Vienna, March 18, 2025 – The Vienna Symphonic Library is pleased to announce the release of Synchron Special Woodwinds, a brand-new library of six woodwind instruments. Meticulously sampled in the pristine ambience of Stage A of Vienna Synchron Stage, they all feature Vienna’s new Flow View for an intuitive and effortless playing experience. All included instruments are also available separately, starting at €79 during the introductory period:
• Synchron Bass Flute
• Synchron Contrabass Flute

• Synchron Bass Clarinet
The Synchron Special Woodwinds Collection that includes all instruments is currently available at introductory prices of €329 (reg. €399) for the Standard Library and €499 (reg. €629) for the Full Library. The difference between each Standard Library and Full Library is the number of available microphone positions.
To mark the occasion, all woodwind libraries of the company’s Synchron Series, the Studio Series, and the Big Bang Orchestra are available at discounts of up to 45%.
What’s more, the previously existing Synchron Woodwinds collection has just been updated, free of charge, with the additional Flow View. This new user interface reimagines the way users interact with these expressive instruments, keeping everything smooth, responsive, and fun.
Woodwinds Flowing with Character
The Synchron Special Woodwinds collection brings together a rare lineup of instruments, from the low registers of the contrabass flute and contrabass clarinet to the bittersweet beauty of the oboe d’amore and the brilliant expressiveness of the small clarinet in Eb. Captured with exceptional detail at the renowned Stage A of Vienna Synchron Stage, these instruments offer unparalleled realism, making them the perfect choice for composers looking to bring depth, artistic expression, and unique timbres to their ensemble.
All instruments are easily accessible with Vienna’s new Flow View. This new, easy-to-use and inspiring user interface presents the essential controls of each instrument for naturally getting into the playing flow without any technical distractions. Music creators can play with minimal effort, while algorithms take care of articulations and musical expression. With its clear layout, focusing on tone, performance, and sound, the new Flow View is easy to understand, easy on the eye, and easy to play with. For users who want to delve deeper, the previous GUI of the Synchron Player, now dubbed Precision View, is still available for access to more features and tweaking options.
