Hello!
First of all : amazing! I would never thank you enough!
And because we have to challenge you even more (or else you would feel kind of bored...) I'm wondering if you think possible in a near future to link the dynamics (cubase score) to the performance.
As for an example, crescendos could be linked to the velocity Xfade.
What do you think?
Pro-Arte, I still think you have loaded the wrong expression map before. There is no expression map called bass trombone+. So I'm not sure what you have loaded.
It surely is no RAM problem. 8 GB isn't that bad by the way. [;)]
Ramu, thanks for your kind words and your suggestion. I'm not sure if dynamics really should be added to expression maps though, as lots of people record their performances with a MIDI keyboard and already have the desired dynamics this way. This could lead to a mess.
Best,
Andi
Andi,
There is an expression map called Bass Trombone + it is on the VSL SE + Low winds expression map ( 23S) and it doesn't work...same for tuba and trombones I wil check again tonight and will describe what happens to some section on the wwnds...
Strings + expression map works perfectly !!!
Sorry, but there is no expression map called Bass Trombone + (unless you made it yourself). Maybe you are talking about the Vienna Instruments matrix with that name.
So please do the following: Load the Bass Trombone+ matrix in Vienna Ensemble and load the expression map VSL SE+ - Low winds in the Cubase track with the same channel.

The preset you see in the clarinet demo has indeed two matrices included. It is for the clarinet in the DVD collection Woodwinds I. It's right that these matrices have the keyswitches C0 and C#0, but this is not H-Span switching, but switching between matrices as seen in the keyswitch display below the matrix settings.

Can I ask a question before I waste any money on an upgrade?
With Vsl you can have up tp three (or even four?) keyswitches that are asigned to a certain sampleset. Also, they cannot be placed simultaneously but one after the other.
Is Vst expression cabable of translating the more complex keyswitches including matrix and A/B switches into a single command?
That would be indeed a big timesaver.
ok!
But then the bottle neck will appear as soon as you have A/B switches like cresc/decresc. There you are forced to use another keyswitch isnt it?
" switching between matrices as seen in the keyswitch display below the matrix settings "
Dear Andi,
it should be simple , but I still didn't get it , do i need to control on CC1 ( but i haven't the modweel ) what i do is to make at work the horizontal keyswitch on C7 and C#7 and it works ,
The matrices are C0 C#0, right ? but this doesn't work or I am not ( yet ) able to make it working ...
Thank you, anyway.
Hello Pro-Arte!
The expression maps for the Special Edition and Special Edition PLUS are using key switches for H-Span and CC1 for V-Span. The expression maps for our wind instrument collections and download wind instruments are using key switches for matrix switching and second key switches for H-Span.
You don't have to have a Mod-Wheel, because the expression maps will take care of sending these values.
I don't understand what you are trying to do.
Best,
Andi
Ok , it have been etablished that Cubase mistaken what is the middle "C" it seems they propose C3 as middle C instead of C4... this is why my matrixs doesn't change , what I did is to reatribute the matrix to another note instead of CO that is for Cubase C1 , as I have 88 notes keyboard I can put only few notes (matrixs) as the fews notes before "C0"...Too bad Steinberg doesn't fix this (long ago ) mistake ....

The reason Steinberg doesn't fix it is that they don't consider it to be a mistake. Even though the current International Standard clearly states that C4 is Middle C, many software and hardware developers would rather adhere to the "standard" that they have become used to. Obviously it would make sense for sequencer developers to give the user a choice (as some already do) but Steinberg, as usual, thinks they know best.

The VST Expression Maps for our String collections are now available for download at the following location:
http://vsl.co.at/en/68/141/460/1602/1288.htm
They can be used with the following products:
Solo Strings I + II
Chamber Strings I + II
Orchestral Strings I + II
Appassionata Strings I + II
Note for users who have already worked with the other VST Expression Maps provided on this site: Although the date has changed, the content has not. The only difference is the layout of the readme file. That was impoved. So there is no need to download these Expression Maps again.
Best wishes,
Andi
