1.4 Getting Started 11

• Windows - Double-click on the String Studio VS icon located on your desktop or select

String Studio VS from the Start > All Programs > menu.

• Mac OS - Double-click on the String Studio VS icon located in the Applications folder.

Before you start exploring the program, take a moment to set up you audio and MIDI conﬁgu-

ration as explained below.

Audio and MIDI Conﬁguration

Audio and MIDI conﬁguration tools are available by clicking on the Audio Setup button located

in the lower left corner of the String Studio VS interface. The Audio Setup dialog ﬁrst allows you

to select an audio output device from those available on your computer. Multi-channel interfaces

will have their outputs listed as stereo pairs.

On Windows, the audio output list is organized by driver type. The device type is ﬁrst selected

from the Audio Device Type drop-down list. If you have ASIO drivers available, these should be

selected for optimum performance. The Conﬁgure Audio Device button allows you to open the

manufacturer’s setup program for your audio interface when available.

Once the audio input has been selected, you can then select a sampling rate and a buffer size

from those offered by your audio interface.

The list of available MIDI inputs appears at the bottom of the dialog. Click on the checkbox

corresponding to any of the inputs you wish to use.

1.4.2 Exploring the Factory Sounds

String Studio VS comes with a wide range of factory programs right out of the box which amounts

to a huge range of sounds before you have even turned a single knob. As you would expect, the

best way of coming to grips with the possibilities String Studio VS offers is simply to go through

the programs one at a time.

String Studio VS uses the notions of Banks and Programs to organize and classify sounds. A

program or preset is a stored set of parameters corresponding to a given sound. The programs are

grouped and organized in banks.

The name of the currently loaded bank and program are displayed at the top of the interface.

One navigates among the different banks and programs by using the arrows in each of the cor-

responding boxes or by opening the associated drop-down menu by clicking inside these boxes.

Banks and programs are managed using the Bank Manager which is revealed by clicking on the

Manage button appearing above the right-top corner of the Bank box. Playing programs and or-

ganizing them is pretty straightforward, please refer to Chapter 3 for a complete description of the

bank and program management operations.
