This is aboslutely making me drool. The Patch Rack looks absolutely to die for. I would love you forever if you made us presets for Divisi using this new interface. Right now I am needing 5 seperate violin placements, 4 violas, 7 cellos and two double basses. Mostly due to monophonic playability. I am having so many issues getting things balanced with all of these seperate string VI's at once.

Looks fabulous, thanks VSL. One huge thing I'd still love to see added would be some sort of algorithmic legato transition speed control (as in LASS). VSL currently has only 2 choices right now, fast and slow–not nearly enough. Now that I'm used to working with LASS variable legato speed control, I find VSL's very limiting. I still absolutely love the sound of VSL's strings, but we'd have it all if this feature could somehow be added–thanks!
looks great, lots of good ideas.
What I'd love to see is a way to assign different Perform settings to patches. A choice between 2 options would be great, so I can have long articulations (like legato) use Expression (or any other controller) for velocity switching and volume and use Note On Velocity for short articulations (with Velocity X-Fade disabled). This makes playing realistic performances much easier. I currently have 2 VIs for each instrument - one for long articulations, the other for short ones - just so I can have 2 sets of performance controls. Having this option within VI would simplify this setup greatly.
+ 1 !
That would be even better than turning on and off the velocity cross-fade. [Y]
Do we really need all those horizontal lines of differing lengths visually cluttering up the file structure of the browser?
It would be some much cleaner without them. I sure hope they're not in the final version.

I have dream it, VSL did it ;
great new !
Hope you will be able to increase loading speed too
Best

Any chance the new player can be opened directly as a plug-in in Logic - rather than the intermediate floating plug-in box? I'm certain it would be high up on most purchasers wish list.
Yes. It can. 32- and 64-bit versions available.
.......which prompts another question:
Does the new player use a memory server, or just the memory available to the sequencer? I'm thinking about those Mac users who are still using 32bit sequencers, but want to use all their memory.

Thanks Martin that's great news - looking forward to fewer mouse clicks and extra time to spend with the family!
One question concerning the opening procedure of the plug-in. I noticed that with the latest updated version of the player it takes quite a bit longer for the VI window to open once the intermediate plug-in box has been clicked. Could this be something that can be considered as part of the VI pro software development. When you are opening and closing VI's all day long as custom matrixes are created on a complex arrangement a quick plug-in opening time both makes the whole music production more streamlined and is a great time saver.
Thanks

Opening of a plugin window is instant with ViPro.

More great news when can I buy it !?

I had big hopes for the next VI version to enable you to stretch the portamento/legato transitions to have more control of the timing. Some other Kontakt based String Library( ;-) ) did that, so it should be possible, but the VIpro preview doesn't look like that is going to be a feature ... any chance?
Other than that great news!

Martin and the VSL team:
THANKS for this great news! This answers and addresses long-standing issues.
The new VI Pro look very good indeed.
Many thanks in advance - Colin
Ooooh im foaming at the mouth just looking at all these new features..
BUT - before i get too foamy, i didn't see anything on the page about specs or system requirements. I'm a Mac user (PPC) and always fear seeing the dreaded "Intel Processor only" info...
So, Herb or Paul or Maya, any info available yet about system requirements?
Thanks!
-Michael
