    Christian,
    Will the vienna instrument be capable of loading other VSL packages? e.g. Pro edition, horizon etc.?

    Regards,

    Alex.

    unfortunately not ...
    - *normal* libraries are 16 bit only
    - they are not configured in enough dimensions
    - older content is inherited in the new vienna instruments

    Thanks.
    I felt sure this question would come up sooner or later, so now we know early.

    How many computers are licensed per copy?

    you need to have a VIENNA KEY attached to the computer you want to run a collection, but you can run each collection on a seperate computer if you want.

    what if you need to spread one collection across more than one computer, i mean for simple ease of setting up templates it would be nice to have all collections available on all computers.

    well, currently this must be put into the category *nice to have*. in case your setup needs it, it will be easy to transfer a collection license from one computer to another

    well the easy transfer is great, all you would need.

    so it sounds like a seperate purchase for a side license for addditional computers??

    as far as i can see now, there should be no need to run a collection on more than one computer (from a technical point of view)

    Hi Christian thanks for the replies.

    Any chance on ellaborating on the VIENNA KEY? I guess its a USB dongle of sorts - any chance it's compatible with the Steinberg key - that would save me some hassle with USB ports....

    TIA

    Excellent I have three - lol. I remember the days when you didn't have to pay for them.....

    when you do spread it across multiple computers do you have to have a host on each computer, or can it stand alone? do we have to buy vstack or something?

    I have always used giga studio so I am not used to plugins samplers very much. Thanks

    a VIENNA INSTRUMENT can run as AU, VST or stand-alone

    I think that you will be able to use it exactly the same way as you currently use GS, if you want to.

    It would be nice if all the hosting possibilities could be listed or at least the optimal hosting. For example I have a Dual 2.7 and two Giga platforms so I would run AU on the Mac and as stand alone or VST on the PC's or would it run along side GS or?

    Anyone got 2 cents on that?

    Can the Vienna key be the same key as a Logic XSkey? Or do I now need two dongles hanging on my system? If it can be the same key, is there a way to move the vienna key to a diffedrent key should I decide to sell Logic.
  • T

    dbuddle - if Logic uses the same Synchrosoft driver as Cubase then the answer would be yes - however not being a logic user I can't comment for sure.

    The Synchrosoft driver is pretty good and you can move licences between keys quite happily - which is what I have currently done for things like Cubase and Hypersonic - they were on two keys now just the one.
