Inspired by virtuoso violinists of the past, Signor Paganini is the ultimate Solo Violin spiccato/staccato library. Designed by Emmy Award-Winning composer, Garth Neustadter, Signor Paganini defines a new level of realism in virtual solo string instruments.

Signor Paganini is the only virtual solo violin that can convincingly execute extremely fast playing with ease, utilizing 13 velocity layers. Unlike any other virtual solo string instrument, the Kontakt interface allows users to apply EQ controls to each individual string, creating unsurpassed abilities for tonal and timbral shaping.

Ideal for film and classical applications, Signor Paganini Solo Violin was patterned after one of the most famous Stradivari violins created: the 1727 "Paganini" Strad. Virtuoso violinist, Nicolò Paganini, purchased the instrument in 1817 for a mere $128. The instrument is now worth over 5 million dollars! Possessing a brilliant and strong tone accurately emulated by the virtual instrument, Paganini himself declared, "This violin has a tone as big as a double bass; never will I part with it as long as I live." He never did.

Featuring an extended sampled range almost an octave beyond similar solo violin sample libraries, the designers of Signor Paganini sought to retain many of the subtle nuances and "auditory cues" that define the performance of a great virtuoso violinist, from subtle attack sounds to natural releases.

Version 1.0 includes a single patch that focuses exclusively on spiccato, staccato, and ricochet articulations. Unlike other libraries, Signor Paganini truly captures the full dynamic range of a solo violin performances, from light sautillé bowings to heavy spiccato attacks, with 13 velocity layers.

Customers who purchase Version 1.0 will receive free future updates to the short articulation patch. Note that Signor Paganini 1.0 contains one performance articulation patch and no round-robins. Users must have the full version of Kontakt 5 or 4 and above. This product is not compatible with the free version of Kontakt. Click here to view the Full Product Manual.
