  3. Will my existing VSL instruments work in Pro Tools 11?

  • Will my existing VSL instruments work in Pro Tools 11?

    I apologize if this question has been asked before, but a search didn't turn up anything. I'm a very small-time user of VSL instruments, but I really like them. I have the Chamber Strings 1 & 2, and use them for string parts on acoustic singer/songwriter stuff. The more I use the Chamber Strings, the more I want to get more VSL stuff. Currently, I'm on PT 10.3.7, but I'd like to move to PT11 as soon as I can. So - will my Chamber Strings work in a 64-bit environment? Or do I need to move to VE Pro 5? I'm working on the assumption that I'll need to go for VE Pro 5, but thought I'd double check. I know it would be an improvement in workflow, and would free up resources on my Mac, but there's a difference between "would be nice" and "have to do it". Many thanks, Myles

    Hi Myles,

    All our software works great on PT11, and you don´t need to use VE PRO ---- although it will be worth checking it out with a free demo license (click "try") if you are working with samples a lot.

    Especially with PT, VE PRO also allows you to integrate your 32 bit plug-ins (which won´t open in PT 11 anymore).

    Best,

    Paul

    Hi, Paul - Thanks for your reply. I guess what I'm confused about is whether or not my Chamber Strings are 32 bit... i.e., they won't work in PT11? Regards, Myles

    It's not Chamber Strings that you should worry about, it's the VI Player, and AFAIK there is a 64bit AAX version of the software, so there is no reason it shouldn't work.
