    Hallo Everyone,

    Reading in this forum, it seems that  a Demo for the Vienna Suite was available, to download so that- if I've understood correctly, we could try it out at first hand.

    I tried to find this today, but failed ........... is it still there, tucked away somewhere on the website ?

    Thanks,

    Kay.

    Hello Kay, nice to hear from you again,

    If you go to Products + Software + Vienna Suite you'll see the DVD version and a download version.  Next to the download version there are two buttons: Buy and Try.  I assume the Try button is to download a demo version. 

    So I guess you could give the "Try" button a try and see what happens.

    Hello Jasen,

    You're all so friendly here- it's really nice, considering I come to 'Take' and not to 'give' advice. Maybe one day I'll be as learned as you folks too ..............

    You were right: I clicked on "Try" and was given an activation code. However, I can't find the Syncrosft License Centre on my mac  to insert this code !

    Earlier today, I updated the license- successfully according to the window- so where IS it now ?  Spotlight gave me some folders with the name Syncrosft but there wasn't anywhere to fill in the code.  Help !

    Kay.

    Oops - something did go wrong with the download:  In the Vienna Suite Folder- in Applications -there is Vienna Suite Uninstaller but NO  Vienna Suite.

    How come ?

    What do I do now ?

    Heya ,

    That is normal now you just need log them in your DAW as a normal plugin. You should find a vienna suite in you plugins list with all vienna suite plugins in. Enjoy them ^.^

    Well- thanks for answering me, Gilles.  I checked in Logic ( my DAW ) and Vienna Instruments and Vienna Ensemble are there but no Suite.

    I then checked  Library/Audio/Plugins  but there's no sign of it.

    Do you know anywhere else it could be hiding ?

    Thanks,  Kay.

    Hi,

    run the AU Manager in Logic (Preferences => Audio Unit Manager) and see if the Vienna Suite shows up there and makes sure it´s activated, then revalidate.

    Hi Paul,

    You give such fantastic support - I wasn't expecting any more replies from Europe tonight !

    I followed what you suggested but it didn't show up.

    Shall I delete the current folder in Applications which only contains the Uninstaller, and then re-download the Suite ? 

    That'll be tomorrow though- I have to be up to teach in four hours so I'm  going to bed now.

    Thanks again, Kay.

    Hi Kay,

    hm, maybe uninstalling and re-installing helps.  But basically everything should show up just fine.

    Which OS are you working on? Which version of Logic?

    Thanks,

    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    I uninstalled then downloaded again.  The download was successful but the Suite still didn't show up in Logic. When I looked in Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST

    I found folders which belong to the Suite eg. VSL Convolution Reverb.vst. There are 9 folders in all. But when I clocked on one, I got a window which said: There is no default application to open the document 'VSL Anayzer.vst"

    So they are there.

    Before downloading the Suite, I ran Disc Utility to Repair Permissions, so this ought to be OK.

    I've got Tiger 10.4.11  by the way.

    Bye for now,

    Kay.

    Hello Paul,

    Success at last !  After  a restart Logic updated it's Audio Manager files and has added the individual components of the Suite to the list.

    But where should I be able to find them in the channel strip settings  ? Under the  AU list, I have Vienna Ensemble and Instruments. I checked up under  EQ, to see whether the individual components were placed in their relevant categories, and not altogether but couldn't find the VS EQ's.

    Do you access VS from the VE or VI windows after opening these ?

    ..... getting nearer and nearer ........... !

    Kay.
