  • Special Edition Bb Clarinet 2

    I see from the January promotion that owners of the Special Edition Volume 4 can download the new SE Bb Clarinet 2 for free. Thank you!

    How do I do that? I don't see it in MyVSL library downloads..

    Hi DaddyO,

    As a registered user of SE Vol 4 you should see that extra download under Library Downloads in MyVSL.
    If you cannot see it, please send a screenshot that shows that you are logged in to support@vsl.co.at, we will check!

    Best,
    Paul

    Thank You for the new instrument! ๐Ÿ˜Š

    I downloaded and installed the clarinet. It's Ok so, or should I add a license in the eLicenser Control Center? 


  • Hi matteo, 

    You're most welcome!

    The Clarinet in Bb 2 for SE is crypted with the SE Volume 4 license, no additional license necessary.

  • Paul,

    Thanks. I returned from being gone all day, and now the download is showing up under Library Downloads.

  •  Greetings,

    I too have noticed the special offer for Woodwinds+Choir+Clarinet (Bb) 2 & would be very interested to purchase it. But being unfamiliar with VSL packages, I would need your advise before going ahead.

    My question: what do I need to download as a pre-requisite  in order to play the above package. I was thinking of getting Vienna Instruments Pro. But then I remeber reading a post reporting some concerns about some VSL packages not working satisfactorily with Cubase. My version is Cubase Pro 8.5.

    In thanking you for your help, I wish all of you a most rewarding 2017.

    Hi Giacinto, besides purchasing a ViennaKey, the standard version of Vienna Instrument player is included, just you need to downlaod it separately โ€”also with standard Vienna Ensembleโ€”, so you don't need to buy any further to start.

    Can't tell about Cubase issues.

    Hope it helps

    I wish you a Happy 2017

  • Hello Giacinto, 

    Our software works fine with all versions of Cubase, you simply need to switch off ASIO Guard for our network hosting software Vienna Ensemble / PRO, as this might introduce latency troubles in your setup (that's 2 clicks). 

    Vienna Instruments and Vienna Instruments PRO are just fine. 

    Best, 
    Paul

    What's about the owners of the "old" special edition ? ๐Ÿ˜

    Hi TFIS, 

    You can get exactly the same deal ๐Ÿ˜Š, all Special Editon Users are equal.
    As soon as you get SE Volume 4 (right now with 25% discount), we throw in the SE Clarinet in Bb 2. 

    Best, 
    Paul

  • Is this a brand new clarinet? It looks like I might have all the instruments of SE 4, purchased separately (not sure). Maybe not, as I don't see the clarinet in my downloads.


  • Hi Gary, 

    I couldn't find any Special Editions on your account, but you also already have the Clarinet in Bb2 (the complete original version) registered on your account. 

    The free add-on to SE Vol 4 is a smaller version of the Clarinet in Bb2 that you already have access to. 

    Best, 
    Paul

  • May I ask which is the difference between the Full Clarinet 2, and this Special Edition? I can't find any information in the web site.

    Hi Paolo,

    This is the sample content of the bug Clarinet in Bb 2 (click on the arrow).

    And like all other woodwind instruments in SE Volume 4, these 4 articulations are available for the additional Clarinet in Bb 2 in the SE Vol 4.

    Best,
    Paul

  • Paul, thank you very much for your answer. So, if I understand correctly, the SE version of Clarinet 2 is the same as the Full one, including the extended articulations and the multiphonics?

    Paolo


  • Hello Paolo, 

    No, the SE Version of the Clarinet in Bb 2 is a small version with 4 standard articulations (like all Special Edition instruments): Staccato, Sustains, Sforzato, Legato.

    You can click the links in the previous post to see the difference. 

    Best, 
    Paul

  • Paul, I see. I'm sorry, but I couldn't understand the first one was the link to the full one. Well, the SE Clarinet 2 will be very useful as an orchestral 2nd clarinet.

    Paolo


  • Got it, thx Paul.
