For those fed up with the limitations of using sampled musical lines and phrases, Liquid Saxophone - Liquid Instrument Series Volume 1 from Ueberschall provides a unique approach to creating a virtual instrument. Utilizing technology from Celemony's Melodyne, parameters such as single note pitches, formants, note lengths, scales, tempo, start and endings can now be edited easily and directly to suit any arrangement.

Liquid Instrument Series (L.I.S.) technology offers a whole new array of features to control and redo sampled material in real-time. Quick and simple access makes it seem like the studio musician is right there, responding instantly to the desire for a change in expression or phrasing, all the while the high-quality sound source is unchanged even after intense processing.

This combination of first-class samples with Melodyne technology allow for creating countless variations, from simple licks and phrases to complete solo lines. No additional effects such as compression or any other processors have been used in this series to ensure the purest results possible.

Q: 4. Can the center column be removed and inverted like the traveler models? I know it can be removed and just the base reinstalled for low shots. But I may wish to shoot with the camera suspended beneath the legs at some point. Thanks in advance.

A: Yes this is easy to do. There is a threaded end cap with the hook to hold a weight on the bottom of the center column. This is removed and the column comes completely out once you loosen the locking collar. It can be reversed and locked in place using the same locking collar. There is a guide pin which prevent rotation of the column. Rotation of your camera is accomplished with the head you choose. I have the small ball head and this has worked well. The entire combination is very light and still rigid and works well for travel.
