So now the question is, what software should I invest in to compliment Vienna? I read other threads where Nuendo or its younger sibling Cubase were suggested, but I'm also seeing a forum on here that is dedicated to Gigastudio. Any suggestions?
Thanks again

Hi Raji
I can't say this or that is the best host program - that's as clear as daylight.
But most of the VSL - users are working with Logic, Cubase, (Nuendo), Sonar, Ableton...
As mentioned above: Important is that the program offers a good fast audio engine
and a mixer which allows you to insert several effects - either those of the host or
external effects (reverbs compressors limiters etc.). If you buy a program such
as Cubase, Logic or so you will be in the right position.
Gigastudio?
The first VSL-Libraries where prepaired to use them with a sample player such as Halion, Kontakt...
In connection with this the Gigastudio was an optimal possibility too.
But the VSL-Libraries come with their own player today: The Vianna Instrument (VI).
You will get it with each Library. It is a Sample Player (VSTi) which is able to play the VSL-Library
format. And for that you need a host program (Logic,...) which should be able to handle such an Instrument
in a flexible way...
Still one thing...
Warning! The VSL Libraries are addictive!!!
- (more) countless and sleepless nights will follow
- You will lose your money for Computers, RAM, Harddisks, Libraries
- You could lose your wife, your friends,...
...But the feeling with VSL is similar to all other super drugs: Heaven on Earth
All the best
