Hi

Is there such an exp map available? (or do I have to make my own).

Thanks, CD

Hi

The latest version of VEP (7.2 1516 27 Feb 2023) crashes when opening. When I restart it after the crash it works ok. I'm using a 2019 iMac with latest OS

Thanks, CD

Hello

I have installed the latest versions of VE Pro and the Kontakt player. When I try to open a Sonokintic plugin (Sleigh Bells) in the Kontakt player I get a message telling me the version of Kontakt I'm using is too old for the plugin.

It works ok in Kontakt standalone player but not as a plugin in the VEPro - host or standalone version, so I'm assuming it's a VE Pro issue?

Thanks, CD

Hello

Are the solo trumpets in Synchron brass in Bb or C? Similarly, are the section trumpets in Bb or C?

This question was raised previously but I couldn't see an answer. 

Thanks, CD

Hello

I was looking for a trills patch on the flutes ensemble but discovered there isn't one. In spite of this I'm still able to play trills only not in the way I expected. I'm using the VSL SY Woodwind Ensembles exp map with Orion in Dorico 4 Pro and when I indicate a trill in the score it plays it ok but in the synchron player it is indicated as a long sustain.

I'm curious as to why this is happening. Thanks, CD

Hello

Just purchased BBO Orion. My setup is VE Pro, MIR 3D 24 and Dorico 4 Pro. I use the supplied VSL SY Ensembles ex map. I'm having a peculiar issue with the bassoons - every note gets doubled with C2 except where the note is indicated as staccato which triggers short notes.  None of the other ensembles are similarly affected so I'm guessing it's not a Dorico issue. 

How can I fix this?

Thanks, CD

Hello

I have the Synchron-ized woodwinds ensemble and am considering buying the Orion sections. Is the synchronized ensemble I already have the same as that in Orion?

Thanks, CD

Hello

I've upgraded my MP 24 to 24 3D and got my free roompack (Sage Gateshead - which is more than I got when I bought MP 24 last year!). I still have my non-3D Vienna Hall roompack and was wondering if there is a crossgrade option to the 3D version? If I had a choice I would prefer the Pernegg space since I have Sage Gateshead.

I notice the huge difference between the old and new MIRs - well worth the 75 bucks crossgrade price.

Thanks, ColinD

Hello

How can I get portamento on the synchronised solo strings solo viola? Im using the synchron player with patches selected from the patch list only. I'm using my own expression map in Dorico to get the patches playing using key switches.

So far portamento works ok on the solo violin 1 over an interval of a maj 2nd using the performance legato although I have not indicated "portamento" in the score or in my custom expression map - it just seems to do it on its own which I like and have tried to repeat it with the solo viola but without success.

There looks to be a portamento patch in the short dynamic layer tab but I'm not sure how to use it - I can't just drop it into. a slot on the synchron player.

Thanks, Colin D

Hello

The iLock version of VEP (since yesterday) is continually crashing and is pretty much unusable. The non-iLock version seems to work fine.

The problem seems to be related to the Master Bus Channel after either a Synchron/Synchron Piano player has been loaded. In this case VEP crashes as soon as I click on the Master Bus channel.

If I delete the master bus channel before loading a synchron player it seems to work ok.

I'm running the latest VEP 7 on a 2019 iMac with 32GB ram and OS Monterey - the problem started when I was running Catalina but I've updated to Montery and the problem still persists.

Over the past couple of days there have been a few autommatic updates to the players from Vienna Assistant.

I've tried reinstalling/rebooting VEP & Synchron players after the crashes but doesn't seem to help.

Solution? - thanks, Colin

Hello

I had a lookat the Yamaha & Steinway on the website and there is a link to download full vs standard comparison example audio files. But the link is broken - I tried it with both Chrome & Safari. Are the files available elsewhere?

Thanks, ColinD

Hi

I can't log in to my iLok account via iLok licence manager - error message says shut down due to scheduled maintenece. Surely being locked out like this should never happen? - ColinD 

Hi

I'm using a 2019 iMac with 32 GB memory & 1TB hard disc & a Samsung 500GB T5 for samples.

I've tried four times to install the Konzerthaus roompack but itfails each time. VA either crashes or seems to install properly but VEPro gives an error message that Default,vmi is missing. 

I've tried install the room pack in both the default location  - library/application support/vsl/ vienna mir pro - and in my application folder, but i don't see a file called Default.vmi anywhere.

What's the solution? Thanks, ColinD

Hi

All my liceneces have now been transfered to iLOK. I'm downloading SSPro using the Vienna Assistant. Do I now need to re-download all of my libraries in order to use them with the iLOK system.

Thanks, ColinD

Hi

Do I just add this as a plugin in VEP? - I don't see a separate icon specifcally for the harp player.

Thanks, ColinD

Hi.

I think I will go for the Synch Strings Pro - I've still got couple of vouchers left from the Xmas sale. At the moment I'm checking out the Synchron harp (you can get a 30 day demo licence) - really, really impressive.

Colin

Hi

I've been listening to and reading reviews of Synchron strings pro - very impressive, the "new king of strings". Will SSPro sit well with the woods and brass in SE1 plus, or will it overpower them in terms of its class? I'm guessing that if I were to buy Synch Strings pro I'd be committed to getting the brass, woods, and percussion if I wanted to have a balanced full orchestra?

Thanks, ColinD

Just realised the Steinberg sets C3 as middle C so at least I've solved that problem. Sofar as I can tell, there's no way of changing this in Cubase. Maybve in an expression map? Thanks.

Hi All

I've been using Dorico & VE Pro for my Solo Strings projects but have decided to use Cubase 11 Pro coz I read somewhere on this forum that you get better results using a DAW like cubase rather than a notation program (I've owned Cubase since ver 7 but rarely use it).

My setup is to use VE Pro for my SS library. I'm trying to use keyswitches in Cubase but can't seem to get them to work. I had assumed I would just add the appropriate notes in the key editor in cubase and take it from there. I put in C1, F#1 and C2 to get Single Notes, Long Notes and Sustain in the Synchron player but nothing happens. I can't even see the keys in the Synchron player responding to the notes - it's as if it doesn't recognise them.

Am I missing something obvious? Thanks for any help, Colin D.

Hi

I'm looking for a piano. I have MIR Pro 24 and Roompack 1 and intend to purchase either the Bosendorfer Imperial or Steinway D-274. Is it possible to get a demo licence. Also, is it possible to say what would be the best roompack for these pianos?

Thanks, Colin D

Hi

Thanks. A question for you. Is there any benefit of using the Synchron Sound stage roompack for mir pro if I'm using the SE Vol 1 Plus & Synch solo strings. I saw a demo of someone using it with SE Vol 1 and BBO.

Thanks CD

Hi

I've just purchased 3 * €100 vouchers to redeem against MIR Pro 24 + Roompack but the payment screen will only allow mw to use 2 of the vouchers. This is tha last day of the promo sale - how can I sort this so as I can use three of them?

Thanks, ColinD

Hi

In the He Man walkthrough for Synch SS on YouTube by Carl King he said to switch of reverb and remove any other impulse from the samples in the Synch Player when using. Mir Pro - do you still have to do this?

Is there a new mixer preset that needs to be selected when using MIR pro?

Thanks, ColinD

The whole Synchron Player mixer is reset for this purpose, so that you're ready to apply the MIR magic to dry samples. 

What is reset?

• EQ
• Impulse Response
• Algo Reverb
• Panorama
• Volume

Hi Deitz

Mostly classical orchestral with Synch SE1 Plus and quartets with Synch solo strings

Hi

Is it possible to recommend a "best" roompack to learn MIR Pro with - mostly for Synch SE1 Plus and Synch Solo String?

Thanks, ColinD
