Hello Andrew, 

I'll get straight to your questions: 

1) Yes, it is prudent, if you like to experiment with room sound a lot. 

2) Synchron Player gets very good feedback from existing users, and of course we are improving functionality and performance in the course of the first weeks. 

VE PRO is a totally different program. If you are experiencing troubles with the current 6.0.17011, please contact us with more details. 

Best, 
Paul

Paul, thanks for your quick and to the point reply.

I did install the most current version of VEPro. Things are much better this time around. 

Really looking forward to sinking my teeth into this library. The Overview video was well done particularly in differentiating the product from other similar ones on the market.

Thanks to the team who worked on this.

Cheers,
Andrew

Will future FX ensembles (winds, brass) be co-ordinated to work simultaneously and in conjunction with the String FX?

Synchron Player is awesome -- I installed it last night and gave it a quick spin. I think this new interface is going to make it a lot easier to quickly learn the Synchron way, possibilities with mic down-mixes, etc.

I'm still on the fence about upgrading to the full package for FX Strings. Would it make any sense to do that, if not also upgrading regular Strings to the full package/ My apologies if the intended workflow of these two libraries within the same project or part, has already been covered.

Can you use MIRx with Synchron FX Strings for stage placement?

Or is this uneccessary with the Sychron Player approach?

Hi hodshonf, 

The whole idea of the Synchron Series is to provide multiple mics to recreate the ambience of the room, instead of MIR PRO.  So you won't need MIR PRO für Synchron Series products.

Hi, I'm working on a project now and I need somme agressive FX (like penderecki's threnody for exemple), very tense tenuti, slides etc...should I need to wait for the "synchron FX strings II" or is there enough material in this one?

thank you

Hi terysound, 

You should find enough material in Synchron FX Strings I. 

Best, 
Paul

As mentioned above, a good amount of Penderecki like cluster material to draw on. The default mic positions are focused on a room sound. If you go into the mixer, labelled MIX, and look several rows below the sliders you will see the labels Room-Mix, etc. If you click on the labels it turns on the different mic positions. I found bringing in Close Mics is going to give you more of an in your face unnerving Penderecki cluster sound that people are accustomed to, if that is what you want. The default mic positions, however, are less anxiety inducing/easier on the ear. Choice is yours.

Hi,

the difference between standard and full is only MIC position right? not articulations?

thank you

That's correct.
