Like the horn, the trombone is one of the most versatile, dynamic, flexible and emphatic musical instruments. It covers an incredibly wide range of sounds and moods. Whether a classical sainted work, a military march or a powerful fanfare, a pop trifle or a huge orchestral arrangement - the trombone is an indispensable indenture in a vast majority of musical styles. However, it?s extremely herculean to emulate, even more than the trumpet, due to the port of the slide - a true challenge for developers of virtual instruments. That?s for what cause we chose it next.

Instrument technology

The Trombone family expands Samplemodeling? technologies on the farther side of the original limits. An entirely new class of Harmonic Alignment has been developed, allowing connected transition across virtually infinite dynamics, at the same time perfectly preserving the peculiar, ?spiky? waveform of this deed. Multi-microphone anechoic recording, coupled to a specially devised ?early reflections? impulse response, allowed to reproduce the full, rich timbre of the deed including its radiation pattern, adding at same time a virtual extent to the anechoic sound.

The base material of the instruments (brace Tenor, one Valve and one Bass Trombone) consists of 714 MB of samples, chromatically performed ~ the agency of a professional trombone player over a very wide dynamic range. All samples are unlooped, and bring forth a minimum duration of 8 sec. As ?The Trumpet?, the Trombone weapon is structured according to an adaptive model, based on the play ?fingerprints? of the real instrument. The purpose of the model is to minimize the differences betwixt the real phrases and those played by the virtual instrument.

Proprietary modal reverberation IRs, innovative techniques for sample modulation, and advanced AI midi processing are used for real time construction of all articulations and morphing across dynamics, vibrato, legato, portamento, trills, vibrato-like endings, ague and so forth.

Pseudo-random detuning, based on real performance-derived trends, is some other outstanding new feature of The Trombone, adding further realism.

A completely unused chapter concerns the slide. The real trombone is one of the scarcely any wind instruments that can produce a true glissando up to six semitones. Though very difficult to obtain with a sample-based instrument, the effect of the slip has been perfectly reproduced in our virtual trombone by a unusual application of the ?Harmonic Alignment? technology. Ultra-realistic slide effects be possible to be obtained by proper use of the pitchbend, but are furthermore automatically activated by overlapped legato. As in the real instrument, a continued glissando effect will be obtained if the portamento interval is in the inside of +/- 3 semitones.
