It's my understanding that at some point the Synchron Strings released over the past several months will be available to download as Synchron Player-specific libraries. Now that I've used the player with the FX strings and I love it, I'm eager to start doing this. My question is when?

Hopefully Synchron Strings 1 with the new Synchron Strings 1 Player will be out this month (May) ! With no more delays.

Synchron Strings I made s lot of money for VSL, but instead of looking after the early adopters they brought out two new products with Synchron Player, while leaving us waiting. We’ve already paid so they make us wait and tempt new customers with products that have the Synchron Player. Given how bad the legato is, and after half a year of waiting, all early adopters should be refunded. We were not given the product we paid for, and even if you release it tomorrow, legato was not reinvented, but taken back a decade or so. Really enjoying my HZ-strings this week. Spitfire are hit and miss, but these days, they totally outclass VSL.

I wish I could disagree, but I can't. I'd like a refund of Synchron Strings, too.

Because you've said many times the Synchron Player won't change the Legatos or improve that aspect of Synhcron Strings. If that's the case, why wait for a bad product?

We have a product that doens't sound great, it isn't 'legato reinvented' and is six months or more late. It's a bad product that very few people would have bought if they'd been able to fully demo it in the real world, but instead we bought it with the promise of 'soon'. This is not soon, and it sounds bad anyway. I really want a refund.

Thanks. With no disrepect at all to what you're doing, this sounds like the problem I have with these strings - I feel like I have to pause all the time, and make space, because actually playing the notes close together doesn't create the legto I'm looking for.

Somebody contact the FBI, Interpol and Scotland Yard!  Spoilsman has hacked into the financial records of VSL and he's spilling them all over Internet forums.  You Rascal 

How do you know how much money VSL made from Synchron Strings I?  And if they did make a lot of money from Synchron Strings wouldn't that be a testament to just how supperior the product is?  What is it you don't like about the legatos that everybody else does?

Please excuse my bellicosity but I'm really getting irritated with people bitching and moaning about when the Synchron Player is coming out.  Since the developers can't say it themselves, I'll say it for them. "The damn player will be released when it gets released. There!"

But part of this is VSL's fault if I may be so bold.  I wouldn't have made any announcement until the day the product was released.  Surprise everybody.  When you announce a future product as big as this you fill everybody up with anticipation.  It's like dangling Skittles candies in front of a bunch of hypoglycemic five-year-olds.  When's it coming out!  When's it coming out!  That project was due yesterday!  Get a hold of yourselves.

 Maybe I'm just more fortunate than others but I take my sweet time before buying any software product even if it is VSL.  I do research, I carefully listen to demos and I wait about six months so they can hammer out all the inevitable bugs.  I know some VSL die hards would buy anything VSL puts out even if it were a chimp banging on a whoppy cushion with a bannana.  All the power to them.  On the other hand, everything I've bought from VSL has been top notch professional gear worth every penny.  But if the player were to be released tommorow it would still be a while before I'd even consider it. 

I'm beginning to understand you William more and more everyday I visit the forum and as I consider myself to be a mild mannered person that's a bit frightening.

It's nice that you're superiorly patient and way smarter with your economics than these fools who bought a product they still haven't received in full 7 months later.

Well, that's not true. First, we didn't pay anything for the Synchron Player. And second, Synchron Strings I are complete and work perfectly within VI/VI Pro.
