Vienna Symphonic Library Synchron Bells III Upgrade to Full Library is for owners of the Synchron Bells III Standard Library who want to access the Full Library.
Upgrading to the 45.3GB Full Library provides you with up to 49,404 samples recorded simultaneously with seven separate phase-coherent microphone configurations and with every nuanced detail to provide a broad range of room-sound options. All mic configurations can be mixed to create stereo, 5.1 surround, or 9.1 Auro-3D mixes, each with different levels of ambience and stereo panorama, from close and focused to broad and epic.
Note:
Software requires a ViennaKey USB protection device or other USB eLicenser (available separately), if one is not already on the system.
