Intriguing

Not that I want you to spoil the surprise, but, can you say will this library be similar to Minimal and Grosso or more like Da Capo? (The second monitor in your pic suggests the former two - but inquiring minds want to know

)

Definitely looking forward to your runs patch

Will that be for all sections? (If you can say).

Thanks!

Happy Musiking!

Here it is! “Capriccio” Vigorous Orchestral Sampling. A massive collection that complements our renowned classical orchestra line. We went the whole 9 yards to make this production the best it can be. It makes us very proud to present to you this amazing new instrument and hope this will find a good home at your studios. Now enjoy this world premiere of our new sample library and our Cinematic “The Capriccio”.

Capriccio is our biggest Orchestral collection yet, both in terms of physical size and in terms of sound, which is just...BIG!

We had conductor Petr Pololanik approach the limits of his Capellen orchestra for these recording sessions, and the resulting energy, drive and power really comes across in each and every sample.

Each phrase has been carefully treated from conception through production to implementation in the final instrument, to make sure it would work as a whole, and be as widely usable as possible.

We say it is big, and the sound is big, but as you can hear from the demos the sound has a diverse range of uses and is only limited by your own imagination. You can use Capriccio as a base for your composition, or to complement your existing piece, using only bits and pieces. It can be really loud and awe-inspiring, or gently set the mood.

If you are familiar with our previous orchestral instrument 'Grosso', Capriccio's user interface should look quite familiar. The basic structure of the instrument is the same, using 4 presets each divided in 3 layers, but there are many innovations within Capriccio that will make working with this library even more intuitive and flexible.

Highlights include the 'phrase offset' slider, separate volume setting for release tails and MIDI drag/drop from the score view in the interface, straight into your DAW

With Capriccio we’ve brought phrase-based sampling bang up to date. Throw away your preconceptions of stiff one-shot samples and use the power of the Capriccio interface to harmonise, syncopate, offset and blend every one of the 38,000 samples. We’ve wrung every bit of creativity and flexibility out of these phrases and built a bespoke interface that will allow you to do the same.

Despite advancements in sampling technology, you simply can't beat the realism of live played phrases and orchestral patterns so our goal is to make these as playable as possible, like a real instrument, with the minimum of end-user programming. These instruments are meant to stimulate your creativity, and based on the feedback we are getting, that is exactly what they do.

Please watch our range of videos if you want to know more about Capriccio’s inner workings. There are many 'hidden' features that will enhance your user experience a great deal if you know how to use them. For example, with Grosso we added 'bar sync' but for Capriccio we also added 'phrase offset’. These things are very complicated in terms of under-the-hood programming but we’re sure that the intuitive interface makes it easy to realise the potential of features like this.

All phrases for Capriccio are composed in 4/4, with straight 8th and 16th notes.

We have also included a 'runs' instrument with strings and woodwinds runs, a gorgeous and eminently playable multi-sampled percussion patch and a melodic percussion instrument containing Xylophone, Glockenspiel, Tubular Bells and Piano phrases.

We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Capriccio to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer base, will produce with it.

We wish you the best inspiration and creativity!

Is any body else having problems downloading Capriccio?

It seems the content manager downloader keeps stalling and/or failing.

Been trying to download since yesterday evening and have just been able to get one of the smallest files in, Instruments. 16 hours for just this one small part ???

I keep getting server error dialog and asking me to check my interenet connection and resume.

My internet connection is fine though.

Unfortunately the manual download is not at all user friendly. It allows the web browser only to do the download instead of a downloader like iGetter or similar.

HELP!!

Happy Musiking!

Dsan, no issues here -- I was able to download the entire product via broadband cable. And had a power outage in the middle, which the DL Manager resumed fine after power was restored. Hmmm...

dsan@mail.com · Post by **dsan@mail.com** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 4:33 pm

Thanks for the response emasters

Technology....great stuff.....WHEN it WORKS

I've tried several times to close the content manager and re-install but I keep getting this server error message.

I did open the folder where I have instructed the downloader to store to and find many of the files have some to them. This is strange because the downloader is only showing the Instruments as having anything (KB's) in the file (the bar below the file showing percent done).

Well, guess I'll keep struglling with this. It is honestly the first time I've ever had a problem with Sonokinetics download manager. And I own a lot of their stuff

So how you liking Capriccio emasters? I'll bet it's great huh?

Happy Musiking!
