Sustain Non Vibrato (Sus Non Vib)
This instrument features an articulation that has no vibrato, creating a pure, uncom-
monly static sound for bowed string instruments. It is loaded with a legato performance
script that blends overlapping notes and eliminates strong attacks, forcing monophonic
playback; this allows you to easily create smooth melodic lines. Non-overlapping will trig-
ger with their regular attacks. CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) control overall
loudness, and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics (3 levels).

Sustain Vibrato
This instrument features an articulation that employs a moderate amount of vibrato, in
contrast to some of the more dramatic instruments in this collection. It is loaded with a
legato performance script that blends overlapping notes and eliminates strong attacks,
forcing monophonic playback; this allows you to easily create smooth melodic lines. Non-
overlapping will trigger with their regular attacks. CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod
Wheel) control overall loudness, and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics (3 levels).

Long

The instruments in this group are played without legato, meaning that every note
has a clear attack — even overlapping notes. This is ideal for passages that require
more emphasis on each note, or where you don’t need the melody to sound nearly
as lyrical or connected.

Flautando
This instrument features a bowing technique where the player moves the bow up toward
the fingerboard to create an ethereal, non-vibrato, breathy sound. CC 11 (Expression),
and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) control overall loudness.

Grand Détaché RR
This instrument features an articulation that creates sustained notes without a legato
connection (the term “détaché” means “separated” in English), and has a clear attack at
the start of every note regardless of what comes before it. CC 11 (Expression), and Note
Velocity control overall loudness, and there is a round robin (x2) cycle per note.

Lyrical Mute (Lyr Mte)
This instrument employs an expressive style of vibrato reminiscent of a singing voice, and
is played with a mute attached, that mellows out the violin’s timbre. CC 11 (Expression),
and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) control overall loudness.

Lyrical Vibrato (Lyr Vib)
This instrument features an articulation that employs an expressive style of vibrato remi-
niscent of a singing voice. CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) control overall
loudness.

Sustain Expressive (Sus Exp)
This instrument features an articulation that employs a molto vibrato style (highly pro-
nounced vibrato). CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) control overall loudness,
and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics (2 levels).
