Vienna Symphonic Library Bassoon 2 Software Download

Since the year 2000, Vienna Instruments has sampled every instrument of the symphonic orchestra, and many more, to the utmost detail. For a single instrument, like the solo violin in the Solo Strings I Collection, it took more than one year of ongoing recording sessions in a custom-built studio facility, the Silent Stage, to produce over 40,000 flawless samples—an unprecedented amount of nuanced articulations, not available elsewhere. Today, the Vienna Super Package includes more than two million samples.

Both the instrument as well as the performance of bassoonist Stepan Turnovsky, a frequent first bassoonist with the Vienna Philharmonic, proved to be perfect for this sample library, Bassoon 2. His ability to play exceptionally broad tonal reaches, and to change his playing position to compensate for variances from note to note, coupled with the Vienna team’s extensive array of mic positions, result in an extraordinarily precise sampled sound.

Consequently, two solo bassoons are now available in our instrumental collection. Bassoon 2, with a range spanning from tenor to bass, offers an extended pitch range from Bb to F2, and is therefore also recommended to perform as first bassoon.

The flexibility, authenticity, musicality and sound quality of samples are just a few reasons why Oscar- and Emmy-winning composers, Grammy-winning artists and music producers all over the globe, including hobbyists and music educators, rely on Vienna Instruments. Every collection comes with both the Vienna Instruments player and Vienna Ensemble.
