  • Error message in VE: "Cannot start audio"

     I have just installed VSL Special Edition and Special Edition Plus on my PC (Windows 7 -64 bit, 4G RAM, M-Audio Delta with new driver for Win7-64.)  No Sound.  When I open Vienna Ensemble to load instruments, I get an error message"  Cannot start audio (ASIO Driver open Failure!).

    When I open VIenna Instruments Stand Alone 64, I get the same error message. 

    It is certain that my M-Audio Delta Sound Card is working properly under Win7-64.  When I play a score in Sibelius 6.2 with Garritan Personal Orchestra selected as my output dedvice, the GPO instruments play back correctly.  However, when I select Vienna Ensemble in Sibelius 6.2 as my output device, I get no sound.  I have loaded the soundsets for VSL SE and SE+ in to the correct folder (/sounds).  I have also selected my instruments manually.  Still no sound for VSL, either in Sibelius or playing the keyboard in VE.

  • I have a similar problem right now... I have a Delta 1010 on a win XP 32 bit system. All my drivers work fine in Vienna Instruments Standalone, but I can't get any sound from Vienna Ensemble, even though I see the meter showing (midi) activity. Did you resolve your problem? Asio does not seem to work for me in Vienna Ensemble, but it does in Vienna instruments...

  • Oops sorry I got it, I turned audio engine off, then on, then select asio and rescanned my outputs and it worked... I really tried like 30 times without success!! Yay!!
