  • How do I get started with VSL special edition in Logic 9.1.1?

    I cannot load anything from the VSL sample library (Special Edition) into a software instrument track in Logic 9.1.1. Following the Logic manual, I assume I should open a new Instrument track with a "Software Instrument", and then patch it to "External Instrument". The library should show my VSL samples. It doesn't. When I search for them, I can move to the folder, but the sample types (".dat" files) do not appear to be available. They are greyed-out, and cannot be selected. Thanks for your reply-

    1. Have you installed the Vienna Instrument software?
    2. Have you loaded a Vienna Instrument?

    It sounds as if you are trying to load the samples into the wrong sample player, or no sample player at all. [:O]
