Huge, Flexible String Library
Those in need of a comprehensive orchestral string library should seriously consider VSL’s Synchron-ized Dimension Strings I. Comprised of five flexible string sections that have been optimized for the Vienna Synchron Player, Dimension Strings I features access to each individual musician from each ensemble thanks to Synchron Stage impulse responses (IR). This enables you to shape stage placement and reverb which, coupled with new improvements to dynamics and articulations, results in authentic string ensemble sounds. Plus, real-time humanized presets offer accurate performances that impressed many of our Sweetwater composers. VSL Synchron-ized Dimension Strings I also sounds great right out of the box, especially when used in conjunction with other Synchron and Synchron-ized libraries. Finally, Dimension Strings I can be used with Komplete Kontrol Keyboards and Maschine thanks to support for Native Instruments’ NKS format.

Included Synchron Player
Synchron Synchron-ized Dimension Strings I includes VSL's dedicated Synchron Player. Driven by a powerful new audio engine, the Synchron Player delivers flawless streaming performance and a new level of advanced simplicity. Just step through the articulations, select a variation, and audition how the pre-configured controllers (Density, Bow Style, and Velocity Crossfade) affect the loaded preset. The Synchron Player also incorporates an internal mixer with 5-band equalization, individual delay settings for runtime compensation, algorithmic reverb, polarity switching, and panorama controls, as well as a specially designed convolution reverb derived from Vienna MIR Pro that features the world-class ambience of Synchron Stage Vienna's 5,813- square-foot main hall.
About Synchron Stage Vienna
Synchron Stage Vienna, located on Vienna's historic Wiener Rosenhuegel, can accommodate a 130-piece orchestra and has proven its mettle over the decades not only for film score recording, but also for sampling sessions. With its massive concrete foundation, room-in-room construction, sound insulation, and specially designed HVAC system, the studio boasts an ultra-low noise floor of 16dBA, even with the air conditioning running. Stage A sports a reverb time of 1.8 seconds — and unlike many other scoring stages, there is no low-frequency masking effect. Instruments sound warm and punchy, with superior depth and panoramic localization.
First-call musicians, first-class samples
At Sweetwater, we hold the Vienna Symphonic Library in high regard; that's because we're picky about our orchestral samples. It all starts with the musicians. Since VSL's inception, first-call musicians have been providing the sound and character of these instruments as soloists and ensemble leaders. This approach is largely responsible for the impressive sonic authority and authenticity we have come to expect from VSL virtual instruments.
