In stark contrast to the studio acoustic of VSL’s stereo‑only Vienna Instruments collections, the Synchron series is recorded from multiple microphone positions in the historic Synchron sound stage, and therefore enjoys the twin advantages of a sumptuous concert hall ambience and multi‑channel mixing. While specialist items such as piccolo and bass trumpet, flugelhorn, cornet, alto trombone, euphonium and Wagner tuba aren’t included, the popular cimbasso gets a welcome airing - and should you need any of those abovementioned non‑standard instruments, all are available as individual downloads in Vienna Instruments format. Other outsize groups include 12 French horns, six trumpets and a section of nine tenor and bass trombones, with smaller ensembles and a choice of solo instruments available for less grandiose settings. The project is well under way: following the release of Synchron Percussion and Synchron Strings, the latest addition is VSL Synchron Brass, featuring 136.8GB of instrument recordings performed by a team of first‑call players.Ĭomprising eight solo instruments and nine ensembles, this large library covers all the orchestral brass essentials, ranging from solo trumpet to a layered ‘giant tutti brass’ section of 28 players. As EastWest and Spitfire Audio have done before them, the Viennese busy bees are creating a second complete symphonic collection to place alongside their previous monumental body of work. VSL’s new hall‑recorded brass collection aims for maximum grandeur.Īfter you’ve spent 21 years deep‑sampling every orchestral instrument under the sun and building an archive of over six million samples, what do you do next? If you’re VSL, the answer is simple: find a new recording location and start the whole process over again.
