What about the support for WaveShell in VE Pro 4?

1. IMHO there are two different answers, depending what is the reason of your "popping noises".

a) put samples on the external drive only when you have them on the same drive as your DAW/system/other samples directory. In my experience putting something on external drive gives no adventage over the internal connection. CPU still operate on the same machine

b) using VEPro you get ANOTHER machine with another CPU/memory/drives to use. A lot better to operate stream samples, worse not to have mobile machine (however I imagine it is still better to have two powerful laptop machines connected via VEPro than one with external drive via firewire - but this is only the supposition).

Easly :-). Now I have 1Gb cards, previously I had 100mb and it had worked fine. However I feel, that this 1Gb is not use its full transfer, as it should be.

I've founde the same increase on "pops and clicks" istalling the latest (4.1.7644) update (on both machines). I also have 1gb straight connection, both PC.

In my network connection - 1GB both cards - with external SLAVE comp, I hardly ever have traffic over 10-15%. And that seems to be a problem. How to make this connection more "open".

It should and it will. Even if specification tells you that it's necessary to have 1gb network it works perfectly fine with 100mb ones. The traffic coorditation mosty depends of the network card and how do you set the settings.

Hello,

This is the warning!
I've just downloaded and installed the new VE Pro patch 4.1.7644. on both master and slave machine (32bit WinXp master, 64bit W7 slave configuration). Result...instant clicks and pops during DAW playback expressed by what I hear and ASIO meter (however the slave machine is about 30-40% CPU usage).
Coming back to previous version (4.1.7553)=no problem. "better is the enemy of the good" :-).
I write this, because some of you have similar problem.
Other thing is, why it can not be checked by the VSL team, and we have to spend half a day wondering "what's going on". And this is not the first time.
I am just the user/musician. Not the programmer/electrician/studio gear specialist etc. I am not complaining, I am just asking...
:-(

Hi DG,
Even if I wasn't the person who stated the question, thanks for help! I was looking how to route this other Net buses all day long :-)

For me this dry space of VSL is a big advantage. Nor many others strings libraries on the market, it allows you to create your own evironment on the base of the best music sound. It takes time, it needs attention, but who said the composing is easy task :-). That way, our "VSL soundtracks" sound a bit different.
I understand that recording ex. the violin in dry space is not the "real" environment for any acoustic instrument, but using samples is always the manner of compromise. Let's give aour faith to VSL engineers.

You don't need nothing more than motherboard (with LAN controler), cpu, memory, case, hard disk and...graphic card!, even if you do not plan to use the monitor. Without graphic card common Windows OS's will not boot. Remote Desktop is very useful and I don't see the circumstances - after you made the proper configuration - to use the external monitor, keyboard etc.

Exactly! You use it as the another "streaming data machine". You must remember to have fairy fast LAN connection (1GB or above). Don't worry about SLAVE power configuration. It has no connection to your MASTER system power.
Nowdays, it's not bad idea to buy as much as you can memory sticks, buy 64 bit OS and use it as a sampler ( to carry f. ex. the 1GB samples! in spectrasonics products).

At the requirements site for VEPro there is no indication about it: "PC Intel/AMD with Windows XP 32 bit..." Is it the reason that eLicenser does not work as well?

I use AMD Barton CPU, and there is no warnings in event logs - nor application nor system ones, after executing the application. I have a feeling that something could be wrong with license confirmation - the system closes the application just after veryfiing it on the vienna key, HOWEVER using the same key in the master computer provides to right results. Everything works fine. BTW what USB driver should be used with Vienna Key?

Hi Cristian,
It looks that Vienna Key works fine (when I unpluged it, VEPro "shouts" there is no license) but IF I start mentioned two applications on main computer, it looks as on your screen, IF I start the same apps on remote machine, VEPro starts, looking the license and content files, SYNSOPOS.exe and vsldaemon.exe are present in task manager AND Vienna Ensemble Pro.exe as well...for a moment - next it disappears.
The same with eLCC.exe. It starts and disappears for a moment in task manager.

Hello,
I have problem with virtual control of second (slave) computer with Vienna Ensemble Pro instaled. I use Remote Desktop of WinXP, and have no problem to execute and control any other music apps despite eLicenser (newest version, and working license on the attached Vienna Key) and VEPro (epic library installed). The application starts, and after checking the license there is no other reaction ( however the task is present in task menager of remote computer). The same is with eLicenser. No response after start. Any cues to solve the problem?

Pablo

The license download wa successful, however it works only with Vienna Key. I am not able to transfer this only license to my Steinberg Key (via eLicenser Control Center). Restart doesn't help.

Hi Everyone,
Short question. Does anyone had a problem trying to download the license for Epic Orchestra the with new version of eLicenser with Steinberg Key? My eLicenser Concrtol Center (6.0.2.7010) is saying, I have no appriopraite USB eLicenser, even if it works in the same computer and configuration with Vienna Key.
