  • An other problem with Logic Gold 5.5 (PC)

    I use Vienna Special Edition with Logic Gold 5.5.1 and all woks fine except one small thing. I make a song with some VI instances and save that in a logic song. when I restart logic and want to load this song, I get an error message that there is no vinna instruments to find!

    so I got a strange thought and saw in the vst plug in folder of logic. there a two different files: 1) vienna instruments.dll and 2) vienna instruments.cfg.
    If I delete the cfg file before I start logic again, all will work fine?!

    That could not be a serious solution, could it?

    any ideas how I can use Vi with logic more pleasantly?

    thanks

  • Hi Sebastian. I'd advise against deleting the .cfg. file unless you know exactly what it is, it may contain vital information which helps the Vienna Instrument to function. Try <reset & rescan all> in LogicĀ“s AU Manager, maybe it will help Logic find the VI.

  • i have not a au manager, because I use logic with windows!

    thanks for your advise. I'm shure that the .cfg file is important, but I tried this option of course. after logic starts a new .cfg file will created.

    is there a known bug with logic? maybe the vsl team knows something about that?

  • vsl team knows that logic is an apple brand since 2003 (prior ?)
    which means: unsupported !

    which means: no chance for us to provide a fix.
    which does not mean " it may _not_ work"

    btw: what r u running ? Win95?

    thanks

  • Hi ask-berlin

    I had the same problem. The solution is easy:
    In the Logic5/VSTplugins folder there's a file called

    Vienna Instruments.cfg

    Every time you finish Logic this files' content is deletet - 0kb in size.
    Just activate the writing protection for this file after a fresh installation of the plugin and the plugin won't disappear again [:)]

    Best Regards

    I hope there is a only a misunderstanding, becuase it sounds as i'm not taken seriously!
    i know that i use an older version of logic, but 1. this version is still a great sequencer and 2. not every one who loves making orchestramusic have always enough money having a great equipment [:'(]

    I use just the VI special edition and not the cube...that has a reason! [:(]

    and here the real answer, i use xp pro with an 3400 amd cpu and 2 gig ram

  • Good to know your problem is fixed. I admire you for sticking to the older version of Logic, stick with it if it works for you!
