PLAY Advanced Sample Engine
PLAY is a 64-bit** (with 32-bit compatibility) Advanced Sample Engine with built-in Network Control* (plug-in or standalone). PLAY is Included with all new EastWest/Quantum Leap Virtual (software) Instruments. Updates for older software will be released as it is completed.
-Multiple Mic Positions
-All instruments were sampled with three different mic positions, allowing you to mix together any
combination of mics using the interface for the ultimate in real-time tone and ambiance control. This
feature enables users to customize the sound of the orchestra to their own requirements.
-Please note: while most computers suitable for running professional music software will run one of the mic
positions (what you typically get with other orchestra libraries), you may need a more advanced system to
have all options available.
-Mic Mixer
-Control all mic positions for the orchestra, choirs, pianos, and other instruments with multiple mic
positions with the built-in mic mixer
-Now taken a step further, do it right in the patch
-Load, unload, adjust, pan, mute mic positions as you wish
-Load MORE thanks to 64-bit support**
-64-bit support** allows you to load many more instruments and voices, limited only by your system
RAM (32-bit support is included also)
-While most high-end computers will support 16Gb, a very small set of high-performance enterprise
computers (with Microsoft Vista Ultimate) can already use 128Gb of RAM. As hardware develops, the
theoretical limit is 17,179,869,184 gigabytes = 16 exabytes, or 17 billion gigabytes!

controlled from your host computer
