  4. VE MIDI still not working when loading 3+ GB of samples (Update w/ details for VSL team)

    I just loaded about 6.9 gigs into two matices -- so only 2 midi channels. Things worked fine when I saved as a project fileand reloaded. VE was receiving midi.

    Re: standalone instances - yes, I can run two standalone instances just fine except for the fact that one instance produces unusable audio.  My soundcard (HDSP 9632) is multi-client, so I can route the two VE instances to different outputs on the card.  However, the audio only works from one instance.  The second instance produces audio, but it's horribly broken up and not usable.

    But I can get all of the MIDI channels to work that way...  so it's a choice: do you want audio or MIDI?

    Whenever I open a second instance of standalone VE, the computer crashes and reboots -- very consistently..... This happens on both slaves....arhhhggg.....

    Does your sound card support multi-client operation?  A hard reboot like that sounds like a hardware problem...

    I believe so. Is ASIO 2.0 multiclient?

    Here's the card:

    Right now I'm using an ASUS P5W-DH (which, IIRC, is what VSL is using on their test machine).  Previously I had an ASUS P5B-E.  Both behave the same...

    VSL has been very quiet on this problem over the last couple of weeks - any help here, folks?

    I tried two MOTU 4x4 MIDI interfaces yesterday and they behave the same, as well.  The hardware shows MIDI activity but the VE shows nothing or only one port sometimes.

    Hi,

    we are working on it. For now, one workaround seems to be to stop and start the VE engine (sometimes more than once) - at least that works in our testing environment.

    Let us know if that improves your situation.

    Best,

    Paul,

    Unfortunately, pressing the "stop engine/start engine" button does not fix the problem on my system. Still getting no midi input.

    I'm sure you guys will find an answer, though.

    Stopping/Starting works for me every now and then but not very often.

    Maybe it has something to do with how the stars are aligned - I'll start watching the astrological charts and see if there's any correlation...[:P]

    It's fixed, and the update will be available in the next days. Final testing was a little delayed because of NAMM show.

    was this ever fixed? I'm having a very similar problem now running xp64 on a mac pro. I thought it was a midi over lan issue, but then I found this thread. I'm using the latest build - 3388
