Hi Paul,

Thanks for the answer, however I am not 100% sure how this can help me? Is there somewhere a possibility to figure out which version of which Instrument i currently have installed? So in case I find Synchron Strings Pro Library Update 01, i could go to your page and figure out that I am missing Update 02?

Best regards

Gabriel

Is really nobody else facing this issue?

I now try to manually update an excel sheet with the last update dates i executed, but overall this is not very user friendly ....

Best regards

Gabriel

This might be a pretty stupid question however ...

Is there a simple way to identify which version of which libs I own can be updated? 

• Easiest way would be (In Directory Manager or Download Manager?) to have an "update all" button
• Another option would be to just somehow list the versions (and last update timestamp?) somewhere

I don't even know how I can figure out which version I am currently running, so my usual way just to download all updates and see what happens, but this is not convenient and also I don't want to download the files again and again (Ok Bandwidth and transmission cost is not a huge issue anymore, but still it does not feel right)

Best regards

Gabriel

Ok, I decided to skip on this offer, my Synchron(ized) Library is already too big, only 3 VI Instruments and no urgent need to use them anymore (and if I need them again I'll spend the 20€)

For shure it is great, but just comes few months too late :(

Could it be that this vido link is wrong, leading to 280 VC 

I am still struggeling as well, was waiting for Synchron MIRx since years (need to dig out the old posts) Now I have my SE synchronized (but still have 3 download instruments ... )

Also a +1 from me

I definitely miss an easy possibility to blend Synchron instruments with non Synchron instruments. Alternatively also a Vienna Suite Synchron IR and some presets would be a solution I'd be willing to pay for ... Or somebody who can create some templates to at least match Synchron reverb a little ...

MIR 24 + Synchron Room pack would be the way to go, but is a little but over my budget

Hi Dietz, thanks for the answer!

What I am looking for is a simple (and affordable) way to have instruments automatically placed in a room (for people without real mixing skills). Does not need to be perfect but at least a good start.

Until Synchron i just put MIRx in VI Pro on all of my Library and was ready to go - In combination with Synchron Libraries this just got way harder.

Using the Presets of Synchron and Synchronized Libs is one way (And also the way I currently do it with Smart and Epic Orchestra) but repurchasing everything is somehow not really the way I want to go (and even not possible with my Special and DL instruments ...)

So any solution would be highly appretiated (Eventually a VE Template for the most common instruments including placement and convolution reverb that somehow matches to Synchron presets?)

Nobody else having this problem?

Best regards

Gabriel

I know it is a quite old thread, but any update on this topic?

So I tested the lib for some hours and I absolutely like it!

Great playability out of the box, easy to use and easy to learn, but still offering an enormous flexibility (for these amount of articulations).

Great Work VSL!

P.S.: This is how I wished Synchron strings could be (advertised with Beauty of Simplicity and slogans like this).

I joined it in german and really liked it! Great value for money!

The courses start monthly, so no need to hurry, and (at least when I did it) the timing was very flexibel.

Best regards

Gabriel

Hi PaulieDC

Yes, you really have to use a physical hardware dongle to protect the licenses.

Not happy about this either, but it seems this is still the only way to protect VSL - for me it is worth the risk.

I don't know how reliable your fortune teller is, so I would rather hear from VSL directly. 

So today we might be able to judge the reliability ;)

Maybe we will get a video from him. And I will also start with a simple walkthrough video soon.

Thank you Paul! As always i know that good instruments don't make the Player better ;)

Hi!

Just out of curiosity ... Is there any non-edited demo? So just load any preset and start playing? I assume especially for piano this should be doable ;)

Gabriel

Great, thanks!

Hi all

Any updates on Synchrons? (e.g.: Player Videos, Player Beta Version, Missing Legato Patches, ...?)

BR

Gabriel

@1) Really depends I'd go for Synchron as they seem to be the "Next Generation" thing

@2) My favorite is Synchron, but just compare the demos (And if you choose Synchron at 1, then definitely Synchron)

@3) I can't compare Strings, but on Woodwinds the differences are
-) Articulations (You know already)
-) Velocity Layers --> Huge Benefit on Full
-) Half-Tone Sampling --> For me not a real game changer, except when adding second violins over transpose function

Hello Kayhan

For Volume 1, there are Keyboards (Piano, Celesta) inside Percussion, but as far as I know no Guitars (They are only in Vol2)

Hope this helps

Gabriel

They manage the licensing part with Time Stretch already, And completely independent how big one Mic Position in the final version will be, (Let's assume it is X GB), I would prefer to store 5*X GB on Slow Drive and 1*X GB on SSD, and still would like to get this feature implemented (with low priority). And yes, there will be some tinkering, but for me as amateur I prefer tinkerinv over HW investment :)

So let's agree to disagree here

Hi Fahl,

I don't think I get your point.

With Full version the math would be even better

I don't know how big full is so I am guessing here a little

For one Instrument (Violin 1) You have 8 MIC Positions á 15 GB --> 120 GB

You either store these 120 GB on an expensive SSD, or - What my recommendation would be - Store these 120 GB on an inexpensive Storage and only use your "Mix Down Position" (15 GB) on the Fast Storage.

Multiplying this by 5 (Assuming all instruments with full legato patches have comparable storage requirements) would mean

120 GBx5 =
600 GB SDD or 600 GB Slow Disk + 75 GB SDD

So there is a HUGE financial benefit there, by still having full flexibility (On the cost of preparation work, moving samples, ...) - with secondary effects of requiring less Memory and CPU.

[Edit]

And you could even make it better by removing the now obsolete Mix-Down Position , which would bring you down to 525 GB Slow Disk and 75GB SDD (enven though I am not shure if I want to go this way ...)

[/Edit]

You almost got it with "render individual patch mixdowns"

For the violins in Standard version:

I need ~70 GB of storage for 5 (in reality 4) Mic Positions. This means 1 Mic Position has around 15 GB.

If i now make my own "Mixdown" exactly as I want it I will require additional 15 GB of storage space (as you wrote)

However what I could do now is to put the original 70GB ona a slow and cheap harddrive and only take my personal mixdown on my SDD.

This might not be the perfect way to go if you want to alter the mix in every track you do, but as my approch is "make it nice once and then use it forever" it would grant me 55GB for 5 Instruments --> 250 GB overall SDD space

Btw, did you already think about a "Mix Down" Feature for the Synchron Player?
So you once choose your mix (from all positions als desired) then click the Mix-Down Button and "new" physical files are created with exactly this Mix.

I assume this feature could be handled very similar to VI-Pros time stretch functionality, and would not only allow to safe some memory/CPU, but in addition also SSD Space (having 5 MIC positions on slow hard disk and only the "Mix-Down" position on SSD. 

Anyhow this does not need to be a "day one" feature :)
