SWAM DOUBLE REEDS

Four handcrafted digital acoustic instruments – Oboe, English Horn, Bassoon, and Contrabassoon – developed by Audio Modeling using  SWAM technology to be  the most realistic, real-time controllable, and expressive virtual double reeds on the market.

Any instrument based on SWAM technology allows controlling primary expressive parameters, such as dynamics and vibrato, continuously and in real time.

SWAM Double Reeds also provide comprehensive staccato/legato articulation management, a key characteristic of double reed instruments.
