SWAM Engine digitally handcrafted acoustic instruments are never a simple recording of notes via sample libraries, but rather a set of real virtual instruments based on their traditional counterparts. While a sample library repeats a prerecorded sound, SWAM Trumpets are realized entirely with physical modeling.

Control the expression of your virtual acoustic instruments, break the limitations of traditional samplers, and benefit from the organic consistency resulting from the endless expressive parameters that are unique to every live performance.

SWAM Trumpets includes five expressive and realistic virtual trumpets including the mutes—flugelhorn, flugelhorn (Eb), trumpet (Bb), trumpet (C), and piccolo trumpet. SWAM technology guarantees the same natural reactions as real instruments, letting you compose and arrange your jazz, orchestral pieces, or concertos utilizing powerful instruments with natural, fluid expression.

Choose SWAM Trumpets for composing, producing, or performing. All articulations typical of this instrument can be reproduced in real time by acting on its main physical elements such as pipe length, breath pressure, and lip tension. Independent control of the valves allows both half-valve transitions and ones typically triggered with overtones in glissandos or broad vibratos.

Control the following parameters in real time via MIDI controllers or your DAW:

• Expression (dynamic)
• Note transitions (staccato/legato/portamento) with no key switches
• Vibrato depth (from regular to shake)
• Vibrato rate
• Portamento time
• Growl
• Flutter tongue
• Breath noise
• Dirtiness
• Sustain
• Mute control (wah/hand)
• Attack noise on piannissimo
• Attack tongue
• Reactivity
• Mutes
• Pipe gesture
• Half-valve amount
• Valves and slide position
• Dynamic pitch
• Microtuning
• Main volume
• Pan pot
• Reverb mix

Tired of giga-sized libraries of prerecorded audio and the limitations of traditional samplers? SWAM Trumpets is the solution. It was developed by Audio Modeling using SWAM Technology (Synchronous Waves Acoustic Modeling) through a combination of innovative performance techniques and concepts of physical and behavioral modeling. SWAM Trumpets instruments don’t include any samples and use very little storage space and RAM.

Real-time controllable via MIDI controllers, SWAM Trumpets requires only the smallest footprint to create the perfect organic consistency resulting from the endless expressive parameters that are unique to every live performance.
