Augmented Strings was the first title in Arturia's Augmented series. It pairs recordings of solo and ensemble strings — violin, viola, cello and double bass — with four synthesis engines. On Mac it works as both a string library for realistic parts and a sound-design tool for evolving, cinematic textures that no real section could play.

Key Features

• Solo, chamber and orchestral string recordings with many articulations
• Four synth engines: virtual analog, granular, wavetable and harmonic
• Two layers per preset, each with two sound sources
• Morph control plus macros for time, colour, motion and effects
• Hundreds of presets, from realistic strings to abstract soundscapes

System Requirements

This Augmented instrument needs a recent version of macOS (Arturia lists macOS 11 or later for the current Augmented range) and a 64-bit DAW for plugin use. It runs on Intel and Apple silicon Macs, and needs a few gigabytes of free space for its sample content.

FAQs

What does the Morph control do?

Morph is the centre of every Augmented instrument. One knob blends between the acoustic sample layer and the synthesis layers, so a sound can move from natural to electronic in a single gesture.

Can I try it before buying?

Arturia offers demos of its software instruments through the Arturia Software Center, and the instruments are also included in the Augmented Series bundle. Check the official site for current pricing and trial options.
