VSL’s Next-gen Orchestral String Library
Vienna Symphonic Library's Synchron Strings Pro combines authentic-sounding artistic expression, super-detailed articulations, and hyper-realistic note transitions into a next-generation orchestral string library. Like previous libraries, Synchron Strings Pro boasts VSL’s acclaimed legatos, complete with portamento and flautando, lightning-fast phrases, and an arsenal of attack and release variants. This orchestral powerhouse also provides you with comprehensive control over vibrato and dynamics. Featuring recordings of high-level musicians, Synchron Strings Pro Standard Library is ideal for album work, as well as television and game scoring that requires delivery in stereo.

Endless articulations and phrases
We have a number of pro-level composers here at Sweetwater, and they’ve been highly impressed by Synchron Strings Pro’s astonishing level of realism. VSL accomplished this using a cutting-edge sampling system to capture thousands of articulations from virtuosic performances by a well-rehearsed team of top-shelf musicians. A well-trained ear can oftentimes differentiate between an orchestral virtual instrument and a real-world orchestra by homing in on the note beginnings and releases. That’s why Synchron Strings Pro includes all of the originally played attack and release variants. Whether your composition demands a marcato attack, a soft attack, or an even softer crescendo, you’ll hear exactly what the musicians played, not a time-stretched, MIDI-warped version of it. You also get thousands of lightning-fast legato phrases that were recorded in their entirety for a natural-sounding flow — no programming necessary.
About Synchron Stage Vienna
Synchron Stage Vienna, located on Vienna's historic Wiener Rosenhügel, 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.
