1.NEW: "MIR Unprocessed" mixer presets for SYNCHRON-ized products! 2/24/2021 8:30:58 AM

We just added new mixer presets to all SYNCHRON-ized products (including our SYNCHRON-ized Special Editions). which makes it more comfortable to integrate those instruments with MIR Pro. 

The whole Synchron Player mixer is reset for this purpose, so that you're ready to apply the MIR magic to dry samples. 

What is reset?

  • EQ
  • Impulse Response
  • Algo Reverb
  • Panorama
  • Volume

Find all SYNCHRON-ized Library Updates in MyVSL and the changelogs here. 

Best, 
Paul

 

Hello Paul,

great news!
Are these for Synchron-ized strings only? I can't find any recent update for Synchron-ized Woodwinds with the MIR unprocessed mixer preset.
Thanks

I nevert encountered such problems, be it with my

- current notebook i5 8250U @1.8GHz, 16 GB RAM, NVMe SSD (2-3 mics work fine @128 buffer size).

1) What exact version of Windows 10 are you running?
2) Are you running stock Windows, or did you already optimized any settings related to performance and energy consumption, data-collection...?
3) Are you using ASIO driver?
4) What audio interface are you using at what buffer size?

Best, Ben

Hi Ben,

thanks for your reply.
Both of the computer I tested was Mac systems (Catalina and BigSur) with integrated audio card, no external audio interface

There is a question with the CPU - Meter. The CPU will be max to 12% or 13 %, but the red Peak starts (do nothing on the fresh started computer) with 42 %. Just hit the pedal will rise up to 87% without playing a note. While playing it is about 100% fortunately without any drops...

Not a big deal,  the sound is perfect, but it looks a bit strange to me...others?

I have never been able to play live ANY of the Synchron Pianos... I tried first on a 6-core i7 with 16GB RAM and internal NVMe and I was not even able to complete a piece execution with the Room-Mix mic only because of continuous CPU spikes. Then I tried a 6-core i9 with 32GB RAM and internal NVMe and guess what? Room-Mix mic was ok, but adding another mic produced the much hated CPU spikes again!
In both cases I set the buffer at 64 (since with higher it's impossible to play live) and the preload size to maximum (32768).
If one would play only pedal-less pieces than he MIGHT be able to use more mics, but... seriously?
I've read on another popular forum of people having CPU spikes even on a 2019 16-core Mac Pro!
To me and with my equipment, Synchron Pianos are currently unusable for live playing :(

I'd very like to know the exact setup that VSL and their demo contributors used to play and record their audio demos.

4.Typing Problem VSL Forums ONLY 2/8/2021 8:16:14 AM

Hello,

that probably depends on the text editor they implemented, which create a new paragraph each time you press the ENTER key.
To avoid that extra empty line simply press SHIFT+ENTER instead of ENTER

I'd looove a VSL sampled Fazioli 308!!

Hello Paul,

will there be demo licenses of 280VC before the promotional price expires?
Thanks

Hi Paul,

many thanks, using Legato Agile on the first note and regular Legato on the following ones solved my problem!

Hello Paul,

I have attached an audio excerpt (violins 1 only) from my current project and a screenshot of Cubase editor.
Here I am using the legato patch only, no xfade and max velocity on first note.

Hope you can help
Bests

9.YAY **Synchron Strings Pro** NOW available! 1/26/2021 4:43:37 PM

Hello,

there's a reason why starting a phrase with legato patches causes the first note to be much lower in volume than the following one? That causes a very annoying bump in the music. Other VSL strings libraries don't have this issue.
Someone can help?

10.MIDI Ports and Graphic Performance Problem 1/20/2021 8:34:24 PM

Hello,

you can try these:

• disabling unwanted MIDI chasing (unchecking "Preferences > MIDI > Chase events")
• disabling MIDI reset (unchecking "Preferences > MIDI > Reset on stop" and checking instead "Never reset chased controllers")
• simplifying your MIDI CC curves by thinning out MIDI data in your tracks (MIDI > Functions > Thin out data)

11.Back up Vienna Key 1/17/2021 11:44:23 AM

All you have to do is buy the Vienna Protection Plan, which has been available for years now https://www.vsl.co.at/en/Product_Overview/Vienna_Protection_Plan

12.MIRx Synchron - update coming? 1/15/2021 4:33:03 PM

I suppose Rasmus Faber refers to the GUI elements which in MIR standalone show up with the old VE 5 graphics, while within VE Pro 7 they come in the full renewed graphics of VE 6 

13.[SOLVED] Transport not working in VEPro 7 1/15/2021 9:06:28 AM

Hello,

I'd like to reopen this thread because I have the same issue and there is nothing I can do to solve it.
I am using Big Sur and pressing the space bar from within VE Pro 7 only lights up/down the little play icon in the toolbar and nothing else. It NEVER does play/stop my daw playback (both Cubase 10.5 and 11).

I tried everything: wiping out the macOS TCC database, removing and reinstalling VE Pro 7, upgrading from Catalina to Big Sur... nothing!

UPDATE: it turned out it is WaveShell v12.0 which causes the space bar "stealing". By updating to v12.6 the problem is resolved!

14.MIRx Synchron - update coming? 1/15/2021 7:59:47 AM

Hello Dietz,

it seems Synchron MIRx preset for Chamber Basses doesn't work properly.
Please take a look at the attached screenshot: the instruments position doesn't change, such as character, equalizer and so on, and the MIRx settings window doesn't contain any preset for it.
Can you help me?

Thanks

15.Mac OS11 (Big Sur) 1/12/2021 8:20:27 AM

Hello Paul,

any news regarding Big Sur compatibility?
Can I consider it safe to update?

16.midi data sent on start & stop & solo to VEPRO7 12/28/2020 10:12:15 AM

Hi 154116,

I have a similar issue: every time I move the playhead cursor Cubase sends all of the MIDI data it finds below it   (for EVERY MIDI track) and that translates in momentary hangs, during which I can't do anything but waiting (very annoying). If you activate the MIDI activity monitor on a random track you can see it listing all of the events. I wonder if there is a way to prevent that.
Are you also experiencing such an issue?

17.BBO Zodiac Strings: where is pizzicato?? 12/1/2020 3:07:22 PM

Dear VSL,

I really appreciate you released a library with large strings sections, it sounds beautiful but... where is the pizzicato?
I can't think of a string library without it, all of your other strings library do have it.
This can't be used alone for pieces that require that articulation and if I try layering it with other ones, say dimension strings, I can clearly hear a sonority difference when the piece moves from a sustained part to a dimension-only pizzicato part.
Please tell me that you plan to integrate pizzicato (and perhaps other articulations) in a future update such as you did with Synchron Strings I cantabile.

Thanks

18.Logic articulation set with Vienna Ensemble Pro 11/22/2020 3:52:38 PM

Hi everyone,

I am planning to move my current Cubase project to Logic and I wonder how to correctly handle articulation changes.
In Cubase I have a single VE Pro plugin, connected to a unique VE Pro server instance hosting about 70 VSL instruments.
Could you please tell me how should I configure Logic to use that single server instance?

Many of VSL articulations require more than just three output parameters and if I have well understood, the only way to circumvent that Logic limitation is by using a Scripter plugin on every midi track, is that correct?

I have tried the VSL AU3 supplied templates but they support only 8 ports per server instance and the solo/mute buttons of the tracks are linked, I can’t mute/solo a single track only :(
I have also tried the old VSL multi-instruments template and that seems to support more than 8 ports and the solo/mute buttons on the tracks are not linked, but I lost the possibility to insert MIDI FX plugin into them because their channel strips don’t permit plugin attachment.

I am a bit confused and sorry if that has already been questioned before.

Hope you can help :)

19.Apple Silicon support 11/11/2020 9:26:02 AM

Dear VSL,

Would you mind telling us if you plan to migrate all of your software to the new Apple Silicon platform and if you have an estimated timeline?

Thanks in advance

20.Cubase 10.5 Pro - Hang 10/27/2020 7:55:28 AM

Hello Andi,
thanks for your response.

Here is my hardware:
• iMac 27" 2020
• i9 3.6GHz 10-core CPU
• 128GB RAM
• internal NVMe SSD
• integrated audio device

With "hang" I mean the following:
1. I move the playhead locator to a random location
2. The mouse cursor starts spinning
3. If I try clicking something else nothing happens because Cubase is frozen
4. About 3 seconds later Cubase unfreezes itself and all of the MIDI tracks activity indicator lights up
5. MIDI monitor on every MIDI tracks lists all of the recorded CCs

The problem occurs in all of my projects despite of the buffer size I use.
I have attached a short video showing the issue.
Hope you can help

Bests

21.Cubase 10.5 Pro - Hang 10/26/2020 2:30:32 PM

Hello,

I am working on a project with a lot of MIDI tracks and I am experiencing continuous hangs in Cubase every time I move the playback locator back and forth and every time I stop the playback.
I can clearly see the MIDI activity bar moving in all of my tracks and if I activate the MIDI monitor on them, it prints the list of all of the recorded CCs.

Anybody has ever experienced that?
I am using Vienna Ensemble Pro 7 with only Vienna Symphonic Library instruments attached.
Is there a way to prevent this?

22.YAY **Synchron Strings Pro** NOW available! 9/25/2020 9:55:50 AM

Hello Paul,

could you tell us how many velocity layers Synchron Strings Pro comes with?

23.iMac fan noise 8/10/2020 2:19:24 PM

Hello,

I am planning to upgrade my current working computer (i9 6-core MacBook Pro 15") for better CPU performance and cooling, in order to avoid the jet sounding fans of my current MacBook Pro.

I use Cubase + VE Pro to compose quite large orchestral audio music (about 50 virtual instruments) and particularly during the recording phase, with a reduced buffer size, the CPU is largely engaged and VE Pro consumes the majority of its resources. 
I am looking at the new 2020 iMac with i9 10-core CPU but I am a little worried about the possible noise it can make, since it's using the same old single-fan cooling.

Is there anybody which is using the last year i9 8-core iMac and can tell me what's like the fan during virtual instruments MIDI recording? Did you encounter annoying fan noise?

Thanks :)

24.Strange dropout behavior in synchron player. (Synchron strings, syn Dimension strings etc..) 7/16/2020 9:46:37 AM

I have an update: it seems that this issue occurs most often when soloing one track only.
If I open the key editor for one single track and solo it, then dropouts occur, but if I un-solo it, no longer dropouts occur, at least in this simple test I am doing today

25.Strange dropout behavior in synchron player. (Synchron strings, syn Dimension strings etc..) 7/14/2020 2:44:14 PM

I noticed Ben posted hints about editing BIOS, dumping Cubase and other Windows-only related stuff.

For the rest of us that that are on Apple platform what should we do?
Thanks
