Studio Instruments in Logic Pro for iPad

The studio instruments are high-quality multisampled brass and string players that offer a collection of solo and grouped instrument presets. See Studio Horns and Studio Strings.

If you're new to using plug-ins see Intro to plug-ins.

Each studio instrument preset provides a range of articulations that enable you to create expressive, nuanced performances and recordings. Some articulation features, such as polyphonic true legato, apply to all presets, whereas some articulation features are specific to certain instruments.

Articulations are accessed from the Articulation pop-up menu in the plug-in menu bar. Articulations can be remotely switched while performing or recording, enabling you to add a fall or trill to a solo saxophone part, or to instantly switch between a bowed or staccato string section, for example.

When you play a chord while using an ensemble or section instrument, Studio Horns and Studio Strings provide an automatic voice split feature that can help you to create balanced, natural-sounding arrangements. For example, automatic voice splitting can allocate voices (notes in the chord) to different players, based on what instrument group is best suited to a particular note range. You can also directly access and play individual instruments within sections. See Studio instruments section MIDI channels.
