10 Positive User Reviews for Oriental Strings
Wonderful sounds
The preset sounds are great, rich, leaning towards the "dramatic" side, but a nice selection. Controls and UI is good. MIDI CC for program change does sort of work, but is flaky, changing the presets, but not in the correct order, and the large preset name on the screen does not update to the currently selected one, though it does when not controlling through midi. With a few minor fixes, this app will be A+.
High quality sounds
Crudebyte really turned up the notch last fall when they upgraded iSymphonic and then released this Oriental Strings app. Then, they made both of the apps universal; that was a wonderful thing for me (large capacity iPhone). The app string sounds were improved quite a lot since the initial release and now they are smooth and quite beautiful.
OUTSTANDING!!!
I Love These String Sounds!!! As With Any CRUDEBYTE Product,Quality Is AWESOME!!
If You Want Eastern String Sounds,Search No
Further!! This App Is Nothing Short of OUTSTANDING !!! No Regrets!!! Get It Now !!!
Love it
This and the other iSymphonic offerings are definite tools that should be in every sound designers tool box. If real natural sounding orchestral strings is your thing, then buy this app.
Great app - Great support
I bought this app when it first came out, and I've used it on many tunes. The sounds are very rich and exotic, and they add drama and excitement to any production.
Recently, I had occasion to contact them because of an issue in a song I was arranging.
It was nearly 5:00 in the afternoon EST and I thought I'd probably hear from them after the weekend. 15 minutes later I received a reply that led to me solving the problem. The problem that I had created.
I consider that to be exemplary customer se
Fantastic App!
It's not just limited to exotic tonalities. It is also great for solid "English strings" (George Martin, Glyn Johns, Paul Buckmaster, etc...)
Incredibly versatile and worth every penny.
Recommended!
Quality. Amazing.
This little library is bomb. It works great on its own. If you’re using iSymphonic. The attack’s from this library can take the legato patches in iSymphonic and give you a whole new set of patches for iSymphonic. Think of this as another expansion for iSymphonic and you’ll be glad you did. And it completes the thing I feel is missing in iSymphonic: edgier attacks for some of the patches. Found em. And on its own. This library is KILLER. amazing quality. Accurate as heck to the genre it’s
Isn’t Tanpura a strung instrument
Please add Tanpura. Make this app even more special just by adding this one instrument.

Wish I hadn't bought this
I'm used to high quality string instruments from embertone on my pc so this was a disappointment. I played with this for about 15 minutes and then deleted it. Too cheesy for me.
Sound probs
Several of the instruments are the exact same sample. Exactly the same. I believe there is a bug switching the sounds in the app perhaps?
