This Studio Alto Trombone from Vienna Symphonic Library is a virtual instrument library that features a wide set of expressive and dynamic articulations. The Alto Trombone was widely used in both the classical and Baroque musical periods. It features a slide mechanism that enables smooth, gliding transitions between notes. This smooth sound creates a unique timbre.
This Studio version is a crossgrade from the Virtual Instruments Alto Trombone Standard Library. The samples are recorded dry, which allows you to place them in your virtual stage and anywhere in the stereo field or use the internal convolution reverb of the Synchron Series to recreate the Vienna Synchron Stage.
