    I seem to remember that there was discussion about this a while back, and I think that the answer was "just ignore it".

  • Well, it says there are no files available for me to download, and I am a registered user of all of Pro Edition, Perf Set, and VI.

    What else do I have to buy?

    Have you upgraded to Extended?

  • Thats odd.....

    So you own and have registered Pro Ed, and VI orchestral Strings 1.....?

  • Is your VI Orch Strings 1 an EXTENDED version?

    No it's not extended yet.

    I was under the impression that early VI buyers got the files.

    So now we have to buy the extended version to get the free files?

    Tom

  • I dont understand why anyone who owns Pro. Edition, and upgrades to the VI wouldn'y get the extended? Only if you get extended do you get a VIP upgrade price. It would cost you like €35 to your orchestral strings package to extended. I can understand why people would hold back if they dont own Pro. Edition, since extended costs alot - but as a Pr. Ed owner its a no brainer no?

    Anyway, regarding your impression. These strings have always been for upgraders. An extra bonus for those who upgraded their old pro. ed. to the new VI. It has never been an early bird offer.

  • I did upgrade. From Pro Edition, to VI.

    At the time of the early bird upgrade offer, you could not upgrade to the extended version. ILIO said you would have to wait and do that directly thru VSL. I understand that has changed now.

    I have not upgraded to the extended library because the demo is still working. And like everyone else, I haven't gotten what I've paid for already...no brass, etc. So there hasn't been a pressing need to upgrade yet.

    So, let me get this straight, I need to upgrade ALL of the VI package, or JUST the strings in VI to get this "free" item? What is it in US dollars?

    Thanks and sorry for the confusion. But make no mistake, it is not fair to say that these strings are a reward for those who upgrade. I did upgrade, from Pro, to VI.

    Well thats a debate you can have with VSL [:)]

    You only need to upgrade the Orchestral Strings 1 which in US dollars would be around $40. You should be able to see your price using the discount calculator

    Forty dollars? That's all? I'm on my way[;)]

    Tom

  • Well, I tried, guess I will have to call ILIO. The discount calculator doesn't show that I already have VI, so it makes me click on the STANDARD Library which I already own, and then extended, and that sure isn't 40.00....[;)]

    Ok, well try mail VSL if they dont chime in.

    Yes $40 - Thats maybe why VSL werent clear on he fact that you needed Extended. They naturally assumed that anyone going from Pro. Ed to VI would get extended... their whole VIP program was based on that assumption.

    tom, start from the product page please - login - now you should have *buy standard* disabled and see your price on the bottom of the extended column.
    let me know if it doesn't look like that, christian

    ps: registered VIs have to find their way into the discount calculator ....

    and remember: only a CRAY can run an endless loop in just three seconds.

    After you do this calculation then you can UNCHECK the standard edition and hit recalculate. It will then show the true extended price. A little confusing at first.

    Daryl - come on bro - tell us how you did the second one!!!!!!!!


    [:D]


    Rob

    Well, I think that it was pretty obvious that the second one was AV Perf leg. In case anyone cares, the first one was done using a mixture of 14Vln Perf leg, Chamber Vln (vibrato) and Solo violin Perf leg.

    DG

    So Daryl, Rob, Jay, etc... how do you like the new violins?


    I love them. Listening to Daryl's 2 snippets shows clearly HOW MUCH VSL has achieved with them.

    My only complaint - wish I now had the same with Appasion Cellos [[;)]]
