  • ILok Issues Vienna Ensemble Pro 7 and VSL Big Bang Libraries

    Hi, 

    I'm encountering some problems with my ILok cloud setup in conjunction with Vienna Ensemble Pro 7/Big Bang libraries and my computer setup.

    My computer setup:

    Master: Imac 24 M1 16GB of Ram 2TB SSD-->My master computer. I run Cubase here and some of the Big Bang libraries because they are resource efficient. 

    Slave: MacBook Pro M1 Pro 32GB of Ram, several SSDs with several libraries on it. I use the master/slave setup for bigger projects and I run Vienna Ensemble Pro 7 server on this computer. 

    Now the problem: From time to time, I get an error messages on the slave(MacBook Pro) both from ILok and within VEPRO 7 that there is an open cloud session on the other computer and if I want to switch the licence to the current computer (the slave computer). This normally works, but is quite annoying. I have e.g. a ILok cloud licence for the reverb plug-in Cinematic Rooms that has to run on the Master computer, so I can't stop the cloud session on the Master computer. And what should I do when I want to use the Big Bang libraries on my Master computer in parallel with the Slave computer using Vienna Ensemble Pro 7? Is there any workaround to avoid error messages from Ilok Cloud that there is an open session on another computer?

    Thanks and best regards
