  • placement on soundstage

    I read this in the documentation of the Vienna Choir (synchronized)

    Using the Synchron Player’s reverberation and placement presets you can put each ensemble at its perfect spot in the large hall of our own scoring stage,

    and thought I could put e.g. sopranos on the left and tenors on the right in one instance of the synchron player, but I do not see how to do this. Did I misunderstand or is there something I am missing about the Synchron player?

    Thanks for helping out, cheers, Bob.


  • Hi! If you load the "Full Choir" preset, it is one signal, and the impulse response represents the choir as a whole and is centered. If you want to work with multiple sections and adjust them individually, load four tracks (SATB). You can also work with the Female Choir + Male Choir patches, which utilize separate signal channels.

  • Hello Andreas,

    Thank you very much for getting back to me on this. I am afraid I am still somewhat in the dark as to what to do. How do you load 4 tracks, are you referring to my sequencer or to the Synchron player? I cannot find any tracks in the Synchron player. From the enclosed picture I see that you have a dimension, stack, with Soprano and Alto. Can I get a similar setting with SATB? How do you add them? As to the patches, I don't know how to bring them into play. Sorry for being so bone-headed!

    Cheers, Bob.

    Hi Bob,

    The Synchron Player is designed to load one instrument per instance. So, yes - the idea is to create multiple instrument tracks in your sequencer and load multiple Synchron Players.

    As for your other question: I HIGHLY recommend you go with two tracks to achieve what you want. You would have to build such a preset yourself from scratch.

    The result is the same, but the effort would be immense - and a lot can go wrong unless you understand all aspects of the player and how presets are built.

    Best,
    Andreas
