ILIO SYNCHRON-ized Timpani Virtual Instrument

ILIO VSLSYY64 Overview

The electronic download of SYNCHRON-ized Timpani from Vienna Symphonic Library is a virtual instrument featuring a 10.9GB library of carefully sampled timpani featuring multiple articulations. Compared to the Synchron Timpani collection that was recorded on the scoring stage, the timpani presented in this SYNCHRONIZ-ized collection were recorded in a different acoustic environment with a tight, controlled ambience, allowing you to customize them with your own reverbs and effect processors, so they sit just right in your mix or score. This collection can be used on Mac or Windows computers for applications such as film production, broadcast TV, music production, and more.

Orchestral Timpani Ready for Customized Ambience

Compared to the instruments of Synchron Timpani that were recorded on the large VSL scoring stage, the instruments of the SYNCHRON-ized Collection were not only captured in a different acoustic environment, they re also different makes of the same instruments with their own individual sound characteristics and were played by different musicians, therefore adding more flexibility and a greater variety to your percussion arsenal.

Timpani A offers a variety of left and right-hand single strokes (played open or secco) as well as repetitions, static rolls, crescendo and diminuendo rolls in several lengths, glissandos, glissando rolls, and upbeats. Single strokes and static rolls are also available as an option processed with high-end studio equipment, letting you adjust the wet/dry ratio with a CC controller. Timpani B can be played with several mallets (medium-soft, medium-hard, hard, wood, felt) or fingers, and offer an additional coperto (damped) option for single strokes.

Vienna Synchron Player

The entire sample database was optimized for the Vienna Synchron Player and its advanced algorithms and features. The volume levels of all articulations have been precisely adjusted and matched, balancing the dynamic ranges of all instruments for seamless, natural performances when switching through various articulations. Dynamic rolls can be played shorter than their original length due to the release sample algorithms of the Synchron Player.
