1
How do the timpani libraries make rolls easier?
The roll can be saved as a MIDI file to be used in a DAW
The rolls' speed is dedicated to the Mod Wheel
The rolls are time-stretched to match the session tempo
The left hand and right hand strike of the same pitch are placed an octave apart
2
What does ‘DXF' stand for?
Dipole Cross Fade
Dynamic Cross Frequency
Dynamic Cross Fade
Double Cross Frequency
3
What does ‘H' and ‘W' mean in the woodwind trills?
Hurried and Wait
Half-tone and Whole-Tone
Half-cent and Whole-cent
High and Wide

What does ‘EXP' mean in a Hollywood Woodwinds library patch?
Aftertouch is used to get more vibrato out of the instrument
Mod Wheel should add dynamics as well as vibrato
Expression is added to the instrument with CC10
The instrument was recorded in an expressive way with vintage microphones
5
What is a special way that the Play engine can speed up load times?
Play uses CAF files to store Lossless encoded files for playback in real-time
Play uses data compression to play instruments before they are loaded
Play can load sounds into RAM from a virtual cloud
You can have multiple Play engines loading sounds concurrently
6
What 3 countries provide Silk with its sounds?
Italy, Germany and France
China, India, and the Persian Empire
Latin America, Cuba, Iceland, and Italy
Italy, Russia, and Egypt
7
Why would you create a separate lane for key switches?
To use the keys with data to create new melodies
To make exporting MIDI files without the keyswitch notes for a scoring program easier.
To help use those keyswitches for other sections and instruments
To convert the keyswitches to other kinds of MIDI data
8
What is an example of a brass effect?
Con sugo, bellingissimo, molto agressivo, Col Legno
A Crescendo, Rip, Shake, or Cluster
Zing, bop, bam, diggity
Tremolo, col legno, sul ponticello
9
How would you route the audio from EWHS out of the Play engine to separate tracks of your DAW?
Audio is routed from the Play mixer
Audio is routed out from the microphone placement mixer
Audio is routed per articulation in the player
Audio is routed from the advanced instrument preferences
10
What kind of palette is the Dark Side working with?
The Dark Side is all orchestral phrases reminiscent of John Williams' magnificent Star Wars score
The Dark Side is a collection of vocal samples taken from mental institutions
The Dark Side is an industrial library made up primarily of recordings of welding shops and metal work

11
What are the main singers of Symphonic Choir?
Rock, Country, EDM, and Pop
Bulgarian, Indian, Chinese, American
Rock, Pop, Jazz, and Soul
Sopranos, Altos, Tenors, Basses, and Boys Choir
12
How do accents work in the Hollywood Strings library?
There is a staccato or marcato articulation that plays layered at the beginning of the sustained or legato string articulation
Accents are a volume spike that is applied at the front end of samples
Accents get their own articulation and instrument
Accents are used in the performance script section to add influence to the beginning of a given sound
13
What is the difference between a slur and portamento?
A slur is used to tie a legato instrument's passage together, and portamento is used to smoothly transition pitch
A slur has a shorter duration between the first and second pitch, giving it a different curve than the linear portamento
A slur is slower than portamento
A slur is sloppier and has indeterminate time when moving from note to note
14
What is WordBuilder?
Wordbuilder is a synthesizer built on formant synthesis.
Wordbuilder uses spectral synthesis to playback speech patterns.
WordBuilder allows the composer to create phrases for the symphonic choir to sing.
Wordbuilder uses a combination of physical modeling and granular synthesis to generate speech.
15
What is the advantage of using the FX version of the Dark Side instruments?
The FX versions of the instruments are used to create interesting cinematic sound design for film
Switching back and forth can create an interesting zippering effect, and that can be bounced to disk for effect
The effect version of the instrument is usually lower in memory usage
When switching between the FX processed and unprocessed instruments, the samples are common amongst the instruments, so the load time is very fast
16
What is a way to free up track areas in your main window?
Have a Play instance on the master bus and route all MIDI there
Have all articulations summed to a single bus in your mixer
Use keyswitch instruments instead of having multiple tracks per articulation
Have Play instruments at the top tracks in your DAW to determine where RAM priorities are allocated and use all dynamic articulation control with CC2 instead of CC1
17
Why would you use a script sim?
The script sim is used to get more dynamic layers out of an instrument where they previously did not exist.
The script sim can only be used with libraries that are programmed to take advantage of the sims.
The script sim is used to keep track of the articulation setting and can be used as a controller map as well.
If you are using an instrument that does not have a script built in, like Round Robin samples, these scripts provide a facsimile by using different tuning, timing, and sample selection techniques.
18
What is portamento?
A brass articulation that has a long volume fade
It means ‘to play very softly'
A setting that allows a note to slide from its current pitch to the pitch of the next note played
An articulation with a short attack followed by a crescendo
19
How are MIDI performances used with the SD2 library?
MIDI files may be downloaded to the player, and they are retuned and retimed to match the performance of the SD2 sound library's live performance patches
Multi-channel MIDI files play within a DAW to control Multi-channel Play instruments. They are multiple SD2 instruments that are on different channels, to create a great thunderous performance loop
MIDI files may be played within SD2, but the note data only determine a timing and tuning guide for the performance loops in SD2
MIDI files may be dragged into the sequencer in the Player and separate channels can be played back on separate instruments in SD2
20
Which controllers does the EWHS like to see the most?
Mod Wheel, CC11, CC7, and velocity
CC20, CC21, CC70, CC71
CC13, Aftertouch, pitch bend, and CC70
