1.[SOLVED] I can't connect to the VEPro Server 3/15/2023 12:20:09 PM

Hallo,

I have this very annoying problem for some time now. Some times it's ok than the next time there's nothing as you wrote. Best is to contact VSL by their support channel. But in the mean time there's a very simple solution. At the line Server type: 127.0.0.1 at the line Instance type a name you want to call your instance. Connect and voila! there's your new instance. Works for me all the time. Happy composing!

2.Minimum Pedal Lift Time for Sustain Pedal 2/5/2023 10:20:12 PM

Hi Pyre,

Do I get it right by thinking your main complain is actually: The sustain pedal is either on or off. What causes the chords to "overlap" creating the blur or a gap between them. I'm not sure but I think the only way to avoid this is by getting a so called continues pedal which allows you to perform "Half pedaling". I got a Studio Logic pedal unit with three pedals. Soft, sostenuto and sustain with the half pedal function. And it's this half pedal possibility that will solve your problem. Be sure your Keyboard has the half pedal feature. I cant imaging playing the piano (plugin) without this pedal anymore. Feels like a real piano. They're not cheap. You could  get the two pedal version. As long as its got the half pedaling feature you're good.

3.Synchron Player presets disappeared! Need some essential info please 1/30/2023 11:11:46 AM

Hi Harmonia, 

Do I get it right you were still using the old e-Licenser key? I strongly suggest to get the iLok key and put all your licenses on this key. Take your licenses of the cloud! What I do is: when I start a session I switch internet on and check for updates of all my software. Then I turn the internet of. There's no need for the internet since I've got all my software on the iLok key. Never trust the internet and in particular the cloud. Remember the cloud is just someone else's computer! Good Luck.

4.All Instruments (except free) are gone. 1/24/2023 9:36:27 PM

I cant stress the use of an iLok Key! It only uses one USB port. What if uncle Vladimir decides to sabotage the cloud or worse. Get an iLok Key and forget the cloud. Remember somebody said: The cloud is just somebody else's computer! Good luck.

5.Fazioli F308 1/9/2023 9:32:48 PM

Hi C.B.,

I've had the "old" Vienna Imperial but traded that one for the Fazioli F308. Big mistake in my opinion. I should have kept the Vienna Imperial but being a retired musician with virtue no pension, money is pretty tight. I cant keep all those lovely VSL Libraries. The Vienna Imperial is maybe (still) the best of the lot. Sympathetic resonance of world class and separate samples for the soft pedal. So I traded the Vienna Imperial for the Fazioli but as I described before I could'nt get along with that instrument. After a thorough research I could swap the F308 for the Bosendorfer 280 VC. I was in heaven! Together with the Yamaha CFX, whom I truly love, and I should not forget the C.Bechstein Digital Grand I think I've got just the right combination of grand pianos I'd say. I leave the Bluthner 1895 out. I dont consider that piano a serious contender. My Midi keyboard is a Studiologic SL88 Studio Grand. Not the very best but it does the job quit well I think. I did play the Pianoteq 8 once in a studio. I remember the playability was great indeed but the instrument itself was not my favorite I'm afraid to say. But as you state yourself: This is all subjective. If you ever have the change to try out the C.Bechstein Digital Grand please do, cause I can certainly recommend this underrated library! So these are my thoughts on all those great vst libraries out there. Have a good time playing them.

Best regards:

Willem     

6.Fazioli F308 1/7/2023 10:04:29 PM

Hallo David,

I really really tried to get the right feel of the Fazioli. Its so personally and difficult to explain. I own the Yamaha CFX and already straight out of the box I was comfortable with that instrument. A few minor adjustments and I could play the piano for hours. Same or rather even more goes for the Bosendorfer 280 VC witch I traded for the F308. I found a great velocity curve from David Bello witch I thankfully adopted. It was a specific velocity curve for the 280 VC. I'm totally in love with the Bosendorfer. Playing the F308 for 30 minutes left me completely exhausted! No matter how hard I tried I could'nt get the punch/oemph nor that subtle, delicate sound out of the Fazioli. Also the lack of tonal differences with should come with different velocities really frustrated me. Either played loud or soft, the sound changes way too few to my taste. You can think of the F308 as the best balanced piano, tonal/intonation wise. I'd say the Fazioli is a little dull within the dynamics. Although the Fazioli's actual tone is very well captured. So there you have it. My very personal opinion of the Fazioli F308. As always it boils down to a persons taste. You can't argue that. I'm glad you like the F308 and I find your half Fazioli half Bosendorfer solution truly ingenious!

7.MIR Pro 3D: Locking instruments & another ideas 1/4/2023 1:41:21 PM

Hi Pixelpoet1985,

When I want to move an instrument close to the microphones I temporary place the Microphone in an other place. Like change from conductor to third row or balcony. Chang the instrument position and place the microphone back. Works for me.

8.Fazioli F308 12/21/2022 11:54:34 AM

Hi all,

Well after a week of editing and trying out other users presets and a build-up of frustrations I traded my Fazioli F308 standard library for the Bosendorfer 280 VC. Much to my relief and satisfaction. I own the Bluthner 1895. Nice but rather limited in usage and the incredible Yamaha CFX! And now the Bosendorfer 280 VC. I really hope that other Fazioli users who are not 100% happy at the moment will get a sufficient update. I really hope so. I don't have the patience for it. And I should'nt forget to compliment VSL on their Refund policy. Very flexible and straight forward. Have a happy Xmas and New Year you all.

Best,

Willem

10.Synchron Pianos User Patches 12/14/2022 1:11:23 AM

Hi,

Fazioli presets. On special request by Mike. I'm not sure about this library. The basic sound is beautiful. But as mentioned here before there's absolutely no Punch. The Oemph is not there. I've been tinkering with the settings as Mike has put it. But I'm by no means an expert. I tried to find and release the beast. But doubt if its there at all. Never the less I included two preset patches. See if it helps.

Best,

Willem

Hi Paul,

At first there was VEP 7 that needed all your attention. Now with Mir Pro 3D ready and rocking please fulfill your promise on the Sympathetic resonance and Silent Key request. It has been hanging around for such a long time. Come on guys! Enjoy your well earned holidays and when you're fully re-charged make us happy!

Regards,

Willem
