Albert King/Stevie Ray Vaughn July 19, 2013 Were you a fan of the great blues guitarist Albert King? I was. So was the masterful Stevie Ray Vaughn, who died tragically at the age of 35 in a helicopter crash along with several bandmates and the craft’s pilot on the way to a gig in 1995. Ever wonder what a lengthy studio session featuring these two would sound like? If so, check out this link: youtube/watch?v=gZB57b3lPQE. It’s a gift from YouTube to all of us! On the software side, I’m currently checking out a pair of software instruments that are worth your attention. I reviewed 8DIOBOE recently and found it hard to believe that 8DIO would be able to create another woodwind instrument that would surpass it, but it’s possible that the company’s Claire Clarinet might have done the trick. Check out these demos: 8dio/instruments/#instrument/clarinet-virtouso/. The Vienna Symphonic Library recently released the Cello Section component of their Dimension Strings library. Same drill as the violins: six players, individually miked, with software that allows you to assign parts separately, in pairs, or as an ensemble. What a great idea! I’ll get back to you with more detailed impressions as I have the time to experiment with these libraries in depth.
