Strike Strings works perfectly for cinematic scoring, trailer music, electronic music, hybrid orchestral, game soundtracks, and more!

Carefully created by a composer for composers.

I’m Filipe Leitão, an award-winning composer, music producer, and sound designer. I’ve worked on films and concert music, with my works recognized at international festivals like Cannes Short Film Corner, Toronto Film Week, and WorldFest Houston. I hold a Doctor of Musical Arts (The University of Alabama) and an MFA in Music Production and Sound Design for Visual Media (Academy of Art University), and have developed the Media Scoring program at Virginia Commonwealth University, where I teach film scoring and music production.

 

As a composer, I’m always looking for ways to speed up my workflow without sacrificing quality. That’s why I created Strike Strings—a sample library designed to deliver epic string sounds with a variety of presets and styles, making it easy to create powerful scores quickly. Whether you’re an experienced composer or just starting out, Strike Strings offers an accessible and efficient way to achieve cinematic impact without spending hours programming and arranging strings.
