-The Viola-
by Sample Modeling is out!
---------------------------------------------
I've been waiting a long time for the "Sample Modeling Strings".
The first instrument released - The Viola -
sounds better, has faster response, true legato, glissando and slur. Bow speed, Micro-tuning and a lot more controls I than expected.
Only 4mb hard drive space required. Not gigabytes. 4 Megabytes.

- below statement from the Sample Modeling website -

Virtually all the elements contributing to the sound of the real instrument have been introduced in this virtual viola.
Bow speed, pressure, direction and distance from the bridge are under player's control.
One can also control the resonance of the played string, that of the open strings, the amount of rosin and bow noise, the
sharpness of the attack, the bow lift (on the string vs. off the string) on both attack and release, the preferred
finger position, and many other parameters. Each parameter can be assigned to any MIDI CC, allowing real time control.

Pretty impressive! Any idea when other instruments will become available? A single solo viola is pretty limited...

"The Viola" is no doubt an homogenous addition as " Principal Viola " in any virtual orchestra.

Bill, I have Embertone Cello, if you were asking me. I don't have the viola. I've never really been able to master the Embertone Cello, simply because VSL is second nature to me and I don't have the patience for the keyswitches and what not.
