    I was getting audio output fine for a while with several instruments in SE & SE+.  Then some setting changed, and now I get no audio output from any instrument.  When I load an instrument in VEPRO-Advanced View, I get no audio when I click on the the virtual keyboard.  The instrument is loaded in VIPro, but the keys on the virtual keyboard do not move.  

    I am now getting error messages about the Audio Engine.  Bad ASIO.  Where is the Audio Engine options selector hidden?  I cannot find it in either VEPro or VIPro.

    I assume you are talking about the standalone versions. There is a Configuration button in the top. If you click that a popup appears and you can choose audio settings.

    Thanks for the suggestion, but it did not solve the problem. I still get no audio from VEPro.

    No, I do not use the stand-alone versions of either VEPro or VIpro. I use VEPro Server 64 bit and VIPro integrated into VEPro Server 64 Bit (see screen shot.) I still cannot find any select of the Audio Engine in either VE Pro Server 64 or VIPro.

    However, I did follow your suggestion by loading Vienna Instruments Pro Standalone, and on top I found Application>Preferences. Under Select Audio Device, I found 10 devices (see screen shot.) Selecting ASIO produced an error message: Error starting audio, Bad Device. My speakers are connected via USB3. I selected WIndows Audio; Speakers (3-USB AUDIO DAC.) It worked. I was able to load an instrument and get audio through my speakers. But when I closed Vienna Instruments Pro Standalone and opened VEPro Server 64-bit with VIPro inside, I get no audio. When I load an instrument in VIPro, the virtual keyboard keys do not move, and I get no sound.

    So, how (and where) do I select WIndows Audio; Speakers (3-USB AUDIO DAC.) as my Audio Engine Device in VIPro or VEPro Server 64-bit? (not the stand-alone versions.)

    Hi starrmark, 

    If you are using Vienna Ensemble Pro Server, it will only work if it is connected with your DAW (and uses the audio settings of your DAW as well), 

    Best,

    If you use Sibelius you must alter the audio engine settings in Sibelius, because its playback engine gets used. In the play tab there is a button for the instrument configuration popup, then on the bottom left is the audio engine settings. Tweak them until you are happy. You can use a higher buffer rate if you notice drop outs.
