Field notes

Aperçu

Westwood Trinity Strings is a sampled small string section, released in October 2026, built from three players performing in octaves. It keeps the microphone bleed between the players and the natural drift in their tuning, aiming for a real group that sits between a soloist and a full orchestra.

It includes Movements, Performance, Improvisations, Shorts, Scattered Shorts, and Swells, with Modern, Studio, and Vintage mic mixes plus spot and room captures, over 100 presets, and a 14 effect Foundry rack. It is self contained with no Kontakt required, and loads as VST, VST3, AU, and AAX on macOS 12 or later and Windows 10 or later. The launch price is £47, down from £79.
