SWAM Violin for iOS: Unmatched Realism and Expressive Power in Your Hands
Experience the cutting-edge Physical Modeling technology of SWAM Violin for iOS, now featuring the revolutionary Room Simulator "Ambiente"! Unlike sampled libraries, this virtual instrument doesn’t play pre-recorded sounds but generates authentic string performances in real-time, responding dynamically to your every nuance, just like a real violinist.
These instruments are NOT sample libraries. Unlike sampling, which uses recordings to replicate the sound of an instrument, physical modeling doesn’t generate a sound as such but creates the conditions for the system to create it according to an external input (like someone playing on a keyboard). This means every note is unique, and the instrument responds dynamically to your playing style.
With SWAM Violin, you can unleash your creativity across any musical style—from classical to modern, film scoring to microtonal music. Whether you're performing live or producing music on the go, SWAM Violin is your ultimate companion.
New Features and Key Benefits:
Room Simulator "Ambiente": Take advantage of advanced spatial control with the built-in Room Simulator "Ambiente," which allows you to position the instrument in a realistic acoustic space, interact dynamically with other SWAM instruments in the same virtual room, and create truly immersive performances. Additionally, the legacy Reverb, EQ, and Compressor effects are available for fine-tuning your sound.
Standalone and AUv3 Plugin: Perform in real time or integrate SWAM Violin seamlessly into your mobile production workflow.
Intuitive, Inclusive Interface: Designed for everyone, including blind and visually impaired users.
Expressive Control: Play with unmatched expressivity using the exclusive virtual bowing surface, MPE controllers, keyboards, breath controllers, or other MIDI devices.
Top Features at a Glance:
Access a library of presets, create your own, or import presets from the desktop version.
Customize every detail of your sound, including timbre, vibrato, and dynamics.
Micro-tune the instrument with the Pitch Manager, supporting devices like MAQAM for advanced tuning systems.
Add built-in effects like EQ, and Compressor.
Play with different violin bodies to explore unique tonal variations.
Use AUv3 to integrate with your mobile DAW (Logic, Cubasis, AUM) or apps like Camelot PRO for live performances.
Who is SWAM Violin for iOS Designed For?
Wind Controller Players: Looking for a mobile setup to perform live without needing a computer while still achieving an incredible sound.
Keyboard Players: Frustrated by the limited expressive capabilities of normal sample-based plugins? SWAM Violin unlocks the full range of expression.
Music Producers: Need a mobile setup to produce music from anywhere without carrying around expensive gear? SWAM Violin is the solution.
Musicians Seeking Expressivity: Looking for a virtual instrument that allows you to express the full range of your musicality easily on your iPhone or iPad.
IMPORTANT
To fully harness the expressive power of SWAM Violin, a controller capable of continuous expression (such as a breath controller, expression pedal, MPE device, or wind controller) is required. Just like a bow is essential for a real violinist, SWAM Violin needs expressive input for maximum realism.
With SWAM Violin for iOS, you have the freedom to create lifelike string performances on your iPhone or iPad. Redefine your music with unparalleled realism and expressive depth—anytime, anywhere.

SCAM USELESS

Do not buy! Im learning disabled and couldn’t figure out how to use this and they wouldn’t refund my money! Btw I requested the refund within an hour of purchasing.

Great sounds, crippled by greed

I use IOS in my live guitar rig. I use it, for example, to play the solo in I Will Survive, which has a descending string run that starts at G4 and goes down to E2. It’s barely more than 2 octaves, but SWAM Violin refuses to play anything below the the G2. Why? Because to get those notes you need to pay another $30, for a different module. The rationalization is that the violin can’t play notes that low, but this is *software*. They could make one instrument that covers the full range of my neck and sounds authentic at every point, perhaps even seamlessly transitioning between the timbre of the relevant instruments. It’s the same engine. No reason they can’t build meta instruments with bigger range than their physical counterparts, except that by breaking them up into small ranges of notes, they can excuse charging you more.

Works great

I use the swam violin and cello with my EWI 5000 as a midi controller. All I had to do for setup is select the EWI preset in the swam app,and it all worked. I have the audio output going to an audio interface and there is no detectable latency.

SWAM on the iPad!!!

HOOORRRAAAAYYYY I can’t believe there aren’t a thousand glowing reviews yet.. do people still not know about this company? It’s NOT a sample library of 40gb worth of pre-recorded samples - it’s a faithful recreation of the accounting qualities of instruments in a small 10-20mb shell which YOU perform as you see fit. And there’s nothing out there that sounds better, IMO. Go YouTube some of their vids and prepare to fall in love in amazement. You can use any decent midi controller with expression, but the real magic is with an MPE controller like the Roli seaboard. If you own one, you owe it to yourself to buy these. I personally own every single desktop instrument they offer, and I will steadily collect them here on iOS as well. Thank you Audio Modeling! You’re my faves <3
