    Working on it...

    And yeah, happy. This is very good. There are some things I used to do in VI Pro that will take a bit of thought, working out how to do them here. But it sounds wonderful, works easily. I can't wait for the rest to download. Beautiful product and, I hardly dare say it, worth the wait.

    Great news! Cool player!

    Can we delete the older sample folders (SY_1st-Violins_Stereo) if we want to use Synchron Strings with the new player only?

    End quote. 

    Seriously? I guess a lot of people will say the same as you, and maybe it's going to be quite personal, or about how you play. But I don't think it's an objetive failure. If there's one thing we can say about Synchron, it's that it's subjective. A bit like The Last Jedi. Half the Star Wars fans hate it, half love it. I expect the same for Synchron.

    It's only been a short while, but I find that as I change my playing style, I'm getting sounds out of this player that are beyond anything I hoped for. Love the Legato Slur. And I just enjoy playing and finding new forms of expression. Still experimenting with various controllers, but finding it very easy to make sounds I like. Hope I'm not too easily pleased and that others agree. Can't wait to get all the sections and make some big sounds.

    1) Ok ready for the next Download ðŸ˜ƒ

    2) Paul could you explain some essentials we have to know about the relation of the VI-Synchron-Samples and the Synchronplayer-Sets:I assume the first versions will allow us to still load synchron-Libraries in VI (if that would do any sense for anyone here - not for me)  But befor deleting 600GB

    Is there anything necessary to keep from the already installed VI-Sampleset even if we just want to use the Synchron-Player?

    Hi,

    Great to see that the downloads are going fast!

    If you just want to use the Synchron Player in the future, you can safely erase all the VI Synchron Strings I Content.

    Maybe it's a good idea to bounce your existing tracks to audio, to be on the safe side.

    The VI content s still available in the Downloads Archive.

    Best,
    Paul

    Congrats on the release, VSL team!!!

    I notice there are some new audio demos on the product page.

    Are all the demos on the page using the new Synchron Player?

    Great to have the Synchron Player but here the au version doesn't appear in Logic 10.4.1 or Live 10. The vst version shows up in Live 10. I can also open the player in Protools. I'm on macOS 10.13.3. Any ideas?

    Paul, What is the controller you are using to adjust your cc data in the synchron player video tutorials? I would love to know where I can get one! Thanks Becky

    Just found a restart is the solution to the Synchron Player audio unit not showing up in Logic and Live. Looking forward very much to getting to grips with this software.

    Hi Paul, great job! Two questions though,

    1. We did download the Synchron Libraries (Strings-Yamaha Piano) Earlier this year (before June 2018).  Do the downloads Yamaha multi SPv1 (36.66 GB), Yamaha Stereo SPv1 (34.57 GB) and the Strings 1_1st Violins multi SPv4 (24.82 GB), contain new additional samples and therefore we need to download all the GBs?

    2. We are in a position where we have to use two PCs for all our VSL libraries and software (beside the one we are recording - Protools HDX) as the Synchron Yamaha Piano requires a lot of  computing power by itself in case of uncompromised settings and number of voices. Can we run the Synchron Player on one PC (say A) while the library is installed on another PC (say B) on the Local network? Will we have delays?

    Please advise

    Paul, why have you removed the transport controls from the vidoe player? Now there no way to pick up where we loft off watching.

    Hi,

    The MIDI Slider controller is a Faderfox unit I picked up a few years ago (I think it is not available anymore, but there are some alternatives. I like the quality of the sliders.

    @Yannis:
    1) We have created a new format that supports the performance, that's why all samples were re-packed for Synchron Strings I.
    The content for Synchron Piano Yamaha CFX stayed the same.

    2) Synchron Player and content need to be installed on the same computer.

    @Bill: I'm not aware that any controls were removed, but I will check again. Do you want to send a screenshot that shows the difference to before? You can always switch through the chapters as well.

    Best,
    Paul
