Strezov Sampling is a Sofia, Bulgaria-based developer of virtual instrument sample libraries, founded in 2012 by composer, conductor, and orchestrator George Strezov. The company grew out of Strezov's desire to build sampling tools that deliver realistic, professional results without extensive programming — an ethos captured in their philosophy of treating "samples as music, not data." The team consists of roughly a dozen composers and performing musicians who record real ensembles and soloists, deliberately preserving subtle imperfections to enhance the organic quality of their instruments.
Strezov Sampling is best known for its virtual choir libraries, including Stormchoir, Freyjá Female Choir, Árva Children Choir, Rhodope Ethnic Bulgarian Choir, and Choir Essentials. Their ethnic orchestra series — JADE Ethnic Orchestra (Chinese and Mongolian instruments), ARABIAN Ethnic Orchestra (Middle Eastern instruments recorded in Damascus), Balkan Ethnic Orchestra, and PRIMAL Ethnic Orchestra — represent some of the most deeply-sampled collections of non-Western instruments available. On the orchestral side, the Afflatus series covers strings and brass, while String Contours and DIAMOND Jazz Orchestra round out the catalog alongside a range of X3M percussion libraries.
Their instruments have been used in productions for studios and franchises including Blizzard, CD Projekt Red, Riot Games, Disney, Netflix, Ubisoft, Star Wars, and Avatar. All Strezov Sampling libraries run in Native Instruments Kontakt.
Strezov Sampling has 8 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Kontakt Instrument. Their gear is featured by 3 artists, with the strongest followings in Stage & Screen and Orchestra. Notable users include John Powell, Kevin Penkin, and Yuki hayashi.
