    Hi Edgar,

    I´ll have to admit that this was a misunderstanding at the clinic. I meant a new optimized new version for VE PRO in combination with Logic 9.1 is being tested right now.

    Vienna Instruments 64 bit for OS X is also being tested, but I cannot promise how fast it will be released.

    Please let us know when a 64 bit version of the player plugin is ready.  I'd like to start getting some VSL instruments, but at this point I might as well wait until they are running in a 64 bit version.

    Thanks.

    Hi

    We are quite a few months on now.  Is the 64 bit version coming out soon? At present if Ioad up 10 instances of VI in a blank project the projetc won't open again! Even in some projects where I have only 3 or 4 instances running the project wont open - this means I than have to disable to plugin in the AU manager (Logic9), then open up the project, delete all the instances, save as a different project file and then re-load all the instances. As you can imagine this really disrupts work flow!

    Thanks

    Hi jampig,

    the 64 bit version for OS X was released on the 3rd of march 2010.

    Please check your User Area for the latest update.

    This could also have to do with the fact that you have not registered the Extended Library of your Special Edition - your demo license expired in december 2009....

    Thanks for replying Paul, but I think I'm missing something here. I'm talking about a 64 bit version of VI for mac OS X, I can only see there has been an update for VE and for Windows VI.

    Also, can you please explain what you mean about not registering the extended library of my special edition?  As far as I was concerned I had a demo version of the extended library which has now expired.  So, I dont really understand what youre saying about registering it??

    Thanks!

    Hello jampig,

    well, Vienna Instruments in their two latest version are 64 bit on OSX, you can also check in the changelog.

    Regarding the Extended Library: If you have used any sounds of the Extended Library in your songs, these songs won´t open anymore (because the license is missing).

    We hope that we can change that with future versions, so that only the samples you have registered are opening.

    I have sent you another 30 days demo license so that you can open the songs - don´t forget to bounce all tracks.

    And of course you can always just purchase the Extended Library of the Special Edition online.

    Best,

    Paul

    Hi Paul

    Thanks for your reply.  I have installed the latest update and after a lot of testing it seems to have fixed the problem.  FYI I'm still using it in 32bit mode so it wasn't a matter of being able to access more ram that fixed the issue.  Also the projects did not use any of the extended library in them so that wasn't the issues either.

    Anyway, the point is that the update seems to have fixed my issue for now. I will post back if I encounter any more problems.

    Thanks

    While things have been going fine with loading several instances of Vienna Ensemble in Logic, I'm curious when the 64-bit version of Vienna Ensemble (the free one) will be available for OS X. Is it in development?

    Also, is there any particular reason my projects sometime open with empty instances? Restarting my computer fixes this, but it's irritating have to always do this. I'm using EW/QL Stormdrum 2 as well, so maybe Vienna Ensemble and EW/QL PLAY aren't getting along nicely?

    Hello quartz3d,

    Vienna Ensemble (the free one) will probably stay 32 bit on OS X for a while.

    I don´t know a particular reason why some of your projects oopen with empty instances, but maybe you´d like to add some details of your system (OS, Sequencer and version, RAM, Computer specs...)?

    Best,

    Could this be connected with older projects opening blank? - see:

    It's not a problem with using older song files, as the template I'm using was created with the current version of Vienna Ensemble and Vienna Instruments. Currently I'm using an 8 core Mac Pro OS X SL with 8 GB RAM. I'm running both Vienna Special Edition and EW/QL Stormdrum 2 in Logic 8 (all latest updates).
