I have been liking this one attached.  Still working on tweaks.  Both the rar and zip files are the same.

Here VSL Synchron V6.2 for LOGIC 10 (MAC) with Sympathetic Resonance between Keys :

Hi,

Fazioli presets. On special request by Mike. I'm not sure about this library. The basic sound is beautiful. But as mentioned here before there's absolutely no Punch. The Oemph is not there. I've been tinkering with the settings as Mike has put it. But I'm by no means an expert. I tried to find and release the beast. But doubt if its there at all. Never the less I included two preset patches. See if it helps.

Best,

Willem

I finally found the Best Velocity for my Steinway Hamburg that I love!!

I have Deeply researching it for a month and here is my method.

 

*PROBLEM

VSL Steinway on Default Velocity Curve, I kinda hate how it sound so hard.even thouogh I play pianissimo. Unlikely CFX, I kinda love CFX response feel.

 

*SOLUTION

1.I need to find out how many Layers they really have by using Fabfilter L-2

and I got 60 Layers (Silent key included)

2.Make it True Linear by X = Layer*100/60, Y = 100-(100/128*midi signal) 

3.I load the Velocity Preset on CFX and play. WOW it more response But Steinway's response feel still so hard.

4.I use MIDISHAPESHIFTER to curve the True Linear by reference from CFX.

5.I change The X to make it curve like SOLUTION 4.

 

at first try, I don't even trust that I made it so I leave from it for a moment to rest a bit,eat some snacks and play it again.the resource still unbelievable!!.

Hi,

Here Calculation .xls to fix Steinway D-274 fix, to use the most important sampled layers (50/60).

Hi,

I'm new to this forum and the VSL pianos. Thankyou for all the presets everyone has shared on here 😊

I have downloaded all the various CFX presets but don't know where the user presets folder is on my Windows 11 PC? Could someone help me find this please?

Thanks

Hi, Olivier!

Thank you for sharing your presets. Yesterday, I tested your previous patch and I found it very playable, so congrats for your excellent work. However, I find it extremely dry so I personally add a couple of surround mics to feel it more wet and nice; I will use it often. Thanks again.

What is this fix about?

Hey Stephen,

 

I'd love to try your preset. Unfortunately it doesn't load for me (it says "Could not load "Steinway 1"). Does anyone else have this problem?

 

 

 

Try this one...

Hi! Does anyone have a nice, natural player perspective for the Synchron Bosendorfer Imperial Full Library? I'm on a Kawai VPC1. Thanks!

Download "Imperial.vsynpreset"

This is a variation of the Player Surround to Stereo downmix. I've added a custom EQ to each mic along with a few other changes.

God Bless,

David

Thanks a lot David!

To whoever is interested, I'm sharing my patch for the Bosendorfer upright (full library).

As an owner of an actual Bosendorfer 130CL, I was never satified with default player presets in either the Standard or Full library. I thought they were just not making justice to the actual sound of the 130CL.

So, after spending many hours playing with all the mics and tweaking EQ, I came to a preset that I'm actually satisfied with. Enjoy!

Download "Bosendorfer 130CL Player Full.vsynpreset"

Wow, that's practically the opposite of my own preset, so it's a welcome addition! Thanks for posting!

Of course, mine was specifically designated for use in a reggae context, but I'm looking forward to trying this bright preset vs. my dark one.
