The Creation and Evolution of SWAM String Sections
v(1.0)
SWAM String Sections represents the culmination of years of dedicated research and development, building upon the foundation laid by our solo instrument offerings. The journey to create this product has been marked by numerous challenges and breakthroughs, each contributing to its unique capabilities.
Modeling an ensemble of string instruments is far from a mere aggregation of solo instruments. The intricacies of recreating the virtual room, the complex interactions among the musicians, and the efficient resource and CPU management have posed significant hurdles. What you see today is the result of relentless research, iterative development, and a careful balance of trade-offs, all aimed at providing the best experience ever seen in this category of virtual instruments.
It's essential to recognize that we operate within the realm of physical modeling. This sets us apart from sample libraries where once recorded, there is limited room for improvement. Instead, we are at the beginning of an ongoing journey with ample room for enhancement and innovation. We are continuously working to refine the sound quality and system performance.
Expect a future filled with continuous evolution and improvements. We invite you to be part of this journey and assist us in our quest for perfection. By utilizing our products and providing feedback and suggestions, you become an essential part of the collaborative process that drives our commitment to delivering ever-improving virtual instruments. Together, we will shape the future of SWAM String Sections and redefine what is possible in the world of virtual orchestral sound.
