I used a program with a 30 day free trial called ReGet Pro 3.4.
It downloaded all 13 cabs in about an hour. But now I don't know what to do with the cabs. When I click on any of them it says "not a valid archive." How do I open a cab?

Austin,

I think you are looking in wrong place,

Go here:

Uer Area / Vienna Instruments / Bonus Files

JBacal.....


Put all the cabs AND the "Package" file in one folder....

Now launch your APP called "Vienna Instruments Library Instller" and direct yourself to that "Package FIle"....

Remember?

Just like when you first installed the VIs

After that is done you will need to launch the APP "Vienna Instrument Directory Manager"

You are only minutes away [;)]

Thanks Svk. I was banging my head against the wall there for a few minutes. [:D]

Best,
Jay

J Bacal,

Sure thang [;)]

SvK

Austin-- you need to have registered the "Extended" strings too see the new downloads.

JBacal

try this....

1st note : perf-leg Progressive vibrato (hold for 3 seconds....swell with mod-wheel....turn on velocity crossfade and assign mod-wheel)

2nd note: key switch to Strong Vibrato (with mod-wheel at top hold for 2 sec)

3d note: keyswicth to perf leg Sforzando


kewl huh [;)]

SvK

I feel like such a cheat.....holding down a MA7 chord with Appassionatta Violins = 80 violins!!!!!

hahahaha

so be it.

You mean I can't get the Appassianata Strings without having the "extended" portion of the Orchestral Strings 1? I thought the requirement was Pro Edition upgrading to the Orchestral Strings 1? I have all the Volumes out thus far but none are "extended" yet just "standard".

I don't know what Herb's plans are for the future but as of tonight the only way to download them is to register the extended.

Thanks, Herb and VSL team!!

This Appassionata release is much larger than I expected. It will take a while to digest. But I can already tell that I will really appreciate having the p dynamics with stronger vibrato. The Sul G patch sounds great. I'm certain that I will find many uses for the new progressive vibrato patch. And I absolutely love the new cres/dim and pfp patches especially with that lovely vibrato at the softer dynamics.

Well, I'm off to finally tackle Vaughn Williams’ Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis. I'm hopeful that now I might be able to finally do some justice to this magnificent piece.

Thanks again and best wishes,
Jay

A DEMO PLEAAAAASE!

But why on earth would you not get extended? Thats where you get your discount for being a PRO ED owner.. it will cost under $100

Anyway, DOWNLOADING NOW [H]

Demo! DEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMOOOOOO!!!!! PLease!

For heavens sake please post a demo!!!!!

These are sounding great... I might make somelittle demo later (with the chance of J doing the same and putting me to shame).

I must say that the Legato_Sfz patch is such a great idea... Its a subtle difference, but very cool and usuable.

Back to playing with patches.

oh come on guys. you have the thing for hours and noone even made a short mp3 demo yet? thats poor. are you all sleeping? [:)] come on we're curious!

Herb,

When you get a moment, could you post the number of velocity layers for each patch?

Thanks,
Jay

Herb, some really good sounds here. I've just finished programming a violin line, so I'm going to re-do it with AV so that I can do an A/B comparison. I'm sure that I'll be pleased.

Now all I need is more articulations such as zigane, the Appassionata Violas and especially the Cellos. Basses I can do without...!

I think that what I've heard so far means that this really should become a viable collection for later sale, so your initial generosity in providing these sounds should pay for itself in the long run. I certainly haven't heard any other string patches that can compare with these, so thanks again, and I am looking forward to playing with them

For what it's worth

Could have tweaked the midi a bit more, but it should serve as a good idication of the sound....

To Herb.. Thanks - its fantastic. Having these for Celli would be amazing... I really hope(and beleive) you will consider it.

Thanks for that snippet, Christian. Good to hear the sound at last...
