[faebbes]

Hello,

maby its my ears. But for me Bold and Agile sound the same when i use 2nd Violins or Violas.

Can anybody hear a diffrence like Bold and Agile with 1st Violins?

Hello, faebbes,

Thank you for the feedback. I just loaded the BBO Zodiac samples here, and I can clearly hear the same difference "Bold" vs "Agile" for the 2nd Violins & Violas, too. Kindly note that these articulations do not change the notes' timbre - but the transition-behaviour in between for faster passages. You could describe Agile being a bit more "tight" while the Bold articulation results in a more "sluggish" feeling when performing fast passages.

Best regards,
Andreas
