Playback Templates allows for a fantastic "Plug & Play" experience in Dorico. With the Dorico Wizard - directly built into Vienna Assistant - users can create their own, custom-tailored playback templates.
Currently, we offer Dorico settings for the following VSL libraries:
Entry Level:
- Synchron Prime Edition
- Studio Special Editions
- Soft Imperial
Synchron Series:
- Synchron Woodwinds
- Synchron World Winds
- Synchron Brass
- Synchron Duality Strings
- Synchron Elite Strings
- Synchron Strings Pro
- Synchron Pianos
- Synchron Harp

- Vienna Boys Choir
Studio Series:
- SYzd Woodwinds
- SYzd Single Woodwind Packs
- SYzd Solo Strings
- SYzd Harps
- SYzd Percussion
- SYzd Voices
- SYzd Saxophones
Important
Dorico 3.5 or higher is mandatory as VSL Expression Maps & Endpoint Configurations do not work with earlier versions.
Please keep your VSL sample players up to date. You can check for the latest updates in your Vienna Assistant software:
We have prepared a series of Dorico screencasts featuring our VSL libraries in action.
- 01 VSL Example Project
- 02 Forrest Gump Suite (Alan Silvestri)
- 03 Basic Instinct - Main Theme (Jerry Goldsmith)
- 04 Pavane pour une infante défunte (Maurice Ravel)
- 05 Hope over Sorrow (Guy Bacos)
With the introduction of Dorico Wizard, VSL offers a highly improved and more comfortable installation process for playback templates. Nevertheless, John Barron's live session (Nov, 2020) on VSL Expression maps is still a valuable source for everyone new to VSL & Dorico.
