    Hello David!

    It's normal that you only see one Vienna Ensemble plugin. That's the way it should be. Installing one Vienna Ensemble version will overwrite the other - at least the plugins. I advice against making experiments with having both plugins installed. This has a high potential of becoming a big mess.

    I have attached a screenshot where you can see how to add Vienna Instruments Pro with Vienna Ensemble 7 (iLok).

    Hi David!

    Oh sorry. I'm not at the office anymore. You can add Vienna Instruments Pro with the third button at the bottom right (virtual instrument plug-ins). Depending on what you have registered, it might also be the second button.

    Thanks - I'm using plain vanilla Vienna Ensemble 7 and not VE Pro 7. I've looked everywhere around the screen over and over and there is no mechanism for inserting a VI instance, only a Synchron Player instance. Is this one of the things that VE 7 Pro provides that basic VE 7 doesn't?

    Hi David,

    Right click in the left pane (after creating an instance). The top choice should be Insert VI Pro.

    Hi Bill - I use neither Vienna Instruments Pro nor Vienna Ensemble Pro, so I have to assume that's my problem. :)  I have scoured the entire surface of plain old Vienna Ensemble 7 and right clicked everywhere and there is no way to insert plain old Vienna Instruments into it - just Synchron Player.

    Hello David!

    Vienna Ensemble 7 (free) can of course add Vienna Instruments Pro. You don't need to have a license for Vienna Instruments Pro. It's free since we have switched to iLok. If it isn't available in Vienna Ensemble, you probably don't have it installed. You can install Vienna Instruments Pro with the Vienna Assistant.

    Best regards,
    Andi

    P.S. You will need Vienna Instruments Pro (iLok) installed. Vienna Ensemble 7 (iLok) will not load Vienna Instruments (eLicenser) or Vienna Instruments Pro (eLicenser).

    Hi Andi - I have VE 7 and VI Pro downloaded and installed via Vienna Assistant, and I'm still not seeing any way inside VE 7 to load VI Pro - just the Synchron Player, same as before. Should the iLok Manager be showing a line for VI Pro, even though it doesn't require a license (it's not showing it)? I'm very confused at this point....

    Thanks again -

    .....and now I see that VI Pro can't see any of my legacy Special Edition instruments, either the standalone version or the VST version inside Finale 26.  :-(  I confirmed in the iLok Manager that their licenses are all activated under iLok.

    OK, I finally figured out how to insert an instance of VI Pro into VE 7 - by right clicking, then clicking on Insert Plugin, then clicking on VI Pro.
