VSL has finally released their initial (not yet complete) downloads for Synchron Strings. They're pretty amazing! I had a chance to play with them in Notion, wrote a simple ruleset, and made this video:

More complex samples to come, but let me know what you think!

At less than $500 on sale they're a very good bargain for such a complete and beautiful string library. The Early Bird pricing ends soon!

Enjoy!

Michael

Ruleset attached, if anyone is interested!

Merry Xmas Michael!!

From snowbound Montreal --well not really, let's say just ok for a White Christmas. . . :-)
Breaking news: Santa's left 15 minutes ago. I've just unwrapped your gift... and here's my question:

Should I be impressed, amazed or plain subdued!? ;-)

I've just added yet another item to my shopping list.

Right now, I'm experimenting with a novel way of composing symphonies. So I'll really need those strings the sooner the better!

The new programmable Teddy Bear will have to wait for a while.

Later

Hello,
This looks promising though maybe not easy at first sight (I'm a beginner user of Notion). I'm using the rules for VSL found here: https://support.presonus.com/hc/en-us/articles/210049003-Using-the-Vienna-Symphonic-Library-with-Notion.
They work pretty well, except that the appassionata basses are mismatched with cellos. I opened a ticket for that but I'm not expecting this to be fixed before quite some time... if ever.

I just bought the Synchron Strings 1 and would be grateful to find the same kind of rules to easily control Synchron Strings through Notion 6.
I tried to download your file but you're obviously a Mac user and I'm using Windows, so I can't use your file. Frustrating :D

Do you know accessible tutorials I could use to try and make my own rules?
I must admit I haven't yet read Notion's manual about this... Is it thorough enough to help me in this task or are there any other reliable ressources to achieve this?

I guess this topic isn't the ideal place to explain how the rules work and how to create them.

Anyway, your work looks very nice. I hope that I'll be able to achieve something like this on my side, or use someone else's kind efforts if I fail... and on Windows!

Xavier, the rules are simple text files. It should be OS agnostic, but you might need to change the ".prules" extension to whatever extension rules get in Windows.

Can any windows users help out here?
