Playing Position
Choose between 1st Position and Extended for natural and musical connections between adjacent notes. Extended notes will sound muted and darker in tone since they are played higher on the fingerboard than 1st Position. Extended position should be used to replace open strings (C, G, D, A) with fingered vibrated notes. For live performance, use the Sustain Pedal to toggle between positions in real-time (Kontakt keyboard changes to orange color while Extended position is activated).
Vibrato Speed
Choose between Progressive and Full vibrato. While on the default Progressive setting, notes will begin with no vibrato and slowly increase in vibrato intensity over time. While on Full vibrato, notes will begin with the highest intensity vibrato.
Legato Speed
Use the Legato Speed wheel to control how quickly slurred notes transition. Higher settings allow for faster playing and lower settings allow for slower playing, revealing more of the recorded legato transition. For live performance, we recommend assigning a MIDI CC to control the Legato Speed (in Kontakt, right-click on a knob to Learn a MIDI CC).
