Number of Samples used
in brackets: Samples created from the same recording are used
in another sound bank. (virtual copies or looped varieties)
bold: number of unique original samples |
velocity layers |
maximum number of velocity layers in instrument |
sampling interval |
semi: Some instruments can be sampled in equidistant steps. semi
gives the number of semitones per keysplit |
|
diatonic: for the flutes and reed instruments the natural diatonic scale has
been recorded. (Fmaj for alto recorder, Cmaj for the tenor and soprano) |
|
partials: A couple of instruments can not play a regular diatonic or
chromatic scale. Instead a scale of partial harmonics is produced
and sampled. (Fanfare, Lure, Trumscheit) |
tonal range |
steps: For melodic instruments this is the range in semitones.
For overtone instruments the number of sampled partials.
for percussive instruments this is the number of different notes or
playing techniques
lokey: Lowest sampled note (in brackets: midi note number)
hikey: Highest sampled note (in brackets: midi note number)
Note: The usable range generally exceeds the sampled range of
the instrument. This is achieved through pitch shifting of the
samples. If You want your music to be playable within the original
range of the instrument however then only the recorded tonal range
should be used.
