  • Notion4 and VSL SE1

    Hi, I have got the following problem. When I choose a preset of an instrument (e.g. the violins) in Notion4, everything works, exept the dynamics. When I add a dim or cresc, neither the velocity x-fade nor die expression moves in the vienna instruments plugin. Either vel.x-fade and expression are assigned to "control change" and the controller "expression". When turning off the vel.x-fade, I can assign different dynamics to certain notes via "velocity overdub". But I also need to have a dynamic-change during one note, of course. Does anyone know that problem or at least a solution to it? Thanks a lot... Jan

  • Probably better to be posting this on the Notion forum...

  • Hello Jan!

    The dynamics work without problems here. First I'd like to recommend updating to the latest Notion 4 version. The Notion team fixed some playback bugs in this version. If this doesn't help, did you load the Vienna Instruments from the VSL Special Edition menu in the Notion Score Setup?

    Best regards,

  • Hello Andi, I already installed the latest Version. And yes - I loaded the VI from the VSL Special Edition Menu. One thing: I chose the SE for Notion 3, because I own the old Special Edition. Is that right? Best regards Jan

  • Hello Jan!

    The content of the Special Edition didn't change. So there is no "old" or "new" Special Edition. Anyway, if you have installed your content from the Special Edition DVDs, you can do a Library update which fixes a few bugs and adds matrices and presets for VI Pro users.

    Actually I don't see any reason to use the Notion 3 presets.

  • Hi Andi,

    When I look at the instrument presets in Notion, I'm perplexed by all the redundant sample content.  I know VSL had nothing to do with creating them, but wonder if you can comment on that?

  • Hello Bill!

    The "fxp" presets are for the classic Vienna Instruments player, the "vipst" presets are for the new Vienna Instruments player and the "vipreset" presets are for the Vienna Instruments Pro player.

  • Hi Andi,

    I don't mean redundant in that way, I mean that within a given "vipst" instrument, almost half the cells in the various matrices are sustain or staccato patches, etc

  • Hi Bill!

    This question should be pointed at the Notion team then. They have built these presets. Anyway, it doesn't cause any harm. Even if a patch gets loaded multiple times, it only gets loaded to RAM once.
