Best Service Chris Hein Winds Complete Virtual Instrument

Description

Chris Hein Winds is an extensive woodwindlibrary meeting the highest expectations in regard to sound, quality, expression and usability. The libraries instruments are based on painstakingly recorded and editedmultisamples,with numerous articulations and up to eight dynamic layers. Producer Chris Hein has brought thirty years of sampling experience into this masterpiece, giving the user maximum flexibility anda highlevel of customization, while maintaining the ease of use.

Chris Hein Winds consists of four individual volumes, also being available separately or combined in a bundled complete version. The library contains a total of 13 instruments: four transverse flutes, three clarinets, three oboes and three bassoons.

Perfect Dynamic Transitions Thanks To Phase Alignment

Over a research-period of six months, all samples have been fully aligned in phase. Accordingly, the instruments offer perfect seamless transitions of dynamic layers without sonic degradation.

Unique Combination Of Short And Long Notes

The combination of long and short notes is a major problem in sample-libraries, that often failto deliver authentic sounding results. With real musical instruments, the note length often influences the attack behavior as well as the note end. Chris Hein Winds addresses thisaspect withits Note Head Designer. Here, along with each sustain-articulation six matching shorts sample variations (Shorts) can be called up using controls or MIDI-controllers. TheseShorts not only offer the corresponding correct attack-behavior but also a note-end that perfectly matches the note length. Theseuser-defined selectionsof short-note-variations are available in eight dynamic layers each and can be combined with the corresponding sustained phases, leading to astonishing realistic results that cannot be achieved using random round-robin based selections. Of course, theshorts are also available as individual articulations.

True Legato

The instruments of Chris Hein Winds offer true legato in up to four dynamic layers. For example, while playing the French Horn, the sample-engine selects the perfect note-transitionfrom over 2,200 samples,resulting in legato-realism simply unheard until now. At the same time, it is aslo possible to add additional artificial legatos totheserealistic combinations.

Library Extend

The librarys performance-data directly reflect the immense investment of recordings and configuration possibilities. Each instrument builds upon almost 10,000 single samples, 14 articulations and up to eight dynamic layers. This makes Chris Hein Winds the most in-depth-library of orchestral woodwinds currently available. The custom-tailored user-interface of the Kontakt Player not only offers numerous functions to adapt the librarys sound character and articulations but also offers immense configuration choices to live up to specific demands and workflows. At the same time, the library can also be effectively played without any need for deep edits. 26 pre-programmed key-switch-presets at the lower part of the keyboard (A-1 to A#1) allow fast tryouts of all available types.
