    Dear VSL Team,

    Vienna Suite is certainly a very nice addition to VSL, but I believe it is missing some basic functionality when it comes to using it inside Vienna Ensemble.   I'm referring to the fact that you can't automation a VS plug-in's parameters from your master computer's sequencer when it is placed inside a VE instance.

    This isn't a problem unless you need to adjust a plug-in's parameters dynamically during the course of the sequence in order to suit the needs of the music.  I do this quite often and I bet I'm not the only one.

    Now I can use VS plug-ins in this way (i.e. dynamically), but I have to place them on the tracks of my master computer's sequencer in order to get that kind of functionality.  This uses my master computer's resources when I would much rather have them in a VE instance on my more powerful slave computer.  This means that unless you intend to use VS in a static fashion you can't use VS inside VE.

    Now I realize that this kind of functionality is probably not easy to implement, but I'd like to point out that this type of automation already exists for VI.  Using VI in Performance Control I can assign MIDI CC numbers to Velocity X-Fade, Cell X-Fade, Release Time, Expression, etc.  I can control the CC data values from my master computer's sequencer and they automate the various parameters of the VI's that are inside the VE instances on my slave computer.

    I'd like to see the same kind of functionality for the VS plug-ins.  I would imagine it to work very much the same way it works for VI.  (Example: I open the VS Power Panning plug-in and right-click on the "Width" parameter.  The "Width" slider would blink red and I could assign a MIDI CC number by sliding a controller or by selecting the CC from a "Map Control" interface like the one with the VI's.)

    Now am I the only one that would use this kind of automation for VS with VE?  If so, then promptly ignore this.  If not, then......?

    Thanks, Brian [:)]

    Well, I think automation would be nice to have, but I am not sure that MIDI would be a good solution - sounds somehow like in Logic 4 ....
    I mean, you must select the track and the insert slot to address the correctly .... There is a protocol which is ideal for that, but no host supports it - OSC. So, maybe use OSC with automation with a OSC converter plugin - that overs an automation interface to the host, converts automation data from the host to OSC data that is sent to the slave.
    just my thoughts

     No, you are not the only one. The possibilty of using automation on VS inside VE is the first thing which crossed my mind when I started using VS (which is, just to avoid any misunderstandings, a stunning set of plug-ins, all compliments to the development team). It would be a great feature to have in one of the versions to come...alongside of things such as a few undos and redos for the last changes or the possibility to directly create directories for different categories of presets when saving them...

    Happy new year to you all,

    Hello, I just bought a new Digidesign Icon D-Command. The Vienna Suite will not work with the Icon, when I load the Plug-ins, the dedicate EQ and Dynamic knobs don't do anything. Protools is a major software, please add support for it (fully support). Thanks Sonny

    I just thought the other day , that it would be nice if the EQ`s could have a pre\post setting for the analyze function.

    Offocourse you could use the actual analyzer plugin, but it would seem practical to me to have a selectable pre or post setting within one actual plugin as well.

    It's there already. Just look at the right bottom corner - there you can switch the view from Input to Output.

    HTH,

    Vienna Suite EQ:

    I'd like to see a shelf switch on the EQ bands particularly to use High shelve and Low shelves.  I use high shelves alot on Vox.

    Power Pan:

    I'd like to be able to spread the width beyond 100%  (like to 300%)  in order to make samples wider than they come or to spread a mix out a bit.

    Exciter:

    I'd like to be able to excite the low end the same way the current exciter works on 400 and above.

    So far the plug-ins sound great! Just installed last night.  I mainly got them for the Jazz Drums as I already use waves for this type of thing however from what I've heard thus far, I'll probably start using Vienna Suite for alot of stuff.  I love the presets for your sample collections.  Please make more presets for all of your collections.

    Keep up the great work!

    yes, I could also find enough uses for shleving filters in the normal eq ... best
