![]() ![]() The brass instruments sounded very authentic to me yet they required the most set up. Yet, as with all new technologies, I can imagine development is an ongoing process and these articulations will become available in the future. It’s all how adept you are at playing your MPE controller. But for main articulations there is so much here in guise of legato, staccato, pizzicato, col legno, glissando, bends, trills and grace notes. I agree to an extent, yet if you need Bartok Pizzicato then you may need to look elsewhere. Not only does this represent great value for money, but it should eliminate any need for other solo instrument libraries. the vibrato control on the MPE controller is so natural. Not having the ability to control vibrato of an instrument is one of the key factors I look for when purchasing a new library. I love the expressive feel and they fit effortlessly into productions. The strings are instantly playable out of the box. You are however limited by the capabilities of your own playing, yet it’s a great excuse to improve your playing ability. With the SWAM instruments, it takes only one performance. With other solo instrument packages, you can create extremely realistic melodies and performances, but in my experience the programming can take hours to get right. You can tweak this in the midi programming later yet you should not need to. While some articulations are not present currently, the high level of expressiveness is really easy to achieve in real time. The only real limitation for me is the amount or articulations and I stressed in the video that with different controllers you can create more incredible articulations. The technology is still new and for such a high level of instrument having already been achieved, I am excited to see how Audio Modelling take these instruments further. ![]() ![]() I purposely have not used the term “weaknesses” as I don’t feel that there is anything weak about the bundle. Having played with the instruments for some time now the strengths certainly outweigh the limitations. SWAM All in Bundle by Audio Modeling normally sells for $2150.00.Īt the time of posting, the SWAM All In Bundle $1400 was available for $1400.00 from ILIO Review: SWAM All in Bundle by Audio Modeling Jump to the Demos of SWAM All in Bundle by Audio Modeling Jump to the Videos of SWAM All in Bundle by Audio Modeling With groundbreaking technology and demos with a real human feel, I couldn’t wait to have a deep dive into this collection. The developer’s emulation software uses physical, acoustical, and behavioral modeling to create expressive playable instruments primed for Midi Polyphonic Expression (MPE). The SWAM all in bundle comprises of 32 solo instruments including strings, brass and woodwinds. ![]()
