Stringscapes by Benjamin Wallfisch

Contemporary string textures and effects for SINE, recorded at Teldex with a 14/12/10/10/6 string orchestra: long aleatoric and extended-technique performances plus a second set of processed sound-design patches (79 patches in 11 groups). It includes an immersive Atmos mic setup and a mix by Benjamin Wallfisch.

How to use it in horror

Place a long, evolving cluster performance under a scene and crossfade into one of the processed horror patches as the tension breaks, keeping the same orchestral room sound throughout.
