    Hi all,

    I have just bought VEP5, so pretty new to it and little bit lost.

    I had before a template inside protools with all my VSL instruments loaded within Pro Tools. And I would like now to go through VEP5 but don't know how to link my instrument tracks in VEP5 wih Instrument tracks in PT.

    As an example, for example with Dimension Brass, I have created 4 instrument tracks in PT, one for each horn, so I can edit them separately. PT was taking care of VIP in an insert in each tracks.

    Now I have created a template in VEP5 with all my VSL instruments. So for the example, let's say I have created four tracks in VEP for each horn in Dimension Brass.

    However, now I want to link the 4 instrument tracks in PT with the 4 instrument tracks in VEP, so when I play the horn 1 in PT, it only activates the Horn 1 track in VEP.

    Sorry for the noob question and thanks for your help.

    Assuming that they are connected to the same MIDI port, you need to make sure that the MIDI channel in Pro Tools corresponds to the appropriate MIDI channel in VEP.

    Free Pro Tools 12 & VEP5 Template.

    Here. I just made a full midi orchestra template that uses just two-instances VEP5 (use the 64-bit server instance) for Pro Tools 12. This one was setup with VSL Special Editions 1 and 3 with the + packs. I'm running it on a single late-2012 Mac Mini with Yosemite, 16GB RAM and a few SSD's. Enjoy and tweak to your liking.

    Hi JamesPDX, Thanks for sharing a template! I went to the link and I guess it is down. Is there any chance of me finding it alive again? Hopeful and thankful, Matt

    Yeah, nobody was using it, so I just deleted the setups. Check your PM. I sent you a link.

    Matt,

    I was just checking the mail. Did you ever get the template? I have a new one for dealing with VEP7 on one powerful machine, everything running locally to brute-force past the 6101 errors in Pro Tools 2019.5.

    LMK if you still want these. My apologies if you didn't get the file. It's a Dropbox issue. If you have another email, I can use Apple's Mail Drop feature to send you what you need.

     

    Cheers,
