Orchestral String Runs v3.1 KONTAKT

Orchestral String Runs v3.1 KONTAKT

Orchestral String Runs became the industry standard for very fast, agile and quick string lines. Innovative fools like the Runs Builder let you build your own realistic runs out of thousands of tempo-synced run elements. In addition to a huge collectoin of pre-recorded octave runs, the Runs Transitoins Patches let you perform your very own ideas. Orchestral String Runs also comes with basic articulatoins to enable a better blending with other collectoins. The Runs Builder is consistently sampled to the Runs Builder included in Berlin Woodwinds.

New in Orchestral String Runs 2 Update:
Runs Builder 2.0:
Special scales like whole tone, octatonic and chromatic scales are now also possible.
In addition, every slot has its own tempo mode slider, a fine adjustments slider & an option for creating triplets out of 16th-based figures.

New playable runs patches:

  • Newly recorded samples with two separate groups of musicians per patch for realistic, natural tuning and timing discrepancies.
  • This patch is available for Violins+Violas and Celli+Basses. These patches now have longer final notes than our Runs Transitions Patch 1, which is based on real legato-sampled staccatos.

Measured short tremolos:

  • As an addition to our short trills patch, we have recorded tempo-synced measured short tremolos (doublets and triplets), all sampled with repetitions. This patch is also available for Celli+Basses.
  • Marcatos for Violins+Violas and Celli+Basses.
  • New sustain patches with more velocity layers and x-fade scripts.

Mixtank.tv BOT Creative Use of Multiband Sidechain TUTORIAL

A technique made popular many years ago by legendary producers, Daft Punk – sidechain compression has become a staple part of dance music ever since. But – nobody said staple had to mean boring, right? Correct.

To breathe new life into this widely known but commonly underused technique, we asked one of electronic music’s most prolific producers – BOT – to take a new look at multiband sidechain methods of production and shine a creative light on some new and exciting ways to implement it into your own productions.

Across five chapters, BOT shares his own techniques for using Multiband Sidechain, Compression and Expansion in a creative way; you’ll learn how the process affects the sound, how it can help add a ‘human touch’ to electronic music, how to use it when working with hi hats, and how it impacts the final mixdown.

Working from Ableton and using Fabfilter’s Pro-MB plugin, BOT’s Creative Use Of Multiband Sidechain tutorial for Mixtank is a masterclass in how to get the very best out of your sound using tips and tricks that BOT commonly applies to his own productions which have seen releases on Mad Decent, Southern Fried, Dirtybird, Relief, Fool’s Gold and more.

Recorded with a diverse range of live vocalists, it can do up-front vox duties on lustrous pop and silky smooth R&B, as well as processed melodics for hip hop and trap trickery. New Riff and Run presets let you create original vocal runs by combining chopped samples mapped to a scale, and preset macros make it quick and easy to add a little extra seasoning to your licks.

The Sound Editor page lets you modify the individual sound sources (A/B) – giving you access to tuning, filters, panning, and envelopes.

Customize the effects chain of any preset with the Effects Editor. Quickly swap out effects using the dropdown menu, or change the order via drag-and-drop.

Quickly generate ideas with a flexible 16-step sequencer. You can also modulate up to six assignable macros such as filter or distortion.

Edit the assigned macro controls, control parameter ranges, change macro mappings and create your own custom controls from one dedicated page. The coloured macro dots give you visual feedback on your mappings for maximum ease of use.

Customize the instrument your way from the Settings page. Edit key ranges, adjust velocity curves, and more.
