SAMPLEMODELING - OFFICIAL CHANNEL

Samplers and synthesizers have been for decades the cornerstones of virtual music.

The virtues and drawbacks of each approach are well known. Simply put, samplers, while preserving the basic timbre of the real instrument, result in a static sound, which cannot properly morph across dynamics, vibrato, portamento etc. This is particularly true for solo instruments.
Synthesizers allow for greater expressiveness, but at the expense of the realism of sound.

Despite recent improvements, the situation has not substantially changed over the last two decades, and the difference between real and virtual instruments is still easily perceived at the very first listening.

The purpose of our research and development was to overcome these limitations, leading to virtual instruments which could not be distinguished from the real ones.

This has been achieved by our sample modeling approach.
