What is Bisbigliando?
It is a special method of tremolo that is created by a rapid rubbing of the fingers on the strings of a harp
It is an effect created by wind blowing over the strings
It is an articulation that is made by the bending of harmonics created on the string
It's an effect that is achieved by lightly tapping the instrument with a soft mallet
10
What is the difference between ‘Master', and ‘Elements' libraries?
‘Master' is all of the articulations switched by velocity. "Elements' are the beginning, middle, and end of the samples, chosen with CC2
Master' controls all of the articulations of Play as a whole, allowing for the changing of parameters easily across multiple instrument types
Master' has all of the articulations mapped to a keycap, ‘Elements' loads the articulations, but does not activate them
‘Master' uses the master output of the Play mixer. 'Elements' has automatic assignment to individual outputs
11
What is WordBuilder?
Wordbuilder is a synthesizer built on formant synthesis.
Wordbuilder uses a combination of physical modeling and granular synthesis to generate speech.
Wordbuilder uses spectral synthesis to playback speech patterns.
WordBuilder allows the composer to create phrases for the symphonic choir to sing.
12
What is the difference between a slur and portamento?
A slur has a shorter duration between the first and second pitch, giving it a different curve than the linear portamento
A slur is slower than portamento
A slur is used to tie a legato instrument's passage together, and portamento is used to smoothly transition pitch
A slur is sloppier and has indeterminate time when moving from note to note
13
What does ‘SUS 6' mean in a string ensemble?
It means there are 6 articulations loaded
It means there are 6 stages to the SUS instrument to pass through via the volume envelope
It means there is a chord being played with a suspended chord with a 6 in it
There are 6 voices playing at the same time for the attack of the sound
14
What does ‘EXP' mean in a Hollywood Woodwinds library patch?
Aftertouch is used to get more vibrato out of the instrument
Mod Wheel should add dynamics as well as vibrato
The instrument was recorded in an expressive way with vintage microphones
Expression is added to the instrument with CC10
15
What is an example of an effect articulation for the woodwinds?
Shake, doit, smear, and ‘san cuerpo', or ‘without body' (Ligature only)

Doit, shake, minchamba, and bubble mute
Bop bop a lu bop bop bam boom
16
Which controllers does the EWHS like to see the most?
CC13, Aftertouch, pitch bend, and CC70
Mod Wheel, CC11, CC7, and velocity
CC20, CC21, CC70, CC71
CC3, CC4, CC5, CC6
17
What is the main purpose of Goliath?
Goliath is a sample library of huge stringed instruments that are slightly over-sized
Goliath is a large sound bank of all genres that is a collection of the best of all of the East West libraries. It also has sampled instruments that were specifically made for the library
Goliath is a library of gargantuan drum sounds that is used primarily for orchestral, cinematic works
Goliath was created as a low brass ensemble
18
What is ‘double-tonguing'?
It's an in-joke among brass players
It is a way of stopping a brass instrument with the tongue to create a muted sound
A way that brass players can articulate very fast passages by using both the tongue at the teeth, and the roof of the mouth
It's a technique of creating a false harmonic from the horn using the soft palate of the mouth
19
What is ‘microtuning'?
Microtuning is a way of emulating the tuning tables of other cultures by altering the scale to include deviant tunings that are off by a couple cents here and there, as well as leaving out notes altogether for pentatonic scales
Microtuning is a way to change the entire instrument's pitch by a matter of cents to get it in tune with an out of tune arrangement
Microtuning is a way of manipulating the formant shift of an instrument
Microtuning is a way of setting Play to several different concert pitches like 432 Hz and 415 Hz
20
In Stormdrum 3, what is the difference between Tune ‘A' and ‘B'?
Tuning ‘A' is based on just intonation, and Tuning ‘B' is based on Indonesian tunings
Tuning ‘A' is microtuning, and Tuning ‘B' is traditional western tuning
Tuning ‘A' and ‘B are separate presets tat you can toggle between to figure out what kind of tuning you would like
Tuning ‘A' is simple tuning that also speeds up or slows down the sample. Tuning ‘B' is using time stretching to adjust tuning while retaining timing
21
How do accents work in the Hollywood Strings library?
Accents are used in the performance script section to add influence to the beginning of a given sound
There is a staccato or marcato articulation that plays layered at the beginning of the sustained or legato string articulation
Accents are a volume spike that is applied at the front end of samples
Accents get their own articulation and instrument
22
What is a waterphone?
The waterphone is a cylindrical instrument that has a ports membrane at the top that you pour water through to get interesting, ghostly tones
A waterphone is an instrument that is a blend of an alpine horn and a trombone that is meant to be played into a small vessel of water
A waterphone is an instrument that has a metal water jug with spikes coming off of it. It is played by bowing or striking the spikes
The waterphone is an underwater microphone that was used to capture how transients travel underwater
23
How do the timpani libraries make rolls easier?
The roll can be saved as a MIDI file to be used in a DAW
The left hand and right hand strike of the same pitch are placed an octave apart
The rolls are time-stretched to match the session tempo
The rolls' speed is dedicated to the Mod Wheel
24
What is a way to free up track areas in your main window?
Have all articulations summed to a single bus in your mixer
Have a Play instance on the master bus and route all MIDI there
Use keyswitch instruments instead of having multiple tracks per articulation
Have Play instruments at the top tracks in your DAW to determine where RAM priorities are allocated and use all dynamic articulation control with CC2 instead of CC1
25
Why would you use a script sim?
The script sim can only be used with libraries that are programmed to take advantage of the sims.
The script sim is used to get more dynamic layers out of an instrument where they previously did not exist.
The script sim is used to keep track of the articulation setting and can be used as a controller map as well.
If you are using an instrument that does not have a script built in, like Round Robin samples, these scripts provide a facsimile by using different tuning, timing, and sample selection techniques.
