Vienna Symphonic Library Bansuris Overview

Synchron Bansuris from Vienna Symphonic Library is a comprehensive virtual instrument based on the traditional Indian bansuris, a side-blown bamboo flute often associated with the Hindu God Krishna. The bansuri has a characteristic vibrato with loads of dynamics, and is now available for the first time as part of VSL's advanced Synchron line of virtual instrument libraries.

This library was created using seven microphone positions with numerous preconfigured mixer presets, and supports stereo, 5.1 surround, Dolby Atmos, and 9.1 AURO-3D mixing. The Bansuris library includes numerous distinct articulations, all fully playable from the free included Venna Synchron Player program, and is available in Audio Unit, VST, AAX Native, and standalone formats for macOS and Windows computers.

Note:
This license upgrades any Bansuris Standard Library to a Full Library, increasing samples from 35,630 to 57,008 in a 21.6GB library.
Three Dynamic Flutes
The bansuri is a side-blown bamboo flute with six finger-holes that originates from the Indian subcontinent. It is made from an untreated piece of bamboo cane that is tightly wrapped with silk or nylon threads and is associated with the Hindu God Krishna, who is often depicted playing it.

This Synchron World Winds Pack includes three bansuris in the keys of E, D, and A. Typical playing techniques include a characteristic vibrato, bends, portamentos, and falls at the end of a note or phrase.

Played by a Professional
All three bansuris included in this pack were played by multi-instrumentalist, folk instruments expert, and member of the Synchron Stage Orchestra, Veronika Vitazkova. She played in many orchestras, among them the Radio Symphony Orchestra Vienna, the Vienna Chamber Orchestra, and Tonkünstler Orchestra, toured Europe as a solo flutist with the late Ennio Morricone, and played at esteemed festivals from Salzburger Festspiele to Hollywood in Vienna.

Having performed on countless film scores at Synchron Stage Vienna, Veronika feels very much at home on the large Stage A and marvels at the exceptional acoustics of this scoring stage that contribute substantially to the overall sound of each instrument.

Every Nuance Captured
To capture the spectacular ambience of Stage A of Synchron Stage, VSL's engineers employed seven phase-coherent microphone configurations to provide a broad range of room options. All signals are available as separate channels in the mixer section of the Vienna Synchron Player. A wide variety of presets offer perfect mixer settings and serve as great starting points for your own sound creations.
Diatonic Scale
Under the Content tab, you'll find a list of each bansuri's natural sampled tones, which are diatonic as opposed to chromatic. Nonetheless, this software instrument provides chromatic keyboard mappings for every instrument. In addition, legatos were sampled chromatically. If you want your composition to be played by a bansuri player, please bear in mind that not everything you write and play on the keyboard may be possible to perform for a musician, due to the nonchromatic nature of each instrument.
