Studio Drums by VSL delivers meticulously sampled percussion instruments—snare, field, and piccolo drums; bass drums; concert and roto toms—designed for the Vienna Synchron Player. Ideal for composers and producers seeking authentic, high-quality drum sounds across various genres.
Compared to the instruments of Synchron Drums that were recorded on Vienna’s own scoring stage, the instruments of the Studio Collection were not only captured in a different acoustic environment, they’re also different makes of the same instruments with their own individual sound characteristics and were played by different musicians, therefore adding more flexibility and a greater variety to your percussion arsenal.
The entire sample database was optimized for the Vienna Synchron Player and its advanced algorithms and features. The volume levels of all articulations have been precisely adjusted and matched, balancing the dynamic ranges of all instruments for seamless, natural performances when switching through various articulations. Dynamic rolls of bass drums and taikos can be played shorter than their original length due to the release sample algorithms of the Synchron Player.
