Chris Hein - Solo Viola EXtended is a bundle of three fantastically sounding Solo Viola Instruments, all with a unique sound and played by professional studio musicians. All instruments were recorded with great care and detail. Their virtual counterparts had been further optimized for playability and performance (EX instruments), thus saving your computer resources and still granting you access to all required articulations for authentic performances.

The following instruments are included:

• VLA1 Solo Viola
• VLA2 Canadian Viola as EX-instrument
• VLA3 French Viola as EX-instrument

Chris Hein - Solo Viola EXtended delivers outstanding, detailed and highly expressive results as a solo instrument or as part of an ensemble – in all relevant genres ranging from classical music and film scores to gypsy-jazz, folk and pop ballads.

And there is even more: Chris Hein - Solo Viola EXtended provides sound-designers, composers of film- and game soundtracks and experimental musicians with special effect-sounds and uncommon articulations with exceptional dynamics, such as flautando, flageolets and ponticello. Therefore, the pitch range of the virtual instrument was expanded in comparison to the original violin. The special effect sounds are further supported by the internal tenfold DSP-effects-rack. Feel free to create complex sound clusters, dense atmospheres and surreal sonic worlds out of a single violin for incredible moments of suspense.
