Cadenza Viola by Sound Magic features an Italian handmade viola captured with exceptional clarity and purity. The instrument's natural tone is preserved using high-end recording equipment, including the SSL 9000 series console and vintage Neumann microphones, ensuring each note is represented with vivid detail and without coloration. This creates a transparent sound palette that faithfully reflects the authentic character of the viola.

Building on advanced modeling technology, Cadenza Viola offers musicians enhanced control with its expanded Modeling Legato system. This allows smooth transitions and expressive articulation that go beyond traditional sampled legato, supporting a wide range of techniques and patches. The Hybrid Vibrato and Tremolo features provide dynamic, real-time modulation options, enabling users to fade in vibrato or adjust tremolo speed seamlessly for a more natural and expressive performance.

Designed for both studio and live use, Cadenza Viola incorporates a Performance Keyswitch System that allows all playing techniques to be executed on a single track without compromising quality. Its sound-shaping capabilities include a five-band parametric EQ and adjustable harmonic partials, offering flexible timbre control. Additionally, the Scala tuning system lets users fine-tune each note, providing a high level of customization and sonic precision.
