Before I purchase any more violin libraries, does anyone know if there is a decent fiddle VI out there, or a violin library capable of playing in a credible fiddle style? I’m looking for one in which it is possible to create the ornamentations and articulations associated with playing country, bluegrass, Irish, Celtic etc. So far I have tried:
Bowhand:
scratch triplets
slurs
dynamics
doublestops
shuffle patterns
Fingering:
cut notes
rolls
hammer-ons
slides
vibrato
Combinations:
chromatic scratch triplets
fingered doublestops
So far, I can only recreate a few of these articulations. I know there has to be a market for something like this. Is this the last nut to crack in the VI world?
- Embertone Joshua Bell Violin - absolutely beautiful but inappropriate
- Misfit Fiddle - seems useless as a real fiddle
- Swam violin - tons of CC settings but difficult to play in a fiddle style
- Kontakt Fiddle - the tone of the samples seems decent in isolation but not very playable
