There are six main modes – major, natural minor, harmonic minor, melodic minor, whole tone and chromatic. The Modes panel is where you select the, er, mode. Each run and arpeggio was recorded with two round robins and you can sync their speed to your DAW’s tempo. Runs & Arps contains just two instruments – Strings and Woodwinds – which have exactly the same settings. You need to play with expression and tremolo controls to get the most out of them.Īs with the Symphonic Sketchpad, the instruments have three Mic positions and FX rack. While these are expressive top-line instruments, many articulations play at a fixed dynamic which seems rather strange (see also the Sustains in the Sketchpad in Part 1 ). This is controlled by both the legato and the sustain articulations (should you want to edit the parameters). On the Horn in particular, you can hear the different round robins and on some notes there’s a small pitch bend to the note creating a rasping sound.Īll the instruments except the Tuba + Trombones have true legato. Of the solo instruments, the Solo Violin, Oboe and Horn are favourites. From the deep darkness of the Celli + Basses and Low Brass + Low Strings to the thunderously resonant Bass Clarinet + Contrabassoon to the lightness of the Flutes + Piccolo – wonderful sounds. While you could arguably make a case for many instrument combinations, these are a good pick. There are also six solo instruments: Violin, Cello, Flute, Oboe, Trumpet and Horn. Here’s the list: Violin Octaves, Celli + Basses Octaves, Flutes + Piccolo Octaves, Oboe + Bassoon Octaves, Bass Clarinet + Contrabassoon Octaves, Trumpets + Horns Octaves, Tuba + Trombones Octaves, Horns, Trumpet Octaves, Low Brass + Low Strings Octaves and Horns + Violins Octaves. To select the 17, Red Room analysed some pieces by classical and modern film composers and selected those which had the most evocative melody combinations and instruments.
