In this virtual environment, all SWAM String Sections are brought to life using advanced Audio Modeling technologies such as Room Simulator and Spazializer. These cutting-edge tools meticulously replicate the acoustic reflections within the room, faithfully following its geometry and absorption characteristics.
Instrumentation and Arrangement:
Violins x6 (Mezzo Legato Ostinato and then a Largo Theme)
Violins x5 (Staccato Ostinato)
Violins x5 (Harmony on the final theme)
Violas x5 (Mezzo Legato ostinato, Theme, and then Harmonization)
Violas x4 (Staccato Ostinato)
Cellos x4 (Staccato bass and then harmonization)
Double Basses x4 (bass on the final theme to reinforce the electric bass)."

Which percussion libraries are being used in this?
Amazing
Please please please bring room/positioning to the solo strings I want to build big sections of solos !
I second the question for room positioning for the solo instruments with presets for string arrangements, orchestras, big bands, jazz ensembles and other situations like Divisimate offers it, if possible with templates for different DAWs.
Stay tuned! :)
Rondò veneziano v2.0? 😜
I have all of your solo instruments, but I'm not sure if I should buy this string section. The glide (portamento) honestly don't sound realistic to me, but I think that's because your portamento layers all have the same glide time. In a real orchestra the portamentos work a little differently. (Humans are not 100% at the same time. there is a little delay and different strenght) Maybe you can take this into account in future updates and program a "humanize function" that makes glides/portamento appear more realistic. Don't get me wrong here. I love your products and am a big fan. But doubling the strings is like doubling vocals. Digitally doubled does not sound the same as realistically doubled. :) All in all, the strings sounding nice!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feedback with us. We appreciate your support and your perspective as a valued user of our solo instruments.
It's great to hear that you're enjoying the overall sound of our string section. We completely understand your concerns regarding the portamento (glide) and the desire for a more human-like touch to it. We would like to clarify that the portamento and glide settings in our instruments are designed to be adjustable in real time, allowing you to control the speed and intensity of these transitions according to your own playing style and personal taste. We'd like also to highlight that our instruments offer a feature called 'Player Accuracy,' which allows for fine-tuning a kind of randomness on some performance parameters.
Our approach to creating these instruments goes far beyond simple layering or doubling. We have invested extensive time and effort into analyzing and crafting each instrument meticulously, aiming to capture the essence and character of their real-world counterparts. This process involves much more than just stacking sounds together.
That being said, we truly value your input and understand that there's always room for improvement. Your feedback and suggestions are vital to our ongoing efforts to enhance our products. While we cannot promise specific features or updates, please know that your feedback will be taken into consideration as we explore ways to further improve the realism and flexibility of our instruments.
I’m noticing the similar things. It really is a fun instrument to play and I imagine you will continue to update it. Maybe you can provide some pointers for when I set up three violin sections with six players each in divisi… it sounds a little too much like the same section of six stacked three times. This is unlike your solo violin instrument which gives me several timbres to choose from and this ends up sounding like three separate violins playing together. Is there a way for me to improve this other than the accuracy control? I don’t hear much variation when moving that around. It would be great to have 3, 6 player violin sections each with their distinct timbre in future updates- and maybe even more dramatic effect when moving the accuracy slider. I do realize some of this will be improved if I play each divisi section separately with various timing differences. Perhaps the accuracy control could also have a more dramatic affect on the timing of each instrument in the section for how it interprets portamento? This way they would not all be using what currently sounds like a fairly uniform glide time. I thinks fair to say I need much more time with this instrument before saying anymore though- just some first impressions. Your instruments as so good and so close to perfect it feels like this product is only a few minor adjustments away from being the only string library anyone should ever want to use. This is the future.
What genre is this? where can I find the full piece, or Ostinato largo 2023, is there an album recorded by Stefano? or where can I listen to more compositions of him?
Richiama vagamente Rondò Veneziano! ;-)
Stefano, where can we hear the whole version? This is such an action-packed piece!
That's what I was thinking too, a spiritual successor! Takes me to that wonderful age of Hooked on Classics, "La Serenissima" and such. Baroque with dramatic drums.
Fantastic ❤
