  • Synchron series and MIR Pro

    Maybe a dumb question, but I feel I'm missing something... As far as I understand Synchron series (strings, in particular) are sampled not totally dry but with Synchron Stage "character".

    On product early page you say:

    Bring all Vienna Strings together at Synchron Stage

    While Synchron Strings I are recorded “in situ” with the natural ambience of the main hall of our scoring stage, you can place all of our other string libraries (from Solo Strings to Chamber, Orchestral, Appassionata and Dimension Strings) in the virtual version of this very hall by using Vienna MIR Pro with RoomPack 6 Synchron Stage Vienna. Create one unified sound easily by placing your existing instruments alongside the musicians who were recorded at Synchron Stage!

    So, question is: how will it perform in MIR Pro with different venues than Synchron Stage?

    Thanks,

    Luca


  • Hello Luca,

    in general ... in MIR-Venues you "can" use the Percussions successfully "CLOSE-recorded". For the Synchron Percussions it works very well - I tested it!

    But I'm not sure about the Strings. They are much larger than a drum of course. And I fear I understand now why Paul once said that the Synchron-Series are "not supposed to be used" in MIR(Venues).

    (That was exactly why I asked Dietz / Paul why the VSL decided to use a Mono-Mic for the Close Positions instead of a Stereo Mic. I "fear" that this maybe will not work with "large" Instruments in MIRVenues ... but we'll see.)
