Product Overview

STRADIVARI VIOLIN captures the ‘Vesuvius’ instrument in a modern solo‑string engine. It focuses on smooth dynamic transitions, real vibrato behavior and practical control over mic image so the violin sits naturally in orchestral and hybrid scores.

Details

Articulations cover Long, Short, Expressive, Dynamic and Special categories with up to three legato types for natural connections between notes. A phase‑aligned crossfade system maintains timbre when moving through dynamics. Real vibrato performances are integrated into key articulations and can be shaped in real time with modelled speed and depth controls. The Virtuoso articulation blends techniques automatically from your performance data.

A multi‑mic instrument exposes curated Close, Mid and Far balances drawn from a 32‑microphone setup at the Auditorium Giovanni Arvedi; a separate stereo‑mix NKI trades flexibility for speed in larger templates. Fingerboard position options (Low/High/Smart) allow mellow or bright color choices on sustained articulations, mirroring real‑world string placement.
