You did it bro! This string sound-set you conjured is beyond inspiring and now even more affordable! Your attention to detail here is absolutely next-level! If you could find a way to sample some layered pads with functional ADSR, LFO, Formant Control w/ Loop Points!! I would delete many vst's and solely use this as my main workhorse on the decent sampler-
As source material, you could create a contest on your channel for subscribers to send in their own ambient beds in for "tasty" submissions... This could help to lighten your audio design load and free up more of your time for sampler machine development ! Use us as your foragers so you can keep that oven pumping! Hint: We want our "Pizzaiolo" to make more pizza with Isosceles, cheese drag and way more corniccione! I am no delphic but “Pizza is a Band Aid for so many of our problems.”
Ever try Reaper for sound design and editing samples? Lots of useful scripts and you can write your own.
Thank you for showing a how to do it. I listened many times to Strata by Robert Rich & Steve Roach. I do not know or understand how they made those sounds. Is it sampling, some Moog? Could you tell us anything after listening to their album? Strata is an experience. Steve Roach never answered any of my queries....
The other interesting thing, this time in ethnic music is the tonal material of Ottoman Classical music. The Ottoman tanbur has 34 sounds in the first mostly used octave. In the next octave the spacing on the neck is too short to fit all microtones of the first octave. In Ottoman Classical Music there were at some point 400 + modes...the musical phrases in this realm are varied beyond imagination and I believe that on a synth they would be Pure Heaven. In Istanbul there was an attempt at creating software with the intervals of Ottoman Classical music ( makam music or Sanat muziği), and lately the microtonal guitar was introduced by Tolgahan Çoğulu a graduate student of Istanbul Tehnik Üniversitesi. I am sharing all this info because their microtonal realm must one day be married to the synths to produce the astounding. I m hopeful for a reply...
Done and done! 🙃
I'd argue I don't really play any of my instruments, but fake it enough to seem like I can.
I'm going to have to borrow that phrase now haha. Brilliant
thats how 99% of our society works in all regards! :D
I'd argue I don't fully inhale oxygen into my lungs, but inhale enough to seem alive.
It's called improvising
This sounds absolutely stunning!! I would love if you upload a video simply explaining sampling. It would be extremely appreciated.
I second that
google SampleRobot
That's was awesome, Cameron. So inspiring to see you coming up with this library, not to mention the end result! Already downloading it and going to have some fun with it! Thanks a lot!!!
I've been messing with the free version of this and was super excited to see this video of how you made it. Great work, as always! 🙌
Love it! You inspire me in a way that resonates with my past.
I have big hands-my limited training w/ strings was the bass violin, back in high school, where it was an advantage! I tried all kinds of things, but this was long before digital stuff. When my younger daughter was in school, we rented a couple of violins. I still wasn't set up for capture. But my favorite experiment back in the day was with an electric guitar my dad got (and I never saw him play). I'd set it on the floor, set it in front of the speaker at the edge of feedback, stick a tin can on the strings, and between rocking it back and forth on the strings (kind of like your plucked samples), and singing into the tin can (think: convolving voice with the impulse response of the strings, which varied as the can rocked), plus the feedback and distortion from the amp...
Now that I have mikes and a DAW, maybe I should get a guitar!
Gorgeous work man! Very excited about this and itching to explore it.
Bravo! I've been playing violin for nearly 30 years and this just blows me away. Sounds amazing! I'm gonna have to pick this up tonight and play around with it all Thanksgiving weekend - and I see it's on sale! Luck me. Can't wait to see what kinds of sounds I can make to play violin along with! Thanks for all the time and work you put into these plugins and videos! Legendary!!
This sounds simply awesome! Thanks for the work - downloaded!
Absolute pleasure to watch you work. You have great skills for sure and entertaining!
Right on brother! Stoked to check this out!
Wow, this is SO damn inspiring! Like, the sound is freaking amazing and I instantly want to go find it and use it in a track, but even more than that, it makes me want to get my own cheap acoustic instruments and get creative in Kontakt, Omni, or my Fantom. There are a couple smaller sample/VI developers who are really starting to saturate the market with intimate-sounding strings and such, but the fact that you made your own....... just damn. Truly, it inspires me, as a part-time film composer, to chase down a few of these cool sound-design rabbit holes I keep watching you go down. Thanks so much for all this amazing content! I feel like I'm gonna have to go support your Patreon channel. Best wishes!
So inspiring🙏. Thanks a lot. Always a treat to watch😊
Great video as always Cameron. Your new instrument turned out really cool.
Absolutely brilliant and beautiful work! Serious kudos!
Very interesting. I will definitely be checking it out. Love your vids man!
Fantastic project- and excellent video! Thanks for sharing!
This is outstanding! Another new favorite from you. This sounds purpose-built for a historical western drama film or series, maybe right after a battle or death of important character…Or maybe in the build up to it. Just perfect! Love it!
I love these videos because it just feels like hanging with the wise big homie for twenty minutes. Thanks for all you do VT!
I've played violin for 50 years, and taught privately for 30. Everyone thinks their hands are too big. Even tiny people think their hands are huge when you play one of those instruments. Look at a close up of Itzhak Perlman that includes his hands: THAT guy has large hands. And yet, he's Itzhak Perlman. I have fairly large hands. Trust me, you get used to that, and unfortunately, it's not much of an excuse. 😉 Buck up, buccarooni! 😆
On guitar/bass, people think their hands are too small...people always want an excuse for why things are too hard for them 😝 the solution to almost every question/problem is practice 🙂
My hands are enormous (though I've lost a lot of weight lately, so my fingers are now long and skinny), and it was often a small but not insurmountable barrier to initial comfort and the first steps to muscle memory, but I've seen people with tiny hands playing full-scale 5 and 6 string basses, and people with meat shovels playing delicate demi-semi riffs on a mandolin.
It's all about the 10,000 hours.
@@stephenshoihet2590 The number of guitar students I've had who gave up when they couldn't play their favourite song on the first lesson is easily the largest contingent of students in my teaching history.
This is the best sounding library I found from you on Decent Sampler
Excellent once again, it really sounds amazing well done !!
Gorgeous sounds indeed. Very nice to see the creative process !
Straight incredibleness! Amazing work!
Thank you, Cameron. Awesome stuff as always.
This is SOOOO inspiring! Looking for a used bowed instrument right away! Thanks a lot man!
wow. that thing sounds awesome, great job!
wonderful. lovely sounds. great job.
Great work! It really sounds amazing.
Well done! Sounds amazing 🙌
These recent videos have been nothing but amazing !
You tapped into the joy and sense of discovery that comes from first learning to make music. This is a wonderful video.
Absolutely love this!
Amazing sound design! Would love to hear what you can do with other acoustic instruments...how about dulcimer and autoharp next?
Downloaded the free version, but I'm going to have to upgrade because these are amazing sounds. There's these evolutions and micro movement patches that are gorgeous. Great walkthrough on creating this instrument.
This is amazing.... It sounds utterly stunning....
I absolutely love the sound of it!
Love your videos. I recently incorporated "Stella" in some music. I also find myself using a couple of David Hilowitz's samples a fair amount like the box harp and the slinky violin
Super cool sound experiments!
This is very inspiring!!
Love this library!
Congratulation! I used to play viola long time ago....very well re created! Cheers!
This came at just the right time.
Kinda gives permission to play around with things that I have no business trying to play normally. ie I'm babysitting a very nice electric guitar, but never thought to try to get sounds from it, other than butchering a normal playing method.
You played that pad, and i was transported to a sunrise in a desert...Man that was a film score, right there!
Funny I just downloaded this on Sunday and thought it was beautiful. Then I see this behind the scenes vid and I’m totally blown away. Just amazing!
Great video, thanks. Play and have fun
This sounds great! I love it
This is a nice idea. Thanks.👍
So much character and so deep , well done
Effin' Fantastic, thanks !!
Man, I love making videos about production so dang much, but you are the one guy on the net that both absolutely inspires me, and makes me want to freakin' quit with your insane attention to detail, and absolutely perfect production. Hate you so much, keep up the great work my friend, always waiting for the next one! LOL ❤❤❤
we need a video with instructions how excactly to record sounds, how to modify them and attach them to keys. Basicaly very detailed video of how to create our own VST Plug-ins :)
Really nice this one. Coupled with some of David Hilowitz's videos this is both entertaining and informative, and gives ideas for sampling and mapping to form an instrument.
The best music lesson ever. Thank you!
Hey Cameron, nice coincidence I also bought a violin around christmas. ;) It's super fun to explore, as long as you have a decent ear.
bought it. thanks for all your fantastic creative videos
I love how you keep making interesting stuff!
Some of the sounds remind me of the recent MNDALA libraries. I really like them. That's a compliment ;-)
Yes MNDALA is awesome.,weird and eerie....
Gorgeous is an understatement. Love it.
I love it !! I am self taught as well and I love to experiment with everything like this.
Wow, what a great teaching voice!
Really great vid man
"Cause there are no rules, this is science." Gotta say i love you for exactly this stuff keep it up
Dune for life and great job on the sound design 👍
Volitions is fantastic! Compliments!
WOOOOOOOF! Wow! Its just good soup! Thank you! 😀😍
Great video, I love it, and I didn't know about that Tascam model - it looks wicked. That said, great results aside, I was surprised you didn't name this library "Violations" 😅 Big coffee cheers!
Beautiful!
Awesome! This kind of reminds me of the times when I walked around our studio (in the early 90s) and using a Hohner (8 bit!) sampler knocked and hammered on everything that was lying or hanging around the whole building. The (metal) lampshade in the living room clearly was the winner.
Btw: Has anyone ever told you, you have a really captivating and intoxicating voice?
Man, you've made an incredible video and mentioned great ideas. I almost hate the fact that now I know even more ways of making my music sound more interesting and unique. Freedom is a great weight to carry...) Thank you for what you're doing!
fun stuff! you can also try lightly tapping the strings with the bow to produce yet another kind of sound. and of course use the bow with another instrument like guitar, bass etc but that's perhaps outside the scope here.
Your videos are so sick man. That “yea” @0:59 cracked me up
Thank you for retroactively justifying my amazon viola purchase from last year. I knew I bought it for a reason.
You took a $100 amazon instrument and made it sound freaking amazing!!
Damn, so cool. Gave me mad chills at 18:30. Can't wait to try it out, thanks for giving this stuff out for people, super awesome. Thanks for the knowledge as well. Will be super interesting in metal, maybe great for isolated sections and layering on top too.
Pro tip: play low and add fuzz distortion for some stupid cool bass-y sounds.
The sound you got from this modern instrument is highly reminiscent of the viola da gamba. If you're not
familiar with that suite of string instruments it won't take much more than 15-30 minutes to find some
recordings online and see how much your viola sample library sounds like a "consort" of gambas. The
big difference between the gamba and modern string instruments is that gambas were gut-strung and
fretted, producing a "gritty" (not a great description) timbre like your close-mic'ed "greenhorn" bowing
technique on El Cheepo, the frets to a large extent preventing vibrato as we know it today. The sample
library you've created therefor winds up sounding vaguely "Medieval" due to that similarity of timbre and
character, and would probably be great for scoring period films where an actual viola da gamba ensemble
would be a little too "on the nose". Or a different sort of film that with an introspespective, contemplative
moment as the character looks out a window at a stark winter landscape. And these are just the first
impressions I get from hearing this examples in this video.
I love the way you had to look at your watch to calculate 20 years 😂
PS: your videos keep getting better and better, thanks so much for sharing 🥰
Loving this! Have you played with this stuff with Mark Mosley there in Nashville? I think ya'll could have some good times messing with this... Useful stuff. Tell Mark that Caprice Fowler thought you could have a really cool time, messing around.
Very beautiful results after sampling the viola! Commendable & Impressive!! A cello would be Fantastyk
Just downloaded the free version - very good sounds.
Now I need to see what they sound like within a track.
Dixon Beats mentioned your last two instruments on his channel (regular updates on free vsts and such). Maybe give him a quick mention here?
Fantastic content from you as always. Most inspiring music channel I watch because it is all doable and creative.
This is amazing...!!!!!!
Very very cool end results
I appreciated the way he said "you know what big hands mean, it means I have an enormous..." and then cuts the scene so you visibly notice - AS IF he said the naughty thing accidentally and had to edit it afterwards to something less naughty. Even though he knows that you know it was contrived for humorous effect.
Great job
Another inspirational vid... at this rate I'm going to have to put you in the credits for my next album 🤣🤣
That Dune patch is AMAZING. I could listen to a drone of that all day.
I’ve been monitoring Dune3 for a while. Do they ever do sales? I’ve not seen much. First law of buying VSTs is never pay full price*
*unless it’s a valhalla or spectrasonics plug-in :)
@@paultumelty True. I've only paid full price for Spectrasonics...twice. It was worth it both times.
Honestly, this reminds me that I *really* need to get myself a new violin. I had one years ago, and I enjoyed that thing to the point of guarding it against even my own little sister (and I trusted Her with pretty much anything I had, from my most delicate (or dangerous) books to my most fragile music gear).
This is filmscore worthy . . great work
It's really interesting to compare your approach with that of David Hilowitz, who is a string player. You both have a playful way of gathering potential tools and making them work. I think this product is probably darker and broodier than David would have chosen to construct but the ensemble idea is working out tremendously well. I think you can expect to see a lot of clones appearing in that sound space very soon.
Very interesting!
What kind of video would I like to watch at 11.52pm? Why, a video of someone playing an instrument they don't know how to, of course! 👏👏
this is incredible bro
This is a great sounding library
I layer this with spitfire free orchestra strings patch and the results is phenomenal
Thank you for those lovely undefinable rich sounds they are A W E S O M E , I use my iPad and Cubasis and having a blast with it…..pigs in space 😂
Note….already looking forward for the next one…..don’t be shy….it’s ok….love it
This is dope
Cool, man. Thanks! How is Bitwig’s tune-down compared to Kontakt’s?
amazing result! im not sure if i missed this, or it was just not spoken off, but how exactly is the different external third party effects incorporated into a separate instrument like this??
holy crap man, this sounds seriously awesome
Thanks! Really happy with how the final library came out. Layers so well with other stuff and adds a cool sense of that stringy 'air' sort of thing which has been awesome to round out things that feel too synth-y. Definitely an experiment I'll want to repeat at some point!
Something I found cool is that for a short while at 3:50 the viola makes a sound really similar to the drone from deadmau5's My Pet Coelacanth.
Huh. Interesting note - that does sound fairly close actually! Might have to goof around with some of the raw samples and see if I can get close to the real sound!
Hi Cameron! Great work as ususal!
I follow your video-thoughts with great interest. BTW I'm an ambient music maker (as SOLYARIS MUSIC).
Back in topic, all sounds deep in your volitions creation, but I especially appreciate the pizzicatos swarms.
BTW, I'm confused because somewhere on a youtube video I saw you as a pianobook artist, nevertheless I currently do not found you on pianobook website.
Are you no more in that community? I lost something? Maybe you explained your leave on one of your videos?
Thanks again.
