I tried that and nothing happens?

Me too!

I notice the background grid of my MIR is diagonal, which I find somewhat irritating. I how do I set it back to horizontal?   

How does it happen - did I change it accidentally ? If so, I can't find a way to set it back?

I see there is currently a very generous discount on Dorico at the moment,  and I am tempted.

But does it work with VI and Special edition instruments - I do not have the synchron player or the associated libraries?

Can I use the latest Dorico 4 with VI series instruments, or does it only work with Synchron?

Same here. Just hitting the play button in DP 11 is enough to crash VEP7.

Is VEPro7 Silicon compatible?

Is MIR PRO Silicon compatible?

These are the msgs I get every time, eLicenser hangs and I have to force quit

I don't know what it is, or what it does, but it opens itself every time I try to open a new project in my DP 11.

HOW DO I SWITCH IT OFF?

What is the precise difference?

If I already have standard and extended, does full provide even more articulations, or would I be duplicating?

Are Vienna Instruments and VEPro7 Big Sur Compatible?

Can there be a compatibility latest news page somewhere?

has become totally unstable and almost unusable, everything worked fine until not very long ago.

Interesting,  in that I too am a DP user, 9.5.2, on a 6-core Mac, I did wonder if getting a 12-core would help, but it seems not?

I wonder if these crashes are peculiar to DP?

The instability is so bad, I can't go more than about twenty minutes without a freeze, ALWAYS when doing something in VI hosting track containing a Kontakt VI.

I have just been trying to work with an Orange Tree Evo guitar hosted by Kontakt, and it just freezes at the smallest thing, like changing the MIDI channel no,  or going through the various patches in the VI itself. The freeze is so severe that I am denied access to ForceQuit,  the MOTU DP I am also using is also frozen out, and so I have to power off just to restart,  and start again from scratch.  I now spend more time doing this than music.

I am so disappointed.

Sometimes it also crashes immediately when adding/replacing a random Kontakt instrument patch.

The problem is just that there are no distinct ways to reproduce this. It just seems that there is a general instability to VE Pro that is new. Unless someone has an idea lightbulb coming on all I can say/ask is: Please turn your future efforts back to stability. VE Pro used to be one of the more stable components in whole music setup, now it is a fun-killer.

I have this all the time as well. I never have a session without several crashes, and sometimes have to shut down EVERYTHING, re-start won't suffice, and then start all over again. Almost always the crash is around do something in a Kontakt-hosted VI. I spend more and more time as a slave beta-tester than a composer...

I have had this as well. Clearly the instantiation of Kontakt is very flimsy?

MacPro5,1 12Cores 3.3Ghz/Mojave/96Gb Ram/DP11.03/VEP7 7.0.1120-MAS version/MetricHalo LIO-8

I experience this a lot as well.  Frequent crashes around doing even simple changes in a Kontakt hosted VI.

I would like this too!

Why not?

(Common UX behavior on both Mac and PC is for it to open the document that was double-clicked.)

Same thing happens with me. Mac 10.14.6, started happening with 1120.  I am now unable to open any project files at all, and am waiting for a solution from tech support, having submitted loads of crash reports.

I Too have this happen.

The tell-tale grey mid-top msg box that does not clear.

Consider a typical orchestral template in VEPro7 – four instances, winds, brass, percussion, strings, all driven by MIDI from my DAW, all loaded with VSL instruments, and each having its own master output.

If I want to send them all to the same reverb plugin, is there any way I can send the audio from the different instruments to the reverb plug in, so that all the orchestral instruments are in the same reverb ‘place’?

Or Could I for example, create a 5^th instance, call it reverb, and send all my instrument sounds to it?

Yes I know I could probably do this with MIR, but I can’t afford it at the moment.

The VSL video says

“Using the audio outputs of Vienna Ensemble Pro, you can route an audio signal internally. For example to certain buses or back to your sequencer. Again, each sequencer is different in this regard and you will find more information in your Vienna Ensemble Pro manual.

You can also process audio signals from your sequencer. Insert an audio input plugin in the audio track of your sequencer and assign this plugin to the already established Vienna Ensemble Pro connection.”

In the context of MOTU DP, an audio input plugin is presumably an aux bus or an audio track, as they are the only audio carriers? But there is no explanation in the manual of how to connect them, only about how to connect instruments?

I am currently setting up a template in VEPro7 for use with MOTU Digital Performer 9.52 on a Mac 5,1 OS 10.13.6, cpu: 3.46 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon, Ram: 32 GB 1333 MHz DDR3.

I have figured out how to set up the MIDI, host the VIs and get the signal back out to DP, all well and good.

Now what I want to do is set up an instance to host my effects, especially power-hungry Aether reverb, but I can’t seem to figure out how to get audio into VEPro7 and back out again – I haven’t found any VSL documentation or videos.

Specifically, what is the difference between a bus and an input channel in VEPro7 ?

Currently I do orchestral reverb all in DP using Aether, which crucially allows the early reflections ER to be separated from the late reflections LR. Thus I use five instances of Aether – 4 set up as ER labelled front, front middle, back middle, back, each with a different pre-delay value, each of which sends its output to the fifth instance set up as LR.

But this really hogs most of my CPU capacity as shown by the DP meter. Would this be possible in VEPro7 ? 

I am setting up VEPro7 for the first time with DP 9.52 on my mac.

I set up the first instance, called Bass, put in four bass libraries, connected them to the VE Pro MAS instance in DP, connected the outputs in the Bass instance in the Server to the aux channels in DP, and success! Upon testing I got the right sounds in the right place coming out in my DP.

Then I switched off and shut down.

Later I tried to set up a second instance in my server, AcGtrs, but when I went into my DP to allocate the VEPro MAS instance, In the DP invitation to connect window, no server instances are shown?

I checked on the first Bass instance, and the connection was all as it should be?

So what have I missed in connecting my second instance?

Are there any manuals or instruction videos about VE 6.5?

I use five instances of VE 6.5, Winds, Brass, Percussion, Keys, Strings. I need to know how to control the windows - sometimes they are tabbed, sometimes they are not, I don't know how or why, and I want to know how to put them together sometimes in a single mixer, like as shown in the picture on the product page?

Like Dewdman42 wrote above, MIR Pro is first and foremost a plug-in that comes in the three most popular formats, namely VST, AU and AAX:

As a matter of fact, it can also be used as an integral part of Vienna Ensemble, which is especially enticing in case of Vienna Instruments as this host allows for tight integration of all components. VE is not required, though. 

... might be worth a second thought ...? ;-)

I take your point, but given that I would also have to buy the room packs as well, it gets close to 1,000 Euros, which I just don't have.  On your product page there is no list of what comes with the package, and what has to be purchased additionally.

I could not find any demonstration or explanation of how it would work with VE?
