Hi,
The current offer is mighty tempting, a good start into the new year. Now before I mindlessly purchase samples like a maniac:
I know about the difference in content between the SY-zed and SY-zed SE version of Dimension Strings. My question is about the sonic character. Simply said, I read (correct me if I'm wrong) that e.g. the Orchestral strings versions are both remastered, but differently, resulting in a different sonic character between these two versions. Is this the case for the Dimensions Strings as well? Meaning - do the SE Dimension Strings "sound the same"/have the same samples and remastering as their bigger SYzed counterpart? If not - what could I expect the difference to be?
I own SE but not the VI Dim Strings.
Thanks, Mat

The Synchronized Dim-Strings should sound identical to the VI Dim-Strings, provided you disable the Synchronized versions' Synchron IR, and Built-In Reverb. Since both libraries use the same samples.
Oh.. I thought you were asking of the Dim-Strings VI version should be similar to the Synchronized version. Regarding the SE version. I'm not sure exactly how that compares to the Synchronized Dim-Strings, but I'm guessing they should be quite similar.

Hello MatFlour,
Yes, the SE Dimension Strings sound the same / have the same samples as the bigger VI / SY-ized collections.

Hello,
For the SE Dimension strings, how does the sound travel through the mixer channel? Is it a violinist playing into a single microphone, then it goes to the EQ, then the delay, then you can send it to the AUX to go to a Room Reverb, then it goes to the Synchron convolution, if turned on, then you can send it to the algorithmic reverb, then there is the channel fader? Are all these paths summed at the end? Someone needs to draw a line diagram of all these paths. Thx,

Hi Cathy,
It's pretty much straightforward: Each player gets a separate microphone and mixer channel, and you can choose from single player or desks or all players of a section at once. Each has their own EQ and Impulse Response, and now you can interact with each separate player, to get the ensemble sound you like.
I have made a walkthrough video of the SYNCHRON-ized Special Edition Volume 5 - Dimension Strings here, hope that helps.
I'm a bit confused, as you already seem to have that Volume...
Best, Paul
