The purpose of anechoic recording was threefold: The result is a series of playable, very expressive virtual instruments retaining the rich, full sound of the real ones. This yields the characteristic crescendo pattern of French Horns, typical brass flutter on transitions, or even the “watery” sound, knocks, breath noise, and metallic resonances from the bell and the body of the instrument, greatly contributing to realism. The programming moves further away from conventional libraries, by exploiting physically-oriented modulation of the recorded sound. Specially devised “early reflections” impulse responses add a virtual space to the anechoic sound, greatly contributing to realism (see below). Our proprietary “Harmonic Alignment” yields continuous transitions across virtually infinite dynamics.
