was excited to buy this http://www.daz3d.com/baroque-trio perfect to entertain the emperor's dinner party.
- Viola da Gamba
- Theorbo
- Baroque Flute
but now i'm stuck, no idea how to make sound clip for it.
does anyone know if theres a music software with those instrument voices?
is there something like, i guess, make like a melody template and then could switch instrument voices?
thanks

Yes, samples for them exist...not the easiest things to find, but they are out there (several sample collections on CD and such), not found any free ones, though
Most software synthesizers would be up to the task...
Fluidsynth would be my choice, but it is command line and has no GUI (there are many GUI wrappers for it, though, but I'm not sure what there is for Windows or Macs).

Here's a list of some frontends/programs that incorporate it...

thanks.
hoping i can hum a tune and the s/w could turn it into digital music sheets?
was just reading film specs at da, says Stereo audio at 128 bit AAC or higher 44.1 khz
..If you also have Ness' Harpsichord you could have a quartet.
http://www.daz3d.com/harpsichord
The harpsichord also has articulated keys.
yup, haz that one. and the other fancy organ http://www.daz3d.com/timeskeep-organ
and merlin's celtic harp.
... need s/w voices for those too
would love to have content something like capt nemo's submarine organ
And you should be able to animate the keys with midi control.
I'm not plugging it or anything, but you might take a look at Acid Pro, by Sony. It's not too terribly expensive, and it comes with a veritable crap-load of instrument voices. (Full disclosure: I do have it, and occasionally use it. Not much, but just enough to prove to the world periodically that, well, I'm no Beethoven.)
thanks. sony acid a daw?
so far, i've learned need a daw to play a vst.
was lookin for samples of what antique instruments sound like
found
English harpsichord Kirckman 1790
so this is what they were grooving to
this looks interesting http://www.amazon.com/IK-Multimedia-Philharmonik-Orchestra-Workstation/dp/B000BWI79I
Unless it specifies, its unlikely to include viola di gamba or theorbo (honestly nothings likely to include a theorbo, as it was always a novelty instrument, but there should be something out there that includes a lute, which is pretty close)
Also shoutout to musescore, Although thats more if you can read music well.
...there's also a very nice traditional pipe organ that comes with this:

The organ can be used as a separate standalone prop.
Here's what a baroque period organ sounds like:
1. Germanic/Dutch
2. French.
Here's some harpsicord samples (and a few other things)...

Not exactly cheap...

nothing free I could sample I am afraid or could make you a tune
OMG it has a sackbut! And Crumhorn.
I do have about 72 hours of early music on my computer.
I almost object to that being referred to as medieval music as a lot of that stuff is much more renaissance, but there are worse things (like pre 18th century films with super piano-y soundtracks)
I love the sackbut it sounds exactly how the name suggests
Also side note, but while they are a trio of baroque instruments, they are not three instruments that would be heard together in a baroque trio :)
Also baroque trios could have anywhere from one to four instruments, because baroque composers were fun like that.
There a viola da Gamba here...
the samples are .wav format.

rename extension mp3, a silly 3 blind mice based tune using the sample
...the harpsichord was often the "fourth member" of a trio as it provided the "basso continuo" for the ensemble filling in with chords using a tablature known as "Figured Bass". (kind of the baroque version of a "fake sheet")
There are also "trio sonatas" that are played by a single performer (organ).
Baroque chamber ensembles traditionally employed a combination of the following: violin, viola, recorder (soprano to bass), viol de gamba, lute, hautbois (oboe), and natural trumpet (no valves). Older instruments like the crumhorn had fallen out of favour by then, although an imitative stop on the organs of the day was still common (particularly in French organs).
I should set up a machine to do music...I've got a ton of samples, collected over the years and software for it...but never really decided to set up a computer for it.
it's elegant sounding 3 blind mice
One of the best medieval libraries on the market. I have it and I love it. I use it with Cubase as my DAW.
Every year after christmas they do a BOGO sale, so you get it half off, if you are interested in other VSTs.
If I were still working in the 'industry' I'd probably have it. I don't do enough to justify it, but yeah it looks like it is the go to set. All the reviews I've seen and some of the demos I've tracked down (for some reason the video just doesn't want to stream for me) say the same thing...it's great.
Another nice set seems to be

You can also use Savihost for your VSTi instruments
I found the record and playback functions now work on my new Mobo after much fiddling with engine and other settings but otherwise set your sound card input device to stereomix and use audacity to record.
In Linux there are many options...almost too many.
If you have an iPad, you may want to take a look at IK-Multimedia's SampleTank. You can do a crazy amount of music on more recent iPads usually much cheaper than desktop app/VST prices. I usually use Cubasis as a DAW, but I think SampleTank has it's own recording capabilites as an IAP. It also comes with short little riffs for the different typs of instruments.
da daw >.< oscar mike gulf
this is sony acid 9.0
think i understand the buses now
i see how to drag a wav file to a track. in sony acid music
think i understand the mixing board buses now.
:)
my first misunderstanding,
i thought,
loops were like a rhythm i would add to the track,
and the VST would be the instrument i would assign to play the rhythm?
but, that's totally wrong?
and it lists a tambourine joy
joy
joy
wanted tambourine to go with this outfit
listening to the hearing samples wowwwww
this makes sense? right?
vsti >.<
There are two types of VSTs:
A VST instrument, and a VST effect.
A VSTi is a software synth. It has sounds it produces, just like a hardware synth does.
A MIDI track in ACID has MIDI data - note on and off, along with many control data to manipulate the data.
In ACID, you add a VSTi and then create a MIDI track that sends its data to it to trigger the note data output by the VSTi.
The simplest way to experiment is to add a new MIDI track, and place ACID in to edit mode.
By default, ACID will add the built in DLS soft synth, which is like a VSTi.
You can then paint/draw notes into an event on the MIDI track. As you do this, the soft synth will play the data.
You can also load (import) a Standard MIDI file onto a track(s) in ACID and it will play through the built in DLS softsynth. You can at any time add a new VSTi and send a tracks' MIDI data to this new VSTi.
