What We Do
We record live strings at affordable prices, helping producers make their music stand out. Our team of musicians can produce anything from solo violin to 60 piece orchestras (including violin, viola, cello and bass) from the comfort of our own studios. Our work appears on but is not limited to: commercials, albums, video games, and films.
Why should you work with us? 1) Price. Who wouldn’t add gorgeous string arrangements to their music if it were affordable? Well now it is affordable, and you only pay once you’re totally satisfied. Rather than hiring contractors, arrangers, individual players, and studio time, we save our clients lots of money by consolidating these services remotely.
2) Service- Let us help you make your life easier! The only time you need to spend is while reviewing the tracks we send you. We compose, arrange, transcribe and improvise in any genre and will make your tracks come alive whether or not you have charts.
3) We work quickly – offering same-day turnaround on many projects, providing a fixed quote for each job that includes free revisions until the client is happy.
4) Oh yeah, we sound great because our string recording team demands the highest quality in performance, arranging, and engineering. Led by world renowned violinist Christian Howes (former Assoc. Professor, Berklee College of Music and longtime collaborator with Les Paul), our playing is emotional and authentic whether we’re working on a bluegrass fiddle solo, neo-classical piece, or hip hop track. String arrangements, when done right, will help your music stand out and grab people’s attention. Don’t take our word for it, decide for yourself:
