  • MAC Synchron Player?

    Sorry if this has been answered already (I looked).   Just installed the Yamaha CFX / Synchron player. Mac Pro, OS 10.12.6.   The only available installer supposedly installed plug-ins and configured the instrumental files on the drive.   But there is no stand-alone Player anywhere.  Is this a separate product / install, or what?   Would love to try out this new product (to me).  Thanks...


  • Hello KeyboardGuy, 

    Indeed, the Synchron Player / Synchron Pianos Software comes as plug-ins "only", so it works great in any major sequencer. 

    If you want to use it as a Standalone software, please install the included "Vienna Instruments&Vienna Ensemble" software and start the "Vienna Ensemble" Standalone host. This way you have a Vienna host for your Synchron products that works standalone. 

    Best,

  • Thank you!  It wasn't immediately obvious, but I finally figured it out.  Opened a sequencer and it was there as an expected plug-in.  Marvellous product!  This keyboard is amazingly responsive and I am able to bring out nuances in sublte compositions (e.g., Ravel) quite unlike any other similar product.  I'm using the VSL keyboards as a practicing concert pianist, and the sounds are absolutely amazing.  The best available. Period.  The Bösendorfer Imperial is wonderful and the new Yamaha is also fantastic.  I have the Vienna Ensemble and Instruments products and will check that out as well.  Thanks again!
