Description :
SWAM Solo Strings Bundle was developed by Audio Modeling using SWAM (Synchronous Waves Acoustic Modeling) technology:
a combination of innovative performance technologies and physical and behavioral modeling concepts.
It doesn't include any samples and is extremely lightweight.
Characteristics
- Powerful MIDI Mapping, supporting CC, Hi-Res CC, After-Touch NRPN and remapping curves, allows for more precise tuning and responsiveness of any controller.
- Realistic legato.
- New pizzicato model.
- General improvement in the sound and behavior of the bowed string.
- Tone correction function. You can select up to two harmonics to adjust (emphasize or reduce).
- Standalone version, VST3 plugin format provided and compatible with Native Instruments NKS.
- Adjust bow sensitivity in real time (in bow mode). This makes it possible to transform the bow: from a short bow with soft strokes to a full-length bow with strong strokes.
