The mysticism of the choir’s deepest voices
The experience of hearing six contrabass singers fill Synchron Stage Vienna’s large Stage A
with the robust sound of a low C is undeniably mesmerizing.
And they can go even lower!
合唱团最深沉声音的神秘感
六位低音歌唱家在大舞台 A 上演奏低音 C 的强劲音色时，
这种体验无疑会令人着迷。
其实，他们还能唱得更低！
Basso Profondo singers, whose voices are distinguished by their rich,
resonant, and profoundly deep vocal quality,
stand out for their ability to reach the lower limits of the human vocal range,
typically encompassing notes as low as two octaves below middle C (C2) or even lower.
Also called oktavists, they often sing an octave below the bass part as soloists,
and to capture an entire ensemble of these exceptionally gifted vocalists was a special treat for our team!
Basso Profondo 歌唱家的声音浑厚,
他们的嗓音以丰富、共鸣和深沉的音质而著称,
音域通常低至中 C（C2）以下两个八度，甚至更低。
他们也被称为oktavists，作为独唱演员，他们的演唱通常比低音部分低一个八度,
能见这些天赋异禀的合奏，对 Vienna 团队来说是一种特殊的享受！
As with the Vienna Boys Choir,
the idea for this Collection was born after the production of choral recordings
for the Amazon Prime fantasy series “The Rings of Power”, the prequel to “Lord of the Rings”.
The essential element in Bear McCreary’s score is the use of choirs,
which were recorded at Synchron Stage Vienna in 2020 and 2021.
At first, we quite frankly questioned whether we could fulfill the composer’s wish for a basso profondo choir.
However, working in the musical city of Vienna has its advantages
and soon we were able to assemble an astounding ensemble of bass vocalists
who were prepared to offer their talents in a choir,
not only for the score recordings, but also for the creation of a sample library.
与维也纳童声合唱团一样、
也是在为亚马逊 Prime 奇幻剧集《魔戒前传》（The Rings Power）制作合唱录音后，
萌生了制作这套作品集的想法。
Bear McCreary 的配乐中最重要的元素是合唱团，
这些合唱团于 2020 年和 2021 年在维也纳同步舞台录制。
起初，Vienna 质疑能否实现作曲家的愿望，使用低音大合唱。
然而，在音乐之都维也纳工作有其优势，
很快，就组建了一支由男低音歌唱家组成的令人惊叹的合唱团
他们愿意在合唱团中奉献自己的才华，
不仅是录音，还愿意为建立采样音源出一份力。
The enthusiasm of the artists is palpable in the recordings of this library.
The pitch range of this unique ensemble spans from a very low A1 to A#3.
音源的录音中可以感受到艺术家们的热情。
这个独特的合奏音域是从极低的 A1 到 A#3。
Articulations include short notes, long notes,
legatos and marcatos of the vowels AA (ah) and UU (oo), also sung espressivo, sforzato,
as short and long crescendos, and as short and long diminuendos.
There’s also humming as well as a variety of consonants in combination with short and long vowels.
What’s more, the wide range of lower register effects and articulations such as “om”, “hey”, deep shouting,
prayer-like performances, rises and falls, laughs, creepy sounds, clusters,
and others make this unique library a treasure trove of archaic and other-worldly human sounds.
发音包括短音、长音，
元音 AA 和 UU 的 egatos 和 marcatos，也可以唱成 espressivo 和 sforzato、
以及或短或长的渐强音和长短渐弱音。
此外，还有哼唱以及各种辅音与长短元音的组合。
此外，还有各种低音域效果和发音，如 om、hey、深沉的呼喊，
祈祷般的表演、高低起伏、笑声、令人毛骨悚然的声音等等，
使这个独特的音源成为一个值得收藏的人类声音宝库。
Multiple Microphone Positions
To capture the spectacular ambience of “Stage A” of Synchron Stage,
our engineers employed seven separate phase-coherent microphone configurations
to provide a broad range of room options.
All of them are available as separate channels in the mixer section of the Vienna Synchron Player
that lets you create the sound according to your needs and liking.
多麦克风位置
为了捕捉同步舞台 "舞台 A "的壮观氛围，
工程师采用了七个独立的相位相干麦克风配置，
以提供广泛的房间选择。
在维也纳同步播放器的混音部分，这些麦克风都可以作为独立通道使用，
可根据自己的需要和喜好创建音效。
Pre-configured mixer presets provide a wide variety of tonal characteristics,
from close to distant, from classic to ambient, from airy to church reverb.
As with all Synchron Libraries, you can mix the Basso Profondo Choir in stereo, 5.1 surround
or even Dolby Atmos and 9.1 Auro 3D, or any other immersive audio format.
预配置混音器预设提供了多种音色特性，
从近景到远景，从古典到环境，从空气到教堂混响，应有尽有。
与所有 Synchron 库一样，可将 Basso Profondo 合唱团混音成立体声、5.1 环绕声，
甚至杜比 Atmos 和 9.1 Auro 3D 或任何其他身临其境的音频格式。
1. Close Mic – Stereo
2. Mid Mic – Stereo (L/R)
3. Main/Room Mic – Decca Tree Stereo (L/R)
4. Main/Room Mic – Decca Tree Mono (Center)
5. Main Surround – Stereo (L/R)(Full)
6. High Stereo (3D) – Stereo (L/R)(Full)
7. High Surround (3D) – Stereo (L/R)(Full)
1. Close Mic – Stereo
2. Mid Mic – Stereo (L/R)
3. Main/Room Mic – Decca Tree Stereo (L/R)
4. Main/Room Mic – Decca Tree Mono (Center)
5. Main Surround – Stereo (L/R) （完整版）
6. High Stereo (3D) – Stereo (L/R)（完整版）
7. High Surround (3D) – Stereo (L/R)（完整版）
The main surround microphone settings may also be used instead of the main stereo room mics
in order to achieve a wider and more ambient mix.
Blending surround signals with the other microphone signals creates a denser,
more lush overall sound, even in stereo applications.
也可使用主环绕声麦克风设置来代替主立体声房间麦克风，
以获得更宽广、更有氛围的混音效果。
将环绕声信号与其他麦克风信号混合，可以产生更密集、更丰富的整体声音，
即使在立体声应用中也是如此。
Room Mix Presets feature an excellent mix-down to stereo from the Decca tree and surround mic positions
for a CPU and RAM-saving sound that’s perfectly balanced right out-of-the-box.
A host of Mixer Presets is available in the categories of “Decca Tree Multi-Mic”,
“Surround to Stereo Downmix”, and “Surround”.
房间混音预设可将 Decca 树形麦克风和环绕麦克风位置出色地混音为立体声，
节省 CPU 和 RAM，开箱即可获得完美平衡的声音。
在迪卡树多麦克风类别中提供了大量混音预置，
环绕声到立体声缩混环绕声等类别。
Notation Program Integration
You’ll find Expression Maps for Cubase and Dorico
as well as Soundsets for Sibelius under "Additionals" in your Vienna Assistant.
记谱程序集成
