SWAM Cello Section for iOS: The Next-Level String Section Experience
SWAM Cello Section for iOS brings the power of Physical Modeling technology to your mobile device, allowing you to create realistic, expressive, and fully customizable cello section performances on the go. Whether you’re a composer, producer, or live performer, this revolutionary app delivers unmatched realism, efficiency, and flexibility in a lightweight and intuitive package.
Unlike traditional sample libraries, SWAM Cello Section doesn’t rely on pre-recorded articulations. Instead, it generates the sound in real time, reacting dynamically to your playing style, whether you're working in classical, cinematic, jazz, or modern electronic music.
Why Choose SWAM Cello Section for iOS?
Unparalleled Realism – Each cello section is fully controllable in terms of expression, vibrato, bow pressure, bow position, tremolo, and more. No need to switch between different articulations—just play and shape the sound in real time.
Enhanced Efficiency – No more endless searching for the right articulation or sample. With SWAM Cello Section, you have immediate access to every possible playing technique at your fingertips.
Faster Workflow – Control velocity, expression, and phrasing seamlessly while switching effortlessly between staccato, legato, spiccato, or pizzicato just by playing.
Smart Room Simulator “Ambiente” – The built-in room simulator ensures that all cello sections in your mix interact naturally, allowing for a centralized UI to position every section in a shared acoustic space without tweaking each plugin separately.
Top Features at a Glance
Individual Section Control – Adjust the expressivity of each cello section independently, fine-tuning vibrato, bowing techniques, dynamics, and more.
Standalone & AUv3 Plugin – Use SWAM Cello Section as a standalone app for real-time performances or integrate it as an AUv3 plugin in your favorite DAW.
Customizable Sound & Playability – Personalize the tone, resonance, and bowing articulation to match any genre or style.
MIDI & MPE Compatibility – Play expressively with MIDI controllers, MPE devices, wind controllers, or even directly from your iOS device’s touchscreen.
Seamless Integration with DAWs – Perfect for mobile music production, SWAM Cello Section works effortlessly in Logic Pro for iPad, Cubasis, AUM, GarageBand, Camelot Pro and more.
Lightweight & Powerful – Thanks to state-of-the-art Physical Modeling technology, you get a realistic and highly responsive string section without the need for massive sample libraries.
Who is SWAM Cello Section for iOS Designed For?
Film & Game Composers – Achieve lifelike, expressive cello section performances directly from your iPad or iPhone.
Music Producers – Use real-time expressivity to shape your sound instantly, without limitations.
Live Performers – Integrate SWAM Cello Section into your live setup for dynamic, high-quality string section performances on the go.

Important Notes
For the best experience, we recommend using a device with an Apple Silicon chip (M1, M2, M3, or later) for optimal responsiveness and real-time performance.
Like the solo SWAM Strings instruments, SWAM Cello Section is monophonic, as it accurately replicates real bowed string instruments, allowing only double stops where realistic fingerings permit.
To fully explore the expressive power of SWAM Cello Section, a MIDI controller capable of continuous expression (such as an MPE device, breath controller, or expression pedal) is recommended.
Take your string section to the next level with SWAM Cello Section for iOS and redefine the way you create, perform, and produce music—anytime, anywhere.
I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Everything is updated. In AUM the app loads fine into the channel you load it into, but when you try to open the app in AUM it crashes and you get the message 'Audio Unit plugin invalidated'. Since I have all the SWAM apps which I love, I tried another and another and another. I am getting the same problem with all of my SWAM apps now. 99% of the time I use my SWAM apps on my iPad but I currently only have access to my phone so I don't know if this is an issue with the iPad also. It does play and sounds great in other DAWs ive tried it in but again I am mostly an AUM user. It could be on the AUM side but ive never had an issue with SWAM apps in AUM before. Any help would be appreciated. Keep up the great work!
