  • Vienna Special Edition include Horizon Epic Horn (full lib)?

    Greetings.

    1) Does Vienna Special Edition Extended Version include full library of Horizon Epic horn? (that means if I buy vienna special edition, that i don't need to buy horizon epic horn as it's included in vienna special edition already)?

    2) How to check shipping fee when placing an order?

    Thanks in advance.

  • 1.) Looking at the articulation lists would have answered this one pretty quickly:

    Vienna SE - Horn ens. (8 players):
    Staccato (2 alternations, 3 vel. layer)
    Sustained (3 vel. layer)
    Sforzato (1 vel. layer)
    Legato (2 vel. layer)

    Horizon Epic Horns (up to 4 vel. layers for most):
    Staccato, portato 0.3 and 0.5 sec. in two variations, sustained, sustained, "blared", and flutter tonguing with constant dynamics and crescendo.
    Medium crescendo and diminuendo with 2, 3, and 5 sec. tone length, fortepiano, sforzando, sforzatissimo, and crescendo-diminuendo with 4 sec.
    Half and whole tone trills, and minor and major chords.
    Slow and fast piano and forte legato, and normal and fast performance glissandos.
    Legato repetitions with 5 repetition layers, 4ths at 50 BPM, mezzopiano and forte, crescendo and diminuendo.
    Portato repetitions with 9 repetition layers, 8ths at 92 BPM, piano; and 90 BPM, forte, crescendo and diminuendo.
    Staccato repetitions with 9 repetition layers, 16ths at 90 BPM, piano; and 88 BPM, forte, crescendo and diminuendo.
    Staccato with 9 repetitions, 16ths from 140 to 180 BPM.
    1, 2, and 3 upbeats, 16ths at speeds from 80 to 160 BPM.
    Glissandos, up and down, from 4th to octave.


    2.) If the shop doesn't display (it should on a purchase, you selected a region before), check back with the distributor, that's Best Service for Europe, Time+Space for UK, and ILIO in the US. Complete list here: http://www.vsl.co.at/en-us/65/75/25.vsl
