Hi guys i was wondering if i could get sum info on violins. I was listening to brainbug - nightmare and i really want to recreate the violin sound in it. Does anyone know any good vsts? or even sound modules of synths that i could do this with.

Cheers

Mike

i've never heard the specific track but have heard a few of brainbug's songs.. he most likely uses samples of actual violins.. if you've got about $2000 USD to blow.. get the Vienna Symphonic LIbrary... there simply isn't an equal..

but if you're like the rest of the world and don't have that much money to blow.. try getting a VSTi like Edirol Orchestral.. it has just about every real-world instrument you could want and with proper FX/velocity variation it can sound very realistic..

they are cellos not violins and to be honest if you want real sounding cellos or violins even just go to whatever highschool you went to and talk to their orchastra department and ask if theyd know any students thatd like to play it for you. then write the sheet music for them use electronic pickups. and record the wav. or most high schools in bigger citys have electric cellos for when they do shit like that and i belive it has midi out on it. but yeah thats your best bet. but its cello not violin

cheers for that tip. I dunno if i'd go to all that hassle just to get the sound tho. If i had a studio then i definately would but im just producing on a pc. I'll have to look out for some cello samples tho.
Cheers

just find a highscool in your area contact the orchastra director and ask the director if they could ask any students. its mostly just a matter of talking and giving the student a final copy they are only highschool kids lol. finding good cello samples are rather diffcult so ive noticed violins are simplier as they are more common then cello but cello is just such a awesome sounding instrument. but yeah good luck. hell might just make a post on random fourms asking for anyone that can play cello and shit. and an electronic pickup for it is dirt cheap around 25bux it just sticks to the side of the cello next to a s hole and shit.

there's plenty of free soundfonts on the web, and free soundfont players too(sfz from rgc:audio is very good)

try googleing for some cello or violin soundfonts
