Daniel, if you haven't figured out the Bow Change, (if I understand the intention correctly) hold the note and hit the keyswitch while the note is playing. That tells the engine to do the bow change of the sustain. Exactly what you wanted earlier.
More realism. @@WillyJunior
Monumentally BEAUTIFUL library and fabulous presentation/review and composition!! Thank you!!
Yay... he's out of retirement.
Thanks for doing this, I’m struggling again with string writing and this really helps
I know a bunch of talented composers already do this, but would love to see you put out a course for composing. I love your teaching style and the way you work in these 'avin a look at videos, as well as type of music you seem to gravitate towards. I feel I could follow along better (and be more entertained) that some other admittedly excellent courses.
holy jesus, what a masterpiece. i can see the film in my mind's eye.
Hi Daniel ,
Thank you so much for making this walkthrough video showing, and explaining how you used Pacific Strings in this wonderful sounding track. 😎👍🏻
All The Best,
Muziksculp
Your endorsement of this library was good enough for me. Picked it up yesterday during the BF sale.
Pacific actually got recorded re-bow samples @ Daniel :) Triggered via holding down CC64, same approach as CSS
You beat me to it.
I know, we figure it out at the end, that's why its worth watching through before correcting me, I don't operate in a very linear way most days haha 😂 1:46:00
@@DJLA Sorry, didnt watch the whole thing at once, just thought at this particular moment that the info might be valuable to share! Your modus operandi is in fact nearly identical to mine 😂even the small details like keeping your tracks labeled strings 1,2 etc. and tidying up the mess at a later point when my ADD monkey brain thinks that its time to get some order into the chaos
Beautiful Piece thank you !!
wow, I was going to request just that! streaming on pacific strings!!❤
Let’s gooo. I was hoping this would come out.
I think this could very well be the best string ensemble library ever released to date. It sounds like a film right out of the box.
This is a really good review, helps us get why things are done a certain way. I actually like Performance Samples for vocals too, even though its tricky to mix.
Sounds epic buddy, 🔥🎷🎺🎻🎹
wow even the full ensemble ones sound great
Oh my lord that was an amazing track
Lost my sh*t at “I physically look like a kitchen fitter” 😂 The track sounds amazing dude. Seriously awesome stuff!
Hi Dany,nice this demo.
love u daniel , thanks for the video
That harp just tickled my brain. Also, I wish there were smaller sections and minimalist violins similar to Afflatus.
Don't worry, those are coming soon in Vista 2!
Sounds incredible. Key change 🙌 also I like the way your using the key editor in Cubase with the chord track at the top
Like the hair!
Maybe I'm the only one but I actually always reed the manual as I fiddle with the software - that way I get to know the software faster and don't miss any features ...
Thanks for the review Daniel. What Brass are you using in this piece?
Also wondering
Took 3 days for UA-cam to recommend this to me, what a tragedy
Good morning Daniel,
I congratulate you because I often watch your demonstration videos.
I also use Pacific Strings and I wanted to ask you if you also have latency between the moment we play and the moment the sound arrives?
That track is bonkers
I haven't gone thru the whole video yet, but is Daniel doing any bus processing on these?
The problem is not the slur, but the absence of normal legato.(?) In normal libraries I got it AND can easily add a slur, when needed (BBC, CSS, etc).
Anyway: Your music is incredible beautiful and emotional and powerful !!!!!
Jasper is gonna be doing an update to this to fix/tame the legatos.
@@5ammy13 thats good news
What the BEST STRINGS sound LIBRARIES? Pacific, Berlín, SPITFIRE?
What?? When was this stream? I didn't get a notification. Dammit!
Man keeps looking better 😢😢😢
I think the level of portamento vs slur transition is dependent on how hard you hit the key. Also apparently there is a rebow, you need to press the sustain pedal and rehit the note.
Small correction: It's actually just CC1. Velocity makes no difference. There have been a few other videos out there, posts at VI-Control, and comments in various Discord servers explaining the behavior, as well as people discovering/documenting at which CC1 values the slur level happens to change. I think people have said that staying below 80 keeps it to a minimum.
sorry if this was mentioned in the video and i missed it, but i wanted to ask, does this library do good in fast passages? specifically for runs and things like that
It's not designed to do runs, it can do some faster stuff such as repeated tremolos layered with legatos (as shown in this video) but no runs. For runs I'd get a dedicated library as pre-recorded runs always sound better. Cheers!
Hi Twitch!
hi this library or spitfire symphony orchestra 2024 ?
I have Vista so of course the price is a no brainer. Whether I make the cost back in profits is no matter. I must have the good stuff and this certainly is the good stuff. Otherwise, why write? Thanks DJ.
I wanna learn from u
The always-on portamento at CC1 80+ quickly becomes tiring and repetitive to the ear. I removed Pacific from my template because of that.

Great video as usual!! But do we really need another strings library? I'm surprised companies are still justifying releasing libraries like this. I think the VST world has strings fully covered by now. There are SO many other VSTs that could be created that would be much more useful. Better vocals are needed for sure, more ethnic vocals from real singers from that culture, not just another white girl trying to sing a certain "ethnic style". And how about a shamanic instrument pack. And if a company is bent on Strings, why don't they include lots of phases on each instrument? Things like The Orchestra are unique additions and deserve being purchased, but yeah for a normal strings VST, I see no reason to continue to buy these types of packs..
i think there is too much. Only increases the problem. We just need a few. The rest is a lot of practice
It sounds smooth and lush but still lack of dynamic and realism the ostinato is pretty horrible too.
Dude, you really need to stay away from D
13:38 That's what she said HAHAHAHA .Love ya man
