Advanced Virtual Instrument Merges Classical Sound with Modern Technology

Neo Erhu introduces a groundbreaking approach to the traditional Chinese violin through Music Domain Synthesis and Hybrid Modeling Technology. This virtual instrument expands the capabilities of the classical Erhu while maintaining its authentic character.
Extended Range and Enhanced Sound
The virtual instrument significantly expands the traditional Erhu's chromatic range from 30 keys to 42 keys, offering 3.5 usable octaves. This extension enables Neo Erhu to cover the ranges of both Zhong Hu and Jin Hu, effectively combining three traditional Chinese instruments in one virtual package.
Neo Erhu addresses the traditional instrument's limitations in higher octaves, delivering clearer and fuller tones where the acoustic version typically produces weaker sounds. The enhanced dynamic range spans from ppp to fff, providing more expressive possibilities for composers and performers.
Technology Integration
The instrument employs Music Domain Synthesis for sound generation, paired with Hybrid Modeling technology for musician interaction. This technological foundation allows for ongoing improvements while maintaining the instrument's traditional characteristics.
Versatile Performance Capabilities
Musicians can seamlessly switch between Erhu, Zhong Hu, and Jin Hu techniques through preset selections, preserving compatibility with traditional playing styles while offering new creative possibilities.
