It took me over a month to create them, its the first Oriental Strings that
are actually properly tuned and edited with 3 octaves playable and not missing
whole octaves and notes with the proper elements too. Size...202MB.
Most of the existing Strings are the same ones with only one Octave working
and everything else stretched to hell, in here is a completely different case.

i liked them a lot. The size is going to get in the way for sure.

[BasariStudios]

Thanks Sam i am working on it too...the size is due to the length of the Samples.
Now, in Kronos and Kontakt i can have the luxury of that length while in the
other machines not but there is another thing, Strings can have the Max of
3.5 Seconds length to work perfectly, the size can get down 5 times without
a single % of quality lose. There is also the part of Mixing my elements with
Internal elements of each machine, this will also probably serve as copy
protection too...getting somehow to the KMPs will never Sound like this.
What sux about this is that each Format is its own weight and work, its not just a KMP and
load it...which also means if i decide to sell them i will charge for each format, whatever it is
but at the same time serves as copy protection too...if one gets to the KMPs somehow he will
never be able to arrange this or to sound the way it is. In this particular Demo 9 different Programs
are used in Kronos and M3 each one with its own KMP. So if they are not the way they are here
now they will never sound like this. One KMP will be only just a Violin or a Cello or whatever.
There is a blend of many different things, dynamics and samples, i cant even tell what is sounds
like since not one element is from the same place.

Edit:
One thing i forgot to mention is that the Samples in Kontakt and Kronos are all 24 bit,
when going down to 16 i dont believe there would be any lose of quality, thats just talks
but size will go down for sure.

And you probably know Who did the demo...

I think you should seperate the kontakt format and PA format altogether. If anybody wants to use the patches in studio work , then they can get the kontakt version. But for live performance, you can't compromise almost all your Ram for only a string section program,no matter how great it is. Again, good work with turkish string sound. It sounds really good.

[BasariStudios]

Yes Sam,
i will actually do that, every format will be different in size, apropriate for
the machine, as you said, even if its the best Strings in the world noone
would compromise 171MB for that only....lol...

[BasariStudios]

Sam, i can go down to around 55MB or less, EXACT same quality but shorter
Samples, will leave Kronos and Kontakt at 7 seconds and do another version
at 4 seconds, which is long enough...is around 50MB reasonable?
I can do a ONE SHOT Sampling, of all together instead of separate elements,
same EXACT quality but with losing the possibility to mix each element on its
own and also create other variations but i dont wanna do that...i dont know.
Then it can go down to prolly less then 25 MBs.
Here is an example of already edited Cello Note, 4 seconds long, i know in here
it sounds very short and stupid but its not short actually when you play:

And no, nothing is or will be looped, all natural with release.
To be correct exact size is 53MB. 2 elements at 4 seconds, 2 at 5 and 2 at 3.

Wow ! Excellent work, Nedim ! I am really impressed and hope that your efforts will be repeatedly rewarded.

[BasariStudios]

Thanks Venci, there is still few more hours of work on it left so we will see.
