    Hello Stephen, 

    There are not too many rules: With PERFORMANCES articulations, as they were called in Vienna Instruments collections (= authentically connected notes like legato and repetitions), it's all about playing the connected note within a certain amount of time. 

    The "timer" resets after a few milliseconds (shorter times for fast articulations like staccato repetitions, longer times for slower articulations. That should help you to get an authentic start note after a certain time (imagine a trumpet player who has to start with a fresh attack instead of a connected note when the trumpet is still "activated"). 

    For Legato Blur, overlaps are the key for a smoother legato when using this fader. 

    That should be it. 

    I'll try to fit that in with an upcoming video as well. 

    Best, 
    Paul

    Ok.
    I'm completely confused. for more clarity, please, answer me the following question about RR and not about a notes connection: how to get the 8 variations as claimed in manual (see attached picture) in SY version with slow tempos (100 BPM)? I can get in the ViPro version 4 variations (as claimed in manual) but SY version can make only 2 at this moment. Where are other 6? Need I make legato between notes (start of note=end of previous) for variations start to works?

    Hi Vadim, 

    Yes, the gap between notes needs to be as small as possible with slow tempos to get the recorded note transitions.

    Great, it's work! Thanks a lot!


    Also, please check for CC controls, it seems as a bug:
    If I assign CC1 to control a velocity layers and CC2 to control a vibrato depth (as on the picture), if I move CC1 wheel both CC1 and CC2 moving identically.. also, if I moving a CC2 wheel, both CC1 and CC2 moving identically. In MIDI monitor I see, that only one CC, CC1 or CC2 going from Cubase. But in Synchron player these controllers moves as if they has been linked. What's wrong?

    Hi Vadim,

    I can in fact reproduce this, thanks for reporting - our developers will look into it as soon as possible!

    Best, Marnix

    Hi Vadim,

    Looking closer into this weird behavior: what happens, if you save the project with the erronous "linked" CC assignments, close it and then reload it?

    Are the CC´s still "linked"?

    Best, Marnix

    Hi Marnix,

    If I reload it, CC's are separated, OK!

    This issue has also been fixed with the latest release, 1.1.1301.

    Hi, 

    Yes, simply select the last slot of each row and you will see it (in the latest Synchron Player). 

    How about changing that thread title? 😉

    Resurrecting an old post! I've been hapily using the old Chamber Strings in many, many projects the last 10 years. I'm considering upgrading them to the Synchonized versions, but I'm concerned after seeing this post.

    Are the issues discussed in this post still present or have there been updates in the meantime?

    Also, do I understand correctly that the SYNCHRON-ized CHAMBER STRINGS include both the old Standard as well as the Extended Library samples (but enhanced etc)?

    Kind regards,

    Carsten

    Hi Carsten, 

    Yes, humanizing is available in the Synchron Player now, and yes, the Full Library of our VI Chamber Strings is contained in the SYNCHRON-ized Chamber Strings (re-mastered, re-edited and optimized for Synchron Player). 

    Best,
    Paul

    As I understand, some articulations of Vi version are not presents in Sy version (see att. pic). My choice - to use Vi version with MIR.
