Albion ONE Strings full (Octave) legato Patch vs CS. Is there a difference?

Five18Studios · February 15

Can anyone hear a difference between the "Strings Full (Octave) Legato patch and the CS version? Is that supposed to be Con Sord? They sound identical unless Im crazy...

Even the preview in Komplete Kontrol sounds identical

On further investigation, it's appears that MOST of the (Octave) Legato "CS" patches are identical to the non CS counterpart. Why are there duplicate patches? Are they supposed to sound muted? They are identical unless I'm (hopefully) missing something.

Legacy patches seem normal though.

CS means "con sordino" or with a mute. It supposed to be a muted sound, with a different timbre. I believe that Albion One Legato CS has real recordings, so or yours ears are wrong or your lib have an error.

So this are the original sounds right out of the box. I played something using the legato strings first followed by the Legato CS strings. You can tell that there's this subtle difference where the sound is a bit thinner. The difference should only be this much and shouldn't be drastic. However if you can't notice them, maybe trying sending something here with your two patches. - Or maybe you'll need some headphones to tell the difference
