Vienna Symphonic Library Synchron Orchestral Percussion III Standard Library is a virtual instrument with a library that captures a wide variety of instruments and effects, such as car horns, whistles, and birdcalls, as well as Latin percussion instruments with MIDI loops. The instruments were masterfully played in Synchron Stage A, Vienna—one of world's best-sounding scoring stages—at their designated positions onstage.
Powered by the included Vienna Synchron Player, this 11.3GB Standard Library comprises more than 27,252 samples, which provide a large assortment of realistic timbres and articulations. Engineers employed four separate phase-coherent microphone configurations, recorded simultaneously with every nuanced detail to provide a broad range of room-sound options. All mic configurations can be mixed to create stereo mixes, each with different levels of ambience and stereo panorama.
