OrchestralTools Sine player and free Layers library.

[Steve Harder]

The new Sine player is behaving well as a Vst in Cakewalk for me.  The free Layers library contains full ensembles of orch, brass, strings and woodwinds.

I am impressed by the quality and flexibility of the free and unlimited orch library.  The learning curve to master the nuances offered within the player looks steep, but the end result is going to be worth it.

@Steve Harder, Thanks for the post.  I plan on trying it out.  You may want to post a cross post in the Freeware Instruments Thread another forum member started some time back.  That way your suggestion will be easier to find as the forum fills up with posts as people will search for the post with the most freebies!

Orchestral Tools just dropped a walkthru for Layers.  If you are curious it is worth your time..

Can you get the SINE player to output midi to another track?  I'd like it to output all the notes to another instrument patch. I can't figure out a way to do it.

I could not use the VST. The problem was maybe file location. So I reinstalled SINE Player, it became useable.

Wouldn't this be a DAW thing? Just route track midi to selected track?

Not all VSTi's can broadcast their MIDI data.

If the plug-in has the feature,  select "Enable MIDI Output" in the VST2/3 drop down in the standard header.

This will make the plug-in available as an input in instrument/MIDI tracks.

 

If the plug-in does not have the feature this option will be disabled. If this is the case, here is a way to drive multiple synths using the same MIDI track

Good point. I am going to test in this with this plugin

Steve,

I have tried to use SINE in CbB.  I've downloaded the player.  It is not 'recognized' in the Plug-in manager, and  never appears when the synth rack view.  I've deleted and tried a new install.  The only thing I've installed is the SINE Player.  I downloaded a number of the free instruments, but they 'sound' in the stand alone.  But, I need it as a VST. 

I've written to Orchestral Tools, but have received no reply.

Have I missed something?

Sine Player shows up as a VST2 under "Orchestral Tools" in CbB here. Works great!

Make sure that you install the plugin to your current VST scan path, or add the Orchestral Tools plugin install path to the CbB plugin scan paths.
