Hi Maya,

Good news that there are advances on this issue.

I've installed the Synchrosoft and Vienna beta packages and now have the following times:

Initial start-up times (for the Symphonic Cube Extended! = 10 Master Licenses)

Initial Start-up Vienna Standalone 1'50" (Searching licenses dialogue box at 25")

Initial Start-up AU Plug-in 2':30" (Searching licenses dialogue box at 10")

This is on a G5 dual 2.5. OS 10.4.7 6.5GB RAM AU running in Logic 7.2.1

Dissappointing the times are about x2 your times.

Be interested to see some more Initial start times (JWL what is your Initial start time of the first Vienna Instance without samples/matrices)

My report I'm afraid, is much less precise, I didn't time anything, but...

On opening Nuendo (MAC) for a new project, the time seemed cut in half. Much improved so far.

My first test one a new project : 55 seconds to open de GUI ! Before, it was around 5 minutes ... sounds good.

On a G4 dual 1.8 with 4.5 GB running 10.4.4, with Syncrosoft 4.9.8.3, one test Logic song had loaded in 10:51. After loading 5.0.4.0, the time dropped to 9:34. Improvement, but far less than I had hoped.

Would upgrading to OS 10.4.7 help at all?

Hi,

you need to install the preliminary version of LCC 5.0.5.0 which is to be found in the download area on our website (User Area/Vienna Instruments/Software updates).

Best,

I don't know - I would like the start up time to be much quicker but 5 mins is still better than 50 minutes to sort out SLCC issues and eventually going back to a previously known working version. 4.9.x is at least allowing me to work.

Any more 'positive' reports regarding this beta test for someone as 'chicken' as me [:O]ops: ???

Rob

I was hesitant to go to the Beta as well. My version of LCC worked right away and after reading so many horror stories I just stayed with that one. (Can't remember the version now but it was one of the early ones).
But since I had no major projects going I decided to try the Beta. After installing I needed to restart to get it to see my lisences but after that it worked fine and is indeed faster.
I'm on a Mac 2.3 Dual Core with OS 10.4.7 and running the VI mainly as an AU in Logic 7.2.1.
I think it's as safe as it can be at the moment.

Thanks J. Perhaps in three days when this current project goes out (done or not [:O]ops: ) - I'll give it a try.


Rob

Beta working here for me on PC. Cold boot startup time (with large project) went from about 10 mintues to about 4 minutes. [:D]

Thanks Maya.

Well, that's a beta of a different color. With 4.9.8.3, the load was 10:51. Now with 5.0.5.0, it's 5:47.

I'm extremely grateful for this upgrade.

5.0.5.0...?!!??? ...I've only found the 5.0.4.0...

Sorry... Plowman, is it right... 5.0.5.0? [8-)]

Cheers
R

The 5.0.5.0 is on the VSL updates page.

Thanks, Jamieh! [:D]

Mighty rino lives! Yeah, I made the same mistake. Maya's first post has a link to Syncrosoft, but the beta is only available at VSL as of this moment.

I just finished my first session with the beta in Logic. So far, so good.

[:D] ...ah ah! Plowman! How are you?

Done! I've got it!

...It's waiting on my desktop! ...time to sleep here now! [[;)]]
