Composing With: Legato Cello by Murst Instruments
“This library is a legato, monophonic version of the Cello featured in the Pivot bank of Stone. It focuses on the articulation and expression of a solo Cello. The recording was made with one very close mic and one room mic, capturing a lovely bow texture and resonance from the body of the Cello. The instrument features three velocity layers and scripted vibrato to add articulation”
Digital cello enthusiasts may like their standards from other brands. Murst Instruments’ Legato Cello is a steal at $29 USD and won’t be the classical variety but will add a uniqueness to any standard pop track or film score. With some points in my account from Plugin Boutique, I snapped it up for $15!
For my The Pact film score, I worked with a mix of cello sounds, one of them being Murst Instrument’s nifty, little tool. Available for the free Kontakt Player 6.3.1 and above, it requires a low 100MB of free drive space.
For anyone who loves horror and naturally has a spooky composing style, the sound with some reverb enhances the eerie on its own as a solo line. Atop other blends, it is really something magical!
Legato Cello is available at Plugin Boutique.
