Expand your percussion palette
Synchron Percussion II adds a wide selection of orchestral percussion beyond the standard essentials, giving you fresh sounds for film scoring, game music, concert works, and modern productions. Alongside instruments such as vibraphone, China gong, roto-toms, rainmakers, and anvil, the library offers a broad range of playing styles to suit everything from understated textures to bold rhythmic passages.
Perform with expressive detail
Every instrument includes carefully sampled single hits across multiple velocity layers with several round robins for natural repetition. Rolls are available as both static performances for smooth velocity-controlled dynamics and dynamic crescendos or diminuendos recorded at different lengths. Release samples respond automatically when notes are released, helping transitions feel more convincing during playback. Included MIDI loops for taikos and timpani can be previewed directly in the Synchron Player before being dragged into your DAW, making it quick to build rhythmic foundations or develop orchestral percussion patterns.
Shape your ideal stage sound
Recorded on Vienna Synchron Stage A, the library captures the natural ambience of a world-class scoring stage with warm, punchy percussion and clear stereo localisation. The Standard Library provides four microphone positions, while the Full Library expands this with seven additional positions for even greater mixing flexibility. Using the Synchron Player mixer, you can blend microphone signals to create anything from intimate close recordings to spacious orchestral perspectives, tailoring the sound to suit your production.
Mix for stereo, surround, and beyond
Synchron Percussion II includes a wide range of production-ready mixer presets designed for different musical styles and workflows. Traditional Decca Tree configurations sit alongside processed presets featuring compression, delays, algorithmic reverb, and creative effects for larger, more cinematic percussion sounds. Surround to Stereo presets create a wider stereo image by incorporating surround microphones, while dedicated surround presets support 5.1 and immersive formats including Dolby Atmos and Auro 3D. Individual drums on supported instruments can also be routed to separate outputs, giving you precise control over stereo placement and mixing within your DAW.
