1
What does ‘SUS 6' mean in a string ensemble?
There are 6 voices playing at the same time for the attack of the sound
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
It means there are 6 articulations loaded
2
Which controller assignments are unique to SD3?
SD3 uses CC2 for dynamic crossfade. CC1 is used to control filter cutoff
SD3 uses aftertouch to control the filter settings, and velocity to adjust the timing of rolls
SD3 uses aftertouch and CC8 for dynamic and loudness control
SD3 is user assignable. You may assign any CC to any parameter in the Play engine
3
What does ‘DXF' stand for?
Dynamic Cross Frequency
Dynamic Cross Fade
Dipole Cross Fade
Double Cross Frequency
4
What does ‘Legato MOD' do exactly?
The Mod Wheel is used for volume
The Mod Wheel is used to create a volume crossfade between samples
When the Mod Wheel is used during a melodic passage, a slur is used to connect the first note to the next note
The Mod wheel is used to switch the instrument between legato and spiccato articulations
5
What are the different mic positions in the EWQLSO?

9
What is portamento?
A setting that allows a note to slide from its current pitch to the pitch of the next note played
It means ‘to play very softly'
A brass articulation that has a long volume fade
An articulation with a short attack followed by a crescendo
10
What is WordBuilder?
Wordbuilder is a synthesizer built on formant synthesis.
WordBuilder allows the composer to create phrases for the symphonic choir to sing.
Wordbuilder uses a combination of physical modeling and granular synthesis to generate speech.
Wordbuilder uses spectral synthesis to playback speech patterns.
11
What is an example of a brass effect?
Con sugo, bellingissimo, molto agressivo, Col Legno
Tremolo, col legno, sul ponticello
Zing, bop, bam, diggity
A Crescendo, Rip, Shake, or Cluster
12
What is the difference between MIDI multis of SD2 and the performances of SD3?
In SD3, the MIDI files are located in the ‘MIDI performances' folder and can be quantized in different ways
In SD3 actual recorded performances are time-stretched to match the tempo of the DAW instead of using MIDI files
In SD3, MIDI performances are not played within the player. They must be accused through the DAW and reassigned to channels there
In SD3, MIDI performances are not used. Instead, there is a new control system that is used to create tuning and timing patterns that are based on algorithms to emulate the performances of Mickey Hart
13
Why would you create a separate lane for key switches?
To use the keys with data to create new melodies
To help use those keyswitches for other sections and instruments
To make exporting MIDI files without the keyswitch notes for a scoring program easier.
To convert the keyswitches to other kinds of MIDI data
14
What is another name for ‘Tam Tam"?
Crash cymbal
Gong
Thundersheet
Timpani
15
Why does the Powerful System have its own folder?
The powerful system is a series of instruments that are designed specifically for overblown movie productions - like a Michael Bay movie
The powerful system is an algorithm that uses advanced core threading to get more efficiency for the CPU
The powerful system is very CPU heavy and requires more overall system resources than any other articulation in the library
The powerful system is just the system file. It's the engine that the EWHS is running on
16
What 3 countries provide Silk with its sounds?
Latin America, Cuba, Iceland, and Italy
Italy, Russia, and Egypt
Italy, Germany and France
China, India, and the Persian Empire
17
What is a special way that the Play engine can speed up load times?
Play uses CAF files to store Lossless encoded files for playback in real-time
You can have multiple Play engines loading sounds concurrently
Play can load sounds into RAM from a virtual cloud
Play uses data compression to play instruments before they are loaded
18
How do the timpani libraries make rolls easier?
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 roll can be saved as a MIDI file to be used in a DAW
The rolls' speed is dedicated to the Mod Wheel
19
What purpose do the Goliath instruments primarily serve?
Goliath is a gigantic library of drum kits that were recorded in very unique spaces around the globe, from decommissioned nuclear reactors to old churches. It is a very unique drum library
Goliath is a multi-sampled very large piano that uses a combination of physical modeling and spectral synthesis to create tones far outside the range of a normal piano and is used for very unique sound design purposes
Goliath is a great way for new users to have a wide, general palette of East West sounds for all genres
Goliath is a gargantuan drum library that is primarily used to create massive cinematic drum patterns
20
What is the difference between a slur and portamento?
A slur is sloppier and has indeterminate time when moving from note to note
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
21
Why would you use a script sim?
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.
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.
The script sim can only be used with libraries that are programmed to take advantage of the sims.
22
What is David's favorite instrument from the Gypsy library?
Cimbalom
Bandeon
Flamenco Dancer
Trombone
23
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's an effect that is achieved by lightly tapping the instrument with a soft mallet

The Hollywood harp is in the ‘odds and ends' library
The Hollywood Harp is actually in the EWQLSO
