The best thing about Swam Engine is that you feel like a multi-instrumentalist without having to individually learn every instrument. Legato is a bit harder to obtain because you need to control carefully the pressure on both the old and the new note. I warn that you need to practice a lot with the Seaboard. Open the SWAM instrument and load the Default Seaboard controller. Camelot grants you full access to Plug In software instruments, hardware and synths and midi controllers at the same time and I love the fact that you can create a combination of patches on the seaboard Rise through the Camelot software. Just let the Seaboard in MPE / multi-channel mode, with per-note-pitch-bend set to 48 semitones. It enables me to control multiple keyboards in just one touch during my live performances. As a live keyboardist, I have found that working with Camelot is easy and very helpful. I have always dreamt of playing with natural sounds, like the trumpet, the trombone, the flute, the clarinet and violin, and I can now achieve this with ease with the Roli Seaboard Rise and Swam Engine’s all in bundle, and I think it’s the best I have worked with so far. Dedicated transpose buttons allow you to shift the keyboard range up to +/- 12 semi tones and can quickly be re-purposed to change the Global MIDI Channel or send Program messages. I play keyboards with the legendary band The Gypsies, whose main influence is based on the Sri Lankan Baila which is unique to the island of Sri Lanka. Nektar is known for making innovative MIDI controller keyboards with a wealth of extended functions that go far beyond simply playing notes. Having Swam Engine Audio Modelling has completed me as a keyboardist, a composer and an arranger. Hi, I’m Dushan Jayathilake from Sri Lanka.
