Vienna Symphonic & Finale

[user_76169]

Hello I am a composer and would like to start to explore Vienna Symphonic by acquiring at first the special edition Vol.1. I want to buy the USB Stick. My questions: Will Finale 2011 works with Vienna Symphonic....Will there be a problem if I want to use Logic Express for the mixing. Also Will I be able to install Vienna Symphonic In my desktop as well as my laptop. Thank you

Hello Julio!

Yes, our products work with Finale 2011. Registered users can download Finale Human Playback Preferences for the Special Editions and a keyswitch dump file here:
http://www.vsl.co.at/en/68/141/460/1603/1290.htm

If Logic Express supports Audio Unit instruments, it is also possible to move your project from Finale to Logic Express for playback finetuning and mixing.

It is possible to install and use our products on more than one computer. You just need the Vienna Key with your license(s) attached.

Hi Andy At this point I am just starting to use the VSL I am using Finale 2011. I was able so far to load the instruments in their appropriate channels. Channels are the same both in finale and VS. However I can't get all channels to play at the same time. as an ensemble.......Also how do I get more than 16 channels. Your help will be much appreciated tks Julio

Hello Cinera!

It's hard to say from your description why not all instruments are playing. Did you load matrices or presets in all instruments? Do the instruments you are not hearing get MIDI signals? This would be indicated by a blinking led at the very left of Vienna Ensemble. To get more than 16 channels, simply add a second Vienna Ensemble instance in the Finale instrument slots.

Best regards,
Andi

Thank you Andy. Your suggestions help me put my mind to it. At this point it all seems ok. I have another situation now. I am doing a piece with solo violin and chamber orchestra.For some reasons The solo violin always start on "det" rather than legato. It s like that the moment I load the solo violin.It just goes to the "det" How do I get it to be on "pLeg" at load time and stay on it until the score calls for det Thank you so much Julio

Hi Julio!

In order to help you, I will need some more information. I couldn't find any registered products under your forum name. Did you register your product(s) under a different name? Which product(s) do you have? Are you using the Finale Human Playback Preferences for the Special Edition?

Best,
Andi

Hi Andy I need to make a correction on my last message to you. My friend had used her maiden name (Emilie Martelly) when purchasing the product. I used the eLicenser to register the product I am using. Hope that help you in tracing the product. Thank you Julio

Hello Julio!

Thanks for the clarification. Finale automatically triggers the detache articulation for short notes and the sustain patch for longer notes. In order to trigger the legato patch with the Finale Human Playback Preferences for the Special Edition loaded, simply write a slur.

Best,
Andi

Hi Andy I did write a slur . but it is still not reading it . It will play legato if I put it manually . I tried to put it on pLeg manually before starting. It will jump on det by it self at start . I have to click it back to pLeg .Note that I dont have that problem with Orchestral Strings. I really dont understand. Thks a million for your help Julio

Hello Julio!

Maybe you have the wrong isntrument for the Solo Violin in your score. I would try to add the Solo Violin once again. Then copy the content from the old staff to the new one and remove the old instrument. After that check your Channel assignments.

I hope this helps.

Best,
Andi

Hello Andy I need your help again. I had to reinstalled OS X in my machine. I have version 10.9.4 Consequently I had to reinstalled VSL. For some reason now I can get only Vienna instruments in Finale setup audio units instruments "Vienna ensemble" does not appear . I see it in the folder "Vienna Instruments ". I will appreciate your help Tks Julio

[andi]

Hello Julio!

After the installation on Mac, Vienna Ensemble should appear automatically in the list of available Plugins. If it doesn't, I would use the Vienna Instruments Uninstaller. Then download the latest version of the Vienna Instruments & Vienna Ensemble software and reinstall it.

Hi Andi Thank you for your help.Everything is fine now Take care Julio

[cinera]

Hi Andi I am having a problem with VSL and I hope you can help me fix it Last night I work with a score and everything was fine But to night come to load it ...this message came up: This document has been saved on Windows to request an audio Unit instrument Plugin named:Vienna Ensemble on bank #2. On your current platform, this bank will not have a plugin loaded on it unless you choose one from the AU setup dialog. On device setup / Manage AU Plug ins I made sure that Vienna Ensemble is activated Also All strings were doing fine but now they only play détaché .Cant get them to play sostenuto at start. Thank you for your help Julio

[andi]

Hello Julio!

Finale on Windows can only work with VST-Instruments and on Mac only with AU-Instruments. So it can be expected that the instruments have to be set up anew if you go from one platform to the other. You could save your Vienna Ensemble settings as VIFrame though and load it on the other platform.

If you have the Finale Human Playback Preferences for the Special Edition loaded, detache is the default articulation for short notes and sustain is the default articulation for longer notes. If this shouldn't help, please contact

Best regards,
Andi
