Dan Dean Solo Strings is the culmination of many months of recording and editing. Solo Violin, Solo Viola, and Solo Cello were recorded in stereo in various articulations (arco/vibrato, pizzicato, half-step and whole-step trills, spiccato and tremolo). Each note of each instrument was recorded in each articulation. There is no pitch-shifting or unnatural transposition artifacts commonly found in other libraries. Also, since each and every note of the instruments appears unaltered by pitch shifting, the bow and instrument body resonances as well as the overtones characteristically generated, are true throughout the entire range of all of the instruments. This creates a smoother, more organic sounding bank with even note-to-note transitions. Instruments and banks on this collection include violin, viola and cello with arco/vibrato, staccato, pizzicato, tremelo, and half-step and whole-step trills.
