  • [SOLVED] not seeing jazz drums or upright bass in VI pro

    I had some hard drive issues and had to reconfigure things.  Everything is back to normal except Vienna Instruments Pro does'nt "see" my jazz drums or upright bass folders and does not not list them at all in the patch library (on the right). Anyone got a clue why?


  • Two things to try:

    1. Remove all folders from directory Manager and then add them again
    2. Update eLicenser to latest version

  • Hello,

    I have done both procedures, but I still cannot get to my JAZZ DRUMS.

    In the mixer view in VI pro the required drums are all listed, and receive midi. But the instrument views do not come up and there is no signal in the level meters (and in the DAW).

    (I can access the upright bass.)

    The drums have stopped in the VI pro since migration to a new PC using Windows 8.1. Everything else of VSL, including the other libraries, works (so far).

    Any clue on what to do to ake it work again ?

    regards,


  • Hello gkruse!

    Could it be that you have loaded one of the VIFrames for the classic Vienna Instruments player? These VIFrames include Bus channels and these Bus channels will not bring up an instrument when being clicked. Have you tried loading a Jazz Drums VIFrame for Vienna Instruments 5?

    If the Jazz Drums don't even show up in the patch list, please check that the key with the license is attached, the library content is installed and the folder with the content (.dat files) is assigned in the Directory Manager.

  • Hi,

    In the mixer view in VI pro the required drums are all listed, and receive midi. But the instrument views do not come up and there is no signal in the level meters (and in the DAW).

    I have used the VIframes for VI pro and all others. I have redownloaded the Jazzdrums and the Jazzdrum utilities and installed all anew. I have tried all other Jazz drums VIframes. All to no avail.

    All other vsl instruments work as expected with Cubase 7.5 with VI pro and VE pro 5 as they used on the pre-migration PC (on Windows 7). Only the Jazz drums don't.

    In you, Andy, or anyone would know a of a method to make the old Jazz drums come to live again on my new Windows 8.1 PC ??

    regards,

  • Hello Gerard!

    There are no VI Pro VIFrames for the Jazz Drums. Could it be that you have only VI Pro isntalled and not the free Vienna Instruments & Vienna Ensemble software? Please note that the VIFrames for the Jazz Drums have been saved with normal Vienna Instruments loaded and if you don't have Vienna Instruments installed, they will not show up. So the solution for your problem might be installing the Vienna Instruments & Vienna Ensemble software.

  • Andi,

    That was it. Thanks very much for your perseverance, and please accept my apology for being kind of narrow sighted

    (but then again, I change PC only every 7 years or so, and did not think about installing the VE and VI with which I started with VSL on the previous PC),

    regards,

    Gerard
