  • London Contemporary Orchestra Textures Spitfire Audio User Manual Congratulations
    LONDON CONTEMPORARY ORCHESTRA TEXTURES SPITFIRE AUDIO USER MANUAL CONGRATULATIONS Thank you for purchasing Spitfire Audio - London Contemporary Orchestra Textures. Our second collaborative venture with the internationally-acclaimed London Contemporary Orchestra took us to an awe-inspiring aircraft hangar for a re- cording process like no other. Together we have created a completely unique, never-before-sampled sound palette — a sophisticated collection of constantly evolving organic textures, formed by layering unexpected combinations of instru- ments (from tuned wine glasses, to felt piano to voices). In applying the signature workshopping, performance styles and innovative techniques that have made the LCO so sought after, we have produced textures made up of indefinable, fas- cinating sounds. To capture these textures, we needed a space with unparalleled acoustics, which led us to the most un- conventional recording space in Spitfire’s eleven year sampling history — a cavernous aircraft hangar in Suffolk, England, with a remarkable 10 second reverb tail — adding incredible resonance to each note. Enhanced with our unique Evo Grid technology and mixed by renowned mix engineer, Joe Rubel, we give you access to a cutting edge, inspiring collection of instantly playable, spellbinding textures which will add incredible depth and colour to your composition.

Behalve haar studie over het gebruik van slangwoorden bij jongeren en haar passie voor politieromans houdt ze zich ver van de donkere kant van het grootstadsleven. Tijdens een bezoek aan een bar is ze ongewild getuige van een intiem moment tussen een man en een vrouw. Verschrikt, maar evenzeer gefascineerd door de passie tussen deze twee vreemden, merkt ze slechts de zwoele blik en een tatoeage op van de man. Als er daags nadien een moord blijkt te zijn gepleegd in de buurt van Franny’s huis, wordt ze benaderd door detective Malloy (Mark Ruffalo), die vermoedt dat Franny meer weet.
