The instruments sections will be shown according to the “orchestral order”. Philarmonik Miroslav has been compared with similar products, like East West Quantum Leap Gold Edition and Garritan Personal Orchestra. Perhaps, patches need more velocity sensibility for obtaning a better espessivity with master keyboards. Furthermore, new recordings have been added, like thrills and strings performance. Although many patches have been added, the sound library has a great sound, including only a little attack noise, for example, on instruments to breath and some brass. Once more Philarmonik overcomes the test. Controller or velocity manage time attack. The purpose is to offer more expression and control chances. In my opinion, modifying natural attacks during editing phase is an error. Attacks are very important for obtaining a realistic sample. The second check is for the IK Multimedia sound attack. Philarmonik has overcome these problems: the library is well intonated and easily usable. Vitous library old version had intonation problems so many utents had to fine tune parameters. Once the sounds have been loaded, we decide to check the instrument’s intonation.

The software works with PC or Macintosh systems. The virtual instrument has a moderate cost but offers a great quality of sound.
Recently IK Multimedia, an important company of Modena that has best-seller like Sampletank ™ and Sonic Synth ™, has worked on the sound library, adding a choir and guitar section (non-existent in the old version). It was a great wish for composers that used virtual sounds. Miroslav Vitous orchestral sounds library, now costs less than 1 million lira, but some years ago (akai version) costed more than 3000 euro. Testing the new sound library “Philharmonik” is like testing a luxurious car, suddenly available to everyone.
