Upgrade from v2 to v3 today and take advantage of powerful MIDI mapping feature that supports CC, Hi-Res CC, After-Touch NRPN, remapping curves that allow more customization and sensitivity to any controller, realistic Legatos,
new Pizzicato Model, general sound improvements and behavior of bowed string, timbral correction feature, standalone version, VST3 plug-in format, Native Instruments NKS compatibility, and real-time bow Sensitivity Control (on bowing mode).
On SWAM Double Bass, for example, it is possible to combine a portamento of any speed, during a crescendo or a diminuendo, while playing a tremolo. This is possible because this instrument is based on physical and behavioral modeling.
START PLAYING FOR REAL
Developed by Audio Modeling using the SWAM Technology, this digitally handcrafted acoustic instrument is real-time controllable via MIDI controllers and doesn't need any Giga pre-recorded library: the smallest footprint creates the perfect organic consistency resulting from the endless expressive parameters that are unique of every live performance.
FOR STAGE AND STUDIO PRODUCTION
You can used SWAM Double Bass for Classical, Jazz, Pop, and any other musical style. It’s up to you. It can be layered in a section with no artifacts; just select a different instrument timbre for each instance. Whether you are a composer, producer or live performer, SWAM Double Bass will allow you to play a realistic acoustic instrument in real-time. And it's the only tool available that guarantees this result.
Control the expression of your virtual acoustic instruments, break the limitations of traditional samplers and benefit from the perfect organic consistency resulting from the endless expressive parameters that are unique of every live performance. No Giga-sized pre-recorded libraries are required, but only the smallest footprint.
PLAY WITH REAL TIME CONTROLS
All the following parameters are controllable in real-time (through MIDI) or by a Digital Audio Workstation:
Expression (Dynamic)
Note transitions (Staccato / Legato / Portamento) with no KeySwitches
Bow Pressure, Bow Position
Play Mode (Bowed, Pizzicato, Col Legno)
Mono vs Double polyphony
Vibrato Depth, Vibrato Rate, Tremolo On/Off
Tremolo Speed, Harmonics
Portamento Time
Portamento split point (across strings)
Attack speed
Dynamic Transitions
Sordino On/Off
String preferred selection
Alternate Fingering
Bow Lift
Bow Start (Up / Down)
Sustain

Now Updated to v3!
Powerful MIDI Mapping feature that supports CC, Hi-Res CC, After-Touch NRPN, and remapping curves that allow more customization and sensitivity to any controller.
Realistic Legatos
New Pizzicato Model
General Sound improvementand behavior of bowed string
Timbral correction feature. You’ll be able to select up to two harmonics to adjust (for emphasis or reduction).
Standalone version, introduced VST3 plug-in format, and Native Instruments NKS compatibility.
Real-time bow Sensitivity Control (on bowing mode). This gives you the ability to transform the bow, from a short bow with soft strokes to a full-length bow with strong strokes.
START PLAYING FOR REAL
SWAM Double Bass is never a simple recording of notes via sample libraries, but rather a real virtual instrument based on its traditional counterpart: unlike any sample library repeating a pre-recorded sound, SWAM Double Bass plays for real.
Control the expression of your virtual acoustic instruments, break the limitations of traditional samplers and benefit from the perfect organic consistency resulting from the endless expressive parameters that are unique of every live performance. No Giga-sized pre-recorded libraries are required, but only the smallest footprint.
DIGITALLY HANDCRAFTED INSTRUMENTS
All virtual instruments created with SWAM Technology are far from a simple recordings of notes via sample libraries: they are sets of real virtual instruments based on their traditional counterparts, and they allow you to control the expression of all virtual acoustic instruments: while a sample library repeats a pre-recorded sound, SWAM instruments play for real.
System Requirements
Supported formats and OS
macOS:
macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) – 13.3 (Ventura)
Standalone, Audio Units, VST, VST3, AAX 64bit
NKS (Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol)
Apple Silicon architecture supported natively (AAX Silicon supported natively starting from v3.7.0)
Windows:
Windows 10, Windows 11

Small footprint!
Required space after installation: 16 MB per single plugin format + 15 MB for shared resources and assets, 240 MB for the complete Solo Strings bundle (all plugin formats).
RAM occupancy: about 15 MB per instrument instance.
CPU load
The realism and expressiveness of SWAM instruments require a computer with at least a 1.6 GHz Core 2 Duo CPU for running a single plugin instance. Less powerful systems may also prove satisfactory, but may require larger buffer sizes, involving higher latencies.
