Bowin Description

The Bowin was developed to be an VST instrument that uses a combination of virtual analogue synthesis and physical modelling to recreate the natural acoustic sounds of bowed strings. Unlike a sample based instrument Bowin’s sound is dynamic and completely controllable allowing it to imitate a wide range of bowed string instruments and playing styles. Bowin is 6 note polyphonic (allowing for four strings plus two spare to accommodate note stealing when playing rapidly). The instrument consists of an analogue synthesizer acting as a driver (simulating the bow), a physically modelled string and a physically modelled sounding body that can be scale from the smallest violin size to the largest string bass and beyond. Bowing can replicate both solo instruments and small ensembles, using its chorus facility (in this case this is not a chorus in the conventional sense but works by altering the geometry of the instrument body model and this effectively recreates the sound of multiple instruments playing. Bowin does not replicate plucked, struck or picked string sounds, but is intended purely for bowed sounds, that have a rich character, natural tonal quality and highly dynamic play. Main features: control over bows and strings control over body size various controls for playing style responds to mod wheel, velocity, pitchbend and aftertouch to provide play dynamics easy to use natural and expressive sound demo version is two note polyphonic and sound drops every 45 seconds or so full version available for purchase with six note polyphony and no sound dropouts.
