I had the strenght to skip the Synchron CFX (even if I would need that kind of piano in my template), but today I purchased Strings FX I (standard).
If you trust my word, it's a must buy. I think I will simply delete a couple of strings fx I have in my template because this one is simply better, easier to navigate, much more playable, and the new Synchron Player looks very promising and already impressive in terms of performances.
I really don't have that amount of space on my SSDs at the moment.Then you definitely have to buy Synchron CFX :D
Curious if you also happen to own Symphobia 1 or 2, how does the selection of string FX there compare to Synchron FX?
Thanks
Can’t really compare them. Symphobia’s FX are static whereas with VSL’s your able to manipulate them to suit your taste. You can spend hours experimenting with them until you come up with something interesting and new. The different columns allow for a ‘roll the dice’ way of finding new and exciting devices.Curious if you also happen to own Symphobia 1 or 2, how does the selection of string FX there compare to Synchron FX?

Anyone know if any of the articulations (like the glissandi and "rise and hit" articulations for example) are tempo synced to your host? That is one thing that bugged me about the old recorded runs and glisses, that even with VI Pro they were not able to be automatically synced to your DAW tempo - you had to fuss around with the time stretching in VI pro.
Also, the mic controls over the specific close mics (violin 1, violin 2, viola, etc) is AWESOME! Is that in both versions of the product?
Hey,No..not tempo Sync. And there's no stretch feature in Synchron Player at the moment (afaik).
Close Mics are awesome and different from what a close mic does generally. You can solo some close mics and get a totally new sound to play with.
Yes full version. You should check the website to see if close mics are in the standard version as well. If so, yes, you can obtain a dry sound with the regular version as well.Hey,
So you have the full version ? Is it possible to get a"dry" sound with Synchron FX strings, I've listened to all the walkthrough and I can't really know. If I buy it, I'll buy the "standard" edition, any recommandation ? Thanks
Yes full version.
I’ve never used Symphobia. Only know what I’ve seen from walkthroughs and it seems to have a fair bit of risers, runs, clusters and is on sale for the same price as Synchron FX currently.
Would you say they aren’t really comparable because Synchron FX is more weighed toward interesting string textures like the Spitfire Evos?
And compared to Evos, is Synchron an impressive addition for you?
Thanks Ka00, and by the way according to their mail, the price at Time and Space is even better today... : "more when you use code TSMAY15 at the checkout today" The final price is 202€ !I can confirm that close mics are included in the standard version and also that you can obtain a relatively dry sound with this library. I was concerned that you couldn't based on the demos.
Sorry for you !Oh man, I wish I had known about that last night!!
Are there articulations that are left out of the standard library?
The additional microphones in the Full Library are not only useful for surround but for stereo mixes as well. Think of them as additional options for your mix. Some of these extra mic positions from Full Library are included in the Standard but only as a down-mix via the Room Mix so no independant control.
