SWAM Solo Strings has arrived on iOS! The incredibly powerful Physical Modeling technology is now MOBILE. Extreme Expressivity and Realism delivered in a package of only 46 MB These instruments are NOT sample libraries. Unlike sampling, which uses recordings to replicate the sound of an instrument, physical modeling doesn’t generate a sound as such but creates the conditions for the system to create it according to an external input (like someone playing on a keyboard). With our SWAM Double Bass for iPad, you now have the unique ability to express yourself with all the emotions and subtleties of a natural string instrument sound as played by a real player, in any style — from classical to film scoring and even microtonal music. SWAM Double Bass for iPad can be used as a standalone instrument for playing in real-time, or as a plug-in for mobile music production. Play with your favorite external controller or directly from the iPad through our intuitive interface. With SWAM Double Bass for iPad you can: - Explore our collection of presets, create your own, or import them from your Desktop - Play in real-time using the standalone version of the app - Play with different instrument bodies - Play in a variety of styles like a real player Control the instrument’s expressivity in real-time directly through the touch control interface on your iPad including the exclusive virtual bowing touch surface! - Play and control the instrument’s expressivity in real-time using your favorite external controller (ROLI Seaboard, Akai EWI, breath controllers, regular keyboards, and more) - Use the included AUv3 plugin version to produce music with a mobile setup - Use the included AUv3 plugin version in combination with Camelot PRO for live performances - Adjust every aspect of the instrument’s sound (timbre, vibrato, amount of air, etc.) through an easy-to-use control panel - Micro-tune the instrument through the Pitch Manager - Add built-in effects such as Reverb, EQ, and Compressor - Have access to easy MIDI control configurations The SWAM Double Bass for iPad is for you if: - You’re a wind controller player looking for a mobile setup to perform live without needing a computer while still having an incredible sound. - You’re a keyboard player and feeling frustrated by the limited expressive capabilities normal sample-based plugins give you. - You’re a music producer looking for a mobile setup to produce music from anywhere without having to carry around expensive gear. - You’re looking for a virtual instrument that allows you to express the full range of your musicality easily on your iPad. IMPORTANT: If you choose to play using an external controller, please note that a controller with the ability to continuously control the expression (like an expression pedal, breath controller, MPE device, wind controller, …) is REQUIRED. The same way real players need a bow to express themself on their instrument, SWAM Double Bass needs something to control its expressivity. SWAM instruments do not work with just note-on velocity.
