     I just bought and downloaded the 'Soprano Choir' sample set but I can't unpack the files on RARX, Stuffit Expander or Juicer on both my Mac and PC. 

    Has anyone else had this problem? Is there an installation guide to all this somewhere? 

    Thanks

    Hi there,

    You have to use the Vienna Instrument Library Installer. When you run this installer, it will ask you where the package info file is which should be included with the soprano choir files you downloaded off of the VSL site. After doing this, the setup wizard will begin and then you can choose where you want to extract the files.

    The Vienna Instrument Library Installer is included when you download the Vienna Instrument Software Installer off the Vienna website.

    I have a G5 iMac running OS X 10.3.9. Where can I find the installer that will work on my set up?

    OSX 10.3.9 is not supported, you would need 10.4.X

    I just downloaded the Epic Orchestra pack and can't figure out how to unpack these .cab files. I've tried multiple operating systems..Snow Leopard and Leopard. I've tried Juicer and Stuffit as well. If you have any suggestions I'd be most greatful. Thanks in advance

    Hi HomicidalMac,

    please install the VE PRO Software, unzip "V50standard.zip", drag all cab files to this folder and run the Library Installer. It will ask you to select the "package.info" file in the folder. Then the installation will start.

    Best,

    Paul

    Thanks a ton!! Worked Great. I hadn't copied the files to the actual folder.
