Advanced Soundware 'REALIZE Orchestral Brass': The Virtual Ensemble Plug-in that Transforms MIDI into Expressive Orchestral Performances with a Vast Library
Advanced Soundware, the American audio plug-in developer focusing on MIDI realizations, has recently announced the release of 'REALIZE Orchestral Brass'. REALIZE is the groundbreaking virtual ensemble plug-in that generates expressive, authentic performances directly from your MIDI score. In more detail, this is a software tool that analyzes the tracks in a MIDI file and generates lifelike performances that are delivered as multitrack audio recordings. REALIZE offers over 100,000 sampled phrases featuring more than 260,000 notes in the Orchestral Brass library. This library was meticulously crafted from recordings of real musicians in-situ by a 13-piece brass ensemble.
REALIZE stands apart by analyzing MIDI data to understand musical phrasing, dynamics, and articulations, translating them into expressive performances. Each instrument in the Orchestral Brass library provides a variety of articulations, dynamic layers, and subtle variations, ensuring music rendering resonate with authenticity and depth. In a nutshell, REALIZE interprets your MIDI tracks and transcribes them into music notation alongside a stunningly realistic audio performance for every note of every phrase of every instrument. With REALIZE, users are free from the need to memorize patch lists, insert program changes, perform key-switches, or split their music across multiple MIDI tracks for each instrument in the orchestra. Instead, the MIDI data such as Note On/Off, velocity, and Expression are analyzed and the most suitable recorded phrases from the Orchestral Brass library are adapted to fit your music. This streamlined approach not only saves time but also preserves the musicality of your compositions. REALIZE Orchestral Brass is suitable for composers, producers, musicians as well as educators and students.
In REALIZE, tracks are comprised of 'Motifs', the fundamental musical phrases that are the essence of your composition. Each motif consists of one to four notes - the building blocks of your musical creation. Upon importing a MIDI file, REALIZE undertakes an offline render of each motif across all instrument tracks. This process involves detailed analysis and conversion of MIDI data into audio performances, to prepare for playback and editing within the plug-in. At the core of REALIZE lies the Notation Panel, a space where musical phrasing is visualized and brought to life. With this panel, you can manipulate accents, articulations, and dynamics, transforming your MIDI data into a masterful score. In the end, you will discover the art of fine-tuning each motif in your composition to your exact preference.
The Information Page is your resource for examining the intricate details of your motifs. From note onset and length to pitch, accents, articulation marks, and the dynamics of your motif, this section provides a comprehensive view, enabling you to scrutinize and perfect every aspect of your composition at a glance.
The Waveform Panel provides a detailed view of each note, offering controls for Intonation (tune and vibrato), Position (attack and release), Articulation (transient and inflection), Transition (speed and depth), and Output (volume). By mastering these controls, you can infuse your compositions with nuanced expression and dynamics, tailoring each note to your artistic vision. This panel is a powerful tool for detailed audio editing, allowing fine-tuning of only the selected active note. REALIZE integrates tightly with your DAW, allowing seamless navigation and editing. For instance, selecting a new active note within a motif can be done easily through the Notation or Waveform Panels, and in some configurations, you can command your DAW to jump to the position of the selected active note.
In the Source Sample Dropdown you can select the most fitting samples for your composition. Here, you will learn how to match each note's character with your envisioned expression, elevating the overall impact of your performance. The Source Sample Dropdown is organized into four distinct categories: Detached, Rhythmic, Melodic, and Dynamic. Each category caters to different musical characteristics. The Source Sample Dropdown guides you in curating your orchestral performance with precision.
The Multifunction Panel is a control center for mixing and processing tracks within REALIZE. It includes pages for Monitoring, Routing, Balance, Sections, Microphones, and Master FX. From detailed note information to global effects, each page contributes to a polished, expressive, and professional final product. With this panel, you can maximize the potential of your compositions, bringing your music to life with depth, clarity, and professional polish.
