    Hi Walter, 

    You need one license and key for every computer you want to run the VE Pro Server on. 

    The only situation where you don't need a key on your master computer is when you only CONNECT to your networked computers. The connecting VE Pro PLUG-IN does not need a license to run.

    Hi. Trying to acvitvate the Big Bnad Ochestra. I now tried numerous times. I am following the instuctions. I have installed the latest versions of eLicenser and Vienna Donwload Manager. The BBO files have been downloaded onto my drive. I go through Vienna Down Load manager it gets to the part where it activates anfd then I get a message saying thatbthere isnt a USB eLicenser connected to the computer. Is that different to eLicenser. I have no USB thing at all. The eLicenser worked fine with Cubase. Any ideas?

    Further to my email below I now seem to have not had or lost the USB stick. I have no recollection of having one with the CubaseLE4 I got. Is there an alternaive l;icensing software that I can use to get BBO?

    Hi Phil,

    to use Big Bang Orchestra, you need a physical USB eLicenser / ViennaKey.
    This is also a requirement for Cubase Artist and Pro.

    You can order one here: https://www.vsl.co.at/Product_Overview/ViennaKey

    You will also find the Vienna Key / an eLicenser in most music stores.

    I am trying out big bang orchestra, and registered the license, but when I open Vienna ensemble I dont know where to go or load whatever I downloaded with the downloader

    I go to synchron patch, but its empty.

    This is very convoluted and I am frustrated. Any help is appreciated.

    Hi KidBomba,

    Did you install the Synchron Player Software already? You can insert it right in your sequencer.

    Vienna Ensemble is our host software that will be useful when you're loading many VSL instruments.

    For BBO, I'd stick with the simpler solution, just inserting the Synchron Player in your DAW.

    Hi, 

    Which locations did you try already?

    This should work with the latest version of the Vienna Assistant (will be downloaded upon your next start).

    I am having trouble getting access to BBO from Cakewalk. I have BBO and the Synchron player installed, and BBO works fine from the standalone player. I see both VST2 and VST3 versions of the player in Cakewalk, but I can't connect to any of the actual BBO instruments. I've manually tried setting channel/bank/patch numbers based on what I see in the standalone player but nothing seems to be generated. I have no trouble with the built-in TTS-1 synth.

    Hi Bedlam House,

    Did you check that your iLok License is activated and that you have download both the sample content and the Synchron Player with your Vienna Assistant?

    Here's a checklist for you!

    I've done everything in the list. Vienna Synchron Player appears properly in the Cakewalk instruments list. Synchron Player standalone properly loads the BBO and is able to play using selected patches. The problem is that I don't get anything from my MIDI track in Cakewalk when using the Synchron Player plugin is the assigned instrument and I can't figure out how to access any options for the plugin.

    Cheers,

    OK, I found how to get the plugin equivalent of the standalone screen up and running (double-click the synth name in the MIDI track inspector) but I still can't get it to take one of the selections for the patch. It shows the patches but I can't really select one.

    Well... I don't know what I did but I finally got it working. I had selected one of the factory presets and the articulation but was getting nothing, then gave up and moved to another synth track. Suddenly I started hearing the BBO along with the new track I was working on, and now it works.

    Weird.

    Thanks!

    Cheers,
