Enhanced, Optimized, and Reedited from the Ground Up
Starting with the raw, unprocessed original Silent Stage recordings for the VI Collections Woodwinds I and II, the Vienna Symphonic team worked to increase flexibility and ease of use for a quick and creative workflow. The volume levels of all articulations have been overhauled to provide matching levels, not only within the articulations of each instrument but also in interaction with the other included woodwind instruments and with all other instruments of the Synchron Series. This allows for smooth articulation changes without the need for volume corrections, and smooth crossfading between vibrato and nonvibrato articulations.
Vienna Synchron Player
Studio Woodwinds comes with a free Vienna Synchron Player that incorporates a powerful sample playback engine that features streaming performance with an updated level of ease-of-use. Play short notes, long notes with various attacks, legatos, scalable vibrato intensities, and note repetitions intuitively just by moving one or two preconfigured controls and with minimal need to switch articulations manually. With the Synchron Player’s innovative algorithms, the liveliness of these instruments unfolds magically and effortlessly.
World-Class Acoustics
For Studio Woodwinds, a specifically designed convolution reverb derived from Vienna MIR Pro is built into the Synchron Player. It features an outstanding and unique ambience of the 540 m² (5813 ft²) main hall of Synchron Stage Vienna. The reverberation and placement presets combine customized impulse responses with crafted reverb settings for each instrument. By adding the ambience of Synchron Stage Vienna’s Stage A to the dry samples in real time, Studio Woodwinds blends with every other product in our Synchron Series, resulting in a production-ready sound out of the box.
