    That is wierd. I'm showing 128 samples in the left lower corner. All of my slaves have wavecenter pci's so I can't try it with a different card. In Sonar, I have the MOTU drivers set to 256 samples. I'm running Windows XP (SP2) on all machines. I'm sure you'll get it solved, and I hope you do, because it is really a convenient bit of software! The only glitch so far has been when I tried to open another instance of VE -- complete crash and automatic reboot.... haven't tried to do it again. I'll approach that gingerly after I've messed about with VE for a while....

     Thanks Mahlon for the reply.  Yea nothing I do seems to get this sorted out.  I am pretty close to waiting on this new software for a couple weeks until I can get done with current project and get this sorted out.   One of my clave PCs acts very strangely running VE in stand alone (CPU runs at 100% - lower right hand corner - with no instruments loaded.)  VE looks great my maybe not ready for prime time on my systems.  I'll keep tinkering as long as I can.

     OK - the 'RME' slave is still haing problems.

    When I go to 'preferences' and assigned the known ADAT out - an error message comes up the says ..."Device already allocated"

    Any ideas?

     AH success!!!!!!  I discovered that the ADAT output (that I used for Vstack) just gave me fits and then selected the ASIO 95/52 general out --- and VERY important --- let both settings in preferences to DEF!!!!!!!!

    That combination and this is working.   One down - three PC Slaves to go!!!!!!

    ---This is some nice software VSL!!!!!!

    Hey Rob (and others), I finally have a bit of time to try to move over to VE…  I’m having the exact same latency issue on my slave machine as you describe here.  (MOTU buffer set to 128… VE showing 2560).  Was there any resolution?  Maybe some setting I’m missing?  Vstack on the same machine (at the same time) is lightning fast.

     

    Thanks!

    Hello Scott,

    this was a bug that was fixed with the latest version of the Vienna Ensemble. Please make sure that you are using the latest update of the VE.

    Thanks for the quick reply Paul.  I have the latest version of VE (2.0.2781) running in standalone.  The latency on the lower left of the screen (2560) doesn’t match my MOTU buffer setting (128) – not sure if this is a problem or not, there was just some similar discussion earlier in this thread.  My problem is that the response of VE is very sluggish (unusable), even with the smallest MOTU buffer setting.  Vstack on this same machine is super quick.  I was hoping I was missing some sort of latency setting within VE.

     

    Thanks again.

    Hi Scott,

    which Service Pack are you using with XP? Are you using VSTack and VE at the same time? What happens when you insert VE into your VSTack, as a VST instrument?

    Let me know about your findings!

    Confirmed - latest build has fixed the issue (running VE within C4)

    Paul, Win XP pro SP2. I’m not planning on running VSTack and VE at the same time; that was only for testing purposes – my initial try was to use VE alone in standalone mode. VE within VSTack works fine – no latency issues.Thanks Rob. I’m actually using Sonar on my main DAW machine – no problems there. My issue is the same as you noted on your slave machines.Hope this helps. Thanks for your time.

    Hi Scott,

    the Vienna Ensemble should not cause any troubles used as a standalone instrument - that is the basic intention of this software.

    Did you try to change the latency of your soundcard BEFORE launching just the Vienna Ensemble?

    Just tried it now – no change.  Looks like I won’t be leaving VSTack just yet…  I don’t know what the problem could be. Thanks for your help.
