Dave Phillips cello

Post by j_e_f_f_g »

I fixed some phase and stereo imaging discrepencies, sharpened the note attacks, and fine-tuned the legato-mode mapping. The result is a clearer cello, Check it out:

Thanks, it's much improved. The lower end has a better attack, only a few notes sounded like they were triggered with a keyboard. The lower range is generally better-sounding, it gets nasal in the highest notes. I'll throw it into the samplers - Redux, LS, and Bliss - to see how they handle it.

Best,

Hi Jeff,
The cello sounds great, especially the lowest two octaves. i combine the cello_vib with cello_vib_legmode for even fatter sounds. But around the 4th C it starts sounding like a saxophone, almost a good one (maybe the settings are usefull for that) and then higher is clearly out of the range of a cello. :)
