Selected Test/Private Development - Sweeping Legato V2 (decca only - rough/unbalanced takes)

The 8Dio Studio Solo Strings series carries on from our critically acclaimed Intimate Studio product line. Now with more grit, intensity, controllability and of course articulations. The Studio Solo Cello marks countless hours of critical recording and capturing of essential musical performances, which have been curated and crafted into a fully playable solo instrument. Featuring only the best in musicianship, the Solo Cello has all the intricacy and passion you would expect, capable of dynamic and moving performances, through to authentically virtuosic playing. Recorded in a controlled studio environment, the full quartet 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 musician accurately.

Vista - Cellos Alpha Noodling (decca mic only / rough)

Note: created with a VERY early PRE-alpha version. Featured is 4 viola harmonics, 3 cello harmonics, 3 violins expressivo sords (7 dyn -- also I re-recorded these since they were a bit too expressivo and vintage sounding, but you will still get these expressivo vln sords too). And Harp 1 (there are two in the library, one on each side of the stage).

No processing, EQ, or verb *other than* EQ settings of -2.5db at 274hz on the harp close mic to get rid of some of the resonance.

Not much going on here - I'm just improvising in with a multi that has the 4 patches in it, and then did a basic dynamic mod-wheel pass. 

I did volume automation to help decrescendo the ends of the two sections. Other than that it's the natural dynamics (which haven't had any work on them to "balance to reality" and references).
