Hi,
I'm working on a piece for 5 violins. Sometimes the instruments are playing in unison or 3+2 or 2+2+1. The problem I have is that I am not really convinced by the sound of 2, 3, 4 or 5 different instances of the solo violin playing the same note together. It doesn't sound like as many instruments playing simultaneously.
I've read about the trick of playing 1 tone higher (midi) and pitch-shifting 1 tone lower (Vienna Instruments). But I'm not too sure how I can achieve that for 5 violins using Sibelius, Vienna Ensemble Pro and Vienna Special Edition Plus.
Can someone suggest a method, not necessarily pitch-shifting?
Is there a way to use some sort of impulse response to transform one solo violin into a slightly different solo violin? After all, every instrument should be different from the other.
Would Vienna Instrument Pro allow me to do such thing?
Thanks for your help / suggestions.
