VSL Duality Strings Essentials

VSL Duality Strings Essentials

VSL Duality Strings Essentials gives you the sound of two string sections recorded at the same time – a large ensemble on Stage A and a more compact group in the less reverberant Stage B at Synchron Stage Vienna – in a streamlined, easy-to-play edition of Synchron Duality Strings.

Key features

• 79 players in total: 52 on Stage A and 27 on Stage B, playing together
• Blend the big and small sections with one controller, or use each on its own
• Flow View switches articulations automatically from your playing speed and velocity
• Curated articulation set covering staccato, sustains, legato (including the free Legato Largo update), portamento, tremolo and pizzicato
• Can be upgraded to the Standard or Full Library of Synchron Duality Strings (regular)

Delivery and licence: VSL Duality Strings Essentials is supplied as a download, so there is nothing to ship. After purchase you receive a licence code by email; redeem it in your MyVSL account at vsl.co.at, then download and install the library with the free Vienna Assistant. Licences are activated through an iLok account, either on a physical iLok 2 or iLok 3 USB key or in an iLok Cloud session (iLok Cloud needs a constant internet connection, but no USB key). The library plays in the included Vienna Synchron Player, which works as an AU, VST, VST3 or AAX Native plug-in in a compatible host. Minimum system: Windows 10 (64-bit, latest update) with an Intel Core i7 or AMD Athlon 64 X2, or macOS 12 Monterey (latest update) or later with an Intel Core i7; 16 GB RAM; and an SSD (M.2, SATA 6 or USB 3/3.1 with UASP) with at least 13 GB free. The download is 13 GB and contains 59,238 samples.
