Hi,
Downloaded, and Installed it last night, then started playing ... and the first thing I got was some pops-n-clicks when playing some of the sustains at high-velocity, wasn't sure what was causing it, but after a little head scratching, I got to the bottom of what was causing this, I use Presonus Studio One Pro 3.5.1 and have the low-latency Monitoring / Dropout Protection feature Enabled, so I disabled it, and bingo, No more pops-n-clicks ! So that was my first 30 minutes trying to fix the issue, rather than enjoying playing this wonderful sounding solo violin Library.
@Embertone, if you have access to Studio One Pro 3.5.1 , I would recommend you test JB Violin with the Low-Latency Monitoring/Dropout Protection feature enabled, and disabled. I'm guessing something with your real-time scripting is not getting along with Studio One Pro's low-latency feature.
Well... Now that the pops-n-clicks issue was out of the way, I had a long after midnight session, playing JB's Strad on my Keyboard, and was really amazed to hear how great, and real it sounded, and behaved. It does take some practice to master playing it, but that's normal.
It would be very helpful if Embertone would post a detailed video tutorial on exploring some of the creative possibilities, and options related to the 'Control' page. i.e. Show the preset Control options, and what they offer, then dive into the Custom Configurations, and what can be accomplished with them.
Oh.. and when playing the Staccato articulation, I wished I had the option to switch to a bit of a shorter version, i.e. Staccatisimo Articulation, instead of switching to Spicatto to get a shorter bowing sound, but Spicatto does not sound the same as Staccatisimo, since the bow is bounced off the string rather just a shorter bow motion, which I'm seeking. Any feedback on this would also be interesting, and helpful.
Thanks,
