  • Is VI Pro free for VE Pro users?

    Hi Everyone

    I have not yet purchased VI Pro, but have been using VE Pro for quite a while.

    I have downloaded the latest VE Pro and it has VI Pro in it already! Is this right?

    I only use my Vienna Instruments within VE Pro now, so does that mean that I don’t need to buy VI Pro? Or am I missing something here?

    (Yes, I realise that if I don’t but VI Pro then I can’t use it within Logic directly, but I don’t need to do that anyway because I have VE Pro).

    Just a bit confused here!


  •  If you want to use VI Pro, you will have to buy it, or when the demo runs out you will not be able to use your projects.

  • Ah ok – thanks for your reply DG. That certainly makes sense. I couldn’t work out why I could use VI Pro without having paid for it…

    But hold on - that means I have now inadvertently used up almost all of my demo licences.  Not too happy about that since there seems to have been no choice about it.

    Whenever I start a new instance of VE Pro, it always loads an instance of VI Pro – thus using one of my demo licences. Does anyone know if there's any way of stopping it doing this? 


  • AFAIK, that's the way it is.
