A limited-time introductory discount is available at launch, making it the perfect moment to step into Hyperion Strings Ensemble. Authentic orchestral sound, modern playability, and cinematic depth – now more accessible than ever.
From the Intimate to the Astral
Hyperion Strings Ensemble is an orchestral string library focused on expressive sound, precise playability, and modern performance control. Designed to move seamlessly from subtle intimacy to expansive cinematic scoring.
At its core lies a 30-piece string ensemble featuring first and second violins, violas, cellos, and double basses. True legato and portamento transitions, detailed articulations, and dynamic expressions deliver a natural and highly responsive playing experience.
The instrument also includes a range of sound-designed elements such as atmospheric textures, pads, drones, and cinematic stingers - ideal for contemporary orchestral and hybrid scoring.
Four microphone positions (Stage, Close, Mid, and Far) allow flexible sound shaping from close detail to wide ambient depth. A 12-layer system enables fast construction of complex, full orchestral textures.
Advanced performance features such as articulation blending, velocity layering, crossfades, Follow Mode, and an integrated arpeggiator provide detailed real-time control over expression, motion, and dynamics.
