PERIOD.<\/h3>\n<p class=\"fade-in\">Introducing Hollywood Strings 2, a brand-new addition to our celebrated Hollywood Orchestral series. Brought to you by the same award-winning team as the original, Hollywood Strings 2 features a 21-piece string ensemble recorded in our legendary\u00a0EastWest Studio 2\u00a0using close mic techniques never achieved before \u2014 until now. While Hollywood Strings 1 excels at epic blockbuster soundtracks, Hollywood Strings 2 is perfect for those in-your-face, emotional moments in your score. With high precision playing and fast articulations, its versatility also makes it well-suited for modern genres like pop, rock, hip hop and more. Rather than replacing Hollywood Strings 1, this sequel serves as the perfect compliment so you can compose everything from intimate studio pieces to full-on orchestrations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fullimage fade-in\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.soundsonline.com\/images\/hs2_interface-lineup_1@2x.png\" alt=\"Hollywood Strings 2 Interfaces\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fullmedia-section dark-section hs2-quote-section\">\n<div class=\"media-container\">\n<div class=\"mediatext fade-in extra-padding\">\n<div class=\"wrapper big align-left clear-after\">\n<div class=\"big-quotes\">\n<div class=\"mediawrapper\">\n<div class=\"instrument-mediawrapper\">\n<h3 class=\"endorsement fade-in\">A worthy addition to the Hollywood Orchestra stable, Hollywood Strings 2 is a bit of a triumph.<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"endorser fr fade-in\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.soundsonline.com\/images\/endorser_sos_red_3@2x.png\" alt=\"Sound on Sound\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<div class=\"content-container\">\n<div class=\"fade-in add-bottom\">\n<h3 class=\"big-heading\">WATCH THE WALKTHROUGH<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"fullimage fade-in some-bottom\"><a class=\"fullimage\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/U7STe0IWsS8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.soundsonline.com\/images\/hs2_thumbnail-walkthrough_2@2x.jpg\" alt=\"Watch the official Hollywood Strings 2 Walkthrough\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content-container\">\n<h3 class=\"big-heading fade-in\">EMOTIONAL.

There\u2019s no limit to the depth you can create \u2014 Hollywood Strings 2 is even Atmos-ready, so you can create Atmos mixes in DAWs that support Atmos.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day, Weezer, and Metallica also selected\u00a0Studio 2 for its tight and punchy sound! It\u2019s only fitting that these strings suit cinematic metal or heavy rock as well as they would an epic film cue.
