Auddict Master Solo Strings - Solo Viola

The Master Solo Strings Begins With The Most Detailed, Carefully Sampled And Realistic Solo Viola Virtual Instrument.

When approaching the master solo strings, our initial thoughts were to begin with the solo violin, as out of the four main bowed string instruments, it is by far the most prominently used soloist instrument. With further consideration, we decided it might be perfect to focus and actually begin with a meticulously sampled solo Viola. There are already many sampled violins, and we have contributed some ourselves, so lets open with the viola!

Considering adding a violin solo to your score? The violin has a beautiful sound - no doubt about it - but consider giving an extra special colour to your music by adding a viola solo; a warmer/lusher and deeper sound, which listeners will be less accustomed to, and pleasantly surprised by.

The instrument is carefully sampled, with multiple legato modes at different dynamic layers, cross-fadeable with MIDI CC1 (mod wheel).

Full list of articulations:

1. Polyphonic no vibrato
2. Polyphonic vibrato
3. Legato no vibrato
4. Legato vibrato
5. Portamento vibrato
6. Portamento no vibrato
7. Trills (semitone, tone, minor 3, major 3)
8. Harmonics
9. Marcato
10. Tremolo (fast unmeasured)
11. Major Chords
12. Minor Chords
13. Staccato
14. Pizzicato

Four Legato Modes (two dynamics each)

As you can see, there are four legato modes, normal legato with and without vibrato, and portamento with and without vibrato.

Controls on the GUI allow you to also control the legato interval volume, as well as legato interval length, and portamento length, allowing for fast snappy note changes, more expressive drawn out intervals, or short/long slides between notes.
