Best Service Emotional Viola Virtual Instrument

Emotional Viola was created from well over 50 articulations and their variants. By means of an elaborate and intelligent script, countless articulations are wisely linked together, so that they follow the user’s style of playing.

The Emotional Viola Master Patch contains most of the recorded articulations, which logically interlock and provide an elegantly aligned sound, thanks to True Legato. Three different transition types have been captured in several sessions and simulate among other things realistic changes in bowing direction or passionate portamento while playing. The user simply controls the velocity—the tempo of the tone transitions automatically adapts to your DAW.

In addition to the Master Patch, the Emotional Viola also contains an Individuals Patch, which is a set of key switch patches with different articulations of the same category such as sustains, shorts, trills and more. The Specials Patch offers some unusual articulations and effects, and the Stackable Patch contains the main articulations with standardized key switching to match the stackable patches of Emotional Cello and Emotional Viola.

Spiccato, Rota Spicc, Pizzicato, Fliegender Aufstrich, Delicate Phrased, Delicate Sustain, Touch Sense Espressive, Espressivo Long, Progressive Vibrato Phrased, Progressive Vibrato Long, Expressive Brahms, Brahms Long, Arpeggio Shorts RR, Rota Vivid, Czardas Sfz, Sustain Vib XFDe, Sustain Non Vib XFDe, Kernig NV Shorts, Nordic Long, Nordic Variety, Fast Lines Late Vib, Fast Lines Swelling Vib, Tremolo XFDe, Trill HT, Trill WT, Flautando, Nordic, Morbid, Harmonics, Sulponticello XFDE, Sul C, and Undulation Wait.

The Ornament key switches are another great feature. Unlike the Articulation key switches, these are temporary and allow variations of the already selected articulation. By pressing one of the Ornament Key Switches, the current playing style can be faded into another articulation or variations can be generated. Last but not least, the Ornament MKS offers typical effects like glissando, flageolet and many more.

In order to customize the sound of the viola according to your wishes, you can use effects specially designed for the instrument. These include a 3-band EQ, a switchable sordino, and a timbre function. The latter contains 15 convolution-based presets from renowned and experienced sound engineers, for easy and characteristic modulation of the basic sound.

For the use of the Viola as 1st chair viola in an orchestral environment, there are also timbre EQs, which place the viola in its correct position in the orchestra room. The final touch is provided by the Room and Reverb modules, which use professionally recorded convolution reverb presets to reproduce the sound of real rooms and can also be adjusted separately.
