Supported applications and workflow integration
Synchron Brass is used as a software instrument inside your DAW via Synchron Player, played on instrument tracks with MIDI and managed using keyswitches and CC controls for articulations, dynamics, and mic blending. It can output multiple microphone stems or pre-mixed master tracks, and supports parameter automation to facilitate the handoff from scoring to post mixing. It can also work with workflow assistants or macro scripts to auto-assign keyswitches, mark sections, and batch-render tracks/stems to improve delivery efficiency. Compatible with most major DAWs such as Logic Pro, Cubase/Nuendo, Pro Tools, Studio One, Ableton Live, Reaper, Digital Performer, etc.
