Unique features

Perfect dynamic transitions thanks Phase Align

In six months' research, all samples were adjusted in their phase relation to one another. According convinced the sound of instruments with absolutely seamless transitions between the dynamic levels without sound interruption.

Unique Miscibility long and short sounds

Combining long mock and short notes throws in sample Libaries repeatedly on issues related to the authenticity of the sound image. When playing real instruments, the length of the tone both affect its attack behavior and on the toning. Chris Hein Winds Compact addresses this aspect with the "Note Head Designer". Here can be for each category Sustain per controller / controller adapted short sample variations (Shorts) call that not only have the associated, play right Attack behavior but are also perfectly tied according to the note length.

The user-defined selection of the desired Short variants that are present in up to eight dynamic levels and are combined with the respective associated Sustainphasen, allows the most realistic sound experience that can not be achieved with conventional random selection after the round robin principle. Of course, the shorts are also available as individual articulations.

True Legato

The instruments in Chris Hein Winds Compact offer real true legato. The result of the associated complex shots and edits results in unexpectedly realistic sound results in the tone transitions. At the same time possible realistic sounding combinations with additional, artificially inserted Legato variants result.
