  • Darn it. Have been waiting for this.
    Disappointing.
    The VI app was a lifesaver for those of us that use VSL on a remote computer.

    I had really hoped this would be on the docket. Sticking with VI for now I guess.


  • Try TouchOSC 🤟

    Hi there.

    I am using TouchOSC + Osculator and it´s working perfectly with other software so far. I tried to configurate with ViennaSynchronPlayer in order to use the Midi CC Control Faders with my iPad. I get the signal to Osculator, but there is no signal in VSP..... 🤔.

    J.Dnp: What is your configuration? Thanks so much for your help!!


  • I am also trying Synchron player again - have lots of libraries for it..  It sounds great and I'd love to use it..

    Currently trying th program up the proper Synchron strings - but still keep rememering all the issues with Synchron.

    VI Pro is still the go to though mainly due to the problem addressed in thsi thread - I can't control Synchron from ipad.

    The second reason for not using so much is because the dynamic range doesn't work properly in Synchron - never gets quiet enough - VI pro is perfect in that respect.

    These gremlins have come up many times since the inception of Synchron - I wish they'd get a bit of attention from the devs..


  • I like the Synchron Player (to be fair, I have very little experience with the VI Player). I feel more in control compared to...other samplers.

    Back to topic - I throw my voice in as well - and sincerely hope that it's not iOS exlisuve - but Android as well, and maybe even Windows. I programmed in all Keyswitches into Open Stage Control (similar to touchosc, but full free) and think that could be an interesting idea if it is possible to do:

    Open Stage Control creates a local webserver, meaning you can access the created frontend from any device that you want (same PC on a touhscreen, android phone, tablet - everything that can pen a website essentially). That might be a direction that could be interesting to look into for the team, if they are planning and have not yet polished everything for a later release. Don't forget the Android crowd and windows tablet crowd please, and consider the potential in a locally running webserver to serve the control surface, that way you don't need to pay any attention to mobile OS developments ;-)


  • Any progress on an iPad remote app for the Synchron Player?

  • Hi DaddyO, 

    I'm afraid I can't report any progress there, but I think we will see a great option with the Studio One Remote App when it is released. Pretty great usability with the new Sound Variations Feature....

    Best,

  • I'm surprised.

    VSL's VI app is great - a game changer for performance.

    To get the same benefits I've had to put together a way of controlling Synchron using TouchOSC but I'm left wondering:

    If I can do this, why don't the good people of Vienna Symphonic do it properly ?

    I've used (bought) one of the Articulation packages - but it only works in Logic Pro - I need something that is platform agnostic ...like the VI app.


  • Synchron Player iPad Control App.

    yes, please!


  • Hi Paul

    Please let us know how the Synchron iPad app is going. Any News?

    Will it be soon?

    Hi,


    We do have something up our sleeves, but it will take some more time.


    We also wanted to see how many people are interested 😉.


    2 is not bad, but less than expected.


    Best,
    Paul


  • Hi everybody,

    I'm afraid our priorities have shifted quite a bit, and the iPad Controller App is on hold.

    Sorry to have no better news. Touch OSC will be a good alternative.

  • Hi Paul

    Is VSL moving away from working with Avid (ProTools - Sibelius).

    I've purchased Synchron libraries but don't want to change DAW or Notation software to use them.

    Many thanks

  • Hi @ohjohn - we are not dropping any currently supported plug-in formats. You will still be able to work with your hosts in the future.

  • In my opinion, Vienna Instruments Pro is much better than the Synchron Player.

    Not just because of the great iPad controller app.
    It's really tragic that this is no longer being developed.

    Couldn't you at least add a GUI scaling with a value of 150%?
    100% is too small for me, 200% doesn't fit on my monitor.
    I've actually already considered buying a bigger monitor just for that reason.
    But God knows how long the software will even run on my Mac.


    I would also be very happy about an iPad controller app.
    That would at least be a small consolation...
