Spitfire Audio have released a scaled down version of their classic workhorse library, Chamber Strings.

From their fine detail, ambience and highly sought after timbre, Chamber Strings is a library that is reached for time and time again. In Chamber Strings Essentials, you have everything you need to work those string writing muscles. Join Chester Yourczek as he downsizes to a small chamber sized studio in the country.

Aliens, aliens, aliens! What noises do they make? That is the whole problem with aliens, is you just can't trust them. Occasionally you meet a nice one: Starman, E.T. But usually they turn out to be some kind of big lizard! Of course, Red Room Audio met a great group of Martian friends and sampled their percussion. Possibly the most....obscure body in the SK system....no wait, intro to a video ever, however, that is what Saga 2 - Alien Organic Percussion is all about. Crazy, awesome sounds which quite literally sound out of this world! Join Marcus "Da Fingaz" as gets beamed aboard a flying saucer and clatters his way around!
