Kontakt 6 and 7

[janamdo]

Don't get plugin 64 bit kontakt 6 and 7 Vsti in vienna ensemble standalone and server for windows 11?

Hi, 

Kontakt 6 should work just fine. 

Unfortunately VE Pro 7 does not support VST3 yet, so Kontakt 7 won't work in VE Pro 7 at this point. 

Remark: It will help if you add some details about your setup (OS, used versions...)

Best, 
Paul

Good to know that kontakt 7 is not ready yet for VEP

Paul, of course after these projects ( 2 films over the next 5 months.) I'll update VEP7 to latest but for now I have stay with it to get through these.   Any idea when Kontakt 7 vst3 will work in VEP7?

Hi Rob, 

We're testing the VST3 implementation in VE Pro 7 right now, it should be ready next week.

Best,
Paul

Great news Paul.   Thank you for your prompt response.   Once I get through these films I am looking forward to updating my WHOLE VSL rig.  😊 (and of course adding to it with the latest)

Dear Paul and the VSL Team.

Any idea when vst3 is working?
On dec 19 you wrote in this thread the vst3 support is expected next week. Now more than a week past that post, it seems not working still.
Many of my installed plugs are vst3 versions (e.g. cinematic rooms, Fabfilter series etc) 
An important thing: Kontakt 7 is vst3 only! so no option to use a vst2 version.
And before you say: revert to Kontakt 6 e.g., this won't work either, since i have diverse libraries that require kontakt 7. Hence the question: when will vst3 support be ready so it recognizes the vst3 plugs i have? :-)

In case you read this in 2023......
Happy New Year in advance ;) 

 

Note i am using windows 11 pro, cubase 12 pro

Hi Rogier, 

Yes, Sorry for that delay. A good reminder why we shouldn't announce things, even though it looked safe. 

We have been in close contact with quite some 3rd party developers to guarantee VST3 functionality. Unfortunately, not all VST3 issues can be resolved from our side exclusively - but most importantly: We want to get this right and some fixes took a bit longer than anticipated.

Definitely looking at a release of this update in the first week of the new year!

Thanks for your understanding and patience!

Any news as we approach the end of the first week of the new year.

Yours patiently. John

Hi,

Sorry for the late update.

Always a bit tricky being the messenger of delays.

We're still testing and improving the VST3 compatibility of VE Pro 7, along with the fixes announced in the retracted VE Pro version 1427.

Thanks for your patience and my apologies for another delay!

Best,
Paul

Hi Paul! This is important certainly. I’m about to rebuild a template on a new machine. I’d definitely hold off on doing my server project if vst3 is just around the corner. Is there an update on the ETA for the next update? It would be interesting to see how VEPro performs with vst3 Kontakt 7 and other players etc. Cheers Simon.
