Which DAW are compatible with synchron pianos

[Blackchaosvortex]

I recently bought the yamaha cfx of the synchron piano bundle and I'm wondering which DAW is compatible to use it with? I used kontakt when I recorded my midi and modified it with Reaper but it seems like the Rearticulate plugin is not really meant for the piano player?

If you guys have any suggestion on which DAW works and also maybe la ink or explaination on how to set it up, that would help me greatly thanks! (Ive seen Silbelius, Finale and Cubase already as pinned thread here, so I assume those work?)

Hello Blackchaosvortex!

Our Synchron Pianos work with any DAW that can host VST- or AU-Instruments. This is a feature which most programs can offer that call themselves DAW.

I read from your message that you have Reaper. Reaper should be able to host Synchron Pianos. I don't know the Rearticulate plugin, but a plugin will probably not be able to host VST- or AU-Instruments.

Best regards,
Andi

Rearticulate is due for better handling of articulations and playing techniques (disclosure: I don't have installed it yet).

Synchron player should appear along other available VSTi and AUi and be loaded as any other host plugin in your Reaper project.

I read you recorded your track with a Kontakt based library. You can load Synchron and delete Kontakt from your track (thus having the latter playing back the midi notes you recorded) or duplicate the track first and, again, load Synchron instead of Kontaky.

Hope it helps

Thanks for the suggestion Fabio however I've manually added the VST path in preferences to look for the Vienna Synchron Pianos but even after that Reaper doesn't show it anywhere in the VSTi or AUi (or other places)
What I do notice however is that with kontakt it looked for dll files within the VSTplugin folders.
So I'm thinking is it maybe a dll file that I'm missing?
What I'm saying can make no sense since every software is made differently, however it's just what I've seen reaper scan and that seems to work for kontakt atleast.

Check synthax in the VST plug-in paths, first. 
Locate where the Synchron Pianos player is installed and copy/paste the path to be sure not to loose something along… the path.
Be aware that not all VST are in shared Library folder, some rely in the User Library folder (Mac speaking)
Don't forget the ";"

Hope it helps

Thanks for the tip, but there was no mistake in my path.
My earlier suspicion was right about the missing DLL files,
I kept adding the Vienna Synchron Pianos Folder but the DLL files were located in the Steinberg folder.
After adding those in reaper, it works perfectly!

Nice to hear you solved this. Enjoy your new piano.
