions of any given note that is played.

Trailer Strings requires a full version of Kontakt 5.5.1 or later (available separately) and can be used as a plug-in or standalone on Mac and Windows computers.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this fit on a Leica M4-P hotshoe? The Leica M4-P has a pin at the end of the hotshoe.

A: No, Leica only lists the new Q3 as compatible with the Leica Hot Shoe Cover (Brass, Blasted Finish).

Q: 2. Will this fit my YASHICA Electro 35 GS? The rewind knob is right next to the shoe, and this seems to lay pretty flat against the top of the camera. Is there a better option for one with a knob like that?

A: It looks like the TTArtisan Meter will not fit on the Yashicha 35 GBS because it would cover some of the camera's buttons. You can use a not hot shoe mounted Light Meter, such as this one https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1390250-REG/sekonic_401_305_l_308x_u_flashmate_light_meter.html.

Q: 3. Do you have to unscrew this hood if you are using a ND variable or circular filter?

A: Yes, you have to unscrew the Leica Round Lens Hood Q if you are using an ND variable or a circular polarizer filter. If you are using a circular UV / clear filter, you don't have to remove this hood.

Q: 4. What is the mm diameter of this soft release? they are usually available in 8mm or 12mm sizes, but Im not sure which this is.

A: This soft release is 12mm

Q: 5. Can this meter light for extremely dark shots like the night sky that might require 30" exposures?

A: The TTArtisan Meter (Silver) is not necessarily designed for outdoor nighttime photography. The TTArtisan Meter (Silver) has an exposure range from 1 to 1/2,000 second, an aperture range of f/1.0 to f/22, and an ISO range from ISO 25 to ISO 3,200. Using EV -3 as the exposure value for a night sky away from city lights under a full moon, you would need a lens of f/2.0 or brighter to meter properly with this light meter under these lighting conditions.

Q: 6. Can you mount this to a Rollei TLR?

A: The TTArtisan Light Meter (Silver) uses a cold shoe mount to mount to a camera. The Rollei TLR does not have a shoe mount and so cannot mount this meter directly.

Q: 7. What is the hole for in the spigot?

A: I've used the hole a few times to tighten, using a screwdriver or hex wrench. Avoid excessive tightening.

Q: 8. fits only lens or too lens square hood?

A: The Leica Lens Cap Q (Brass, Blasted Finish) is for the lens with out the hood.

Q: 9. Will this work on Canon R models?

Q: 10. Will this work on the Nikon Zf?

A: Yes, the Clever Supply Co. Brass Soft Shutter Button (Brass) will work on the Nikon ZF.
