Vienna Symphonic Libraries (VSL) Offers samples that incorporate their passion for music and their instrument mastery!


I fell in love with VSL when I discovered their Big Bang Orchestra Range. The entire Synchron Stage Orchestra (and certain sections, as well as a choir) playing together – all at once, with multiple microphones. Capturing the sheer power of a massive orchestra with the signature acoustics of Synchron Vienna’s Stage. Head over to their walkthrough videos if you have your mind set on a specific sound. Feel also free to contact me as I am happy to share a specific audio snippet so you can decide whether it is right for your project.

Please note that I am not offering any VST’s or Plugins for sale nor offer any copies of the actual software - If you want to purchase these, links to the relevant developers have been provided.
