FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New Vienna Instruments: CHAMBER STRINGS II

Small muted string ensembles now shipping

Vienna, June 18, 2008 – Responding to many user requests, the Vienna Symphonic Library team releases a
sequel to their successful small strings ensembles. The new Vienna Instruments Collection CHAMBER
STRINGS II, featuring the small muted sections of violins, violas, cellos, and double basses, is now available
from Vienna’s worldwide network of distributors and dealers.

VIP Offer through July 15, 2008

Registered users of both the Standard and the Extended Library of the Vienna Instruments Collection
Chamber Strings I will automatically receive a Full Library Activation Code upon registering the Standard
Library of Chamber Strings II before or on July 15, 2008. This means they will get the Extended Library of
Chamber Strings II for free.

Chamber Strings II
This collection offers 16.5 GB of all-new articulations and sonic subtleties for the small string ensembles.
Chamber Strings II contains many of the playing techniques that the first collection includes, but played “con
sordino” (with mutes). They lend themselves well to soft, intimate arrangements, and provide nuanced
variations to the user’s orchestral pallet.

The Chamber Strings II collection offers various facets of short and sustained notes, crescendos and
diminuendos, but also includes Vienna’s unique Interval Performances, such as legato, portamento, and trill
performances. All of the recorded samples were performed by an accomplished ensemble of string players
who have been lending their talents and their international experience to the Vienna Symphonic Library for
years. This collection reflects their mastery over their instruments, bringing the art of chamber music alive in
the composer’s personal studio.

Like all Vienna Instruments collections, Chamber Strings II is a sample-based virtual instrument that
supports the formats VST (OS X, Win XP/Vista), RTAS (OS X), AU (OS X), and also works stand-alone.
Registered users are eligible to download the free mixing and host software Vienna Ensemble 2.
