Emotional Velocity System

Amazing expression with our new development, Emotional Velocity. Usually software instrument’s velocity works as volume control. But actually, Shakuhachi does not have a big wide dynamic range, and there are more important expression than level control for real Shakuhachi. It’s difficult to show with piano keyboards before.

Shakuhachi Premier G express that’s typical Shakuhachi expression with emotional velocity system. You don’t need any complicated control with a lot of Midi CC#. Just play, and just enjoy the sounds of professional Shakuhachi player.
