VSL: Special Edition Plus

This DVD collection is the ideal expansion to the Vienna Special Edition and offers new articulations for all string, brass and woodwind instruments included in the Special Edition Standard and Extended Libraries. All users of the Vienna Special Edition can now quickly and conveniently add articulations they might have been missing until now. The samples of the Special Edition PLUS are not included in the Vienna Special Edition, but have been specifically selected for this collection.

For example, while the Solo Violin’s articulations in the Vienna Special Edition include staccato, détaché, sustained, sforzato, tremolo, pizzicato, legato, and portamento, the PLUS collection supplements these with the addition of the following articulations for the solo violin: Short détaché, fortepiano, snap-pizzicato, col legno, trills 1 & 2, Repetition Performances (legato & spiccato), fast repetitions (150, 170, 190 bpm), harmonics (staccato & sustain), and ponticello (staccato, sustain, tremolo).

Please note that the Special Edition PLUS contains some Matrices that also include Patches from the Vienna Special Edition. Therefore the installation of the Vienna Special Edition DVD Collection or Download Collection is required to load these Matrices.

Your purchase also entitles you to download the free Vienna Ensemble 2 mixing and host software.

The Special Edition PLUS Full Library contains 31 GB of uncompressed sample data in 44.1kHz/24-bit. Due to an innovative optimization process, the Vienna Instruments engine decompresses the samples in real-time, so that they take up only 21 GB of space on your hard disk. Please note: Even if you licensed the Standard Library only, the Full Library of your Collection gets installed on your hard drive since Standard and Extended Libraries can’t be separated due to structural database requirements.

The instrument groups of the Special Edition PLUS are also available as download products.

Both DVD collections – the Vienna Special Edition and the Special Edition PLUS – are together available as the Special Edition Bundle at a reduced bundle price.
