Virtual violin offered for free to add some rhythm to your tunes. Any of these will give you the realistic emotion of the violin. We put together this list of free and paid plugins because we have also had to search. What we found was that the options for violin VST plugins were overwhelming. It helps when you can find exactly what you need and get back to work. A violin can make your recording stand out.

Sometimes when I'm quick on my feet, I can get a quick sample to turn into an instrument. This was the case one night this summer at a local open mic night. I was waiting my turn to play a short set, when a band called The Crick went on. They're a nice folk music duo, male and female vocals, guitar and violin. After they finished playing, I asked the violinist, Nicole, if I could record her playing for a couple seconds. I'm not sure she knew what this strange dude was asking of her, but she played a bit. I recorded it with my iPhone microphone and deliberately picked up all the background noise in the bar.

From there, I chopped the sample up and found a few solid notes I could use. I dropped those into Ableton's Sampler and made the instrument I present to you now. I put some useful Macro knobs for controls like Attack and Release, Filters and Filter Envelops. I also made an exact duplicate of the instrument, put it on a separate chain and dropped it down an octave. This helps thicken out the somewhat thin iPhone recording. You can hear the noise in the background of each sample, people talking, glasses clanking. It's similar to the technique I used on the Mom's Piano instrument.

One last thing that helps add diversity and character to the instrument.. Since I had samples of a couple notes around the same range, I set the instrument up in a way that each time you play a single note, you get a different sample at random. For example, if you were to hit C3 repeatedly, you will randomly trigger a different sample each time. I accomplished this by creating a random LFO set to the Sample Selector. It turns out to be a great way to mimic real life playing, because an instrumentalist will never play the same note exactly the same way.
