Can we please get single demo lines of the strings, single notes to have a listen too.


I can understand that the enthusiasm is really big about the demo of Chris, but it sounds too rich to be able to really hear what the sound like...

Demos please, Herb...

Like this? Still has verb and a few of my secret mixing tricks... But a completely dry demo makes little sense. These are suppose to be wet with passion! [:)]

(ps. Last note sounds out of place without the other strings)

christian, this ain't performance legatos, are they? i do miss the legato transitions between the single notes

Well there may have been a few gaps. I have closed the obvious ones.. but yes it is legato.. and sounds it to me atleast. [:)]

Try listen again to the new upload.

nice. i'm actually playing the same line with the VI OS1 to hear the difference.
the apassionata sound seems a bit softer. it's exactly the thing we tried to achive using filters with the existing orchestral strings in the past.

Herb,

Regarding alternations.....How many on Perf-Trills? I think I'm counting 2 for each VEL Layer.....


Also I think it is 2 on Stacc etc...

thanx,

SvK

I am missing the "shiver of passionate vibrato"!!!

Of course there must be other articulations as well, cause the string in Chris' demo do not differ very much from the OS1 string sound.
They sound pretty the same as EWQLSO Strings....

Are there samples with nice vibrato, as we all suggested?

OK, my turn. One version is Appassionata Violins, one is DG Passion Special. [URL=http://darylgriffith.com/production/vsl/Which_is_which.mp3]Which is which?[/URL]

DG

There is a heavy vibrato legato and sustain. I just used the regular one. And to my ears it sounds way better than EWQLSO strings... It also differs from OS1, both in sound and programming. Its clear that VSL have gotten even better at what they do!

What is DG special? My guess is also that the second is passionata

Sorry - nothing to listen to. Is it an mp3?
Please psot an mp3...

Thanks

Matt

Thanks for the Demos, guys. Keep 'em coming!!

Mahlon

Second...

I must say (as far as I heard demos now) where are all the things we voted for? Cannot hear a big difference to the violins before...

Herb, this cannot not be all. Please post some demolines of yours...
THanks

Matt

As Christian said there is a heavy vibrato patch, but only an idiot would use this for a legato line. It should be used for certain key notes within a phrase.

DG

again - what's a DG special?! *curious*

Well - I have gotten what I voted for and far more. Herb said that recording Legato would be impossible due to the time that was for it. Now we have 3+ types of legato, staccato, sustains, dynamics and trills... All of it for free, and all of it better than any other string samples I ahve heard. So it might not be exactly what you wanted, but how can it be exactly what we all want? I'm really liking this..

Chill [;)]

The lines that were posted are quick and dirty [;)]

To programm even a motif with 4 legato (1st note progVIB, 2nd Strong VIB, 3dNote Sfz, 4the note Decresc....etc...not to mention swelling velocity with modwheel....etc etc etc) notes properely...takes a hell of a long time.......

And the posted Demos do not reflect that type of programming.....

It's all in here ...believe me.

Well it depends what he wants. [:)]

Anyway, I would love to hear a demo from you when you get one done [H]

Btw, I changed the midi for better legato in my orginal excert as well. Also added the slow tuning a few places.

Christian,


youre stuff rox.......what I meant was that even you stated that you "threw them in rather quickly" so everone could hear the samples at least....

see edit in above post.
