Hi Herb, thanks for your advice.
The problem is, that i dont know how the different things should work, because i didnt know them yet.

I run the Directory manager and assigned the volume, where sound data is installed.

if i click on "Rescan", this button simply disappears, thats it.
No activity.

So i dont know, if i should do anything in addition to that and close this inactive program.

The licence procedere should also be allright, i dont know (?)


in logic, the left area says that "the following libs are licenced" and shows all the single parts of the collection.

Selecting one (e.g.: solo violin) by doubleclicking or hitting enter (as suggested), or doublecklicking AND hitting enter or doing this ten times has no effect.

i dont think, there is anything going on like browsing or so...

There will be a dedictaed registration area for the Vienna Instruments, you can't use the old one.
However, our tech departement ist just finalizing everything, so the new Vienna Instruments user area should be online this evening.

Great - I hope they make it [[:)]]

PS: I know its a little thing, but I really happy about your installer (working automaticly, asking for the next disk etc). Installing the old products was a pain - I'm happy you fixed it [[:)]]

Thanks Christian,

I just get the information that everything is OK with the new user Area.
So we should see it soon.

Paul will also start working on video tutorial where you can watch the whole installation and registration process.
Sorry, that we couldn't support this from the beginning, but this Video only make sense with the activated new User Area.

Herb

Real soon I hope, since Cubase wont launch now, since I havent activated your products yet [:)]

HTF, as i'm technogically challenged i'll ask the obvious stuff, just in case enthusiasm has jumped the obvious. No offence intended.

Firstly, have you had a look from Mac finder to see if the samples and files are installed?

Secondly, if they're installed ok, are the on the same disk as other sample libraries you have? Do those already installed libraries show up and WORK in Logic?

Is your Vienna Key active for the box that has the VI? (Understanding herb's response that registration is in the final setting up stage.)

Have you actually tried using a VI within a track? Does this require a check of midi ports, and audio stream? Do you need to review audio/midi setup?

If i can think of any more, i'll write some more.

Regards, and good luck, Rome was NOT built in a day. But it looked damned good when it was up!

Alex.

Happy Tree Friend,

maybe a silly question, how long did your library installation process take?

Herb

WELL: Finally i got it to work!

But i dont know exactly why

I checked the directory manager several times, after that logic crashed 2 or 3 times reporting an syncrosoft licence problem.
I wanted to give it up and wait until registration works, but opening it the 3rd (or 4th) time, it suddenly worked!

So far installation...

BUT THEN:

Wow! This stuff is so absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!
I just tried out the solo violin and it makes me stoned!!!

i'll stop posting, i have a pretty cool tool that needs my attention now [[[[;)]]]] [[[[;)]]]]

Thanks Alex for your hints (it was a good hint to mention the hard disk drive - even if it was not the problem - because its new (specially for the VIs) and it _could_ have been a reason!!

To be honest:
when i played the first notes with the VI i had to think at your sentence about Rome... [:D] [:D]

PS: Herb and the whole VSL Team:

a huge compliment!!! This is a new dimension in sampled orchestra!!!
Keep on building it [[[[;)]]]]

HTF,
You are most welcome, and I'm sure you'll have much enjoyment. Not to mention, never sleeping again, living on cheese on toast, coffee, and anything else within reach!

I suspect your enthusiastic response will be the first of many.....

Regards,

Alex

Don't stay away too long HTF there's a community hanging on your every word - keep us informed how it's going - you are our trailblazer. [:)]

dear early adopters of vienna instruments,
my apologies for beeing late - as always some unexpected issues turned up ...
please start here and let me know if something still doesn't work

christian

So far so good [:)]

@herb said:

No, thats not a bad question at all [[;)]]

I started the installation at 5:00 pm and got it running at 9:00 pm (+/-)
But i have to mention that i justed installed one of the five libs (Solo Strings) as far.


Ok, if this forum would be a video-chat, you would probably rather ask me, why i have a smile on my face since 9:00 pm, a smile like after really good sex...
