Virtual Cornets - comparison between VSL, Samplemodeling and WIVI instruments

TL;DR

This video provides a demonstration of three different cornet sample libraries and compares their capabilities and sound quality.

Transcript

I've had a request to demonstrate some of the cornets that are available in libraries these days and since I have three cornets um I thought I would just go through them and show what they are capable of I've chosen three cornets that have full dynamic control through ACC so you can control these either using after touch for a rolly or something li...

Key Insights

• 👂 The three cornets in the sample libraries offer different sound characteristics.
• 🦛 Sample Modeling cornet is bright and suitable for jazz and pop music.
• 👂 Vienna Instruments cornet has a classical tone with a military sound.
• 👂 Witty cornet has a synthetic sound due to its pure synthesis approach.
• 🎮 Dynamics and vibrato can be controlled in all three cornets.
• 📶 Each cornet has its own unique features and strengths.
• ❓ The Vienna Instruments cornet already has vibrato sampled, unlike the other two.

Questions & Answers

Q: How can the dynamics of the cornets be controlled?

The dynamics of the cornets can be controlled using aftertouch, CC 11, or a breath controller.

Q: How does the sound of each cornet differ?

The Sample Modeling cornet has a bright tone and is well-suited for jazz and pop music. The Vienna Instruments cornet has a classical tone with a military sound. The Witty cornet has a slightly synthetic sound.

Q: Can the vibrato be adjusted in each cornet?

Yes, the vibrato can be adjusted using CC 1 in all three cornets, except for the Vienna Instruments cornet which already has vibrato sampled.

Q: How do the cornets respond to low velocities?

The Sample Modeling cornet and Vienna Instruments cornet smoothly transition with a slight glide at low velocities. The Witty cornet does not have this feature.

Summary & Key Takeaways

• The video showcases three cornet sample libraries: Cornet Version 3 from Sample Modeling, Vienna Instruments Cornet, and Witty Cornet Number 1.

• Each cornet can be controlled dynamically using aftertouch, CC 11, or a breath controller.

• The video demonstrates the sound characteristics and capabilities of each cornet, including dynamics and vibrato.
