SWAM Violin Section for iOS: The Next-Level String Section Experience
SWAM Violin Section for iOS brings the power of Physical Modeling technology to your mobile device, allowing you to create realistic, expressive, and fully customizable violin 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 Violin 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 Violin Section for iOS?

Enhanced Efficiency – No more endless searching for the right articulation or sample. With SWAM Violin 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.

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 Violin 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 Violin 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 Violin Section for iOS and redefine the way you create, perform, and produce music—anytime, anywhere!
This is an outstanding problem… Maybe a few bugs? Bought they bundle, had trouble opening individual apps… Deleted, and wen to reinstall. “Download” option button was not there; the blacked out word “purchased” was there. I tried to unload them separately. It showed the price, and gave me the download for free (already paid for the bundle). All work now (fingers crossed!). I’d give it a five star+ rating if there weren’t any issues…That aside, I think you’d be crazy if you didn’t buy the bundle and save money! Thanks Audio Modeling for bringing the string sections to iPad…
