The Symphonic Cube, Now Complete
The Symphonic Cube is now shipping from dealers and distributors. All 10 Vienna Instruments that make up the Symphonic Cube are now available as plug-ins in AU, VST (Mac & PC) and MacIntel (public beta) formats as well as stand-alone versions.

The company's website provides helpful new Video Tutorials as well as Audio Demos. The impressive realizations of Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings, Holst's St. Paul's Suite, Händel's Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, as well as compositions from Vienna Instruments users like Guy Bacos' Concerto Cadenza or Mickey's Berlin Fantasia demonstrate the utmost realism and sonic distinction of Vienna's new sample-based Virtual Instruments.
