A course of how to get the most out of your virtual orchestral libraries

What you'll learn

The fundamental principles to be aware of when programming strings

The different options and what they solve in terms of libraries and types of libraries

how to make the best of strings libraries that don't have all the ideal elements such as Logic stock strings

access to a free download of my own strings blocks with I created as a free way to get strings chords sounding real from my own layering of real strings

how to record a string player solo or layered and mix it within your project.

Requirements

Basic DAW Knowledge. This course is based on Logic Pro running Kontakt but the principles are universal.

No programming experience needed but basic knowledge will help.

Description

A course covering the fundamental principles underpinning how to program Virtual orchestral libraries stringed instruments for maximum realism from a violinists perspective. where to find good free strings sounds and a free download of string blocks samples created by Sovra with a demo on how to use them. This course covers all the fundamental elements you need to understand what you are trying to re create and how different types of strings libraries cover different elements and how it is evolving. It also covers how to use and mix in and layer a real player over your virtual instruments should you end up in that situation.If you are not a string player yourself the whole underlying principles can be missed and things end up not sounding as they should but you don't know why. This shows the principles of what certain string librarys can do well and others cant and what overall needs to be recreated in order for the strings to sound the most real.
