What is SYNCHRON-ized SPECIAL KEYBOARDS?

From baroque to avant-garde

  • Harpsichord, harmonium, prepared piano
  • Optimized for our new Vienna Synchron Player
  • FX Presets for Unexpected and Mysterious Sounds
  • Authentic positioning in our Synchron Stage Vienna, one of the best scoring stages in the world
  • Sound ready for production, out of the box

This library is based on the VI Collection Special Keyboards, optimized and enhanced for the Vienna Synchron Player. With their direct preset and patch structure, the various records and techniques are clearly defined and easily accessible. Expertly crafted mixing presets with synchron stage Vienna's custom boost responses make placing these instruments at various points on the scoring stage within your quick and simple mix, delivering the perfect ready-to-use sound. You can also turn off the convolution reverb and algorithmic reverb of the player and place the dried samples in any other environment.

In addition to the "classic" presets, the new FX Presets offer supernatural, mysterious and unexpected sounds, making use of Synchron Player's built-in mixer with its built-in audio effects and routing options.

The harpsichord has a famous and bright sound with rich tones. Usually a Baroque instrument, the harpsichord played a minimal role in classical and romantic music. In modern literature, however, it has been rediscovered by a wide range of musicians and is also used poignantly and effectively in movies and music for TV. These two hand instruments offer the choirs 8'solo, 8' double and tutti (a combination of two choirs of 8' and a choir of 4').

The harmonium is a free-of-the-line instrument, which means that the air that passes through reeds of different lengths causes them to vibr. Unlike organ tubes, the harmonic's reeds produce more disharmonious tones, creating a unique undulating sound.

The prepared piano is a technique that became known to a large audience around 1940 and is mainly associated with the innovative composer John Cage, who inserted objects such as erasers, nails, wire and paper between the strings of a piano causing them to produce additional tones, harmonics, or percussive sounds. In the recording sessions, our team also articulated the strings of the Imperial Bösendorfer with their own hands (for example, to create evocative glissandos) and with wooden sledgehammers to achieve a multitude of sounds and cool colors.

World-class acoustics

For SYNCHRON-ized special keyboards, our software developers have added a specifically designed convolution reverb derived from Vienna MIR Pro for Synchron Player, featuring the exceptional and unique ambisure of the 540 m² (5,813 sq.ft.) main hall of the Synchron Stage Vienna. Perfectly designed reverb and positioning presets combine custom boost responses for many points on stage with expertly crafted reverb settings. By adding the Synchron Stage Vienna Stage A environment to the dry samples in real time, SYNCHRON special keyboards blend seamlessly with any other product in our Synchron series, resulting in ready-to-produce sound "out of the box".
