  • Hi Paul, I have downloaded and installed the Bang Orchestra but do not have an activation code.  If it was emailed to me then it must have gone into my spam forder which I have emptied.  Please can you sent another, thanks.


  • Hello HART, 

    You could order a second free license, but I have sent that mail again.

  • I have the latest download manger an synchron player installed. I have the same path/directory folder for Big Bang and Epic Orchestra, my e-licenser is showing Big Bang has been autohorised but the Big Bang does not show up in the Synchron player. Epic Orchestra does. Any ideas wha the problem is? Thanks.


  • Hi Darkell, 

    My guess is that you didn't run installation. 

    Do you find *.vsynvolume files in your BBO folder?

    If not, please click INSTALL in the Download Manager.

  • Paul, all sorted, many thanks.


  • Hi & thanks for the offer!

    Just I don't get it, the installation gives me the selection of the VST component only but in my Cubase 10 DAW it does not show up, I have set the installation / program directiory of the VSL player but there is nothing found.

    Please don't tell me it will load an external application outside Cubase so that I have to install the full player!?
    For what I am then allowed to install the VST alone?

    Not straight forward imho

    Appreciate your help!

    Best regards

    I just downloaded the library and I have the Steinberg eLicenser but when I'm trying yo install Vienna download manager says my iLicense is too old and it cant be cause I bought this one few months ago! Am I mistaking anything? How new has the eLicenser to be to work for this library? I was so happy...

  • Hello Martina,

    not your eLicenser USB Key but your eLicenser Control Center is too old. Download and update it from here:

  • Hello

     

     

    My elicencer control is not on a key, it is on my computer. Why it is not possible to activate using this elicencer ? I have installed the synchro program. Unfortunately now I have trouble in Cubase with the midi.

     

    Any help would be appreciated

     

    best regards

    Hello Yoplaboum.

    Our products always need a physical USB key like the ViennaKey or Steinberg Key.

    It will not run with the SOFT eLicenser.

  • Is there any purchase involved with using the free Big Bang Orchestra? Thanks

  • Hi Walter, 

    You only need a ViennaKey or Steinberg Key to store your license on. 

    Nothing else, the Synchron Player is included.

  • Hi Paul. Help me with this please.

    My understanding was the master pc did not need a Steinberg key/license while I worked with the DAW but the server/slave pc's did need a Steinberg key/license to work.

    If so, I moved the Steinberg key from my master pc to another slave to get the Big Bang Orchestra to play from that pc. But now the master daw pc will not open the Pro 7 server software now. I have ordered another usb key as you suggested but I was trying this to see if it worked like this. I did order an extra license a few months ago so I could use it on my DAW pc but now I have a new computer to add as another server. So it is getting confusing. My setup is this; two slave pc's and one DAW pc.

    I'm still rearranging my room but I would like to have the Big Bang on one slave and the other slave for various VST's. And of course the DAW pc to accommodate this. Your thoughts?

    Thanks


  • Hi Walter, 

    You need one license and key for every computer you want to run the VE Pro Server on. 

    The only situation where you don't need a key on your master computer is when you only CONNECT to your networked computers. The connecting VE Pro PLUG-IN does not need a license to run.

  • Thank you Paul.

    I understand now. 


  • Hi. Trying to acvitvate the Big Bnad Ochestra. I now tried numerous times. I am following the instuctions. I have installed the latest versions of eLicenser and Vienna Donwload Manager. The BBO files have been downloaded onto my drive. I go through Vienna Down Load manager it gets to the part where it activates anfd then I get a message saying thatbthere isnt a USB eLicenser connected to the computer. Is that different to eLicenser. I have no USB thing at all. The eLicenser worked fine with Cubase. Any ideas?

    Phil


  • Further to my email below I now seem to have not had or lost the USB stick. I have no recollection of having one with the CubaseLE4 I got. Is there an alternaive l;icensing software that I can use to get BBO?


  • Hi Phil,

    to use Big Bang Orchestra, you need a physical USB eLicenser / ViennaKey.
    This is also a requirement for Cubase Artist and Pro.

    Best, Ben

  • Thanks, how do I get Vienna Key?


  • You can order one here: https://www.vsl.co.at/Product_Overview/ViennaKey

    You will also find the Vienna Key / an eLicenser in most music stores.
