  • Traditional keyswitching for manual articulation changes.
  • Ingeniously scripted performance patches for real-time interpretation of your playing style.
• Dynamic Expression: Capable of everything from delicate trills to rapid arpeggios, providing four true legato types and seamless transitions.
• ‘Baked’ Ensemble Mode: Sketch ideas effortlessly with a combined quartet patch before fine-tuning each instrument individually.

🎤 Masterful Sound Control

Recorded at Wigmore Hall, the library offers six microphone positions and two expertly crafted mixes:
🎙️ Close, Decca Tree, Ambients, and Outriggers for ultimate versatility.
🎛️ Fine-tune your sound with vibrato control and explore rich articulations — from tight spiccatos to luscious longs.
