SamplesLoops Spitfire Albion 2 - Loegria released! 25% off!

Hi everyone!

A year after the initial release of Albion Volume 1, we're proud to announce the arrival of her younger brother Loegria. Concentrating on cinematic beauty and detail this is quite frankly the most sumptuous library we have ever made.

Some of the world's finest players, playing the finest instruments, recorded at Air studios through the finest vintage valve and ribbon microphones to tape! This is quite simply audio custard.

Designed as a stand-alone "all you would need out of the box" Albion II contains content from entirely new sessions with a smaller and more delicious chamber sized string section and some esoteric brass and wind ensembles. The strings contain a greater variety of articulations than the original epic Albion, and is designed to perfectly compliment the first library with greater diversity but also detail and accuracy where needed.

This orchestral delight is complimented by a raft of exciting cinematic and media composition tools including Darwin Percussion II, Stephenson's Steam Band II, Fenton's Reversals and The Byron Tapes.

For more information go HERE

The library is due to retail at £329 but to celebrate it's release will be available for two weeks with 25% off and with a 25% off voucher to spend on any other Spitfire products. So until the 13th of September Albion II will be available for the staggering £245.

You can see Albion 2 - Loegria in action in these youtube vids:





(NB this is a download only product direct from Spitfire Audio LLP all prices subject to VAT within the EU, 25% off vouchers will be distributed at the end of the promotional period, 30% educational discounts will also be available for Loegria AFTER this promotional period has ended)

ADD TO CART RIGHT THIS SECOND!!

I have spent about an hour so far with the various patches, and can say that, at this point, these are the most beautiful orchestral samples I have heard. I own a bunch of different sets, but this is just so inspiring...amazing job guys!

Would love to hear a snippet mate if it's a compo u're allowed to share.

Meanwhile, looking forward to hear more Audio Demo from SpitfireAudio, some amazing lushy or very moving Drama Audio examples.

Very tempting!

Could somebody put up a short strings demo going through the various mic positions and combinations please?

I can't really work out how close / dry it's possible to get with the strings, from the demos I've checked.

Great sounds but am wondering if you guys will ever incorporate true legato into patches like the sordinos....no matter how good the patches of any library sound, if you can't transition between notes without that huge sucking sound it's a real show stopper.

Hi Oceantracks - Albion 1 has true legato in the sordino patches in the high strings.

Albion is not intended to be a comprehensive series though, its a relatively detailed broad strokes set of tools.

Thanks for your kind comments though!

So yes,

Bought it, and downloading as we speak.

Very excited with this (looks like a quite special) Library.



Thanks

I just took an hour off my current project to do a quick technical demo of the legato half high and full low string section patches:

It also has a splash of harmonic and flautando in there too.

They are very agile, and can play strongly as well as softly.

Cheers,

Paul

Yep.... just snagged it last night

Such a beautiful sound to this library. I'm amazed at the S/N ratio with the ultra light dynamics considering all the vintage gear and tape involved. Regardless of any post processing, the engineers truely got this one right! It should serve nicely as the backbone in my new template, and with the 25% off I'll finally grab that lovely Spitfire Percussion.
