  • First off - I agree with much of what you say.  One HUGE favor, Errikos - how about some paragraphs[;)]

    No sample library or REAL instrument for that matter will make poop smell any differently.  I have always believed that it is 'not the wand but the witch'.  I am not asking for (presets of functionality) anything that is not inherently built into the new VIPRO - controllability of static sample snapshots.

    The new VIPRO is wonderful and I have already used it today to make my living - but 'starting point' presets would save me time to concentrate on the very thing you allude to  - the writing.   Every day my personal goal is in finding a unique 'voice' in a sea of competition. 

    Thanks again VSL for this new 'tool' - really wonderful. 


  • Fixed the paragraphs.

    Rob, I'm glad someone agrees with me, even to a point. I know that you know I was not referring to guys like you; I've heard your stuff and I can tell that you are asking for functionality and efficiency, as opposed to crutches/prosthetics. Also, I agree that "no library will make poop smell any differently" - as yet! My problem is that with so many people entering the industry with ill-advised confidence (just listen to all those cloned demos in all those websites...) and somehow getting work, the public - and most importantly directors and producers - slowly but surely are just getting used to that 'smell', just like when you visit a farm. Not that this could ever be called great, or even good music, but I'm so afraid that it could become the acceptable standard, especially when software is increasingly getting better all the time at covering inadequacy.

    I would just like to repeat, that characterless, generic musical blocks such as scales, scale-arpeggios, bariolage, harmonic glissandi, etc., that are most difficult to reproduce with single-note samples, are most welcome and will immediately find their way into my shopping basket.


  • Thanks Errikos. WOW - this vipro is GOOD!!!!!   Wish I had more time to really sit with it (and the vids).   Outstanding VSL - just outstanding.   What a facelift you have given to your libraries.

    I agree 100%, and there will be presets - we just didn´t want to hold back VI PRO just because of presets, as it´s just too great a tool to work with as it is!

    This will take some more time, it´s still a lot of possibilities and we´re trying to find the best way of making use of the new features, in a well-organized way that doesn´t come with an overwhelming number of presets (which would be even more confusing)....

    I understand this logic. However, I find the best way to learn is from examples. Having VSL-made presets will be incredibly useful to users like myself.

  • It still would be very useful! But I think that's not in "to do" list...


  • VI PRO 2 will be delivered with more than 2300 of new matrix and preset files for all library categories (DVD collections, Downloads, Special Edition)

    All in all I've worked 8 month now preparing the content.  [:S]

  • [:P] OLÉ!!!

    [:O]! In fact my post pretends to be an action - reaction from VSL!

    Really congrats guys! 

    Herb, If you need holidays after that, you are invited to Mallorca to a house in front of the beach, but remember to come with a "little" present box from VSL ...

    Bravo Herb !!!!

    Many many thanks - this will really be appreciated.

    I look forward to the update.


  •  Where exactly are the presents and matrices stored?  Are they the last 2 .dat file for each instrument?

  • Herb,

    I just wanted to also add my appreciation for all you do for my musical world.  I know this sounds a bit silly but in my head I have always been a "darling, you make my sandwich and I will make yours" because it always seems to taste better when she does it and she always claims mine is better then when she makes it.  The point is, when I hear and see your examples I love the sound but never believe I am quite getting there, even if I am.  Giving me a ready to use perfect sounding starting point increases my confidence to be able to tweak a little and have a great finished sound.

    I really look forward to the update and truly appreciate all the presets you will give us.  99% of the time, I use Dietz settings in Vienna Suite because they sound so good.  I don't really understand the logic of why to move certain ones up and down so his presets have been my god send.  I hope that these VI Pro updates will do more of the same for me.  Mixed with my soon to be MIR update...  my god I have goosebumps.

  • Great news Herb - looking forward to the updates and the presets.
