Synchron Timpani I

5 Adams Artist Alpha Timpani

Synchron Timpani I features the five Adams Artist Alpha timpani (20", 23", 26", 29", and 32") of the Synchron Percussion I Collection.

The sound of these top quality instruments blends perfectly with other orchestral instrument groups. Consider the long history of timpani employed in support of majestic brass fanfares, or the combination of tremolo strings over a foundation of timpani rolls that creates a powerful dramatic tension.

5 Instruments – 12 Microphones

Every instrument was recorded using 12 microphones. You may select from four microphone positions (Standard Library) or seven different microphone positions (Full Library) and mix them to your liking, directly in the Vienna Instruments players, or using our mixing hosts Vienna Ensemble and Vienna Ensemble Pro.

Use the included and perfectly fine-tuned presets as a starting point for your own sonic creations. The natural ambience of Stage A was captured in stereo using a Decca tree, and additional microphone arrays were utilized for 5.1 surround and Auro 3D 9.1.

The included presets provide perfectly fine-tuned source material.
