Vienna Symphonic Library SYNCHRON-ized Appassionata Strings Crossgrade from VI Appassionata Strings I Full (Download)

SYNCHRON-ized Appassionata Strings is a virtual instrument with a library that accurately captures the lush and larger-than-life cinematic sound of large strings ensembles. It offers production-ready sounds right out of the box, for film and game scoring, trailer music, or sound design.

The ensembles of twenty first violins, twenty second violins, fourteen violas, twelve cellos, and ten double basses were recorded in the tightly controlled ambience of Vienna s purpose-built Silent Stage and virtually placed on the large Stage A of Synchron Stage Vienna using the Synchron Player s integrated convolution reverb technology.

In addition to the previously existing articulations of Appassionata Strings, the library comes with non-vibrato sustains, legatos, and portamentos for more versatile and flexible expressive options. New sustains with very soft attacks allow for especially gentle beginnings of notes. The volume levels of all articulations were completely overhauled and provide perfectly balanced levels not only among the ensembles themselves, but also in interaction with Synchron Strings I and SYNCHRON-ized Chamber Strings.

Software requires a ViennaKey USB protection device or other USB eLicenser, if one is not already on the system (available separately).
