  • Using Appassionata's "perf-leg-tune"...

    Is the following way a good way to use the Appassionata's "perf-leg-tune"?

    ...with the help of CELL XF...:
    upper Cell - a perf-leg
    lower Cell - the perf-leg-tune...
    ...so, thanks to the XFade we can choose among the two...

    What do you think? Someone else have a better (or more valid) idea...?

    Thx.

  • Is this a question about Appasionata Violins, or has more information been posted about Appasionata Strings? Can you explain what this feature does?

    (I'm very excited about A.S. if you couldn't tell already.)

  • Have you tried out the Appasionata Violins Rino [:)]? They are very nice. The perf-leg-tune starts out of tune but then goes in tune so it works fine on it's own. If you want to get "in tune" faster than you can of course do as you suggested but it does go in tune rather quickly as it is. You should only use this "patch" once in awhile in my opinion since Violinist that are good with their instrument don't go out of tune "too" often [H].

  • Thanks Austin for your suggestion... yes! I like the AV...also if, sometime, the normal "perf leg" is not (oh well! It seems to me!) so "well legato" as the 14VI are... (I've got a little bit of "strange attack" using it... [*-)]).

    Synthetic, I was writing about the Appassionata Violins... I don't know anything else about the Strings version... sorry...
    (the "perf leg tune" gives to you the opportunity to shot here and there some "out of tuned starting" violins note... to add a bit of more reality... but... without exaggerate!)

  • Cool, so it simulates the LSO after they come back from lunch at the pub. [:)] That sounds like a useful layer.

    I'm afraid that the LSO's behaviour has been exemplary for the last 20 years. I'm surprised that you remember all that cr*p from the 70s. [[:|]]

  • I've never worked with them, just read stories. Always schedule the most challenging cues for the morning, they say. Then again, in the 70's they recorded Star Wars, Superman and many other moving scores. That was supposed to be a complement – I doubt I'm the only one who wants his sequence to sound like Star Wars on vinyl. [:)]

    I think that's just general good advice when recording anywhere in London near a pub! Especially a Abbey where they have one in the canteen! Though the one at Watford is just a short skip across the road, too. [[;)]]
