Session Strings 2

Session Strings 2 by Native Instruments delivers the warm, detailed sound of an 11-piece string ensemble—four violins, three violas, two celli, and two double basses—recorded with vintage instruments by top session players in a renowned German studio. Ideal for pop, R&B, dance tracks, and modern scores, it offers 14 articulations including legato, portamento, pizzicato, and crescendo. Smart play-assistance features like True Legato, Smart Voice Split, Smart Chord, and Rhythm Animator make it easy to build natural chord voicings and moving arrangements from single keys. A Color knob provides one-knob multi-effect transformation. With its sleek interface and focus on quick creative results, Session Strings 2 suits hobby producers and composers who want expressive, intimate strings without deep orchestration knowledge. It runs on Windows and macOS in all major DAWs.
