GeoSWAM Collection II
GeoSWAM Collection II bundles five physically modeled Western instruments for GeoShred Studio, covering low brass and trumpet, bass flute, pizzicato double bass, and viola. Each instrument responds to pressure, gesture, and continuous touch input on GeoShred's expressive playing surface, delivering real-time physical simulation of bow, breath, and plucked-string interaction rather than sample playback.
Works with MPE controllers, wind and breath controllers, and GeoShred Control, a free iPhone and iPad companion app that delivers a multi-touch expressive surface for live performance.
GeoSWAM Collection II runs inside GeoShred Studio, with a license included for customers who do not already own one.
GeoSWAM Collection II: Five Expressive Western Instruments for GeoShred Studio
GeoSWAM Collection II brings together five physically modeled solo instruments that expand GeoShred Studio's Western acoustic palette beyond the core orchestral section. The collection includes GeoTrumpet and GeoBassTrombone for brass voicings, GeoBassFlute for the lowest register of the flute family, GeoPizzBass for plucked double-bass lines, and GeoViola for the warm middle voice of the string section. Purchased individually, these five instruments total $250. GeoSWAM Collection II is available for $200, delivering five instruments for the price of four.
Every instrument runs inside GeoShred Studio, where continuous pressure, gesture, and position across the multi-row pitch surface map directly to embouchure, lip tension, bow dynamics, and pluck depth in real time. Inside that environment, the SWAM physical modeling engine simulates the behavior of brass, breath, bow, and plucked strings as a live acoustic event rather than triggering pre-recorded samples. For composers scoring for film and television, producing jazz and pop arrangements, or building orchestral mockups with low brass and bass, this collection rounds out the expressive Western palette available inside GeoShred Studio.

FAQ
What is GeoSWAM Collection II?
GeoSWAM Collection II is a bundle of five physically modeled Western instruments for GeoShred Studio: GeoTrumpet, GeoBassTrombone, GeoBassFlute, GeoPizzBass, and GeoViola. Each instrument is designed for expressive, gesture-driven solo performance on GeoShred's continuous pitch surface.
Do I need GeoShred Studio to use GeoSWAM Collection II?
Yes. GeoSWAM Collection II runs inside GeoShred Studio, and a GeoShred Studio license is included with your purchase for customers who do not already own one. If you already own GeoShred Studio, you can use your existing license to run GeoSWAM Collection II.
How much do I save with this collection?
Each of the five instruments is priced at $50 individually, totaling $250. GeoSWAM Collection II bundles all five for $200, delivering five instruments for the price of four.
Are GeoSWAM instruments polyphonic?
No. GeoSWAM instruments are monophonic by design, matching the acoustic behavior of a single solo instrument. This makes them ideal for detailed expressive solo performance, orchestral layering, and film scoring. For polyphonic physically modeled instruments, see the Naada collections.
What controllers does GeoSWAM Collection II support?
All instruments in GeoSWAM Collection II work with MPE controllers, wind and breath controllers, the free GeoShred Control iOS companion app, and standard MIDI controllers.
What's the difference between GeoSWAM and standalone SWAM instruments?
GeoSWAM instruments run inside GeoShred Studio and are built around GeoShred's expressive performance surface, including its multi-row grid, continuous pitch layout, pressure response, gesture control, and integrated FX rack. SWAM instruments from Audio Modeling are standalone instruments and plug-ins with deeper access to advanced model parameters. Both use the same underlying SWAM physical modeling technology.
