  4. Problem with multiport template for LPX

  • Problem with multiport template for LPX

    Hi,

     

    I´m trying to use VEP6 with Logic Pro X 10.2.4. But it only plays normal if I have some midi channel of the same VEP6 instance selected. If not, as in the picture, it sounds as in the mp3 clip. Why does this happen? :/

     

    I can´t use VEP6 at all because of this. I have a slave PC with all my sounds. 

     

    I´m using the "VE Pro 5 Multiport 6x16 Ports Logic Pro X". I´m also wondering how I´m supposed to add more VEP6 instances in logic if I need more than 6 VEP6 instances? (I use about 12 in my VEP6 Template)

     

     

    Plz help me, I need this to work ASAP.

    With Logic Pro, my  advice is to eschew the multiport and use an articulation switcher like Peter Schwartz's Articulation IDz or Ski Switcher 2 or the Audio Grocery Toolkit and use 1 VE Pro instance per instrument. It works  great with a large orchestra.

    Thank you for the advice.

    So like 500 Vep instances on a slave PC? Sounds kind of like a mess =D

     

    One thing I´ve noticed so far is (only when using VEP6 on a slave PC) that logic actually freezes for a couple of milliseconds randomly. If I look at the mixer all the meters stop for a short second (freezes). If I use the pan it also freezes when it happens. Is this normal for LPX and VEP?

    Wow, really? Like 500 Vep instances on a slave PC? Sounds kind of like a mess =D

    500? What the hell kind of orchestra is that?

    My Hollywood orchestra on my slave PC has: Piccolo, Flute, Alto Flute, Bass Flute, Oboe, Bb Clarinet, English Horn, Bassoon, Bass Clarinet, Contra Bsn.

    6 Fr Horns .solo Fr Horn, solo Fr Horn 2. solo Fr Horn 3, 3 Trpts, solo Tpt 1, solo Tpt 2, solo Tpt 3, 3 Trbs, solo Trb 1, solo Trb 2, soloTrb 3, Tuba, Cimbasso, Low Brass

     Bells & Chimes, Celeste, Cymbals, Gran Casse, Mallets, Misc Perc, Snare Drums, Tambourine, Timpani, Woods

     Harp, Vln 1, Vln 2, Vla, Celli, Solo Vln, Solo Cello

    In VE Pro 6 on my Mac, I have a similar group of Kontakt instances. The rest is loaded in Logic Pro directly.

    Yes i have around 500 tracks in my Cubase 8.5 template. 

    Do you know why my LPX is freezing? (As I wrote in my previous post). Everything freezes constantly while playing. The timer freezes constantly and the mixer, well everything, but the sound is continuing like normal. But I ofcourse can´t have it like this. Happens to anyone else when using VEP on a slave PC?

    I don't know but I don't trust the multiport at all.

    It´s when not using multiport. I have just loaded in a few multi timbral Instrument tracks with VEP6 on each. Very wierd and extremely annoying.
