Constant Sound Power
Constant sound power no matter how many notes in a chord
What is constant power?
This refers to keeping the sound power constant no matter how many notes are in a chord. Without DVZ, each added note increases the number of sampled players so the sound power increases. You can still vary the sound power if you want with the usual volume and velocity features of MIDI.
Why is constant power needed?
Without this function, the overall sound power increases when you play more notes and decreases with fewer notes. To then get the sound of a live orchestra you have to constantly ride the volumes. DVZ eliminates this unnatural artifact and gives you a true orchestral representation.
Matching live players
In a mix between MIDI tracks and live tracks DVZ libraries offer a major advantage. Because DVZ maintains sound power balance in the same way a live orchestra does it, you simply play and it matches. Without DVZ you must either constantly ride volumes or you’ll hear your MIDI tracks disappear and jump out front.
Ideal for scoring
Live orchestras naturally maintain a constant sound power balance; no matter how many notes they play in a chord, they don’t rise up and crowd the dialogue. DVZ’s function is exactly the same so you not only get note divisions that are correct but also maintenance of proper sound power balance.
