Re: Cinesamples 90s Retro Trumpets

Yeah, they seem to be saying that back then the general habit was to rely on the Tree mics for brass during mix phase and so I think they only recorded it with a decca tree. Though I agree having a close mic would definitely have been nice, I guess they felt that providing that would have defeated t...

Re: Spitfire introduces their Studio Series with Spitfire Studio Strings

I don't think Daryl or Piet are saying not to use terms to specify specialized ways of playing a certain note. A Col Legno is col legno, bartok pizz and sul pont are all specific techniques that need to be marked. The difference is that in a score you don't need to direct an ensemble to play "S...

Didn't Spitfire ackowledge that the "full sections" are in fact a combination of stacked samples from the divisi sections? e.g. the main violins patch is 8 players, broken down to 4 and 4 in the divisi patches. So the 16 player patch is actually the 8 player samples balanced with the recor...
