1.[SOLVED] EDU discount not applied to Synchron Package 9/29/2020 11:09:51 AM

Hi Paul,

it is indeed, thank you so much; and big thanks also to the people at your sales department who were very helpful in this and other matters, too.

2.[SOLVED] EDU discount not applied to Synchron Package 9/26/2020 6:43:26 PM

Hi Paul,

thanks a lot for the speedy reply! The mail with screenshots has been sent and I have also received the automatic reply with the case number.
Login status seems to be perfectly functional from my side, BTW: I get the "welcome [mail address]" message and the logout option in the top menu bar, and, with other libraries, also the education discount. So, hopefully, this is nothing too big to sort out.

Thanks again and have a nice weekend.

3.[SOLVED] EDU discount not applied to Synchron Package 9/26/2020 11:27:45 AM

Hi,

as of late, the student discount seems to not be applied to the price of the Synchron Package, both standard and full library. Instead, only a small discount (less than ~5%) is deducted. The prices here also are not named "your student price", but "promotional price" and "your price" only. With other libraries, e.g. the Vienna Super Package and Symphonic Cube, this is not the case.

I assume this might be connected to the new Synchron Strings Pro package whose promotional price possibly is somehow overriding/blocking any other discount, no matter the sum. Is there a way to fix from my side or has it to be done from server side?

Thanks in advance for the answer!

4.BBO "obsolete"/"recreatable" with larger VSL libraries? 9/24/2020 11:28:05 AM

Paul and Seventh Sam, thanks a lot for your help and clarifications!

And to the VSL folks in general, also thanks a lot for your exceptional customer service.

5.BBO "obsolete"/"recreatable" with larger VSL libraries? 9/8/2020 2:39:33 PM

Hello VSL-community,

as I am currently planning to get some of the libraries, I would be happy if someone could help me with my questions about two issues, which I have not been able to discern myself:

From my understanding, the BBO series contains selected samples, patches and instruments from the "bigger" editions, mainly the Synchron libraries.

1) Would it thus be possible to (re)create "BBO style patches" on the basis of some of the larger libraries? I am referring primarily to ensemble and group style sounds/patches, be it multiple "players" of a certain instrument (like 4 violins) for a richer and more realistic sound or a patch consisting of several different instruments combined/layered either to be played simultaneously or by velocity or key split ("high strings", "woodwinds", "whole orchestra" etc.).

2) Are absolutely _all_ of the BBO sounds taken from the other libraries, that is, if, e.g., one gets the Synchron package, would the whole BBO series "included", in effect?

I really like many of the BBO libraries (strings, brass, woodwinds, especially) and at the moment I am quite torn what best to get for my budget. Currently, I tend towards the Synchron-ized Elements Special Edition package together with several BBO volumes (Andromeda, strings, brass, woodwinds - mainly those packages with no clusters, riffs or heavily bpm-dependent samples). If however, with some time and work those BBO volumes can be built (or approximated) from the Synchron-ized Elements Special Edition or Synchron sounds, I would prefer to not buy them "again" under the BBO label.

Furthermore, with the current discounts (and considerable financial stretches) it might even be possible for me to go for several of the Synchron packages instead of the above combination - which would, of course, cost more, but would also include e.g. all of the pianos (of which I already have the CFX which I love, and would like to get the D-274 ASAP, which from the demos seems to be phenomenal).

Another option might even still be the VI series, especially at the new discounted prices, but from the demo version I realized that I prefer sounds I do not have to fiddle with overmuch for them to fit in, but rather "work" out of the box.

As it stands, I am uncertain what to do (option overload), and any information is highly appreciated.

In case the following might be useful, my areas of musical interest (regarding the use of the VSL libraries) are symphonic/folk metal, classical piano, and movie/game scoring. I am not a professional, and currently use a laptop and Windows 8.1 Pro, with 1+2 TB SSDs (NVME and USB 3), 16 GB RAM, a i5-8250u CPU, and Cubase Pro 9; MIDI input controllers are keyboard (main), e-drums, wind controller, and MIDI-fied guitar.

I hope my post is in the right place here, thanks in advance for any help.

[Edit: Corrected the package name, it's the "Synchron-ized Special Edition" bundle I am interested in, not "Synchron-ized Elements" - my bad]
