Proceed with Speed

De Vienna Instruments gebruikersinterface is duidelijk ingedeeld en eenvoudig in het gebruik, wat de gebruiker veel werkplezier geeft. Bekijk ook eens de Video Tutorials die Vienna haar (potentiële) gebruikers biedt!
In een notendop:
Voorgeconfigureerde, inspirerende patches, voor intuïtief spelen zonder leercurve.
Dankzij de Performance Detection algoritmen, geïntegreerd in de patches, hoef je zelf niet handmatig te schakelen tussen articulaties.
Trigger zelf middels een hardware controller tussen verscheidene articulaties (dankzij Midi Learn functionaliteit), key switches en snelheid, zonder van midi-kanaal te wisselen.
Layer articulaties voor gecombineerde of crossfade performances binnen één preset.
Eenvoudig ontwerpen van eigen instrumenten, middels Drag&Drop.
Schakel Velocity Crossfades en Release Control aan/uit tijdens het spelen

De Engine
Extreem krachtige streaming audio engine, ontwikkeld door Vienna Symphonic Library’s schepper, Christian Teuscher. Tot 3.456 articulaties (Patches) op één midi-kanaal! RAM pre-load van tot wel 25.600 stereo samples (bij beschikbaarheid van 1,6 GB beschikbaar RAM geheugen onder Windows; tot 48.000 samples bij 3 GB / Mac G5). 64 stereo stemmen per uitvoering van de plug-in (direct-from-disk).
Extreem lage laadtijden (gemiddeld 1 sec. per patch) dankzij pre-caching.
Verliesloze real-time decompressie om gebruik van RAM geheugen en harde schijf in te perken.
RAM Optimizer trapt ongebruikte samples weer uit het geheugen.

Interval Detection
Biedt (real-time) natuurlijke intervallen en transities voor legato, portamento, glissando, spiccato, marcato en détaché stijlen.

Repetition Detection
Laat je herhaalde noten in legato, portato, staccato, spiccato stijlen natuurlijker klinken, ongeacht het tempo!

Pattern and Trill Detection
Voorkomt gelijktijdig gebruik van dezelfde sample (met alle bij-effecten van dien), zelfs bij de meest complexe frasen!

Speed Detection
Het gedetecteerde speeltempo triggert automatisch de juiste samples en schakelt naadloos over tussen de verschillende articulaties.

Vienna Instruments
Standard & Extended
Elk van de 10 collecties wordt geleverd met het Software Instrument en de standaard library/geluidenset op dvd. Elke collectie biedt voor de standaard prijs niet alleen de geluiden, maar ook het Software Instrument, dus de audio engine en haar gebruikersinterface, plus de standaard geluidenset. Maar je kunt gratis, gedurende 30 dagen tevens de Extended Library proberen!

Christian Eisenberger, Katharina Traunfellner, Rubén Dubrovski, Martin Deuring. These four soloists have invested their life’s blood and hard-won experience (from many years of international concert work) into the Vienna Instruments. Sensitive and clear, exact and homogeneous, their performances are technically perfect and utterly convincing in their musicality. Not only are they in command of their instruments but, after several years of working for the Vienna Symphonic Library, they also know exactly what is required of them to create ideal samples. Their performances at the Silent Stage come alive again in this Vienna Instrument.

Apart from the entire sample treasury of the Horizon Series’ Solo Strings Edition, this Vienna Instrument contains many new articulations; “Zigane”, the leisurely “smeared” portamentos, are particularly impressive as Interval Performances with the new audio engine’s algorithms. Another new articulation group is the fast Interval Performances in legato, marcato, and spiccato. Additional “harsh” articulations are played with an especially raw, almost brutal attack, and now are available as superbly effective Interval and Repetition Performances. There are also special Performance Trills, repetitions in spiccato and ricochet articulations, sustains with fading vibrato, ponticello, sul tasto, and numerous natural and artificial harmonics.

Product activation:
Vienna Instruments require the ViennaKey!
This USB protection device by eLicenser (formerly Syncrosoft) is not included in the box of any collection, it is a separate item you have to get additionally. So you’ll have to order at least one ViennaKey with your first purchase. It will be put inside the shopping basket automatically but can be deleted if not required. Customers who order the complete SYMPHONIC CUBE will get one ViennaKey for free (not shown in the basket). If you already own another eLicenser USB protection device (e.g., from Steinberg or Arturia), you can use it for the VIENNA INSTRUMENTS, too. Each dongle can store up to 100 product licenses.
Additionally an internet connection on any computer is required to authorize a VSL product.

So, what’s the final verdict?
VSL Solo Strings set out to provide a comprehensive library of solo string articulations with a focus on playability, ease of integration into existing templates (very dry samples, so fits anywhere with a little help from the reverb) and speed and stability. It succeeds in all those areas, and then some. If you need a solo strings library that is light enough on resources to run on a portable machine without hiccups, yet at the same time will offer you almost anything you can possibly want in terms of articulations for your solo string work, look no further!
