You can see some older discussion about very long notes at this other thread (link below). All of the brass behave similarly for very long notes (> 10 seconds). If it cuts off before 10 seconds without seeing note off or CC2/CC11 drop to zero, it…

Looking forward to this. If it's on par with your brass libraries in terms of the playability and realism balance, then it will be very exciting, indeed. Best wishes for a successful release, Giorgio and Peter.

Looks intriguing. Best wishes on the release, Peter and Giorgio.

On the first listen I was speechless and in awe. On the second listen I was still in awe but starting to sputter incomplete nonsense like "how the...", "woah...", "what, you gotta be...". On the third listen I was back to being speechless but this …

A word of caution if you are starting with a MIDI file that wasn't authored to control the Sample Modeling trombone: all the SM brass instruments require that you control the dynamics with some dynamic controller (typically mod wheel, breath control…

Thank you for listening and for the kind comments, Jon, Giorgio and Peter.

Thanks, Michael. Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm on 5.7.1 (R35). What I see is this when in breath control mode: 1) Press key down D3, but CC2=0.... no note sounds, as expected. 2) While D3 is held, increase CC2, note starts, as expected. 3) While D3 is held and CC2 constant and non-z…

I can also confirm that Horns and Trombones behave this way as well when in BC mode, so it's not specific to Trumpet.
-
Hi, Michael. I use wind controller and can confirm this doesn't happen there, likely because it sends unique key up/down on each note of the trill. I did try on BC mode though and can reproduce what you describe. It only seems to happen after a tril…

From the Tuba version 3 documentation PDF, page 34, I see... The same keyswitch assignment applies to the Tuba as well, only one octave lower. I don't have personal experience with the keyswitches though, as I just play via EWI, so I can…

Here's what I was going to add a couple days back to demonstrate the differences I mentioned, but attachments weren't working previously. The attachment shows a simple horn line I put together that hopefully shows the difference. All MIDI input…

Fun indeed. Thanks for sharing, Perry.

Thanks for the link. This looks like a helpful site, indeed.

The manual for Trumpets talks about the Unison Ensemble usage on page 33 in most recent PDF. You can either load all three trumpets in one Kontakt instance using the Multi directly, or if your ProTools tracks are each opening a separate Kontakt inst…

Not sure what to make of that animation exactly, but thanks for sharing the musical piece.

Can you explain a bit more about which instruments you are loading and how you are controlling them? For instance, do you only mean musically "in unison" where the instruments happen to be playing the same pitches or more of a "MIDI unison" which is…

Nice! Thanks for sharing the video, Alejandro.
-
Great! Thanks for sharing this.
-
Looks like some good fun there. Thanks for sharing.

The settings on EWI-USB are all via software control from custom app from Akai. Not sure about the other EWI models though.
-
Yep, we recorded it in one take (I still have to learn how to patch portions together). We put an iPhone+RodeXY mic right by the piano (so less of the violin would bleed into that track). At the same time we also recorded SWAM-Violin/GarageBand, dir…

Thanks for sharing these, Dan. Did you record that whole Oblivion piece live along with the piano player? If so, quite impressive recording. How did it feel to control with the Yamaha controller? I use the Akai EWI-USB and to my ear you are ac…

Grinning indeed. Thanks for sharing.

You can do the remapping from your existing C1/C2 with the Trumpet's UI. Within the Trumpet UI, navigate to the "Controllers 1" page. You should see a knob labelled Dynamics/CC11. Right click on the knob and select "Learn MIDI CC automation". Then j…

I missed the remapping comment before. I agree with Michael that that would be a very strange usage and would likely give you a very bad impression of the Trumpet's capability, especially if it is a typical on/off sustain pedal. I tried mapping my o…

This is the behavior you'd see if the Trumpet receives note on events but not the note off event. Since the Trumpet uses a held note as the basis for doing trills, that part is expected. The question then is why is it not receiving note off events. …
-
Really well done, Perry! You've got a lovely nuanced control of the instruments. I was wondering if you could comment on how you achieved the lightweight turn on the trumpet at 0:56? I've not been able to reproduce it with my lesser EWI-USB skills a…

Wow. Stunning piece. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing. -John.
