1.VSL: Please implement 2sus in Synchron Pianos 1/27/2022 3:57:54 PM

Hi Paul,

Is this true for the Stage B pianos as well?

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Stephen,

I loved the binaural effect you achieved on one of your demos for the Imperial. Any chance you can share the settings you used and/or offer some general advice on how to achieve this?

Thanks,
Michael

3.Synchron Piano sympathetic resonance and silent key 12/26/2021 5:52:57 PM

Frankly I don't even like it on my Baldwin 5'8" grand because when the dampers come down they make a little bit of a twang because not all the strings are vibrating equally. It was that way when it was new. But the sustain resonances would be very simple for them to do.

I've been doing the sustain resonances myself using the sampler Kontakt. If anyone else wants to know how, let me know. It's a bit of work.

I agree true una corda samples are unlikely--but a better una corda model should be doable--and as I think someone else on this forum mentioned could be adjustable (maybe even including felt or moderator options as as alternatives to una corda effect).

Nevertheless, I think una corda samples should be considered, at least for a limited set of pianos and/or mics. The Steinway perhaps has a large enough market to support una corda as a paid upgrade or even separate alternative instrument. The 280VC might be another good candidate, on the assumption Stage B makes scheduling a new recording session easier.

4.Synchron Piano sympathetic resonance and silent key 12/22/2021 9:33:52 PM

I just wanted to put in another vote for improved sympathetic resonance, silent key, and improved una corda (ideally samples, but a better algorithmic una corda, perhaps with adjustability, would also be great). I'd probably put una corda first on that list--and would even pay for an upgrade that included true una corda samples.

5.Buzzing in Bluethner 1895 - any advice? 12/22/2021 9:17:07 PM

I've noticed what sounds like some pretty artificial-sounding buzzing in some samples in the mid-high range on the Synchron Bluethner piano. It's most noticeable on A3 and A#3, but present on several other notes around middle C. Present with all mics, but most noticeable in the close mics. Tested with multiple sets of headphones and my NV10's internal speakers. Someone else has mentioned this in a review (kindly pointed out on anther forum): https://pianoclack.com/f...bluthner-1895-experience

When I contacted VSL support, they suggested this was part of the character of the piano and could be EQ'd out. I'm no engineer (just an amateur pianist) and haven't had any luck with the EQ'ing (to get a meaningful reduction in the buzzing, I've had to EQ out quite a wide frequency range, and I lose the attack and character of the piano).

Has any one else experienced this? Can anyone offer any advice? I find it fairly distracting when playing what is otherwise a fantastic instrument.
