Orchestra at Your Fingertips-Audio Modeling | NAMM 2024

[@biggiesmalls7939]

This is... JAW DROPPING.... It's incredible how accurate modeling has become over the past decade. If I closed my eyes, I would absolutely not believe that this was coming from software...... It literally sounds "more realistic" than any solo Orchestral piece, if that makes sense. Blown away... Thanks for the upload Anthony!

[@azynkron]

It's not only the coding and sound analysis. The computational power that is needed for the real time algorithms wasn't available only like 10 years ago. Not on this scale anyway. And it will only get better as more and more is moved over to the GPU (which is exponentially better at this than the the CPU). But it is impressive.

[@GlennBroadway]

Anthony is one of the kindest people on KZbin. What an amazing demonstration.

[@heathwellsNZ]

I agree. There's one thing to be kind as a person in general... but he's also kind with his skills and his knowledge with a genuine passion to pass that on. There's so many people that want to be somewhat possessive of knowledge and not want to share so they can continually be looked upon as some mystical wizard. Natural teachers are fantastic human beings indeed and Anthony is definitely a natural teacher!

[@baddriddimworkshop]

And i love his message to the world, and despite who he is he seems so accessable too, and he brought us back to when we were kids in the 80's. And tbh, i think i got my synclavier regen because of those two last years spending time great learning things and history with antony. IMOAnthony marinelli along with doctor mix and alex ball, are really the best audio channels online, and whena nthony and claudio are together it gets epic...

[@Rondo2ooo]

I'm not sure if those who are not in the details understand how crazy it is to get such a realistic sound just from synthesis generated sound models. It's light-years from everything before, and this, it really sounds authentic.

[@andre.schwantes]

It's great to watch videos with Anthony and Claudio together!

[@regiopazzo]

Man you’re so right!

[@djsdontdance]

2 legends in 1 room ❤️❤️

[@ilio_official]

Another fantastic video from the dynamic duo, Doctor Mix and Anthony Marinelli! The trumpet finale was a standout moment. Thanks for showcasing SWAM instruments so brilliantly! 🙌

[@MERLIMARTISTICPRODUTIONS]

fantastic. This is the NEXT THING, THE REALISTIC INSTRUMENTS i was waiting for years

[@pshimmons]

Anthony’s voice and demeanor make me think that he is the Mr. Rogers of the music world!!! Loved this whole video. Such a wonderful collection of people and technology!!!

[@JeffPalmer83]

💯

[@russell_szabados]

That is a huge compliment, and I agree completely.

[@neocollective5959]

Haha...I always thought of him like the Bob Ross of music/synths. " we can add a little happy oscillator over here..."

[@bahadirhankocer]

Having been a long-time user of SWAM, witnessing the core team, alongside Claudio and you, gave me goosebumps. This is truly a gem!

[@markmallinder7618]

I’m not sure whether people appreciate just how game changing this is. Not depending on samples should eliminate the need for massive libraries and multiple terabyte external drives and massive RAM resources. I’ve been waiting for this. It’s been a long time coming but I’m so excited that it’s finally here, and it sounds amazing! 😀

[@tjordulf]

I do, I watched that with my chin on the floor. Simply stunning dynamics and human expressiveness!! Wow.

[@morphoice]

The vibe of you guys geeking out together is just as intoxicating as the synthesis! Made my day!

[@jeremy8936]

You could bring about world peace with the passion for music you all have! All the love, all the power to you..

[@user-uq5qw1fk3d]

It's amazing to see how far physical modeling has come in recent years. The sounds and expression from these plugins are game-changing. Great demonstrations and questions!

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

That was some deep conversation. Loved it. I was glued to the screen.

[@chillpillology]

as an old schooler this is completely bonkers insane virtual synthesis. wow. gotta check my budget

[@ChrisMills-AmbientSpace]

I absolutely adore the Swam French Horns. You can build parts with huge personality.

[@bf99ls]

Brilliantly modelled instruments. A musician friend of mine played some amazing orchestral and instrument sounds on his album last year (or earlier). I asked what plug-in samples he’d used. SWAM. I looked it up. Way out my budget range as an amateur on a fixed income (basic state pension), but if I ever get a windfall….

[@danielm5838]

This must have been what it felt like to hear the Fairlight for the first time. Didn't think I'd see a next generation of synthesis design like this with such unexpected results. Crazy

[@briankehew579]

Even better. The Fairlight was ok but still like a single photograph repeating over and over. SWAM is a monster when played well.

[@luigizaccheo]

Yeeeees! Hi Antony, Swam are my favorite virtual acoustic musical instruments! congratulations for everything you have done and what do you do

[@coznova23]

Wow , fantastic vibes , with you guys , sparkling wine, I’m sure it will be Devine , keep it up , it’s precious,

[@swanebrokendeep]

Juste incredible! Amazing job! Congratulations Audio modeling!

[@johnny14794]

Bravisimo! You guys together are the dream team of music. Thanks Anthony !

[@ubarhd1]

Another generation of next step synthesis…wow what a magnificent invention….bravo …👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Wilmer778]

That's INCREDIBLE!! :O Never thought something like this would be possible one day. Good news for Hans Zimmer, haha.

[@rarianfields]

These things deserve more attention. Great vid!

[@carl_47]

Amazing. I love physical modeling since a try pianotec.

[@RudieVissenberg]

I am such a fan of Pianoteq. The subtleties and responsiveness to articulation is incredible. All the different pianomodels they have is just incredible. I also own Swam solo strings and still learning. Much harder to use than Pianoteq.

Des Sonorités avec une expression incroyable qui rend ces Sonorités incroyablement réalistes🎹👍. De formidables progrès depuis toutes ces années.

[@CrankyOldNerd]

WOw, what an amazing thing to hear. I bet it was 200x better in the room with real speakers vs youtube compressed but even via that it sounded wonderful. That demo piece was a lot of fun too.

[@CrankyOldNerd]

oh heck, this star trek nerd just got to that part and NOW i must purchase it lol

[@abregegere]

This is just incredible 😮The nuances and quality of articulation are stunning.

[@franklp2183]

Amazing technology! Allowing the performer to be so expressive... VERY COOL!!

[@Projacked1]

I'm so proud of the current innovations....mind = blown!

[@ischmidt]

Claudio's been blowing my mind with these Audio Modeling instruments for a while, but it was really great to hear someone who's done actual scoring get their hands on it.

[@mathumphreys]

Damn these guys are on it!! I can't believe this is synthesized. I'd love to get my hands on that reverb.

[@oldnoobwithhighendpc9725]

2:28 " i love flute for this reason" window of vst moves around like magic 🙂

[@gitzah]

Goodness, is this for real? What great sounds and demo playing! Certainly shifts gears for writing great tunes. Thanks for this great video!

[@DynamicRockers]

Best duo of the youtube music game! Those instruments are incredible, for slow, simple, pop string arrangements that must be way more convincing than sample libraries.

[@Mopantsu]

Amazing technology, but as always, it is the musician/composer that allows the magic to happen.

[@MrJazz-yp9wg]

I'm speechless...jaw dropping...1000% AMAZING...WAY OUT OF THIS WORLD hands down! I have no words. I'm in awe.

[@nicolamaisano4891]

Bravi ragazzi!

[@branisulek3628]

This is unbelievable, guys! Fantastic!!! 👏🏻

[@tomfay5484]

Never thought this would ever be possible! Can't imagine how the strings for instance are not multi-gig in size! Would have like the demo to have a little less reverb. And is there possible polyphony? chords? otherwise fantastic! Gotta have this!

[@topsymusic3733]

Really great, guys, watching you interacting !🙏

[@junevortexmusic7950]

I love watching these two legends .. is inspiring to me seem like good people

[@Andronacus]

That. Was amazing. Thanks guys

[@Esperluet]

Nobel Price for peace for those genius guys. Unbelievable.

[@jimlemons9231]

Such awesome sounds and great to hear the thoughts behind how it all works. Excellent stuff.

[@rosalindwebb7729]

Wonderful you both are good with music together so impressed.❤

[@sandupetre363]

Amazing plugins, thank you for all the valuable information shared in this video.

[@andreaperelli5323]

everything sounds amazing, great job

[@lorenzosolerfuentes8209]

Woooow. This is an excellent work of research on the physics behind of orchestral instruments. They already blow my mind with Camelot. Swam is massive.

[@DJOZER5]

Légende!👀🎹💯🔥❤️‍🔥🇫🇷🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@HowardBaileyMusic]

Nice patches...also a super musician.

[@boxfishing]

Mind blowing sound modeling. The winds made me laugh hard out of sheer amazement. I swear you can hear the player “breathing” into the flute. As always, lots of positive energy. Keep it up! May I suggest a follow up video with tighter examples of string expression and room modeling?

[@mcramp20]

Absolutely amazing!!! Wow😅

[@pareshmota]

Super, extraordinary 👌

[@gforce7four]

Incredible nuance and immediacy. Thanks Anthony!

[@CampbellDownie]

wow, just wow !!!!!!!!!

[@80sSynthMan]

Awesome video Anthony! I’m an owner of Audio Modeling’s Camelot solution. Amazing instruments and folks at AM! ❤ Bravo!

[@domenicocaruso2153]

Just... Wow! Greetings from Italy :)

[@thomaslthomas1506]

Awesome !

[@manuel_salazar_work]

It feels like this is a big step in synthesis. It feels like back in the 90's when digital synthesisers and samplers kind of killed the analog synthesiser industry. Feels like physical modelling has gotten so good that it might just takeover from sampled libraries.

[@SimonRichardson-ow7rx]

Important stuff! Thanks for this being accessible

[@voice-of-oblivion]

100% WOW!!!!

[@ALFA8902]

My two Favorite guys together nice … great physical modeling wow

[@mar-zgarcia429]

That was pretty amazing stuff . Great video Anthony thank you

[@WilliamAshleyOnline]

yet another awesome video.

[@paul.poulissen]

🎺 🎶 ♥ Really amazing!

[@lovelydonkey]

I'm impressed

[@TheMixClub]

Incredible! Im Speechless.

[@briancase6180]

Wow, I was unaware of these guys. My favorite piano is Modartt pianoteq; physical modeling is here for the rest of the symphony. I must start saving my pennies.... Thanks! I do, however, think the instruments sound best in solo. Maybe it's just because the combined piece overwhelmed the video mic?

[@charlesjackson2512]

Beautiful demonstration. Is this plugin available yet?

[@paulussantosociwidjaja4781]

Wow, this is amazing. Got to make music again soon. Thank you for your passion.

[@paradiddle16]

Pretty impressive!

[@MarioIRossello]

Una bellissima conversazione grazie infinitamente 😊

[@kyriakospatmos6176]

Super 🎶🎵🎹🎼🎻👏👍🏻

[@dmcgwhisper5945]

Wow!

[@961R32]

Omg!😮 Phenomenal! 👏 👏 👏

[@moogfooger]

This is a great video as usual. The elephant in the room is the same question as when the mellotron came out. You remember Anthony? This will rep[lace orchestras. the end of the line for string players. The musicians union will have a bird watching this video. Etc. I would be really interested in your thoughts on this. I don't mean to be snarky, but I guess someone had to ask. Oh, and hi to Dr Mix! Thanks. Cheers

[@ischmidt]

TV scores have been replacing orchestras with gigasample VSTs since they first came out around 2000. It's rare in TV now that you hear any actual orchestral instruments (the 2010 "Human Target" series scored by Bear McCreary was a notable exception, and the network refused to pay for Bear or the orchestra after the first season ended). So the major difference between this and the status quo is that at least the fake orchestras will sound a lot more real.

[@moogfooger]

Thanks for the note. I am fully aware of the situation as it stands now. That was not my point. I wanted to know how Anthony felt about the replacement of orchestras etc. Cheers@@ischmidt

[@MoxieSynth-pu4py]

Great Technology!!! Wow no words to praise!!!

[@georgereshetar9659]

fantastic!! It's incredible!!

[@ITSupport-q1y]

wow Awesome, sound

[@TroutmanRoger]

I remember seeing those Swam library long time ago, more than 10 years for sure. At this time, when i checked internet, there is a litle device (breath midi controller) who everyone used with this library, it's was already freaking impressive ! But now, getting this just with an expression pedal and a wheel modulation is just INSANE ! I can feel how his passionnate about it, great job he is about to do a game changer in the industry ! Many sampled library are actually pretty insane in terms of details, but coming with a physical modeling technology and being able to trick the human ear with some 350mo library are pretty crazy to me ! (french dude here sorry for my english ^^)

[@mark35mi]

Just... wow. Thank you for this share.

[@rossquaresmini5834]

Spettacolo spettacolare ❤🎉 😊

[@Alexholbert]

Amazing!

[@ivanzadrabaj]

Whats the name of comapany or VST used in this video ? thanks

[@nelsonfilho6587]

Bravissimo!!!!! Amazing!!!

[@polaritDK]

è impressionante, complimenti

[@garyclement5527]

Awesome- can’t get no more real than that. The expression is incredible. This replaces the entire Orchestra and will put people out of work.

[@grindhouseglitch]

Sounds amazing!

[@Ziiro406]

Fantastic video. Makes me want to make music again!

[@francescodamico7903]

Fantastico !!!

[@Emerson-F-J]

Incredible ❤

[@Pillowcase]

Incredible.

[@markeyhendrix]

This is phenomenal 👏👏😍

[@peterhanzo8230]

I wasn't breathing at the end, beauty 🎺

[@rosalindwebb7729]

Well done you are all cool.❤

[@stefanpaulus7594]

Wonderful music 😊

[@MakerFarmNL]

Incredible achievement!!! But why does this very nice video lack a link to SWAM? I would like to BUY this!

[@moisepiano]

getting this soon

[@chillpillology]

anthony, man, give those guys a backing track! sounds like 90s corporate presentation music
