Thanks - very helpful video. For me the Strad came out top for the sound, but it could depend on the style of music. It's a Baroque instrument, so ideal for Bach, Vivaldi. I have it and love the tone. There is one problem with it, though - it's hard to play spread double-stopped chords. A shame, as that's quite a typical technique - Bach Partitas, Beethoven Kreutzer Sonata etc. Interested to know if you've found a way round that...

Nice review!
Do you add reverb ambience to your voice on purpose? You sound more stereo than the samples itself. 😁

[@robertosheridan740]

The VSL Synchronized Solo Violin doesn't have the dry sound option? Isn't there a way to turn the reverb off?

[@BillMcFadden]

Yes, the reverb can be turned off.

Thank you for this comparison. To me, In the context of this composition, Vienna Synchro and JB sound markedly better than other "competitors". Maybe they blend better with the Lexicon.

[@BillMcFadden]

The Lexicon was only applied to the piano and strings.

[@MarshallBanananana]

@@BillMcFadden My bad.

[@Semtex777]

Have you tried VirHarmonic ?

[@rubenmolino1480]

EXELENT ¡¡¡¡¡

[@BillMcFadden]

Thanks Ruben!

All of them are almost believable playing the shortest notes, the sustained notes reveal their true unplayability.
