Spitfire Audio have just introduced four new titles in their Originals range, bringing the total count of libraries in the low-cost series to 21. Recorded at AIR Studios' Lyndhurst Hall and Spitfire Studios, the four new titles are said to extend the popular range into territory it hasn't yet explored, delivering everything from delicate, breath-textured brass and woodwinds to a virtuosic solo cello and an otherworldly instrument built from chromatically tuned glass rods. 

Here’s a quick look at each of the new titles and what they have to offer:

Created in collaboration with London-based cellist Reinoud Ford, Emotional Cello captures the full expressive range of the solo cello, from tender lyricism to visceral dread. Eleven techniques span delicate flautando to experimental circular bowing and no-rosin textures, across three mic signals: Close, Room and an analogue-treated Vintage signal.

Delicately recorded in Lyndhurst Hall at AIR Studios, Intimate Brass is built for restraint, not power. A custom quartet of tuba, euphonium, tenor trombone, and flugelhorn feathers in and out of warm, subtle articulations, capturing gentle swells and textures that make the listener lean in. Three signals (Close, Mix, Vintage) let you dial in the perfect tone. Pair with Originals Intimate Woodwinds and Intimate Strings for a complete intimate orchestral section.

Intimate Woodwinds is a curated ensemble of bassoon, bass clarinet, clarinet, alto flute and flute, also captured at Lyndhurst Hall, AIR Studios. From gentle pastoral underscore to fragile, barely-there atmospheres, these gentle whispers are perfect for scoring emotive moments on screen. Recorded in the same hall as Intimate Brass and Intimate Strings, the three libraries are built to sit together.

The titanium euphone is a contemporary instrument made up of chromatically tuned glass rods, played by rubbing them with wet fingertips. The result is otherworldly. Crystal Keys captures both the raw acoustic instrument and a series of Warps — processed sounds that reshape it from angelic shimmer to horror-film dread — across nine presets and six bespoke signals. Previously available only with Kontakt Full as Titanium Euphone, Crystal Keys now runs natively in the Instrument plugin. Instant character for horror, sci-fi, ambient and screen work. 

Alongside the four new titles, 17 existing Originals libraries have been relaunched on Splice Instrument. Every library now features full mic signals, complete preset lists and Spitfire’s redesigned interface, with refreshed artwork and a mixer for blending close, room, and vintage mic signals. The upgrade arrives at no extra cost for existing owners and deepens the Instrument catalogue of pro-grade virtual instruments. 

The new Originals libraries are supported on PCs running Windows 11 and above, and Macs running macOS 11 or later. VST3, AU and AAX plug-in versions are available. 

All four libraries are available now, priced at $29£29 including VAT / €29 each. The entire range of 21 Originals products is also available as part of the Splice Instrument subscription, which costs $12.99 / month.
