Westwood Instruments VIOLA UNTAMED v1.0 [KONTAKT]
With the same unique feature-set as the rest of the Untamed series, including Storms; a powerful articulation which can creates crescendos, from a solo performance to a frenetic ensemble. As well as all of the this, there are 9 other classic long and short note articulations which complement the other instruments in the series.
It's here to inspire your writing and is really at home with minimalist compositions where tone and sound do more talking than melody.
USER INTERFACE Everything to hand As with all our custom designed interfaces, we want you to have a logical and clear layout with everything to hand.
To help you easily understand the instrument, you can hover over any control and instructions appear in the info panel of the Kontakt wind
STORMS ARTICULATION This isn't a swarm, it's a storm. Storms allows you to fade from single fragile notes to a frenzy of Violas.
Great for creating tension before launching your score into a chaotic crescendo.
Subwoofer not included Included in the instrument is a trick weve been using for a long time with strings; sine waves. Adding a simple sine wave thickens up the natural sound of strings. We call this Glue as it fills in the gaps and cements the mix.
To give this the Westwood edge, we sampled every pitch of a sine wave across the 3 octaves of a viola through 1* reel-to-reel tape. This takes away the sterile nature of a pure sine wave and makes it feel more organic. There's two versions to use; one at the regular pitch and an ô8vbö version, which pitch shifts the wave an entire octave down.
PULSE
To add movement to an otherwise static signal, the Pulse section brings a sense of underlying motion.
You can control the intensity of the pulse and the rate which is synced to the tempo to your composition.
EFFECTS
We've added a low pass filter which you can use to smooth off the top end for a deeper and more subtle sound.
Use the Grit control if you need to roughen up the sound.
DYNAMICS
Control the dynamics independently or with the expression so the level rides in tandem with the main performance.
There's also a master volume control so you can precisely blend in the amount you need.

We love the sound of several of the Improvisations together, which feels like a small chamber sized section of Violas all doing their own thing whilst flowing in and out of unison.
