July 03 2006
The Vienna Symphonic Library (VSL) has announced that the second five Vienna
Instruments Collections of the Symphonic Cube are now shipping -
Woodwinds II, Brass I, Brass II, Harps
and Percussion.
The Vienna Instruments embed intelligent Performance
Algorithms in an easy-to-use VST/AU plug-in to orchestrate a vast array of samples.
Hundreds of articulations can be combined in one Preset and on a single MIDI track.
Vienna's proprietary Performance Detection analyzes intervals, repeated notes, patterns,
and even speed in real-time and automatically summons the appropriate articulation or
nuance. |

The Symphonic Cube contains a combined total of over 550 GB / more than 800,000 stereo
samples in 44.1kHz/24 bit quality. It includes all of the samples from the Pro
Edition and the Horizon Series, plus much more, for example, Fast
Interval Performances, Trill Performances (using the speed
controller), gypsy and harsh styles, ponticello,
sul tasto, ricochet, mordents, arpeggios,
etc. New instruments include a small clarinet in Eb, a triple
horn, new timpani, and taiko drums to mention
but a few.The streaming audio-engine can pre-load
up to 25,600 stereo samples (e.g., on a 1.6 GB RAM Windows system), and play back a
theoretical total of 3,456 Articulations (Patches) on one MIDI channel. Load times are
extremely low due to pre-caching, and the RAM optimizer kicks unused samples out of
memory. The lossless real-time de-compression minimizes the use of RAM and hard disk
resources. |
| The
Vienna Instrument Engine: |
- Powerful proprietary streaming audio engine, developed by
Vienna Symphonic Library's Christian Teuscher.
- Up to 3,456 Articulations (Patches) on one MIDI channel.
- RAM pre-load of up to 25,600 stereo samples (based on 1.6
GB available RAM under Windows; 48,000 samples on a 3 GB Mac G5).
- 64 stereo voices per instance streaming from disk.
- Extremely low load times (average 1 sec. per Patch) using
pre-caching.
- Lossless real-time de-compression for using less RAM and
hard disk resources.
- RAM Optimizer kicks unused samples out of RAM.
- Pre-configured Patches.
- Performance Detection algorithms integrated in
Patches without the need to switch manually between articulations.
- Trigger comprehensive sets of articulations using hardware
controllers (MIDI learn), key switches, and speed, without ever leaving the current MIDI
channel.
- Layer Articulations for simultaneous or crossfade
performances in one Preset.
- Easily design your own Instruments using Drag & Drop.
- Switch Velocity Crossfades and Release Control on/off on
the fly.
The Vienna Instruments are available for Windows and Mac
OS X in VST and AU plug-in formats (Universal Binary on Mac). A Syncrosoft USB key
(dongle) is required for every computer running a Vienna Instrument - a ViennaKey is
provided on purchase of the complete Symphonic Cube, however, it is not included with each
Collection (it is available to buy separately). Users who already have a Syncrosoft USB
protection device (from Steinberg for instance), can use it for the Vienna Instruments too
by downloading the latest "Syncrosoft License Control Center" from the
Syncrosoft website. |
