  • Hello everybody, 

    There will be more demos, and as usual, our Early Bird Offer will not expire until the release of Synchron Strings I. 

    And of course there will be a reminder email to announce the actualy release of Synchron Strings I. 

    Also, thanks for your patience, those last days and weeks are essential for such a big step, especially with a brand-new software. I actually can't wait to show you more, but we're simply not there yet.

    Have a great weekend!

    Paul & the VSL Team

  • Hi Paul,

     

    Best Wishes to the VSL development team, I'm sure the new Synchron Libraries will be an amazing success, and Thanks for updating us on Synchron Strings I status. 

     I  Pre-Purchased  Synchron Strings I (Full Version),  I was wondering if it would it be possible to have an option to download the (Standard) version if that was needed to conserve drive space on a computer ? or am I restricted to only have access to the (Full version) ?  Basically, does the License for the Full verison give me the option to download the (Standard) version if the need arises. 

    Thanks, 

    Muziksculp 


  • Hi, 

    The Sample Content for the Standard and Extended Libraries for the Synchron Series is available separately, also in separate downloads. 

    Best, 
    Paul

    Hi Paul

    Here some more attempts to produce "unanswered questions" 😉 ( 404 Alerts)

    Are you (VSL) already working on Synchron Strings II ?

    Are you (VSL) already working on Synchron Brass and Synchron Woodwinfs ?

    Will there be any Synchron Voices "once upon a time" ?

    Will there be Synchon Solostrings ?

    Will there be any more Silent-Stage-Libraries to come ?

    any answer? ... perhaps just to surprise me 😛

    Hi fahl5, 

    You need a magic ball or a time machine. If you find either one of each that is working, let me know 😎

    Here's what I can tell you: We are working on Synchron Strings I. Like crazy. 

    Best, 
    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Thanks for the feedback.  

    So just to confirm that I understand your reply, this means I have the option to download the Starndard version, even though I purchased the Full version.  

    That's very good.

    Cheeers,

  • Hi muziksculp, 

    Correct.

    Excellent 👍

    Thanks.

    Take Synchron Percussions I as an example: What you get is good, but compared to former times the Instruments are less. To reach the same amount of Instruments for all Sections will take years and years and years ... (if you see how long it took to finish the first both products, I would not hold my breath here.)

    Regarding to Solo Instruments I see the difficulty of the "right placement in the Hall for everybody". Where would this perfect place be for Solo Strings or a Piano?

    For the FIlm-Orgel I guess there will be a bigger investment necessary. If I am not wrong the Outputs are placed left and right to the big screen. For us it means that that the sound would come only from the left side.

    I hope that there will be "surprises" too. In a hall like this "Epic-Brass-Sections" might have a really big epic sound. Just emagine that there would not only be recordings for Epic Horns this time, but also for Epic Wagner Tubas (8 Players). We all know their Power-Sound from Dimension Brass 2. That would be a Killer!

    Oh there are competitors who solved that "problem" with the concept of "First Chair" Strings for instance. With that concept the Solistic Piano will presumably be located in right in the middle in front of the Orchestra like the Pianosoloist in a pianoconcerto. (However I do not think that compared to complete the sections of a Synchron-Orchestra a Synchron-Piano would have any priority in the VSL-Pipeline)


  •  

    Yes.

    less = less "by number of instruments".

    There is of course "more" inside a Percussion-Section.

  • OK, but even the Synchron Percussion is like the Synchron Strings just a Synchron Percussion I

    To provide the same material so much deeper sampled is unevitably much work to do, give them "a little" time to complete, what actually just started.

    I am sure there will be tons of demos when the product is released😐


  • Pulled the Preorder trigger before the November x release. Looking forward to this and the new player.


  • Will vsl let us know when the preorder window is about to close? I don't get paid for 2 weeks so can't preorder till then :(

    Yes they have stated somewhere (I think in this thread actually) that they will let us know.


  • Hello,

    I would like to echo what others have said. I am interested in this library, but am not prepared to pre-order unless I can hear some audio demos of the Synchron Strings alone - with no other instruments masking them. Only then will I be able to hear whether this is superior to what I already have (VSL and others).

    I do hope the demos will appear before the Early Bird offer expires.

     

    Thank you,

    Darren

    In general dynamic relations can have many variables - but the variables in this case are pretty cleanly defined, and from where I'm watching it seems to be by design.  The instruments are being recorded in position in the same hall - based on the diagrams it seems the plan is very much to fill out the whole orchestra with their seating intact in relation to each other.  The array of microphones will be in the same position for all, and I would assume they will be the very same microphones each time.  Based on this setup the relations in dynamics between layers and between different instruments (including the effect relative distance plays) is very much measureable, and I would say extremely relevant.

    I agree with you completely. However, VSL's position was that natural-dynamics isn't even a sensible notion, and that people who even entertain the concept are irrational people lacking sense. When I want more insults and science-denial from developers, I'll consider buying these new strings.
