Hello Cyril!

Can you please share a few more details on what you have done exactly?
Have you been able to activate VE Pro in Sibelius and connect to the VE Pro server?
Did you check the output settings in Sibelius?

Andi

Hello Andi

I have found out !

I was using VI PRO 2 Preset and the patches where all in light blue instead to be in dark blue, so they where not authorized ! strange !

There is a bug there !

I have not load all the collection I bought on my MBP R, besause lack of disk space,

So I have load only SE 1, SE 1 +, SE 2, SE 2 + VI Pro 5 And I am going to add Vienna Suite

So what can you load with SE in Sibelius ?

With Sibelius, do you know if it is possible to determine automatically is the note is played "Staccato" or "Legato", this depending of the note Length ?

Thanks

Hi Cyril!

VI Pro offers the possibilty to enable and disable patches and matrices. Disabled patches are displayed in light blue. They are not loaded to the RAM and cannot be played. This is not a bug, but a feature. [;)]

If you want to use the Special Edition Volumes 1 and 2 and the SE PLUS Volumes 1 and 2 with Sibelius, use the Special Edition PLUS sound set and load the Special Edition PLUS matrices (= the ones with the "+" at the end of the name; not the VI Pro matrices).

You can learn all details in the "VSL and Sibelius 7" tutorial video and in the "Optimizing Sibelius Playback" manual at the following locations:

Hello Andy

Many thanks

It should be more obvious for begginers that when you load a VI PRO patch it is loading the samples with them ;)

I have a VE Pro for percussions, what do I define on Sibelius side and in the VE pro (it is said in the manual Copy the VI presets (.fxp files) that come with the Sound Set to your VSL Custom Data folder. (Attention: this does not apply for the Sound Sets VE Special Edition and VE Special Edition PLUS,)

How can I access to Triangle .....

Hi Cyril!

For the Triangle add a Triangle instrument to your score. On the Sibelius Manual sound sets page reserve a channel for Percussion. In Vienna Ensemble (Pro) load the matrix "14S Percussion".

Hi Andi

By any chance do you have a table of the resumé of each articulation and it's CMD T name ?

A bit like the one after !

Hi Cyril!

I don't have such a table, but the list in the "Optimizing Sibelius Playback" manual is quite similar. [;)]

Hello Andi

Would you mind checking it ?

Hello again

What do you think of this diagram ?

A I wrong ?

Hello Cyril!

Please understand that we can't offer services like checking personal documents of users.

Your diagram is very small. It's hard to read what you have written. Anyway, you can't connect from Logic and Sibelius to the same VE Pro Server.

Andi

Hello Andi

Thanks for your mail.

I was going to propose this document to the user comunity !

Is the solution to connect Sibelius using IAC for Midi  and VE  pro server for Logic ?

Have a good Sunday

Hi Cyril!

It depends on what you are trying to achieve. If I needed to synchronize Sibelius with Logic, I would probably use Rewire, but I don't know what you are up to.

Best,
Andi

[Cyril Blanc]

Hi Andi

The idea is to have all VSL inst in Sibelius and all audio tracks and synth in Logic,

So Sibelius will send midi with articulation changes to VE and  Logic will mainly send Audio to VE PRO SERVER

Logic will recieve VE/MIR 

As you said before that VE PRO SERVER cannot receive from Logic AND Sibelius

My idea is to receive Sibelius flow from the IAC port

Will that work ? or do I have to make another configuration

Hi Cyril!

We didn't make tests with a setup like this yet. I'm afraid I can't be of much help here. Simply give it a try.
