DVZ®

What is DVZ?

DVZ® refers to Audio Impressions’ patented groundbreaking Divisi technology that gives you the real-world, real-time, section balances that previously have only been possible with live musicians. DVZ functions on multiple levels. At the highest Orchestrator level, DVZ I handles distribution of the indivdual notes of a chord to entire sections of instruments. Within a given section, DVZ II controls the allocation of multiple instruments to the individual notes handled by that section. And for string instruments, DVZ III also handles allocation of the individual strings to the particular notes played by each instrument. All this occurs seamlessly and automatically in real time.

Automatic Allocation of Instruments to Notes Played Optimizes the Sound Power and Harmonic Structure

With conventional libraries, each added note increases the number of total players, and increases the sound level; the harmonic structure also "thickens" and the sound becomes muddy and over-modulated. With DVZ powered libraries the number of players and the sound level remain constant no matter how many notes are in the chord, just as occurs with live players.

The same kind of logic used to allocate played notes amongst active instruments (players) is also applied to allocating played notes amongst sections. For example, a chord can be orchestrated in real time, distributing its notes across the first and second violins, violas, celli and basses.

The important point is that you are able to produce realistic-sounding compositions. Audio Impressions’ Patented DVZ technology maintains a natural orchestral balance. Regardless of how few or many notes you play, the orchestral balance will always be maintained and the sounds will remain clear and distinct.
