    you need to have a VIENNA KEY attached to the computer you want to run a collection, but you can run each collection on a seperate computer if you want.

    what if you need to spread one collection across more than one computer, i mean for simple ease of setting up templates it would be nice to have all collections available on all computers.

    well, currently this must be put into the category *nice to have*. in case your setup needs it, it will be easy to transfer a collection license from one computer to another

    well the easy transfer is great, all you would need.

    so it sounds like a seperate purchase for a side license for addditional computers??

    as far as i can see now, there should be no need to run a collection on more than one computer (from a technical point of view)

    Hi Christian thanks for the replies.

    Any chance on ellaborating on the VIENNA KEY? I guess its a USB dongle of sorts - any chance it's compatible with the Steinberg key - that would save me some hassle with USB ports....

    TIA

    Excellent I have three - lol. I remember the days when you didn't have to pay for them.....

    when you do spread it across multiple computers do you have to have a host on each computer, or can it stand alone? do we have to buy vstack or something?

    I have always used giga studio so I am not used to plugins samplers very much. Thanks

    a VIENNA INSTRUMENT can run as AU, VST or stand-alone

    I think that you will be able to use it exactly the same way as you currently use GS, if you want to.

    It would be nice if all the hosting possibilities could be listed or at least the optimal hosting. For example I have a Dual 2.7 and two Giga platforms so I would run AU on the Mac and as stand alone or VST on the PC's or would it run along side GS or?

    Anyone got 2 cents on that?

    Can the Vienna key be the same key as a Logic XSkey? Or do I now need two dongles hanging on my system? If it can be the same key, is there a way to move the vienna key to a diffedrent key should I decide to sell Logic.
  • T

    dbuddle - if Logic uses the same Synchrosoft driver as Cubase then the answer would be yes - however not being a logic user I can't comment for sure.

    The Synchrosoft driver is pretty good and you can move licences between keys quite happily - which is what I have currently done for things like Cubase and Hypersonic - they were on two keys now just the one.

    A dongle key is the only way the Vienna Product can't be pirated.
    The less they are pirated, the more we benefit of their updates and prices, even if they're high.
    I hope it will still be available via the Logic dongle

    On my HOST PC, I have one USB taken up by my midex8 and the other by the dongle for SX. Don't have an open USB port for the new VI dongle. Is this a problem?

    Rob - I can't be sure for definite (having not seen the product) but I would say a definite yes if it works as per the current synchrosoft key.

    Also the synchrosoft driver can get a little picky with USB hubs and Steinberg advise not running it on a USB hub.

    You should be able to run it from the same dongle as Cubase as they are both Syncrosoft.
