    [ Which microphoneposition(s) did you used?



    It is RoomMix. Yes, you are right - it was a quick night sketch 😊 In my opinion, additional layered divizi strings needed for escape "one big violin playing" feeling. (VSL DS or LASS or divizi mics from EW HS) For detailed test I need to setup a full template with all CC/keyswitches tuned, so, may be I will waiting for SY Player for it.

    V ad im, nice demo. It showed something of the very good qualities of Synchron Strings 1, absolutely. And a nice piece also. Thank you. And something that surprises me: despite the fact that there is no layering in it, that "big one violin" feeling is not so present in my ears here as it was at earlier demos of string libraries of VSL. Nice to hear that...

    Hi,

    We have just uploaded a new version of the Synchron Basses Standard Library (V2). 

    To avoid unnecessary traffic: You DO NOT need to download this new version if you have already downloaded v1 and applied the quick Library Update. 

    Hope you all enjoyed your holidays!

    Best, 
    Paul

    To be clear, on Dec 28-30th I downloaded and installed

       Synchron Strings I (Basses) V2 - Stereo Library Download

    and the 11 others.

    Was the install successful if, in my Directory Manager, I'm left with four red entries?

    /Volumes/HD Barracuda 2 TB/VSL Library on Barracuda/B02_SY-Strings-1_Basses_Multi_v1
    /Volumes/HD Barracuda 2 TB/VSL Library on Barracuda/B02_SY-Strings-1_Basses_Stereo_v2
    /Volumes/HD Barracuda 2 TB/VSL Library on Barracuda/B02_SY-Strings-1_Strings_Multi_v1
    /Volumes/HD Barracuda 2 TB/VSL Library on Barracuda/B02_SY-Strings-1_Strings_Stereo_v1

    Do I just "Remove" them?

    Hi Folks,

    after the Hijacker- experience it is time to get back to Paul (aka „the closer“ ;D) and a new video dealing with Legato-Options.

    Thanks Paul!

    Yay, new video and function - thanks! Although, I must add, you could just say that you are still developing new functions for VI. Some threads could have been still open with that piece of information...

    But again, thank you for video. Will check how this blur works.

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

    Hi Paul I've just recorded this with Synchron Strings, as you can ear there is a little "bizzare" sound on a repetition of a note spic (Alto mesure 4, 4th beat), are they any solution for me to correct it ?

    listen on soundcloud

    Thanks,

    best regard to the Team.

    I think this library sounds very good. Good luck to all the chaps at VSL. I just had quite a few old tracks I did some time ago using predominantly VSL App strings ect on the BBC, I was happy to see, and I think this library will take writers like me onto another sound quality level when the VSL Sync player gets sorted.

     

    Cheers.

    It is great to hear from the brilliant composer PaulR.  I agree with that on the Synchron Strings which are going to be a great success and wish VSL the best with the awesome new library.

    Thank you Paul the Case 234585 can be closed. You resolved it.

    The more I work with Synchron Strings, the more I understand that it is a big evolution in VSL, it realy sounds amazing.

    Best regards to the best team.

    We have really learned our lesson about announcements with Synchron Strings I, so this is just my personal estimation and NOT binding.

    (...)

    2) I will be showing the Synchron Player at NAMM Show, and there should be videos available before that. Can't give you a release date just yet. 

    (...)

     

    Hey Paul

    Despite your disclaimers (which I fully can understand). Any news regarding Synchron player? (Videos, Potential Release Date, ...)

    Best regards

    HI Gabriel, 

    I'm afraid I won't get to the videos before NAMM, but I will show the player at NAMM for sure. 

    Still no release date there, I'm afraid. We want this player to be stable like a rock, even in v 1.0.

    Best, 
    Paul

    Hello to all forum members and to Paul and VSL team.

    I bought Sync Strings Early Bird offer and am trying to explore and learn it. This is my first contact to Vienna Instrument Player so it is not very easy for me. FIrst of all congratulations, the library is not exagerated, although comapring to some for example Spitfire Strings sound less colorfoul it could be better for more types of music, and it could be good that Synchron Strings  do not have its dark colour and style.

    I find moderately difficult to use, I hope the new player will come very soon. There is also a lot of playing with Legato Blur (I enjoy it) or velocity x-fade (this I find not so intuitive) but you can achieve a lot of interesting things here. I am the one who while composing music hates programming.

    1. Will the new Vienna Synchron Strings Controller come soon  (NAMM is in a few days and will it be more intuitive musical way to use it?

    2. While recording music I have to use sometimes the button OFF for Velocity Fade while playing (sometiemes I want to use a Breath controller, sometimes not) How can I automate this button or what is the idea of using it? Automate but please keep in mind I want to use VEP software.

     

    Thank you

    "How can I automate this button...."

    Three ways. 1. In Basic View, right-click on the button itselt. It'll blink. Move any connected controller, and it will automatically be assigned to that CC

    2. In Advanced View, select the "Ctrl Map" tab, then select "VelXF On/OFF" and under source, click the drop-down menu and select a CC.

    3. Much like 1, in Advanced View, select the "Ctrl Map" tab, then select "VelXF On/OFF,"  click "Learn," and move the controller you want to assign. 

    If you select a continuous controller, any value above 64 turns the button on, and under 64 turns it off. 

    The button acts as a kind of clutch to disengage Velocity Crossfade, as musically needed. 

    Yes, there is an investment of time with VSL products. I've been using them for fifteen years or so, and I still need to review the manual now and then. A paid tutorial site called Groove3 has two multi-episode tutorials.

    Hello, Hubert! Nice piece, though, I didn’t hear the problem you described. My question, though .... Can you load the first violins, second violins etc in separate instances of VI Pro, or, is everything in one file, spread across the keyboard, like in Epic Orchestra? The demo videos seem to have everything layered together. I hope my question is clear.
