Description : Solo violin
Introducing the Lux Violin , a sophisticated addition to the popular series. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a passion for impeccable sound, this library brings the soulful beauty of the violin to your fingertips. Building on the success of the Barbarian Cello , this instrument delivers a rich and emotional experience for composers, producers and musicians.
The Lux Violin uses the revolutionary action and bowing techniques developed for the Barbarian Cello .
Enrich your compositions with the unrivaled beauty of Lux Violin , a library where timeless elegance meets innovative technology.
The Lux Violin uses a unique bow repeat mechanism, carefully designed to naturally repeat notes in sustained articulations – exactly when you need it. This is achieved by using up to five variations of each note, completely eliminating the “machine gun effect”. In addition, the repeats are extracted from the musical phrases, which guarantees a natural and authentic sound.
Legato mechanism
The instrument uses two types of legato transitions, automatically activated depending on the playing style, which is ideal for fast passages. The normal transitions have been meticulously recorded in the range of an octave up and down. The fast transitions cover the interval of a perfect fourth, allowing for flawless execution of fast ornaments and passages.
Wide Possibilities
Lux Violin offers a wide range of articulations, covering the entire dynamic range from extremely quiet to extremely loud sound. Legato, harmonics, flautando, three types of swells and much more are available . In addition, long notes provide both soft and hard attacks, which significantly expands the range of expressive possibilities of the instrument. Short articulations were isolated from musical phrases to achieve maximum naturalness and smooth transitions between notes. Particular attention is paid to the spiccato technique, represented by 12 variants of alternating samples and 5 dynamic layers.
User Interface
The interface offers three modes of operation:
1. Key switches. Allows you to switch articulations using the red keys in the upper register of the keyboard.
2. Split keyboard mode. Allows you to split the keyboard into two parts: for example, play sustain on the left side and legato on the right.
3. Morph mode. Allows you to transform one articulation into another, which is especially useful, for example, for transforming flautando into harmonics or creating other combinations.
Separate patches are also available for those who prefer to work with them or want to save resources.
