I ordered another microphone along with a dual mic mount, and I've been reading about NOS stereo recording technique. After the new gear arrives I'm going to try sampling the clarinet. If it turns out suitable, I do know people who play several other instruments, so I might try enlisting their help in contributing.
Big Cat, I was considering making sfz files, but over the last week I've been pondering about some of the annoyances of the sfz format and thinking about developing a sample playback plugin with a different file format. It's a long and arduous tale, but the short is that I dreamed up what I wanted in an ideal virtual instruments tool, and eventually realized that somebody had already developed it and called it HISE. Do you know much about HISE? It seems like if we want to use these samples to make free virtual instruments, it could give us a way to avoid forcing people to use Kontakt, and not have to mess around with sfz format.
