Sustain NV NV VB
This instrument combines 2 articulations: non vibrato in the lower 2 dynamic levels, and
a sustain vibrato in the loudest dynamic level. CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod Wheel)
control overall loudness, and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics (3 levels).

Sustain NV VB VB
This instrument combines 2 articulations: non vibrato in the lowest dynamic level, and a
sustain vibrato in the loudest dynamic level. CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod Wheel)
control overall loudness, and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics (3 levels).

Sustain Non Vibrato (Sus Non Vib)
This instrument features an articulation that has no vibrato, creating a pure, uncommonly
static sound for bowed string instruments. CC 11 (Expression), and CC 1 (Mod Wheel)
control overall loudness, and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics (3 levels).

Sustain Vibrato (Sus Vib)
This instrument features an articulation that employs a moderate amount of vibrato, in
contrast to some of the more dramatic instruments in this collection. CC 11 (Expression),
and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) control overall loudness, and CC 1 (Mod Wheel) controls dynamics
(3 levels).

Short

This folder contains a collection of instruments that encompass articulations that
the Solo Violin can use to generate short sounds, including various plucking and
bowing techniques. Most of the instruments respond to MIDI Velocity to control
loudness and have multiple Round Robin samples per note.

Marcato Vibrato RRx4
This instrument features an articulation that begins with a strong accent and lasts a
moderate duration, with a light vibrato on the end for color. Marcato articulations are
well-suited to marches, strong repeating rhythms, and generally any place where you want
something a bit more forceful. CC 11 (Expression), and Note Velocity control overall loud-
ness, and there is a round robin (x4) cycle per note.

Martele RRx4
From the French word meaning ‘hammered’, this articulation is produced by playing per-
cussively to create a sharp accent on the attack of a note, and a quick definite release.
Martele is similar to staccato and well-suited to marches, strong repeating rhythms, and
generally any place where you want something a bit more forceful while adding space be-
tween notes and extra choppiness. CC 11 (Expression), and Note Velocity control overall
loudness, Note Velocity controls dynamics (3 levels), and there is a round robin (x4) cycle
per note.

Pizzicato RRx4
This instrument features an articulation that uses a technique that involves plucking one
or more strings at a time to create a characteristic percussive sound. These have a lighter
quality than bowed notes and are generally quieter and woodier. They’re an excellent
compliment to woodwind staccato notes. CC 11 (Expression), and Note Velocity control
overall loudness, Note Velocity controls dynamics (3 levels), and there is a round robin
(x4) cycle per note.
