This crossgrade version of Vienna Symphonic Library Studio Elements is for owners of VI Elements Standard Library who want to access the Element sounds mapped for the Vienna Synchron Player.
The Studio Elements library features the rare and unique instruments from the VI Elements collection but expanded by adding more unusual instruments. It also includes a host of otherworldly sonic effects created by using the Synchron Player's extensive plug-in and routing options.
The collection offers composers and arrangers production-ready archaic sounds ranging from ethereal shimmers to thunderous strikes combined with the outstanding ambience of Synchron Stage Vienna—great for adventurous film and game scoring, trailer music, or sound design.
Studio Elements instruments comprise water (waterphone), metal (singing bowls, tam-tams), stone (lithophones), and glass (glass harmonica, verrophone, bottles). New instruments include a second lithophone, another waterphone, additional tam-tams, rails, thunder sheets, crotales, ocean drums, and many more.
FX presets offer the Combined FX category with a total of 24 instruments made by combining different Elements. With a variety of included mixer presets, each instrument can be placed at nine different positions in the main hall of Synchron Stage Vienna for a rich, out-of-the-box sound.
The software is compatible with Mac and Windows and operates in AU, VST, and AAX formats. It is powered by the free Vienna Synchron Player.
