Hello again,

Yes, I can report that all issues I mentioned before have been solved. Nice job! It's great to finally have the chance to load Steinberg VST instruments again on VEPro. Oh, and the EW Play VST3 engine became available after rescanning all plugins!

There's just a couple more issues that seem to have occured. Didn't notice them because these aren't currently on my template.

• All IK Multimedia instruments I own (Sampletank 4 and Syntronik 2) imediately crash VEPro once they're loaded.
• When searching for the plugins, I noticed that the search function stopped on Youlean Loudness Meter 2 plugin. Skipping it and rescan it manually solverd the problem.

That's about it all. Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.

Thank you again for your time!

I am facing VEP crashes with Kontakt 7 while disabling/enabling instances. Without disabling/enabling, no crashes. (VST2 version of Kontakt 6 working normally).

I have tried Audiobro, 8dio, and Zero-G libraries so far. 

Note: Only VEP crashes. Nuendo does not crash. All of the software has the latest updates.

All those issues seem to be solved by the 7.2.1495 update. Thank you, VSL.

Hi, 

Thanks for your replies!

Just cleaning up, with another improved version in the pipeline, so please keep it coming!

Best,

Hi Paul,

Maybe it's me, but where can i find the download for the latest update?

Auto update doesn't work anymore and can't find anything in my account.

latest version i have is 7.0.1120 NOV-23 2021

Thanks in advance!

Only the iLok version is being updated. You get that through the Vienna Assistant

Thanks Bill!

Just downed the assistant! 

Just updated to the latest version, but got some weird thing going on.

With the fresh plugin scan it keeps hanging on an error with the following plugins Izotope Breaktweaker or Relay VST3 ( latest versions )

VST2 loads without errors

The weird thing is that the vst3 works normal with Cubase / FL / Ableton.and StudioOne.

Someone else bumping to this challenge?

Ok, it seems I found a new issue.

When I try to connect a new pre-made instance of VEPro on Cubase 12, it's not listed on the plugin.

Even worse, if I disconnect an instance and try to reconnect it, it happens the same.

Hi, 

Thanks for posting. 

Can you please be so kind and add your OSs and used versions (DAW, VE Pro) with any reports? We can play detective and look for that information in all your other postings, but we are loosing time unnecessarily. 

THANKS!

Paul

Sorry for the lack of info:

• AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, 64GB RAM DDR4 3200MHz with Windows 11 Pro up to date
• Latest VEPro version
• Cubase 12.0.52 Build 393

Another info that might help and I just noticed. I started a new blank project on Cubase. Since it's possible to see the server reference, I placed manually the info of both the server, and the instance. Once I did that, when opening the second VEPro instrument plugin, it actually showed all available instances. If I disconnect all of them, the instances can't be automatically found again.

Hi Guin, 

Please get in touch with us directly: support@vsl.co.at

We have a few cases like yours, but it seems hard to pin down what's going on. Working on the next VE Pro version already, and it would be great to have a few users to test and help us this way. 

Thanks, 
Paul

Got some funky stuff going on here.

I was on build 1494, got the link from VI-Control. This fixed the "VST3 parameters not recalling" bug for me and worked fine, apart from a few minor things. Today, I saw that a VEP update was available that addresses most of my issues. I went online to update VEP to build 1495. After that, I got this: vepfail.png (501×208) (ibb.co)

Rolled back to 1494. Now my server project file won't open anymore, it's crashing VEP straight to the desktop while opening.

I'm not in the middle of a project right now (wouldn't have updated otherwise), but it's still an unsettling situation.

PC:

ASUS PRIME H670-Plus D4 Mainboard
Intel i7-12700K
128 GB 3200 MT/s DDR4 RAM
nVidia GeForce GT1030
System SSD: Samsung 980 250GB NVMe M.2
Content SSD: Samsung 870 EVO 4TB

Windows 10 Pro Build 19045.2364

(EDIT: And, of course, I tried everything from re-booting to a fresh install of VEP, both with builds 1494 and 1495.)

Hello

I have installed the latest versions of VE Pro and the Kontakt player. When I try to open a Sonokintic plugin (Sleigh Bells) in the Kontakt player I get a message telling me the version of Kontakt I'm using is too old for the plugin.

It works ok in Kontakt standalone player but not as a plugin in the VEPro - host or standalone version, so I'm assuming it's a VE Pro issue?

Thanks, CD

Hi, I noticed an issue similar to what someone else has described here. After a while, VEPRO in my DAW will not show any server instances to connect to (on my same network, no slave). However, when I input the specific server and instance information, it will connect with no problem, even though it doesn't show that being available. Not a huge deal I guess, since I can manually connect the instances, but worth noting.

Hi, 

Quick update: The connectivity troubles should be fixed now with today's release, VE Pro 7.2.1503, available in your Vienna Assistant. Thanks for your patience!

Best, 
Paul

Hello everyone,

Great that VST3 integration, thank you. Just a small detail for me, when I reset the Plugins, only one problem is VSL Powerpan. I get the following message:"Failed validation:(VST3) VSL Powerpan1 plug-in failed validation and has been disabled.Check that you are using the latest version of the disabled plug-in(s) and try another rescan.

Thank you to the whole VSL team !

Windows 11 - 64bits - 64 Go

Cubase Pro 12 - VSL (almost complete) - MIR Pro - Native - rme-Fireface UX, etc... Dorico-Sibelieus-Finale ....

Since the latest update 7.2.1516 I've had a critical issue (bug?) where Nuendo freezes for ages after changing snapshots or adding channels/plugins.

Win 11 servers, win 11main DAW, Nuendo 12.0.52, using no vst3 plugins still on kontakt 6.7.1

My score template has ~2300 disabled tracks. (disabled in VEP not Nuendo) with 4 remote servers (2 win10, 2 win11). Adding a plugin or adding channels in a server, even changing a snapshot in Kontakt 6.7.1 would cause Nuendo to freeze for up the 3minutes. During which the server instances are still playable but Nuendo becomes unresponsive for anywhere from 20 to 180second then returns back to responsive. Sometimes longer if I page through a few snapshots then stop on one. A workflow killer.

Rolling back DAW and all servers to 7.1.1406 solved the issue.

Has anyone else experienced Cubendo freezing temporarily when making changes to channels and plugins of server instances in big projects? It's reminiscent of an earlier v7 issue.

Finally bit the bullet and updated to v 7.3.3335 because I needed support for Kontakt7 (VST3-only.)  That meant moving from the old verification dongles to iLok on my two servers, but that seemed to go just fine. Installed Vienna Assistant, did the iLoc transfer to my account, down loaded and installed the new 7.3.3335 and on the SERVERS, everything looks good.  iLok shows everything is activated, my old settings came over into the new version's preferences, and all my VST3s load perfectly.

HOWEVER, my DAW machine no longer sees the two servers. I made sure Bonjour was running on everything and that none of the machines had an active firewall going. I made sure the servers were set to broadcast their addresses. The three machines can see each other fine on the network, but from within the DAW, no servers show up when I either load an existing project, or try to start a new project and connect to a VEP server.  DAW is Cakewalk, which was working fine with these two servers on version 7.0 for two years.  All machines are running Win10 Pro.

This is what I do for a living, and I'm now unable to work. Considering restoring the machines from a backup and continuing without VST3 support, but since the licenses are now sitting on iLok, I imagine that my old dongles won't be able to run the servers.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Type in the actual IP in the space for the server name.

I sometimes have to do this if the machine is on another vlan. Bonjour UDP should permeate across layer 3 switch to another vlan but it does't register with vep for some reason.
