1.VSL Bigband project? 11/23/2017 8:37:23 PM

Hi,

I am arranging for the New European Jazz Collective (NEJC) again, for the opening of the Museum Night, in the Netherlands.

The samples are great but I was wondering; that it would be absolutely fabulous to completely sample the NEJC in order to get a consistent sound pallet.

Now I, and all arrangers alike can make a selection (the dimension trumpets, trombones + some saxophones as the base and further adding some my own custom libraries - my double bass, piano and drumkit - for the rythm section) and come pretty close to a good sounding arrangement, but I miss the consistency.

Thus, we can come really far but is it worth considering to make a special VSL Big Band Edition? (I can help organizing it!)

2.Auto divisi Dimension Strings like Dimension Brass? 10/8/2017 1:53:34 PM

Blown away again by exploring the actual mic position recordings. Very nice!

But I fail to hear the auto divisi. (and it actually plays back   Which knob do I have to turn on for that? My Guess is: Voice/4 Groups/1-2 + 3-4 + 5-6 +7-8 ?

Then there is a difference in sound, but it sounds a little bit weird.

Here is a little test wav.

3.Auto divisi Dimension Strings like Dimension Brass? 10/8/2017 12:38:31 PM

Hi,

Some days ago I purchased both Dimension Brass and Dimension Strings. The Dimension Brass blew me away! Wonderful, it works pretty good for sketiching for big band too!

But the strings are organized in a very different way. As far as I understand it this is more to be considered as a sound mixing approach instead of an algorythm like Dimension Brass. I was hoping to be blown away by playing chords and hear the beautiful and lush divisi playing of some wonderful recorded strings.
They ARE recorded wonderfully, in mono . . . for a reason too - I read in the manual - but I must admit that I am slightly disappointed with the product.

I won't ask for a refund, it is just that it'll take more time to understand this "new" workflow. New in parenthesese because it reminds me of the first edition of samples where you had to stack all articulations on multiple slave drives/computers. Vienna Instruments and Ensemble took away a lot of this hussle, fortunately. Now it seems to come back . . . is it still work in progress, zooming towards the same workflow as the wonderful Dimension Brass Library? I really hope so.

Maybe I've missed something and the auto-div function is there where I overlooked it. I really really hope so. If so can you point me to it?

Thank you for making these wonderful products!

4.Download manager crashes very often 10/1/2017 6:37:43 PM

Hi Paul,

Downloadspeed etc. are not visible. My OS is stated as my signature. I just managed to download 2 libraries. Basses and Brass. [edit] and I get no crash reports too . . .

5.Download manager crashes very often 10/1/2017 5:29:51 PM

Hi,

 

The download manager crashes very often. Looks not normal. Is it because I download the samples to my external SSD drive?

6.VE Crashes on openeing with Sibelius 6/28/2017 9:22:32 PM

Today I ran into this new crash problem. When I opened up Sibelius, Vienna Ensemble crashes. Attached I have the crash log.

I also just updated the VE and VI Pro software. Problem is still there.

7.VE Crashes when changing plugin/Altiverb dry wet mix 3/6/2017 3:46:07 PM

Hi,

This happens to me a lot. When I want to change the dry/wet mix of Altiverb in Vienna Ensemble chances are very near that it crashes right afterwards.

Today it happened 2 times so I thought: maybe someone has a fix for this?

Attached to this post is the debug file in text format.

Thanks in advanced, Arnold

8.Rack Extension 2/10/2017 4:59:54 PM

2017, anything new on this subject? (probably not)

I would love to see  a VE virtual input on my Reason DAW one day. Is it costly to make this adjustment? (I am just wondering why it still isn't there, and what is the reason behind this)

9.from DVD to SSD mac 11/24/2016 2:09:48 PM

After 2 days of copying the files to the SSD the job has been done.

Status: mixed feelings, again . . .
Why?:

1. The performarce samples don't work properly with the version of G-Player I purchased.

2. The "normal" samples are beautiful, but they need to be re-organized in a way that they will work as needed. I know I am a bit spoiled with the Special Edition + software.

Now, I am willing to work things up to a level in order to get things behaving like it should/like I am used to. But before I do I want to ask if there are any tips/hints to do this in the most efficient way?

It will take time but I want to take the time as efficient as posible.

 

Thank you on beforehand!

10.from DVD to SSD mac 11/22/2016 3:54:18 PM

Hi Paul,

Some time ago I purchased G-Player in order to use some of the harp samples from the library.

On my wishlist there is still a dedicated player/converter from you guys in order to use the legacy collections in a more constructive way. I really hope that one day you are able to make something to tackle this.

In the meantime my laptop is extracting the samples from the .exe files by using Unarchiver. It was by coincidence that I stumbled upon that, but it seems to work.

I also fuond some information on how to load .gig files into Kontakt, but I haven't tried that yet. As soon as I know more I'll post it here.

 

Best, Arnold

11.from DVD to SSD mac 11/22/2016 12:07:51 PM

Hi,

 

Today I received a SSD drive for I wanted to put my entire VSL DVD's on it.

As I wanted to start the files on the DVD's turned out to be .exe files.

Is there an other way to enter these .exe files so that I can extract the samples to my new SSD drive?

Thanks in advanced,

Arnold

12.old libraries convertor 10/8/2016 11:37:30 AM

jeez, I didn't know that this discussion got that long of a tail... it still makes me wonder if the staff at VSL came up with the conversion solution for all my wonderful samples sitting there in a box...

13.Alter special edition + trumpet >>> mute 10/7/2016 3:09:51 PM

Hi,

Is it posible to alter the Trumpet C+ bank e.g. to enter the mute samples of the standard edition into this?

If so, is it posible to make it playback accordingly in Sibelius?

Thanks, Arnold

14.trumpet staccato and sustained 9/28/2016 11:21:41 AM

Thank you Andi, those little things . . . ;-)

15.trumpet staccato and sustained 9/27/2016 6:10:30 PM

Hi,

I was looking for this post for I have the same problem as in 2011...

To recreate the problem I will provide more information in the attachements.

I have 2 instances of VE running. One with special edition + samples and one regular for the percussion, harp etc.

Now I am making this orchestration where for instance the trumpets needs to play sforzandi. So I would expect to "just" place "sfz" under the notes in order to get the VI Pro trumpet strip to change from sus. to sforzando.

But it does not.

Sometimes updates will work, I've learned in the past. But I am still working on my good old mac and I actually had no problems, untill today. Maybe I overlooked something? Does anyone have a suggestion for me?

16.[Solved] DAE error #-7054 VnIn Pro vs Pro Tools 9 11/13/2013 9:47:21 AM

strangely it works as normal again . . .

17.[Solved] DAE error #-7054 VnIn Pro vs Pro Tools 9 10/6/2013 5:11:01 PM

Hi,

Last week I couldn't load any instruments so I decided to check for an updated version of VI Pro. There was an update, I installed it and it made it worse. I can't find the sollution but I only get this error message.

The plug-in could not be made active because a DAE error war encountered (error#-7054)

What should I do?

Thanks in advanced!

18.can I search through my posts? 6/25/2013 9:03:28 AM

Thanks Paul!

19.can I search through my posts? 6/24/2013 9:30:27 PM

As the title says: can I search through my own posts? I have a question, that I already asked, but I cannot find it easily...

20.[SOLVED] sudden problem 4/28/2013 5:20:27 PM

Thank you Andi,

It was something like you pointed out. In the Sibelius file I created a new instrument (a percussion staff) That caused the trouble. After mapping it properly the problem was solved.

21.[SOLVED] sudden problem 4/27/2013 9:25:16 PM

yesterday I started to arrange one of my latest work. All went well, until today after a few good run throughs suddenly the playback failed to switch from staccato to normal.

I don't know if this is a Sibelius (6) or a VI problem. Does anyone has an idea?

22.[SOLVED] instruments doesn't show up when double clicking on it in VE 12/19/2012 4:27:26 PM

Thank you Paul, that solved the problem!

23.[SOLVED] instruments doesn't show up when double clicking on it in VE 12/18/2012 11:09:58 PM

Oops... right in the middle of a deadline... the instruments doesn't show up when double clicking on it in VE! Can somebody help me/point me what to do?

24.No loop on Sustain Strings II 12/14/2012 1:53:35 PM

it's about the solo strings from the Special Edition Vol. 1 Strings PLUS. So as I read the post before you, it's not available? Can I tweak it somehow because the legato samples are really very short.

25.No loop on Sustain Strings II 12/13/2012 12:14:06 PM

I have this issue very often. (sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, strangely...) The issue of no loop on sus. strings. Probably this subject is tackled already, but I cannot find the answer. Can somebody point me to the right direction.
