IK Multimedia – Miroslav Philharmonik 1.1 Classic Edition (STANDALONE, VSTi, RTAS) [WiN x86]

DESCRIPTION

Miroslav Vitous >>– The composer, virtuoso bassist and one of the founders of Weather Report came up with the idea of ​​creating the first of its kind orchestral sample library, covering all the instruments of a symphony orchestra. Desiring to have such a collection of tools for his own use, he did not find anything suitable and in 1993 he began to do this work himself. For this, state-of-the-art recording and digitization technology was used: the initial sessions were recorded in 20-bit format, and later in the process 24-bit technology was used. The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra’s solo and ensemble players, playing with different articulations and expressions, were recorded on stage at the Dvorák Symphony Hall in Prague, sitting where they would normally be in most orchestral situations. The resulting stereo samples did not require further panning: the instrumental groups added to the mix were automatically panned. Although the resulting sample pack was huge and expensive, it became a mainstay of many media composers and was eventually released for the Roland and Emu samplers as well as the original Akai. Somewhat later it was also converted to Giga format for the Nemesys/Tascam software sampler. However, in the 21st century there is a tendency to embed sample libraries into VST plug-ins, so the next stage in the development of Miroslav Vitous’s library is the Miroslav Philharmonik orchestral instrument based on VST technology. that the resulting sample collection was huge and expensive, it became a mainstay of many media composers and was eventually released for Roland and Emu samplers as well as the original Akai.
