If you have more ways of inputting (recording) expression in the performance, use them. Use all the added power of expression and control that comes from physical modeling, by assigning controllers to various aspects of the instrument

It really makes a huge difference on the authenticity and expression on instruments that are naturally performed with your breath (brass and woodwinds) While physical modeling at least tries to be more like a real instruments, meaning unlimited variation in every aspect of the sound. Simply because samples are “burned in”, like a bunch of pictures (even though there are 1000s of them). The main advantage imho is the incredible control over the sound, tone, expression and performance you get compared to “sample libraries”. I will start by sharing my top tips regarding using many of these physically modeled instruments. List of the Best Physical Modeling VST Plugins (in the world)Īgain, please share any tips, tricks, or personal experience on Physical Modeling Instruments!

Here is a list I’ve compiled of all the “best” Physically Modeled Instruments as VST Plugins on the market: Please share your experience on Physical Modeling Instruments you have used, and add suggestions of plugins. This technology has been around for ages, but in the recent years advancements in computer power has made physical modeling take a huge leap forward! I am a huge fan of physical modeling instruments, meaning VST Plugin Instruments that use advanced algorithms and synthesis to re-create “real” instruments as accurately as possible.
