“Knock me over with a feather! “

” Beautiful stuff, always love what you guys do”
AMBi
” This is one delicate, classy, inspiring library. Had finally the chance to start putting it to work. Recommended!”
AudioLoco
“I love how sparse and randomly these swarm-like scattered articulations were recorded. Must have taken the players a lot of restraint to not do too much. Very useful!”
WunderFlo
“Feathersome is an anthology of soft tones, almost overwhelming but in a good way ..some of those articulations seem to be unique in the sampling world. Hats off to the players !“
E. Rousseau
“Vivid unusual patches that adds life, tenderness, credibility and tension. “
Jeff R
“Gorgeous library of textures and tones you simply just can’t get from a standard string library.”
d4vec4rter
“I just like to mention that I am loving how this library sounds with close voicings, dissonances and even quartertones. It is quite amazing ! I don’t know how you guys did it but…you did it ! Also plays beautiful stuff…beautifully :D”

Imagine a cold autumn afternoon, where the salty breeze gently drifts in from the sea. Overhead, the sky is a vast, cloudless expanse, stretching east over the Atlantic, where seagulls gracefully glide above schooners and sleek cutters cutting through the water.
As the season deepens, vibrant rose hips glow tomato-red, hanging heavy amidst the lush, shiny green leaves. Around them, vines of honeysuckle and black raspberry intertwine with the dune grass, adding sweet, earthy notes to the coastal breeze.
Feathersome Strings reflects this serene landscape, blending lush, nuanced tones with a natural, airy lightness. Each note, like a breeze, whispers and soars, creating soundscapes as vivid and alive as this peaceful seaside scene.
