So, if I purchase the MIR Pro Room bundle of the Synchron Stage, the MIRx mode is for MIR Pro only and will not work within Vienna Instruments Pro (under reverb)?

And one other thing:

My external SSD drive is accessible by VI Pro 2 and all cells load properly.

However, My external SSD drive is not accessible (the SSD drive appears but no + (plus) sign to open it.

This happens if I had an instance of NI Kontakt 6 and try to locate samples on the SSD drive.

However, a single stand-alone instance of NI Kontakt 6 has no issue searching my external SSD drive.

So, VE Pro 7 is not providing full access to my external SSD drive.

Cheers

Leif

 

To simplify my issue:

I can access all my sample libraries in a stand-alone instance of Vienna Instruments Pro 2.

However, all my samples are red (not available within the matrix cell) if I open an instance of Vienna Instruments Pro within Vienna EnsemblePro 7.

I have redone Directory manager.

Is there another setting I need to change in VE Pro 7?

Cheers

Leif

 

I contacted SSL about using the UF8 to control VE Pro and they said not at the moment but they are working on the feature! This will be so Cool.

Thanks all.

Leif

 

Hi,

My libraries are not available if I use VE Pro 7 (the cells are all red). However, they are all available if I open one instance of VI Pro 2!

I have successfully added and rescanned all libraries but no difference using VE Pro 7.

I am on iMac 5k with Catalina.

Hope there is a solution. Please see attachments.

Cheers

Leif

 

Hi,

I would like to know if I can use Solid State Logic's new UF8 Controller (or four chained together) to control Vienna Ensemble Pro 7?

See here: https://www.solidstatelogic.com/products/uf8

I would be using the UF8 either through Pro Tools or Sibelius using VE Pro as a plugin.

Cheers

Leif

 

Thanks Jhonny,

I want to run VE Pro in standalone mode with midi input from Sibelius so I can use the surround out from VE Pro. Just looking for a solution for hands on control of VE Pro other than the current apps available through VSL.

Cheers

Leif

 

Can the Icon Qcon or Platform X+ also control VE Pro faders? I basically want to use the control surface to control the VE Pro mixer (faders, fx, etc.).

Leif

 

Greetings,

I am interested in purchasing Synchron Strings 1.

I have many full VI libraries, MIR24, VE7 etc. and would like to know if the MIR RoomPack 6 (Sychron Stage) is capable of successfully blending my VI libraries with Synchron Strings 

Cheers, Leif

 

 

 

 

Hi,

Will the Icon Qcon X controller work with VE Pro 7 (Via Sibelius 2019 OR Stand Alone - on iMac 5k)?

See https://iconproaudio.com/product/qcon-pro-x/

Hi all,

I would like to know what techniques are used to process the various VSL Violin sections so they work very well for both 1st and 2nd Violins. What's is the best way to avoid phasing etc. if I use say, Chamber Vls for both the 1st and 2nd violin sections?

Cheers

Leif

 

Many thanks Dietz,

I bought a Genelec surround system:

3 x 8250, 2 x 8330 and 1 x 7271 sub (All connected to MacBook Pro via AES).

I want to expand my downloaded hi-res stereo files to 5.1 (7.1 in future) and will try MIR Pro first and save for Vienna Suite Pro.

Thanks for your feedback.

Cheers, Leif

 

Hi all,

I use an audio programe called Audirvane Plus (on MacBook Pro) to stream and play high quality music files. Audirvane can host multi-channel AU plugins.

I would like to use MIR/Vienna Suite Pro to add centre, rear and side speaker output based on appropriate VSL hall impulse responces. However, I would like to keep the original stereo audio (Front L & R main speakers) as original and clean as possible.

What would be the best way (which VSL software) to do this? 

Cheers

Leif

 

Hi all,

I want to use the Synchron Strings FX 1 in Sibelius blended with my VSL Library (most of them but no Synchron). II would like to blend them with MirX (Vienna Konzert Hall etc.). Will this be satisfactory?

Is there a link where I can here the close mic sound from the FX library?

Also, Can the 6 sections (3 high, 3 low) be separated so I can can write each line from Sibelius?

Cheers

Leif

 

Hi all,

I would like to know if I can open a VE Pro 6 preset (say my own Violins 1) from Sibelius (2018.11)

Currently, I need to open a preset (instrument) in VE and allocate a channel etc. to communicate with Sibelius. No issue opening the score again and everything is sweet. However, I would like to create a staff in Sibelius, say Clarinet in Bb, and Sibelius automatically tell VE to open my Clarinet preset and allocate correct channel. Therefore, creating instruments in a score will act the same way as if creating instruments with Sibelius Sounds, without having to set-up everything in VE first.

More simply, what is the MIDI command to open a VE instrument preset and allocate a channel from a sequencer?

Cheers all,

Leif

 

Hi,

I would like to setup the following string section scenario hosted by VE Pro 5/6:

VSL Orchestral Strings (main library)

VSL Chamber Strings (Used for divisi sections)

OT Berlin Strings SFX (Vln 1, Vln 2, Vla, Celli, bass) - uses KONTAKT 6 (full version)

Can I put all 1st Violins on channel 1 (all Vln 2 on channel 2 etc.) and switch between Orch Strings, Chamber strings, and Berlin SFX?

or do I need to put Orch Strings on channels 1-5, Chamber strings on channels 6-10, and Berlin sfx on channels 11-15?

My sequencer is Sibelius 2018 ultimate and I would be grateful to know the best way to set this up.

None of the above libraries will be required to sound together. However, in the future I would like to blend VSL solo strings with orch strings as section leaders and soloists.

Cheers

Leif

 

Hi all,

I currently use Sibelius 8, VEPro 5, VIPro 2 and most of the VSL full libraries. 

I understand using sequencers such as Cubase, Logic, Pro Tools, DP etc. have much better (understatement) and efficient ways to work with MIDI data compared to Sibelius.

However, what exactly can the above listed sequencers do concerning MIDI editing that Sibelius CANNOT do (no matter how cumbersome it may be in Sibelius) - baring in mind I only use VSL libraries with VIPro and all its wonderful humanization features. I also make my own natural tempo maps in Sibelius and often use the 'live' settings (dynamics/timings). I also enter midi controllerdata  using 'overdub' in Sibelius for each instrument.

Regards to all and look forward to your direction.

Leif

 

Hi all,

I use Sibelius with Vienna Ensemble/MIR connect as Plugin. Sibelius only has steareo output.

It there a way I can access audio directly from VE to mix in surround sound? Or is my only option to connect Sibelius to VE via MIDI?

Kind regards

Leif

I would like to use Vienna Ensemble Pro Surround ability to mix my orchestra in 5.1. I use Sibelius 7.5 which only has stereo output.
What is the best way to get 5.1 using Sibelius? Will VE Pro have to be set up as stand alone?

Cheers
Leif.

I would like to know how many more cpu resources are required to run 16 separate VI plugins alone compared to running 16 VI plugins 'within' VE Pro 5.

I use Sibelius and MirX. However, I need to open many VE instances due to rhe various Sibelius Instrument Definitions for each group of instruments, or for each instance of VE.

I am just keen to know the pitfalls of running 16 separate instances of VI as AU within Sibelius instead of running a few instances of VE to host my 16 VI.

Many thanks in advance
Leif

Thanks Cyril.

How about the analog headphone out, will this be satisfactory on the go or cause big issues with latency?

Cheers
Leif

Is the internal audio card of the latest mac pro ok to use for listening to vsl sample playback.
Does VE Pro 5 require a much better sound device to render maximum playback instruments?
Cheers
Leif


Want to use a Mac Pro with VE Pro 5 (and vsl samples via VI Pro 2) with Sibelius 7.5.

Many thanks
Leif

I have many DVD (extended) collections which I purchased years ago for my PC set-up. I am going to change to Mac now and get the new iMac 5k and use with an external Lacie 1tb Thunderbolt 2 ssd drive.

I remember updating many of my samples over the years and want to know if I load a dvd collection on my new Mac from the original dvd, will I have to go back in time and load all the sample updates or will the latest update cover them all?

Cheers

Leif

I would love to know when somebody drives VSL with the new iMac 5k:

4GhZ quad core i7

32 GB ram

256 GB sSd flash system drive

1TB Lacie Thunderbolt 2 SSD (fastest available) external drive

I wonder what VSL power this sysyem will have - drive a full chamber orchestra with MIR?

Cheers

Leiif

I would like feedback on running VSL Full library/SE on a fully loaded MacBook Pro (latest model 15" 16 gigs ram) simultaneously with Sibelius 7.5.

I have both full dvd collection and SE Plus. I have Vienna Ensemble  Pro 5 and Vienna Instruments Pro 2

Will the internal fash drive be fast enough for sample streaming (and running all software) or will an external sample drive be required.

Any feedback on possible instances using MIRx (I also have MIR 24) would be rateful.

Cheers

Leif
