Violin Kontakt

The 8Dio SQS (Studio Quartet Series) Solo Violin marks a new leap in sampling for us. We recorded one of the greatest solo violinists alive today, a principal violinist of the BBC and other orchestras, ultra-deep-sampled with 88 articulations ranging from true polyphonic legato to a wealth of short-note options, dozens of velocity-based arcs, twelve different Ostinatos, and performance-based articulations. Recorded in a controlled studio environment at Scotland’s Premiere Recording Studio, Gorbals Sound, the Violin was captured in incredible detail and without compromise utilizing two dual-microphone techniques. This combined method allows you to freely blend between a direct signal and a more spacious and ambient position, enabling you to control the positioning and distance of the Violin accurately.

Pathfinder Violin is a rhythmic legato library, ideal for creating expressive phrases and ostinatos. Feed it a chord, and it will play phrases based upon the notes of the chord. These phrases are determined by a graphic notation consisting of “paths”.

Inspired by virtuoso violinists of the past, Signor Paganini is the ultimate Solo Violin spiccato/staccato library. Designed by an Emmy Award-Winning team, Signor Paganini defines a new level of realism in virtual solo string instruments.

Contemporary Soloists: Violin is the second instalment in our new range of instruments for Kontakt. Featuring unique and contemporary orchestral violin textures performed by virtuoso violinist and composer, Max Baillie, It is full of soul, emotion and raw character.

Vertigo Violin is a new addition to our symphonic range. It is an exciting mixture of different playing techniques of the violin, which have been assembled into our existing Vertigo Engine. The sound of Vertigo Violin is both smooth and rough and opens up the possibility to create very unique and soft string instrument tunings as well as more extreme and strange sounding soundscapes. And all this is - as always - very organic and lively. It fits so well to all types of film music.

Welcome to violin heaven!!! We set out to create a virtual violin with malleable, intuitive controls, and an authentic, LIVING sound. From the beginning we wanted control over vibrato and dynamics, so we presented Dovid with an insane, almost athletic challenge: to record more than 3500 samples with musical purpose and a beautiful tone, and all WITHOUT VIBRATO! This gives you your own layer of expressivity… a variety of musical parameters at your fingertips so that you can craft and phrase authentic performances.

Chris Hein – Solo Violin outshines all previous violin libraries. Never before, a sample library of this extent has been dedicated towards a single string instrument: Recorded with greatest care and endless details, precisely edited and merged into a practical and musical instrument for NI's Kontakt Player offering an elaborated custom-tailored user-interface with comprehensive scripting. Chris Hein – Solo Violin features high-grade sound quality and incredible realistic articulations. This library offers everything you have been missing with previous virtual string instruments.

The most Living, Breathing Solo Violin Virtual Instrument…Virtuoso Violin Sample Library for Kontakt 4 and Above (Retail Version Only, not Free Kontakt Player). With an instrument as diverse, capable, and exposed as the violin, there is no cutting corners, so we strived to capture as much of the possible sounds a violin can make as possible, resulting in the huge list of articulations you can see below, as well as four sampled legato styles, also shown below. We even specially sampled slurred and bowed legato so you can correctly and realistically phrase passages, and a specially sampled "fast legato" set of intervals, which will allow you to play virtuosic runs and scale passages.
