Brass for every arrangement
Vienna Symphonic Library Synchron Brass is the perfect solution for scoring everything from a full orchestral soundtrack, writing intimate chamber music, producing cinematic trailers, or adding orchestral depth to modern productions, Synchron Brass provides the flexibility to match your creative ideas. The collection includes horns, trumpets, trombones, cimbasso, and tuba across seven solo instruments and eight ensembles, allowing you to move naturally between detailed solo passages and powerful section performances. Each instrument has been recorded to deliver a consistent, balanced sound, making it easy to combine different brass sections while maintaining realism throughout your arrangement.
Capture realistic musical expression
Brass instruments rely on subtle performance details to sound convincing, and Synchron Brass focuses on preserving those nuances. Extensive sampling captures expressive articulations including legato, vibrato, swells, flutter tonguing, and accented attacks, while carefully balanced dynamic layers ensure smooth transitions throughout your performance. Velocity crossfades remain natural and consistent, helping phrases respond musically to your playing. The result is a virtual instrument that follows your performance naturally, making expressive brass writing feel intuitive rather than programmed.
Shape your sound with Timbre Adjust
Powered by the Timbre Adjust engine, Synchron Brass gives you intelligent control over tonal character without relying solely on velocity changes. Instead of switching between multiple dynamic layers, you can alter the timbre while remaining within a single sampled layer, creating subtle changes in colour and intensity. This approach is particularly useful for brass instruments, helping preserve smooth phrasing during expressive passages, refining single-layer articulations such as powerful accented notes, and reducing unwanted velocity crossfade artefacts in solo performances.
