    This is great, because I know from my own soundset experience that creating additional instruments is much simpler when you've got one "in the bag", so to speak. And since you've tackled the the Solo Violin first, which is one of the most complex instruments available, I'd imagine it should be much quicker to get soundsets for the other instruments made. Hope so anyway... This is making me feel very greedy!

    This will be so great for us Sibelius users!

    Thanks!!!

    Actually, continuing from my last post, having the Solo Strings soundset should make it pretty easy for us to create our own soundsets for the other instruments - just use the Solo Strings one as a guide! Nice!

    Sound Sets for Special Edition, Special Edition PLUS and Solo Strings are online.

    You will only see the sound sets of the products you have registered.

    Best,

    btw: soundsets for sibelius 5.2 are now online too (special edition, special edition plus, solo strings) - please be aware sibelius 5.1 and 5.2 need the respective (different) soundsets and solo strings comes with some additional presets ...

    I'm not sure if it's a Sibelius problem or a VE3 problem, but the Solo String soundset doesn't show up in Sibelius.

    Hello Ben!

    Did you load the right version of the sound set (Sibelius 5.1 or 5.2)? They are not compatible and the sound set will only show up, if you have installed the right version of it.

    Which folder did you copy it to?

    Please copy it to one of the following locations:

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 5\Sounds
    or C:\Programs\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 5\Sounds

    Windows Vista: C:\Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 5\Sounds

    Mac OS X: /Users/your username/Library/Application Support/Sibelius Software/Sibelius 5/Sounds

     You may have to create the "Sounds" folder if it doesn't exist.

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you, Andi. I'm using Sibelius 5.2 on XP64, but it's still not working.

    I put the XML is this folder. C:\Program Files (x86)\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 5\Sounds 

    Just to be clear, this is the place I should be seeing it, correct?

    Hello Ben!

    Yes, the sound set should appear in this window. If it does not, it is either copied to the wrong folder or you took the sund set for Sibelius 5.1. They are not compatible.

    Here is what I've been told by the Sibelius guys regarding the sound set folder for Sibelius 5.2:

    Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 5\Sounds
    Windows Vista: C:\Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 5\Sounds
    Mac OS X: /Users/your username/Library/Application Support/Sibelius Software/Sibelius 5/Sounds

    Sibelius will look in the user's area first, then the All users area and then the
    Program Files sounds folder. All of them will allow Sibelius to find the sound sets.

    Hope, it works now.
