    This is simply amazing - and very welcome at the right time. I was looking for alternatives to a resource limitation problem when I saw the forum traffic about the release. :)

    One quick question though:

    In Logic 8/9, using a multi-instrument as outlined in the manual works great, except that the volume automation affects all channels in the multi-instrument. Has anyone ever found a workaround for that? If seen some rather crazy ways of dealing with Logic's shortcoming using the environment. Is that the only way dealing with the issue?

    Thanks,

    JB

    You may use the audiounit parameter automation. Have a look in the Logic manual on how it works. VE Pro supports VST/AU/RTAS automation of Volume, Pan and Sends through the connector plugin.

    Do I need one usb dongle for each computer I want to use with VE Pro? Tx

    You will need a dongle for each slave machine - and you will get 3 licenses with a VE Pro purchase. The master machine, if running just the server interface plugin, needs no dongle.

    Most my plugin works great... but my ewql play libraries does not however. Im getting a "That product does not exist (productid -1)" error message. They work in all my other host(s) except ve pro. :(

    edit: I can see on vi-control forum that it is a known problem. Thats very unfortunate.

    go to USER AREA - SOFTWARE - Vienna Ensemble PRO, download and install (make sure no Vi / VE is running or loaded)

    hth, christian

     

    and remember: only a CRAY can run an endless loop in just three seconds.

    Hi jazzhole,

    it is really unfortunate that we do not currently support EastWest PLAY in Vienna Ensemble PRO.

    We are working on a solution for this, together with our colleagues from EastWest. Thanks for your patience!

    Best,

    At last! I love the new interface look!

    I am a bit confused, though. Or possibly blind.

    Using the 64-bit Server i can only load some apple effects, not the Vienna Suite ones, which according to the manual, should be 64-bit.

    How can i load channel strip settings? i wanted to try out the Epic Orchestra template but could't find out how.

    I am using the current version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

    Yeah I got that error message with EWQL Play. Works in the 32bit VE Pro verson for me though, just not 64bit.

    Congratulation to VSL for this amazing piece of software. I'm just wondering if it's possibleto send automation data from VE Pro to Logic, in touch, latch or write mode. Automation works as expected from the host to VE Pro and It's far better than the last version wich whas not automateble. I understand that we can't have every special features in the first built. Are you planning to offer feature? Or is it only in Logic that it dose'nt work? 

    BTW VE Pro is becoming the core of my DAW since I can now load every Virtual Instrument into it. I will use Logic for audio recording and mixing only. This software is changing my life.

    Thanks for your hard works.

    Hi Johannet,

    We are currently testing the 64-bit version of Vienna Suite for OS X, should be released soon [:)]

    The channel strip settings are in a special VE PRO project that should be online soon, including a short demo midi file by Christian Kardeis.

    => Make sure to have Vienna Suite available, be it as a permanent license or a demo license.

    Best,

    Is VE Pro 64 only able to load 64 bit VIs? It's not recognizing Omnisphere after rescanning of VST directories. I did have a crash when I first loaded Kontakt 3.5 with an older gig file. Loaded Kontakt first, then loaded Solo Strings staccato and it froze. Restarted the program and it hasn't crashed it but I'm still fiddling around. Thanks

    I don't know the answer to that question however, have you tried using "both" at the same time (a session of 32-bit and a session of 64-bit)?  Put your 64-bit plugs in that and your 32-bit ones inside a 32-bit.  I would be really interested in hearing if that worked or not.

    hey! I didn't even think about it like that! Think they'll both run at the same time? I'll try it. Report back in a few.. gotta let the dogs out and smoke a cig. Good idea dude!

    Yep. It works. Got both 32 and 64 bit running at the same time. Somebody earlier in the thread said they got PLAY working but only in 32 bit? Is this true? I'm installing all the 32 bit version of my PLAY libraries and they're not working in 32 VE Pro. I haven't updated to 1.2.5 yet cause I can't seem to download it right now. Keeps finishing at around 3 mb when the update is like 170.

    Hey Paul, I was able to load my EW Play 64 version into VE Pro. I never tried loading the 64bit versions because it was said that it's not compatible. I assumed the 32 bit worked because someone here said it worked for them. I couldn't get the 32bits to work. Anyways after several hours of playing around with the the new features, I said what the heck... let's load one and see what it says. A pop up titled "Could not find default plugin" appeared. In the body of the message read: "Play could not find its default libraries on your system. Please download the latest Play update at http://support.soundonline.com/play" I clicked OK and boom! The gui loaded up. I said to myself "This can't be right". So I clicked on the browser and started loading instruments. I loaded 7 Play instruments on the slave machine and had them routing back into Pro Tools. Placed random midi notes and looped it to see if I would get errors upon playback. Didn't get any. Odd thing was that I couldn't assign "Plugin Input 13/14" in Pro Tools. It wouldn't let me. I would select it but nothing would happen. So I just skipped it and went with 15/16. The only problem I encountered: Pro Tools all of a sudden froze when it was trying to Save a back up file. I rebooted and opened up the same session again. I tested out the 13/14 input thing and it still wouldn't let me. I cleared out all the inputs and did the track select CTRL+ALT+SHIFT input method hopnig all inputs would be assigned in sequential order. It stopped at 11/12. I tried to select input 15/16 (Because 13/14 just wouldn't work) and now 15/16 can't be selected. Weird. So I skipped that and selected 17/18. Played the loop again... Ctrl S several times while it was playing. Didn't crash. I started zooming in and out as it was playing and hit Ctrl S and it froze again. Apologies if this should go straight to support or whatever, but I thought I'd let you and the community know... Thanks

    Do you have both 32 and 64 bit version of Play installed? Im trying it out right now but it's not working for me.

    If I remember rightly I specifically ticked to install both 32bit and 64bit VST's when I installed the Choir and EQWL Orchestra.  (I'm using this on a 64bit Vista Core i7 Slave btw) It does always give the "Can't find default libraries" on start up though

    Cheers
