The Vienna Symphonic Library has announced the release of four new Single Packs for its Synchron Special Brass collection, further expanding the palette of characterful brass instruments recorded in the large Stage A of Vienna Synchron Stage. The new additions – Synchron Wagner Tuba, Synchron Contrabass Trombone, Synchron Euphonium, and Synchron Contrabass Tuba – feature the innovative Flow View for intuitive performance control and effortless playing experience.
Synchron Special Brass
Synchron Special Brass will eventually consist of 11 individual Single Packs. The first 10 Single Packs are available now, Synchon Wagner Tuba Ensemble will be released very soon:
- Synchron Trumpet (Bb, muted).
- Synchron Trumpet Ensemble (muted).
- Synchron Piccolo Trumpet.

- Synchron Contrabass Trombone.

Recorded in the pristine, Hollywood-proven ambience of Stage A, each instrument of Synchron Special Brass captures not only its unique tonal identity, but also the natural spatial depth and clarity that have become synonymous with the Synchron Series. From heroic low-end foundations to warm, lyrical inner voices, these instruments provide both weight and nuance for film, game, and concert music alike.
The Wagner Tuba, originally conceived by Richard Wagner for his Ring cycle, fills the tonal space between horn and trombone with a noble, historically rich voice, traditionally performed by horn players. The Contrabass Trombone extends the trombone family into its lowest register, delivering a dark, metallic timbre capable of shifting from restrained solemnity to thunderous power. With its velvety, singing tone, the Euphonium adds refined warmth and lyrical expressiveness, while the Contrabass Tuba anchors the brass section with the deepest and richest resonance of the family, offering a rounder, darker timbre than its smaller counterparts.
All four Single Packs feature a comprehensive set of articulations, including short and long notes, various legato types, dynamic articulations such as crescendos and decrescendos in multiple lengths, as well as trills, flutter tongue, and repetitions where applicable. Multiple microphone positions and expertly crafted mixer presets allow users to seamlessly integrate each instrument into any orchestral, cinematic, or experimental context.
