  4. Update 2023: VEP 7 Now Loading VST3 Plugins

    For anyone looking for a solution to this on windows, this is it...

    Clarification - my screenshots in subsequent post -  use case:

    • VE Pro running in a networked slave PC
    • Kontakt 7 (VST3) running inside Kushview Element
    • Windows 10 64bit on both machines (not that this even matters)
    • Cubase 12 Pro sending the midi signals from other computer / controllers (again, not hugely relevant)
  • M
    M

    I've attached a screenshot of how easy it is to route Kontakt 7 (for example of a VST3) inside VE Pro 7 using Kushview Element.

    You can Set the VE PRO Plugin MIDI In to whatever, and have --All-- midi channels, then have Kontakt 7 inside Kushview with a multi containing midi ins for all 16 channels if you like.

    Couple of tricks - e.g. starting the standalone Kushview first to scan plugins and set Midi in/out preferences, then they're visible in the plugin version that you add to Ensemble Pro Server. But there are great (and short!) tutorial vids on youtube of Kushview routing and setup etc.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi,

    interesting ...

    What about the delay compensation? Do VSL can detect latency of a plugin loaded inside the chainer?

    thanks!

    So the VSL Newsletter in 11/28 said "We’re happy to announce that Vienna Ensemble Pro 7 with VST3 hosting capability will be available as a free update in December, 2022. Get it now at its lowest price ever!"

    Did VSL miss this, or is it coming today or on Saturday? :)

    Hopefully not.  Been itching to work on my new Dorico template!

    Hi styledelk,

    Great forum name there!

    We have been in close contact with quite some 3rd party developers to guarantee VST3 functionality. Unfortunately, not all VST3 issues can be resolved from our side exclusively - but most importantly: We want to get this right and some fixes took a bit longer than anticipated.

    Definitely looking at a release of this update in the first week of the new year!

    Thanks for your understanding and patience!

    Hi Paul,

    VST3 plugin hosting works like a charm for the plugs i have. I will dive deeper this weekend, but at first glance everything loads, responds as should.

    I'm sorry.  No VST3 plugin is loaded in my Windows10.
    I hope someone can help

    Thank you Andreas 8420.

    I have uninstalled VEPRO.

    Restarted the PC.

    Installed the version at

    https://beta.vsl.co.at/user/ViennaEnsemblePro-WIN-7.2.1494.exe

    The installer asked me the correct folder for 32bit version, the folder for VST2 and nothing else.

    I started VEPRO and it started to scan plugins and after a long time nothing happens.

    The Skip command did not works. The only thing to do was to cancel the scanning.

    No VST3 was loaded.

    I repeated the full process two times with the same results
