Virtual Instrument : SampleModeling The Trumpet - macmusicSampleModeling, a company created by Dr. Giorgio Tommasini (Stradivari Violin, Gofriller Cello) and Peter Siedlaczek (Advanced Orchestra, Classical Choir, Smart Violins, Orchestral Colours, Classical Collection, String Essentials), is pleased to announce the release of its first product : "The Trumpet".

The Trumpet, a new 300 MB Kontakt 2 Player-based instrument, consists of seven instruments belonging to the same family: three different Bb trumpets, suitable for solo or sections, Cornet, Flügelhorn, German and Piccolo Trumpet. The three Bb trumpets may be played with several mutes, including Straight, Bucket, Cup, Harmon (with or without stem). Two different plungers are also available for wah-wah effects.

The Trumpet offers realism and expressiveness by incorporating SampleModeling's proprietary "Harmonic Alignment" and "Modal Resonances" technologies into an "Adaptive Model" based on the physical properties of the instrument, whose aim is to minimize the differences between the real phrases and those played by the virtual instrument. Innovative techniques for sample modulation, along with advanced Artificial Intelligence MIDI processing, are used for real time construction of all articulations and morphing across dynamics, vibrato, legato, portamento, falls.

The Trumpet is available now for Windows and Mac OS X in VST, DX, RTAS and AU formats but also in standalone mode at a price of €149 + VAT (if applicable). Note that video and audio examples are available at :
