Description

Product Overview

Overview

PolySWAM by Audio Modeling is a sophisticated polyphonic orchestral instrument powered by advanced physical modeling. Developed in collaboration with Latin GRAMMY Award-winning producer Emanuele Ruffinengo, PolySWAM brings the legendary expressiveness of SWAM technology to a dedicated polyphonic environment. Unlike traditional sample-based libraries, PolySWAM generates sound in real-time, allowing composers, producers, and live performers to execute organic, responsive orchestral performances without the constraints of sample streaming or cumbersome articulation keyswitches.

What Stands Out

Key Details

  • Physical Modeling Engine: Utilizes real-time synthesis to eliminate massive disk streaming and provide seamless transitions between dynamics and articulations.
  • Intelligent Voice Allocation: Automatically distributes incoming MIDI notes among virtual players across keyboard registers in real time, mimicking the natural layout of a physical orchestral section.
  • Dynamic Articulation Control: Move fluidly between quiet sustains, staccatos, legatos, and dynamic swells using velocity and expression controllers, removing the need for manual keyswitching.
  • Acoustic Space Shaping: Comprehensive tools for Ambiente and stage placement allow users to position ensemble instruments across the stage to define spread and acoustic depth.
  • Advanced Macro Controls: Dedicated action buttons and macros for adjusting bow pressure, brightness, and fullness, or engaging specific techniques such as pizzicato, tremolo, and con sordino.
  • Ensemble Management: Includes a Master EQ to refine overall tone, adjustable room ambience, stereo microphone distance controls, and the ability to inspect and adjust section split points.
Best For

Use Cases

  • Fast Orchestral Sketching: Rapidly develop chord progressions, melodic lines, and ensemble textures on a single DAW track without stopping to change patches.
  • Expressive Live Performance: Use a MIDI controller with continuous controllers to perform acoustic ensembles with a level of phrasing and responsiveness impossible with static samples.
  • Hybrid Layering: Add responsive, physically modeled phrasing and organic dynamics to existing sample-based orchestral libraries to increase realism and movement.
  • Detailed Scoring: Precisely shape the acoustic environment and instrument positioning to create a professional, cinematic stage image.
Setup Notes

Installation

PolySWAM is delivered as a digital license. Once authorized, the software is installed via the manufacturer’s installer. Because the instrument runs multiple physical modeling engines simultaneously, it is highly recommended to use a dedicated audio interface with high-performance ASIO drivers (on Windows) to ensure low latency and smooth performance.
