[SOLVED] Is It Possible To Convert A VEP6 Instance To VEP7

[jdw]

 

Hi Everybody

I am currently using Mac VEP7 with Finale v26 on an iMac Pro

A few years ago, I upgraded from VEP5 to VEP7

When I try to open an older Finale File created with VEP5, Score Manager tries to open a  VEP6  Server, which crashes my Finale file for obvious reasons;  (I never had VEP6).

Is there any way to salvage this VEP5 project, or do I need to redo it from scratch.  I would think that VSL would have provided a migration path for older projects

Thanks For Any Help

Hi David, 

That VE Pro 5 project should indeed open with VE Pro 7. 

What does it contain? Do you want to send the project to us to check?

Also: Which version of VE Pro are you using? eLicenser or iLok?

Thank You For Your Reply, Paul

The problem was Finale, so I won't bother you with the details.

Also, I was pretty sure you had an upgrade path for older projects, and I found it ...

In the VEP Window, I opened the Instance Menu > Convert Project To Vienna Instruments Pro.

This VEP7 v2.5 provides the Humanize Section, I could not find in older versions

It's been many years now, and I'm still learning every day .......

And the biggest take-away is that VSL is as close to perfect as conceivable !!!!
