Hi Paul and VSL TEam,

Congrats for  Smart Orchestra !! excellent idea

make my life easier, for life performance

just a small question about Xfade slider in pad + solo,

 does it effect all together (pad and solo instr) or is it possible to control  separately? 

Thanks

p s dont delay ipad apps for Syncron Player  Pleeeease !!

Did I see it correctly from the video that there the percussion does not include Timpani? If so it seems a strange omission.

All in all this appears to be a cheap way getting one's hands wet in the Synchron environment (Stage and Player).

I hope this does not point to the VI line becoming vestigial.

You are correct, no timpani included in this super-affordable product 

Don't worry: Just because we designed a product that offers a different way of handling our instruments, this doesn't make the VI Universe vestigial. 

Best,

Paul,

Re: "Vestigial," LOL. Sometimes a particular word just captures a thought perfectly. To me "vestigial" captures the concern quite well. The human body contains a number of organs and structures thought to have been useful at some point in past with further development of the body they wither into uselessness.  

I suppose it's unfair to imply uselessness, since one will be able to continue the use of VI instruments even if active development slows and perhaps ceases. At least they can do so until the operating systems that support them are retired.

Anyway, hopefully you can understand that this concern about the Synchron series is out there for people who have invested a lot in the VI series.  I appreciate your response. Judging from other forums I am not the only one with this concern.

Best wishes on the launch of this new product. As an owner of the entire Special Edition bundle, this certainly does give me a chance to dip my toes into the water that is the Synchron line.
