Free Open-Source Expression Map Database - Cubby Articulations (Community Project)

Cubase
1

Hi everyone,

I’ve started an open-source project to solve a problem we all have: spending hours creating expression maps for libraries that thousands of other Cubase users also use.

Cubby Articulations is a free, community-driven GitHub repository where we can share and download expression maps.

GitHub: GitHub - willardjansen/cubby-articulations: Open-source articulation map database for composers - Expression maps for Cubase, Logic, Studio One and more

What’s Already Included (130+ Cubase Expression Maps)

  • Vienna Symphonic Library (70+) - Synchron Brass, Strings Pro, Elite Strings, Drums, BBO, Dimension Strings, Solo Strings, Woodwinds, Special Edition
  • Cinematic Studio Strings
  • Impact Soundworks - Bravura Scoring Brass, Rhapsody Orchestral Colors
  • Miroslav Philharmonik 2 (my own creation)

Also includes 55 Logic Pro Articulation Sets for BBC Symphony Orchestra and Abbey Road One.

All self-created or imported from open-source repos with proper attribution.

Looking for Contributions

If you’ve created expression maps for your own use, consider sharing them! We especially need:

  • Orchestral Tools Berlin Series
  • Spitfire Albion series
  • EastWest Hollywood Orchestra
  • Audio Imperia Nucleus
  • Dorico Expression Maps (none yet!)

Don’t know Git? Just open an issue, attach your files, and we’ll add them with credit to you.

Important: Only submit maps you created yourself or that are open-source. No commercial products (Art Conductor, etc.).
