Recorded at the illustrious Eastwood Scoring Stage, this plugin blends the richness of traditional orchestral strings with innovative sound design, making it a must-have for composers who want to push boundaries in film, game, and television music.

At its core, NOVO features a 50-piece orchestra captured in exquisite detail, offering an authentic string sound reminiscent of Hollywood legends. The instrument's versatility is amplified by its advanced features, including auto down-and-up bowing for natural staccato and spiccato performances, and multiple mic positions to suit any project.
