Good control over vibrato and sustained notes.While these effects are rather scarce (most instruments only have up to five effects, if any), they are excellent as sources of inspiration and a great way to get a track started. Some utter gems can be found under the “Effects” section of each instrument.Pizzicato effects in the EWQL Symphonic Orchestra are very convincing and very well EQ’d out of the box.This enables the composer to control the intimacy of the sound, or - better still - combine ensemble sizes for new textures.

Intelligently selected ensemble sizes allow for good flexibility of production.We’ll go over pros and cons as well as suggestions on how to get the most out of the library should you decide to buy it.
