Oh i didn't know about the cyber week sale. Hope this sale will not over lap with my purchase today. Just got Full Joshua bell Violin and it is just Amaaazing!!!
What is the 'advanced copy protection' it refers to on the Embertone website? Are there extra steps end users need to take beyond just using Native Access?
That would be this coming Friday 12/6/19, correct? While the Essential is very tempting, I've been wanting the full version for a long time and I'm suffering through a computer rebuild right now and a few more days to recover would be great!That would be Friday at 1159PM EST - thanks!
How are you liking it thus far? Any other solo violins you have to compare it to?Just got the Essential violin. Wanted to go for the full... but trying to be cautious with money, so I appreciate the option to get into the product a cheaper way.
I have Tina, and the vibrato is over the top for many things. Being that this essential is on/off basically, how much of a vibrato is there?I don't have the full version - but it kind of reminds me a little bit of Cinesamples Tina Guo's Legato Cello - but it's more flexible/adaptive. I'm not saying it's a direct comparison, but it has a wonderful tone just like TG and it will shine through during expressive and exposed solo parts. The main difference is that it can be used for livelier passages also, so I find it easier to use (ie. I can just play). Does what I need, pretty happy with it!
You can have no vibrato unless you call for it.I have Tina, and the vibrato is over the top for many things. Being that this essential is on/off basically, how much of a vibrato is there?
I mean I want vibrato, but is it over the top expressive, or moderate that can handle most things? I think Tina Guo is too much as a comparison and also the SF virtuoso violin is too much I think at times. A middle of the road vibrato would be ideal if we don’t have a choice.You can have no vibrato unless you call for it.
So where can I upgrade to the full version of JB on Embertone's website?
Sorry, we'll be switching over to "Cyber Week" mode, whatever that means! The weekend deal will just be the weekend deal.
Between you and me, though (and I guess everyone else who is reading this!), it usually takes us a few extra hours to fully switch. So if you still want any of the solo strings at half price, you still have a few hours.
Thanks!
I'm still torn if the Essential JB is useable for a solid solo performance. I most likely wouldn't use many articulations anyway...if it's that much work MIDI-wise, I'd just hire a live violinist...but for a simple mockup to get the idea across...is it good for that? Will I miss staccato or is spiccato good enough? And lastly, is the vibrato very over the top that it can't really do normal, less expressive passages well? Listening to the full version of JB isn't fair since you can control the amount of vibrato...Essential it's on or off. Thanks again.
