BlackPanther Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 So I'm using EWQLSO Gold and my question is, is there a way to take the verb out of the samples? How close can I get to makin the instruments dry because they have a bit of verb on them already without adding any effects. Would I be better off looking for other orchestral libraries that doesn't have integrated verb like EW does or can I solve my problem within my DAW?

zircon Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 There's no solution in your DAW. IF you have the Kontakt version you can delete the "Release Trigger" (RT) groups and/or reduce the release time on the samples. Those are your only options, really.

BlackPanther Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Hmmm now why didn't I think of that, thanks Zircon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghetto Lee Lewis Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Platinum edition has additional mic positions with less reverb. Of course the best sample library right now probably is Hollywood Strings, which is recorded in a small studio, not in a big concert hall, so it doesn't have ridiculous amounts of reverb either, although it's expensive and requires a really good computer setup to use. Then again, like Zircon said you can just play with the release, although it probably won't sound as natural if you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackPanther Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Hmm, that sounds like somethin I need. I'm gonna go home and mess with Gold and see what I can do with zirc's suggestions. Hopefully they don't sound to unnatural =/. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy Bound Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I would recommend at least looking into L.A. Scoring Strings. They're really dry and sound really good. They also have great capability for spiccato and legato patches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannthr Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 If you have EWQLSO Gold on PLAY, then you can spend some extra money for the CLOSE mic positions which are a bit more dry. I do not have the PLAY version of SO Gold, but you you can probably unload the release tails in the articulation load/unload window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
