I'd like to be able to customize the colors, even if it's just the module backgrounds. As you can see from my sig, I love to customize my tools.

Especially when I'm doing orchestral stuff, I like to use sends for reverb, so versions of the presets without the convolution would be a convenience.

Noted! 

Thank you Erik. Glad you find them useful and hope they bring you pleasure and joy! 
I plan to update them this year so suggestions, requests and such are most welcome.

best, 

New Day | Sketchbook II

sketchbook II is a serie of music pieces made to showcase sounds and possibilities of ORCHESTOOLS | SECTIONS - Free Public Orchestra open source virtual instruments (musictop69.wixsite.com/orchestools)

Hi Jose

Thank you for kind words, glad you like orchestools.

In terms of using articulations you can use both, you can, of course, create separate instances of the instrument and load specific articulations presets on them or use the layers inside a single instance of the instrument, load the desired articulation samplemap, edit the parameters to your taste and set different MIDI ch. for each of the layers which then you can than control utilizing articulations control from Cakewalk, or controller MIDI channel switch or some other way that utilizes MIDI channels. 

There are few factory presets that explore this possibility,  inside the MULTIS&COMBIS group there are 5 presets that start with MIDI (MIDI BASS ARTICULATIONS, MIDI TUTTI ARTICULATIONS etc.) that demonstrate this feature. On these presets Layer 1 has a MIDI ch. set to 1,  Layer 2 to MIDI ch. 2, and so on... (MIDI channel is set on "MIDI&KEYRANGE" subpanel of the layer UI). By changing the MIDI channel on a controller (or DAW clip/articulation) you jump through layers which have each a specific articulation samplemap loaded with other edited parameters as well. In this way you can save, load, customize and create your own setups that specifically suit your project.

Example: You can open four instances of ORCHESTOOLS | STRINGS and on each of them have 4 types of articulations of the instrument group - 4 violins articulations, 4 viola art.... and so on! Or, you can load 4 different tutti articulations samplemaps on a single instrument instance. Or combine the two and create new and unique orchestral textures... 
 
Hope this helps a bit! 

Regards.

ORCHESTOOL | SECTIONS completed

Happy to announce the release of the last of four instruments of the ORCHESTOOLS | SECTIONS - Free Public Orchestra series. The instrument covering percussions ORCHESTOOLS | PERC is released (go to orchestools website page for download links). Spent more than a year in developing and working on this project. Next few months i will work mainly in making tutorial/instructional videos and few demonstrational ones as well. In general i am happy with the result and already instruments have been downloaded (over 2000 downloads total) and reactions, suggestions and ideas are coming in. Already there are talks/plans for ORCHESTOOL | SECTIONS 1.5 version - wich will instroduce more samples, more articulations, more presets and improved funcionalities of the engine.

So, ORCHESTOOLS | STRINGS, ORCHESTOOLS | BRASS, ORCHESTOOLS | WINDS and ORCHESTOOLS | PERC are now available for you to download and play with. Hope you like them and find them useful in your work and projects. Would be great, and i would appreciate it very much, if you send results of your work, link of audios and videos. Also, I would appreciate very much your opinions, ideas, criticism about this project.

For music and ❤️
