Reinvent Your Music with Physically Modeled Strings, Brass, and Woodwinds
The Audio Modeling SWAM All In Bundle brings the power of physical modeling to your orchestral virtual instrument library. Unlike samples, these meticulously modeled strings, brass, and woodwinds leverage the expressive power of physical modeling, offering the same natural response as their real-life analogs to give you real-time control over parameters such as dynamics, expression, portamento, and various articulations for stunningly realistic performances that will breathe new life into your compositions. Optimized for live keyboard performance onstage and in the studio, the Audio Modeling SWAM All In Bundle is a game-changer.

What modeling can do for your virtual instrument library
Although sampling has been the core technology behind virtual instruments for decades, physical modeling has been advancing by leaps and bounds. A sample, while perfectly reproducing an instrument’s timbre and its player’s performance expression at the time of recording, cannot be manipulated after the fact — not without introducing undesirable, unnatural-sounding artifacts. Modeling, a newer, advanced technology, algorithmically models multiple aspects of a physical instrument, giving you variable real-time control over them as you are playing the virtual instrument on your keyboard or in post production.
The instruments
The Audio Modeling SWAM All In Bundle fortifies your VI arsenal with incredibly realistic and expressive, real-time controllable strings, brass, and woodwinds. This masterful “bundle of bundles” includes the SWAM Solo Strings Bundle, the SWAM Solo Brass Bundle, and the SWAM Solo Woodwinds Bundle; altogether comprising:
- SWAM Violin
- SWAM Viola
- SWAM Cello
- SWAM Double Bass
- SWAM Flutes
- SWAM Double Reeds
- SWAM Clarinets
- SWAM Saxophones
- SWAM Trumpets
- SWAM Trombones
- SWAM Horns and Tubas
Taking physical modeling to the next level
The modeling gurus at Audio Modeling, led by Stefano Lucato and Emanuele Parravicini, have transcended the limitations of sampling by developing sophisticated proprietary technologies they call SWAM (Synchronous Waves Acoustic Modeling). SWAM virtual instruments sound amazing; their breathtaking realism largely due to the fact that their most important performance parameters are controllable in real time as you play them. That’s why composers at Sweetwater (who have their pick of the absolute best virtual instruments) are excited about the Audio Modeling SWAM All In Bundle. We’re sure you will be, too!
Comprehensive room simulator
Audio Modeling’s Ambiente Room Simulator is now included in all SWAM Solo Instruments and SWAM String Sections. This deep and extensive room simulator allows you to integrate all your SWAM Solo Instruments and SWAM String Sections in one cohesive environment. You can set each instrument’s position, the room size, mic positions, and absorption materials. Immerse yourself in the realistic room acoustics of a professional recording studio or a spacious hallowed hall — the only limit to creating expressive solo performances and ensemble compositions is your imagination.
