    Yeah! Thank you Sam!
    I'll test it soon.
    Though a SE user, I'm sure the basic shall work the same.

    To everyone who's commented and downloaded:

    I'm glad you find these files useful!  REATICULATE makes complicated programming with VSL (and any VST, really) in REAPER so damn easy.  

    Over the next week or so, I will be going through, cleaning up, and updating these files.  I've a few new libraries to add (like SYN-zed Solo Strings) and some changes to how the articulations are organized in the presets based on new updates to Reaticulate and personal tweaks I've made over months of use.  I'll post the updates to this thread and the SYN forum as well when I've finished!

    I've finished re-doing and expanding the presets and banks.  As such, I've updated the original post.  Scroll up and take a look!

    You're the Master! Thank You for making Reaper and Synchron-ized libraries easier to use. I'm kind of new to Reaper (was using Logic Pro before) and just downloaded Synchron-ized Special Edition 1. Are you planning of also developing this managment for the mentioned library in the near future? If not, where can I learn how to do it? I would obviously share it with the community! Thanks in advance!

    You're too kind šŸŗ

    I would totally make articulation banks for the SYN-zed Special Editions, but I don't have them (I have some of the VI versions) and I have no justifiable reason to spend money on them.

    That said, thank you for asking me about this because it reminded me of something on my to-do list: to create a brief tutorial on my website about making custom REATICULATE banks.  So...gimme a few days (at most) and I'll post the link here for you (and anyone else interested) when it's ready!  Also, if you don't want to wait that long, the necessary (albeit slightly...opaque...) information on making custom banks is available on the Reaticulate website itself.

    (P.S. If you're new to REAPER, you may not be aware of the SWS extension: https://www.sws-extension.org/.  These are amazing add-ons (and free) and will make REAPER all kinds of amazing.)

    Did anyone already create banks for Synchronized Woodwinds?

    Not to my knowledge.  If anyone does, I do hope they share!

    Speaking of which, in case you (or anyone else) wasn't aware, there's a repository for user-created Reaticulate banks here: https://github.com/jtackaberry/reaticulate/tree/master/userbanks

    I'm planning on uploading these to that as soon as my brain can un-scatter itself enough to remember to do so šŸ˜Š

    Hello,

    I've just uploaded 2 reabanks for the complete Special Edition, volumes 1, 2, 1 plus, 2 plus and 6.

    Hope this can help users of Reaper with VSL SYN-zed SE.

    This is here : https://github.com/jtackaberry/reaticulate/issues/150

    Enjoy !

    Just a huge THANK YOU to Seventh Sam and anyone else who has contributed to the Reaticulate development and documentation. I have just got this up and running this morning, with just one instrument so far, and it works well. Gosh there are a lot of hoops to jump through! šŸ˜…

    I just need to decide on whether to stick with the already created articulation matrices that SS has created or create my own... Anyway this should hopefully speed up my workflow - I was using Sibelius previously with the VSL soundsets and although that system works well it's pretty laborious.
