							Welcome to this demo version of Garritan Orchestral Strings HALion 3 
version. The Garritan Orchestral Strings library has become the new 
standard in sample libraries and now these “HALion 3” patches are yours to 
enjoy.  These patches are fully usable and represent a small fraction of the 
full Orchestral Strings library the will be available for HALion 3.  The 
following list presents some of the outstanding features in demo version: 
 
· The very finest classical stringed instruments were sampled 
including Stradivaris, Guarneri, Montagnana, Testore, 
Gaglianos, and many other exquisite Violins, Violas, Cellos, & 
Double Basses 
· Distinguished world-class players 
· Recorded at Lincoln Center 
· 24 bit state-of-the-art digital recording for utmost accuracy and 
audio fidelity to take advantage of the renown HALion sample 
engine. 
· For this demo there are 4 string patches.  Basic Sordino Long 
Bowings for the Violins and Violas patches, and Legato Long 
Bowings for the Celli and Double Bass patches.  The full 
HALion version will have an exhaustive array of articulation, 
bowings and playing technique patches. 
· One dynamic level sampled in this demo and for the full 
version there are  up to four dynamic levels 
· Full String section for this demo and the full version also has 
both 1st
 and 2nd
 Violin sections. 
· Release triggers:  When you take your finger off a note you will 
hear the ambience of the hall.  Alternating notes using HALion 
3’s new Alternation feature to avoid the “machine gun” effect.  
The full version will have automatic alternation of up and down 
bowings. 
· Legato Feature:  The mod wheel controls the starting point of 
the sample.  In the down position you have the full attack.  Push 
the mod wheel up to bypass the attack portion for a smoother 
and more connected transition. 
· Timbre is controlled by note velocity in these demo patches. 
The full version will allow you to cross-fade between multi-
dynamic samples.
