1.!! SYNCHRON BRASS !! 7/9/2021 2:57:13 PM

Make sure to be logged in when visiting the product page, to see your personal upgrade price!

I have Hercules, Izar, Jupiter, Kopernikus from Big Bang Orchestra. I think these are the whole brass libraries from Big Bang Orchestra. But the price currently shown on my account for Synchron Brass is not € 399, but € 440. I was wondering which library I miss from BBO to be qualified for the discounted price of € 399 for Synchron Brass.

Thanks.

Thank you very much. Musica and Lyra library are very cool !

3.BBO: Lyra & Musca, Low and High String Sections 7/2/2020 6:23:16 AM

I just purchased the Big Bang Orchestra String Pack, but don't quite understand why the "High Strings" (Lyra) does not include the pitch range of violin from G3 to C4 (middle C). If I want to write a melody for violin, there is no way to use "High Strings" library since it lacks the notes on G string. Is there any chance to expand the pitch range of "high strings" so as to cover the lower part of violin pitch range in the future ?  

4.CPU Usage very high with Synchorn Libraries ? 6/24/2020 9:14:37 AM

I purchased several Synchron Libraries, mainly the Big Bang Orchestra Series, but noticed that the CPU usage is very high (10%~ 35%  for one syncrhon preset, 7%~15% for just one synchron patch ).   Does anyone also have the same experiences with Synchron Libraries ? Is there some way to fix it ?  Thanks.

CPU: intel i7 6700K 400 Hz.

Harddrive: SSD

RAM: 64G

Operating System: windows 10

5.Synchro Player has no content 2/24/2019 3:09:58 AM

I run into the same problem. I downloaded and installed the Epic Orchestra 2.0. I also added the directory where I put *.vsynvolume files to the "volume scan path" in Synchron Player, but there is still no content in Synchron Player.  

OS: Window 10 

DAW: Cubase 9.5

6.Long note triggered VI Pro twice for no reason ? 7/3/2015 7:14:47 PM

I use VI pro with VSL solo strings I in Cubase 7, and I noticed that when I draw a long note, the keyboard interface of VI Pro will sometimes be triggered again after the note ends. This causes an unwanted short note after the long note for no reason. I have checked the midi editor and event list in cubase and there is no extra note event after this long note. I have no idea how this happens. In fact, I have run into the same problem quite often.

Any solutions ? Thank you so much.

7.strange sample in VSL solo strings - cello 5/26/2015 1:34:14 PM

I have noticed that when I play MIDI pitch 45 (pitch A),  the VSL solo string library  "01_VC_perf_Legato"  sounds  like G-A instead of A.  In other words,  MIDI pitch 45 sounds like A with a grace note G before it. This happens when the sample is triggered after longer rest.  If I play the same pitch  repeatedly without any rest, the pitch sounds normal except the first note.
  Does anyone find the same problem  with solo strings I  -  cello    "01_VC_perf_Legato" ?
8.question about connecting multiple computers through vienna ensemble pro 9/3/2014 2:32:57 AM
I am thinking of purchasing vienna ensemble pro 5 to connect multiple computers. Currently I have only one Vienna Key to store all my VSL licenses. I would like to know if I need to have multiple Vienna Keys in order to run my VSL libraries on multiple computers connected through Vienna Ensemble Pro. In other words, do I need multiple licensed copies of VSL libraries, vienna softwares, and Vienna Keys if I want to connect multiple computers through Vienna Ensemble Pro ? Do I also need multiple licensed copies of Vienna Ensemble Pro ? I also noticed that VSL offer three serials for my Vienna Instrument Pro. Does that mean it can be used on three computers connected through network with one Vienna Key ? I can't find any info about how to make use of my three VI pro licenses or how to transfer these three license to three different USB keys. By the way, may I transfer or store my VSL license on my Vienna Key to Cubase key ?

Please help. Thanks.
9.SSD or Slave Computer ? 10/26/2013 2:22:26 PM
Thank you all so much for sharing your experiences.

My main purpose of upgrading my PC is to compose for full orchestra, not for chamber music. My current PC with 16G Ram, Intel i3-530 Processor is quite enough for chamber music, but not for a full orchestra with various articulations. Since the expense of purchasing another computer of regular capability and of building a Raid system with 4 SSD of 256G through an external Raid box are almost the same, it is hard to know which option is better for loading more samples in a sequencer.
10.SSD or Slave Computer ? 10/25/2013 5:19:39 AM
Does SSD really increase the size of the samples that can be loaded or only speed up the loading process ?
I feel confused about the function of SSD and RAM regarding the size of the samples that can be loaded.

:(
11.SSD or Slave Computer ? 10/25/2013 12:29:37 AM
I am thinking of expand the capacity of my PC computer so as to load more VSL samples.
I would like to know what hardware is better for me.

Should I get 1TB SSD on the same computer or a new pc computer as a slave ?
What are the pros and cons of using a slave pc instead of using only one computer with SSD ?
What is the minimum speed SSD needs to be in order to make my computer load more VSL samples beyond the size of the RAM ?
Is 500mb/s fast enough ?

Please help. Thanks.
12.presets and libraries suddenly disappear from VI pro 10/29/2012 1:03:07 PM
Yes, I updated the elicenser software, but it does not fix the problem. Now I have to re-install all the libraries. This is the second time such problem happens.
13.presets and libraries suddenly disappear from VI pro 10/28/2012 4:57:41 PM
I still find no ways to make those libraries appear in VI pro in host software nor in VI pro standalone.
But it is strange that the library works fine in VI.

I am afraid that the elicenser seems to to be very unstable. Otherwise it is VI pro that has some bug.
Last time, similar situation happens and I re-install all the libraries again to solve the problem. But this time, it does not seem to work.
14.presets and libraries suddenly disappear from VI pro 10/27/2012 2:28:52 AM
When I works on my projects, suddenly all of the presets and libraries (Woodwind I, II, Brass I, II, Solo Strings I) except VSL Voice and SE disappear form my VI pro. Then I try to close Nuendo and to load VSL through VI pro standalone, the presets and libraries still do not appear. This happen on the latest update of VI pro. I have rescan the library with directory manager and also update the e-license, but the libraries still do not appear in VI pro.


What's wrong with VI pro ?

Thanks.
15.Trumpet C of Brass I does not sound 10/26/2012 6:52:59 PM
I also tried VI instead of VI pro, trumpet C still does not sound.

When I load patches or presets for trumpet C, VI or VI pro does not show any error message, and the loading process finishes in no time as if it does not really load samples. Some of the patches does sound, but not all the white keys sound as if some of the samples are missing.

PS:
I noticed that my version of Brass I is version 2, and I am downloading Brass I version 3 to see if this problem can be solved.
But does previous version of Brass I lack in samples for trumpet C ?

Any idea ? Thanks.
16.Trumpet C of Brass I does not sound 10/26/2012 5:57:30 PM
It is so strange that the trumpet C in my VSL Brass I does not sound. I tried to reinstall the library, but it still does not work.
When I try to load the matrix of trumpet C, it takes no time. I think there is no sound samples at all. What can I do to solve the problem ?

Thanks.
17.Will I get an order-of-confirmation mail for educator's discount ? 10/21/2012 2:09:34 AM
I have just purchased Woodwind II and Brass II from VSL website and also uploaded my teacher certificate on October 19, but the order of confirmation I got is still the original price. According to VSL website, it requires one business day to process the purchase, but in fact I got my activation code immediately after placing the order and charged the original price, not discounted price. I am afraid the system have ignored my request for discounted price. I don't know if VSL will notify me later about how much they actually charge later ?

Thanks.
18.VSL solo strings vs individual strings in Dimensional Strings 10/4/2012 2:32:10 PM
Currently I am too busy to post sound examples for comparison. But maybe someone can do it by comparing the portamento patch between VSL solo strings and the solo part of dimension strings. The former is very expressive for me while the latter sounds artificial. The differences regarding portamento and legato are very obvious.

Besides, somehow when I play solo part of DS, sometimes it sounds like two violins playing instead of one (especially when portamento or legato is used). This is one of the reason I think it artificial just like solo part of LA strings. But this does not happen in VSL solo strings. The best part of VSL solo strings is its portamento and legato.

I hope Vienna company can be very careful regarding portamento and legato when recording and programming double bass, cello, and viola.
19.VSL solo strings vs individual strings in Dimensional Strings 10/4/2012 6:39:46 AM
I just tried dimension strings, and found that the individual solo string in Dimension Strings is not good enough to be played alone. I don't think they record the real portamento of each interval. Besides, the sound quality of solo is not smooth when a long note is played. It also contains some weird noises that makes the solo not bright enough to be real. The solo part sounds just like that in LA strings. LA strings use Kontakt script to creates fake portamento for 1st violin so there are artifacts in it. It is a pity that the portamento of solo violin in Dimension strings sounds very similar to it.
20.Dimension Strings 10/3/2012 6:13:58 PM
I just tried my dimension strings. The portamento is very slow and sounds fake because I can hear the scale-like sounds during the portamento. It definitely cannot be used as a solo violin.
21.VSL solo strings vs individual strings in Dimensional Strings 9/26/2012 4:55:54 AM
Thanks for the replies.

How about the crossfade between no vibrato and expressivo in Dimension strings ?
Is it better than then VSL solo strings regarding vibrato control ?

Some reviews say that cello in VSL solo strings does not sound right. I am expecting the new cello in dimension strings could sound better.
22.VSL solo strings vs individual strings in Dimensional Strings 9/24/2012 1:43:26 PM
I have VSL solo strings, and I was wondering if the individual part of the Dimensional Strings sounds better than the original VSL solo strings. Could anyone share your points of view after using both libraries ?

Thanks.
23.Differences between Expression and Volume ? 9/4/2012 3:34:32 AM
There are options at the bottom of the slider in VI for master volume and for expression.
I noticed that when expression is set low, then I can't hear the sound.
I was wondering if Expression works the same as Master Volume in VSL ?
Or if expression only works for some of the patches in VSL.

In other words, does the change of expression parameter in VSL trigger different layers of samples ?
Or does it only control the volume of the instrument ?

Thanks.
24.Legato of Vienna Choir 8/28/2012 1:44:52 AM
Hi, Herb,
I try your method on portamento of solo strings in order to exaggerate the effect, but it seems that VI Pro only makes the process of portamento shorter when start offset is set to 50. It does not make the portamento longer.

The legato effect of the Vienna Choir legato patch is by default (start offset = 0 ms) and it is already quite subtle. I doubt the legato process will become longer when it is used in VI Pro.

PS: By the way, when I click on "invert" of the speed, the start offset will become longer when I play it slowly, which means less portamento. It seems to do the opposite of what we expect.

I hope I don't get it wrong.

Thanks for your help.
25.Legato of Vienna Choir 8/27/2012 10:36:44 AM
Thanks for the link and comparison. I know how the the legato works, but I am expecting something like the "portamento" of VSL solo strings.
