    VSL has a special offer every month, but the student offer is sometimes longer (like last year). I doubt there's any connection between the timing of special offers and other announcements.

    It clearly took a vast amount of work to get Dimension Strings finished, and that only happened a few weeks ago, so I wouldn't hold my breath :) I would love to be wrong though....

    Beside the plan to extend the DimBrass and to create a Dimension Strings muted Package ... I KNOW ... that they're working on ...

    a) exotic Instruments and

    b) additional articulations for some existing Packages ...

    ... since 4 years!!!

    BUT NO WORD about the Person WHO told me ... I'm out of this thread now!

    Extensions to the established libraries sound like a great idea.

    As far as Dimension Strings are concerned, I'd prefer added articulations or an expansion to the current version. Imagine how great DS would be with all the articulations of Solo Strings... OTOH the opportunity to mix muted strings with the current DS library could be interesting [:)]

    My whishes are not that unusual except one point surprisingly not yet mentioned:

    - More Velocity-Layers [Y]

    - muted Dim-Strings + Dim-Brass [Y]

    - Choir and Soloists in VSL-Quality with Wordbuilder [:D]

    (- Baroque-instruments would be of some interesting to)

    Adding more velocity layers to existing content would be virtually impsible.

    Dorico, Notion, Sibelius, StudioOne, Cubase, Staffpad VE Pro, Synchon, VI, Kontakt Win11 x64, 64GB RAM, Focusrite Scarlett 18i20, August Forster 190

    So true.  Also I don't think it's entirely necessary.  Most other libraries with multiple layers have all kinds of tricky crossfades and phasing issues.  It's a lot simpler with VSL where there's only one small range you have to look out for.

    Hi Again,

    Well .... It is November, 2014   .

    What's happening ?  Nothing New from VSL so far.  I am guessing the development team of VSL is working hard on surprising, and delighting us with new products in the near future.   Hehe... I am hoping they are not taking a year long vacation [;)]   

    Looking forward to some new, and exciting VSL products... Whenever they materialize. 

    Cheers,

    Haha.. Well, I have been feeling optimistic all year long, every new end of month, hoping something new, and exciting will be announced by VSL, but as you have seen, nothing new, and exciting has happened so far, except for various discount offers. 

    I'm going to get optimistic again once we enter Jan.  2015  [:)]

    Unless VSL Decides that Dec. is the right time for excitement !  (We shall see). 

    Cheers,

    Is there even any reason to believe that VSL have something ready to announce?

    And the answer is Solo Voices :)

    [Dreaming]

    Very nice, if they manage to get a decent wordbuilder and than also use this technology and add some more to the VSL choir ....

    [:O]

    [/Dreaming]

    Looking forward to hear the first demos :)

    This is definitly very exciting news.

    I do hope to, that they manage to provide a decent wordbuilder.

    Worbuilding Vocals in VSL-Quality is definitly what would be worth waiting for.

    best

    It is not only worth waiting for, it also means that i really need to think about increasing of my budget :)

    I would have found another discount more exciting. [:P]

    Great and very exciting news indeed. .....I have doubts about wordbuilder...VSL is not doing "synthy" thing unless they trully found the solution.... 

    Maybe they did...

     Exciting news indeed. Would love to hear about a Christmas discount too. [A]

    I'm wondering if this is a solo collection or a dimension product. 1 player or many players for each position?

    Solo voices, that doesn't sound like  it was made with the dimension approach. 

    But I'm still curious to ear this.
