With the new update, after several crashes, no server was available to connect to, consistently. Can't be me, after I reverted it's working as it should.

Sorry, that wasn't a good sentence. The crashes aren't going to belong to the new version. Generally they belong to the intersection of BFD2 64-bit in any VE Pro 5, IME. VEP crashed during a render and the log pointed there, for instance.

But this nothing to connect to is new and I encountered it three times in a row, so I uninstalled and installed the penultimate build.

Hi, 

Our developers are looking into this problem as we speak. 

Shouldn´t happen with Logic, though. 

TIRI, could you please send some screenshots to  for me to check?

Thanks, 

Paul

Hello Tiri, 

Just some screenshots that show VE PRO Server open, and the Server Interface plug-in (on the same screen), with the eLCC software open, and maybe step by step  from inserting the Server Interface - basically so that I can see what you see... 

Thanks, 

Paul

Hi there, the same is happening for me too.  I am using only one computer - no slave.

All software is up to date. 

I open VEP PRO Server 64-bit, load up a metaframe, and an instance of VEP opens with an audio input ready.

Thanks,

Hi Paul,

Still not working for me.  Its very strange, because a few days ago, when I first installed MIR, and thought I would start to migrate to using VEP5 as a server so that I can keep instruments loaded between Logic songs, it worked! I managed to get a single channel of audio from Logic to VEP5 successfully.  Then I wanted to be able to automate the faders in VEP5, so I looked up the instructions and inserted the VEP Pro Event Input plugin on an instrument track in Logic and then found that the instance of available VEP5s was blank.  Going back to the audio channel, this too was now showing "not assigned" and none available in the list.  After numerous retarts, and creating new Logic songs and new VEP5 instances, no luck.

So now I have installed the newest version of VEP5 as you suggested, restarted, and now it is the same deal.

The OS is 10.8.5, Logic X 10.0.6, Intel Xeon 8-core with 18 GB RAM.

Thanks,

Jack

Hi Jack and Charlie,

Please send me some screenshots that show both the VE PRO Server in the background open and the connected Server Interface and then the Event/Audio Input plug-ins.

Please include your OS versions and used software versions.

Charlie, does it work if you type 127.0.0.1 in the SLAVE field?

Best,

Paul

Hi Paul ,

I have also sent my screenshot to  

It has taken a while, but what solved my issue (see above) was to disable Little Snitch, and Norton Firewall.  Little Snitch I found wasn't configurable to let the VEP server connect with Logic, and the Norton Firewall was picking up the connection attempts as "suspicious activity", therefore blocking them.  Strangely, though, even after registering all the attempts as "trustworthy" it still didn't work, so I have disabled the Norton Firewall and enabled the OSX firewall which doesn't seem to have a problem.
