Product Overview

Solos of the Sea – Solo Violin B features a single violin voice that captures a dynamic, expressive sound with a focus on heavily slurred legato phrases. This library is particularly suited for emotive scoring, where the nuances of pitch and timbre can enhance the narrative depth.

Details

The instrument is recorded with a single dynamic layer, primarily in the fortissimo range, and includes slurred pitch-memory legato that maintains a consistent timbre across transitions. Dramatic portamento legatos can be triggered by playing at higher velocities, specifically on intervals from a perfect fourth to an octave. Additionally, same-note bow-change repetitions are available, activated by holding the sustain pedal while repeating notes.

All samples are captured at a moderately close distance in a hall, providing an intimate sound. The library employs “active-bow” sustains, which evolve in timbre while maintaining dynamic consistency. A notable feature is the 140 ms delay in response, which is optimized for musicality, allowing for precise quantization when adjusting MIDI tracks. This thoughtful design makes the library particularly effective for creating fluid, expressive violin lines in various scoring contexts.
