Hi!

@Nik: Check out the demos, it should be pretty clear. But the main advantage is the playability!

@littleweirdo: The price for Smart Orchestra will be increased after the introductory offer. And we're of course working on more FX. 

Thanks for the praise of our softwatre, I'll share that with the team as well!

Synchron Player simply opens new possibilities for different kinds of products, and we are only at version 1.1 right now... 

Also: Be careful on the roads!!

Best, 
Paul

« And we're of course working on more FX. »

I an not sure more FX are useful (exception is transcient shaper for percussion).

When I play sound from the FX presets, they quickly become boring. The sound is static, nothing happend.

What is missing is modulation.

Have a look at the way to modulate the sound with :

• Izotope Iris 2
• Heavyocity Gravity Pack

There are few effects available, but many ways to modulate the sound.

Iris 2 contains the classic Enveloppe and LFO and Gravity contains some motions sequencers.

The result is incredible and it's easy to create animated sound design.

Stop working on more FX and add modulation to the FX.

Hi Olivin, 

That's an INCREDIBLE idea, we would have never thought of that!

What's the mixer / output sections setup on this?

thanks

Hi Carl,

Check out the videos, please.

All sections (Strings, Woodwdinds, Brass, Percussion) are controllable on separate volume faders, and additionally you get the solo legato instruments on separate faders.

Best,
Paul

No online manual pdf?

I watched but only heard mention of an internal mixer, balancing, not how separate outputs are available for user routing. Also no mention of how it operates inside of VEPro, MIR or with existing VSL libraries.

Hi Carl, 

I can send you the Synchron Player pdf, please send a quick mail to support@vsl.co.at.

In short words: Flexible routing, also with VE PRO.

Paul

Thanks Paul,

just purchased so I should have it shortly!

So I tested the lib for some hours and I absolutely like it!

Great playability out of the box, easy to use and easy to learn, but still offering an enormous flexibility (for these amount of articulations).

Great Work VSL!

P.S.: This is how I wished Synchron strings could be (advertised with Beauty of Simplicity and slogans like this).

Paul,

This is a tremendous innovation to small users like me. Wonderful introduction to the vast opportunuties to VSL. If you wish, can you substitute any other VSL instrument into VSO. eg the Appassionata strings into the strings etc etc across the board?

Yours,

Patrick

.....and following on from this, can you use MIR to change the instruments around the stage? Actually, can you place the instruments around the stage in the first place? And use Vienna Suite as well? I'm getting carried away but you can get my drift. This is a wonderful introduction to VSL. I'm sold. I am not a professional composer. I'm too old.

Patrick

You guys might want to consider updating your Synchron player description page, and perhaps, even link to the products it works with...

Question for Paul and anyone else to help out.

Smart Orchestra.

When you use the pads option, can you substitute that particular pre-set instrument with any other VSL instrument?

Patrick

Very sorry. I meant can you substitute the solo instrument with any other VSL solo instrument above the pads.

Actually, can VSL say what specific solo instrument was used for the 'pads + solo' instrument patches in case you change it ( if you can) with another?

Patrick

Hi Patrick, 

The Solo instruments are always legato patches from our existing VI Collections. 

Sorry if I am dense, but what exactly would you like to do?

Best, 
Paul

Hi Paul,

Many thanks. I was thinking whether I could , say, substitute or change the strings that are automatically used in the Pads+ Solo with the appassionata strings or something similar, and the same change in the woodwinds with a different VSL woodwind instrument. Just for further variety.

Patrick

Hi, 

You can add other Synchron Series instruments, but you will have to check that they are using the same mixer setup. You can NOT load VI collections in the Synchron Player. 

To be safe, I'd keep different products on different tracks. 

Best, 
Paul

Hi Paul,
