Why are you referring to SWAM? Our incoming major upgrade to Kontakt based Brass will yield multitimbral features, which SWAM based instruments are far from providing. As repeatedly said, the two lines of Samplemodeling instruments are complementary…

mail, please. Giorgio

Hi Jochen, please provide us with a midi file, and we'll try to help. Best regards, Giorgio

A votre service, Sylvain. Glad it helped. Giorgio

Phil999 and others, from an analytical standpoint, vibrato is a modulation of pitch, dynamics, timbre, noise, with some additional components like periodic flutter, more or less evident, depending on the instrument. Dynamics oscillations are f…

Hi Del, the expression pedal must be of the linear type. Some pedals offer a switch, rather than a soldering option. Anyway, what needs to be checked is whether one gets a linear response over the 0 - 127 range. This is what is really ne…

sgenevay, what you could try is the following suggestion, that you can find in the Trumpet manual. It was originally addressed to Sonar users, but it might apply to your case as well: "Tip: Sonar users might experience hanging notes upon st…

Hi twangsta, Samplemodeling return policy is straightforward. We offer a refund in case the instruments are faulty. Which never happened so far. Please note that it's up to the customer to verify that his setup complies with the system r…

I agree. This should only be shown in case of a disputation about dates and prices. My apologies.

Please note: my reply "For the sake of thruth" has been moved to the "The maths", a more pertinent thread.

Dagmarpiano, the best approach to ensembles remains the one suggested by Plougot. For the lazy guys, we are working on an upgrade of the Trumpet and the Trombone which will include the "ensemble maker" of the French Horns, along with many…

Santa Claus is a tad late this year. But he promised to enter our chimneys with a lot of fantastic new instruments. Hopefully not next summer ;-) Giorgio

You won't be disappointed :-) Giorgio

Sylvain, As explained in the Trombone manual, switching to Windcontroller mode gives control of portamento time to CC#5 instead of velocity. This can be easily checked by clicking on "portamento time time" in the drop-down menu. It re…

Bravo! Giorgio

Solo strings was a project of ours that we were carrying out years ago. A very promising viola prototype had been developed. However, we decided to complete the Brass series first. Now, the SWAM engine seems very suitable for solo strings. W…

Molto Bravo! Giorgio

Hi Plougot, the "latch" mode was introduced upon request of several customers, complaining that real time playing was incompatible with the standard KS mode. As you point up, even this solution has limitations, though. A selectable mode a…

Dormusic, We must recall that our virtual instruments are, after all, sample-based. This means that the timbral properties are, to some extent, conditioned by the recorded material. And all samples are not created equal. One would proba…

Dormusic, Before replying to your last post, we need to clarify the following. You wrote: "The high notes of the horn (~Highest D through G) at high dynamics very distictly lack an airy "buzz", which isn't the existing 'buzz' parameter. Cu…

Dick, please check the following: 1) is the instrument working in KB or WC mode 2) which controller is mapped to expression 3) which CC is shown in your sequence If you are getting this message, it's simply because the prope…

Stay tuned. It will take some time, though. Especially making the whole orchestra ;-) We're lazy guys, you know :-) Giorgio & Peter

Kensuguro, using a separate instance of Kontakt for each instrument, as suggested by Valouz, usually markedly reduces the CPU load, particularly with multicore units. This is a must, moreover, for any sax running on Kontakt, as clearly exp…

Hi Daryl, there is indeed a bug. When the extent of overlap between legato notes is below a certain threshold, in BC mode, the split portamento leads to incorrect destination notes. When using a sequence one can temporarily solve the …
-
Daryl, I made several tests, but I could not reproduce the bug that you described. You mention Bb3 -> KS C1 -> Bb4. Actually, C1 is not a KS. If you mean the harmonic-based split portamento, the KS is C0 for the French Horn and C-1…

Hi guys, as soon as we recover from the French Horn and Tuba development, we might be able to satisfy your kind requests. ;-) Giorgio & Peter
-
Hi Daryl, this has not been reported before by our beta testers. Does this problem occur also with the "main" instruments, or only with those labelled as "for unison ensemble"? Are you using the instruments in the BC mode (the BC butt…
-
Hi Daryl, we provide 4 main French Horns, each one with a slightly different timbre, ER IR, and overall response to the MIDI flow. The early reflections are built in such a way to minimize phasing. Each instrument has a different pitch and dy…

It´s a perfect example showing that any music style can be tackled in a very convincing manner! Thank you very much, Rick, for sharing your work with us. Giorgio & Peter
