Thanks. I figured that out! It's different from 6 so I wasn't sure what the issue was as 6 just connected to the server without having to pick!

I may not know what I'm doing wrong with VEP7. Runs perfectly as a standalone. Only problem as standalone is many VSTs are not recognized but are otherwise available in all my other hosts. Particularly important to me are Waves plugins.

When I run VEP7 as a VST, it just wants to connect to a server. I don't have a server, I'm on the host computer. I expect the VST to present the same way the standalone version does. The standalone starts right up and is not looking for a server.

Anybody have any idea about what to do with the picky VST recognition and the VST server behavior.

Version 6 was no problem as a VST but I am excited to use the new version features but the VST is not working as expected.

This is happening in Cantabile. I will test in Cakewalk.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Andi,

That put me on the right track (pun intended).

Have a great weekend,

Ron

Paul,

Thank you for your prompt response!

I've seen the videos and the templates.

1. What I'm looking for, I think is rather simple. How do I assign a stave(s) imported from a midi file to a particular midi channel for Synchron Player or any other VST.

2. The templates are very nice and I have no idea if it's possible to use them for a different score. If possible I'd like to know how.

The answer to number 1. is critical.

Thanks,

Ron

I ask for forgiveness in advance for creating a topic. I'm not sure if it's warranted but I cannot seem to find any information or guidance, just trial and error with much frustration.

I am new to VSL!

I have some MIDI files of some compositions I wrote many years ago. I would like to import them into Dorico. I can and that is no problem. The default VST is HalionSonic and that is nice but I want to use my Special Editions.

I've taken a look at some YouTube videos and was able to use the Synchron Player on the score instead of Halion Sonic.

I need to figure out which staff corresponds to the MIDI channel and how to assign that channel to the specific instance of the Synchron Player  with that instrument loaded from SE Volume 1.

I also want to set multiple outputs so I can control the routing of the MIDI through Dorico to SE Volume 1.

Thanks for any help you may have.

I can't seem to figure out how to show Smart Orchestra in Kontakt. Is that possible without a NI controller?
