CineWinds Core 1.2 now includes the addition of several new 'Ensemble'patches. These new patches combine the core instruments (Piccolo, Flute,Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon) into a single patch stretched across the keyboard.These Ensemble patches encompass most of the primary short and sustainarticulations of each instrument, the ranges of which can be adjusted on theSETTINGS tab of the user interface.
Beneath the EQ area in the SETTINGS tab, you can find the “Advanced Controls” which is a unique setting we created specifically for these ensemble patches. The four knobs control the range of the different instruments withinone section. The advanced controls are set to the instruments’ strongest pitchrange by default but can be changed to any value so long it is within the rangeof the instrument. Again, the user can also assign MIDI CCs to these knobs.
We have painstakingly implemented a multi-layered de-noising process onevery sample in the entire CineWinds CORE and PRO collection. The result isa tremendous improvement from the samples in previous versions.
With this update, CineWinds now works in both the full Kontakt sampler andthe free Kontakt Player. Please note, however, that CineWinds only works withKontakt 5.3.1 and above.For more full compatibility information, visit our website at cinesamples.com
In the Middle Left area, you can find our NEW exclusive feature called“Chord Arranger”. By turning on this feature, the user will be able to play achord and have the patch automatically assign it to an instrument, instead of using the basic instrument switch ranges. When activated, the script will dividethe notes up and send them to different instruments - for instance with a wide voiced 3-note chord: the top note to flute / oboe, the middle note tooboe / clarinet and the bottom note to bassoon. The user can also choosebetween the settings “light” (one instrument per note), “medium (twoinstruments per note)” and “heavy” (3 instruments per note so long it is withintheir range). “Light” is the most realistic setting whereas “Heavy” is a very thickarrangement. “Medium” is often useful for block chord arrangements." Sincethe script is "listening" to the chord being played, there is a slight delay, so fast-short passages may cause problems.
