1.Can't Drag Instruments around the stage in MIR via VEP 7 11/23/2020 12:39:36 AM

Reply from Andreas Rautner to my tech support ticket on this:
"We are aware of the problem you mentioned. That's caused by the fact that MIR Pro uses Open GL and this standard is no longer updated (since 2017). Since our developers are already working on the next evolution of MIR Pro, the workaround [app maximise button] is the only solution for now."

2.Can't Drag Instruments around the stage in MIR via VEP 7 10/11/2020 12:49:54 AM

Incredible! Thanks for the solution, but this seems to be a bug to me. The draggability ceased after I added a plugin instrument to the VE Pro mixer, and even after quitting and relaunching VE Pro, the issue was still there. Your maximise solution is a good workaround - thanks!

4.Hanging bug fixed, and faster load times evident 4/29/2019 2:09:06 AM

Just started climbing into this latest release, and all good so far on existing projects, and especially happy with the fact that a hanging bug that plagued my entire VEPro 6 experience has now gone.  Prior to this, I could not quit Cubase if there was even a single VEPro instantiation, and even if no sound libraries were loaded, and even if VEPro itself was not running.  Just selecting the plugin was enough to make Cubase unable to quit.  This requriement to Force Quit Cubase was never able to be resolved - until v.7

To my delight, this hanging behaviour has vanished, and I can now launch and quit Cubase 10.0.20 with VE Pro in any combination, with or without samples loaded..

I also notice the load time has improved.

More to follow.

5.arrow key doesn't bring up Master Bus 12/8/2014 1:31:03 AM

I attach screenshot showing that if the Master Bus is reached by use of the Up or Down arrow keys, the VI panel from the previous page shows (pictured in the 1st screenshot) instead of the Mixer (pictured in 2nd screenshot).

 

I can't see anywhere to attach images to this page, but there is an option "Attach files to this post?" at the foot of this window, so I will post and hope an option comes up to add files.  Aha! It did, and here I am back again ready to post.  Great job on rebuilding the site!

6.Any VSTs that can play .gig files? 12/5/2011 9:07:46 PM

MOTU MachFive will also play .gig files, and I believe Kontakt will too.

7.Giga on MOTU MachFive 9/21/2011 11:24:35 PM

I have no idea why I did not realise this a lot sooner, but if you have MOTU MachFive, it will play GigaStudio samples, and unlike G-Player, you will be able to have multiple MIDI banks.

It's not seamless, e.g. it won't load .gsp projects, but at least you'll get very good multi-instrument, multi-channel playback and you can manipulate the audio.

Derek Williams

8.Any VSTs that can play .gig files? 5/26/2011 9:50:35 PM

There is a 64 bit version of G-Player for both Windows and Mac (in beta):

http://www.soundlib.com/gplayer

Only problem I have with G-Player is it has only a single bank of 16 MIDI channels, whereas with GS4, I used to have 8x16.  I have found it is in practice possible to run several instances of G-Player at once, albeit with a little visible but generally inaudible digital noise, however this is not recommended by its developer, who stated last year that he was working on a multi bank version for release any time soon.

If there is a 64 bit multi bank version of SampleLord, I'd still be interested in a switch, because the G-Player guy looks like he has gone to sleep.

Derek Williams

9.Any VSTs that can play .gig files? 1/23/2011 4:20:01 PM

G-Player does work well, albeit with only one bank addressing 16 MIDI channels. The programmer/owner has stated last year that he would 'soon' be releasing a version with multi banks (8x16).  I have found that on Windows I am able to run multiple instances of the standalone G-Player, however he does not recommend this. There is visible (but not audible) digital bleed of transitory 'noise' when this is done, nevertheless I found I could run 8 instances with 16 MIDI channels each.

Still no sign of the multi-bank version, but at least one can play the sample libraries in the meantime.  Has anyone actually got GigaStudio 4 to work on Windows 7?

10.using VE PRO SERVER over a FIREWIRE NETWORK 8/29/2010 3:37:11 PM

This does work, but frankly not worth the bother.  I tried it out of curiosity, but there were issues with stability and recall of settings after reboot, also the machine would freeze if unplugged, so not hot pluggable.  Also unlike Ethernet, you could not share devices on the one port.  Given the amount of development that has gone on with VE Pro since then however, it may be worth another look.

Ethernet works so well, I would find it hard to see any justification for moving to FIrewire.

I raised a support ticket with Steinberg about this.  Their response.  "It should work, try reinstalling the elicenser software". Needless to say it doesn't work, and never will.  GigaStudio is deceased, and along with it, my patronage of any Tascam product in perpetuity.  There is available a reasonably priced independently developed substitute application called G-Player that will read and play back Giga samples but with severe limitations, chiefly that there is only one bank of 16 MIDI channels.  You can run multiple instances of the player, but noise print through occurs on the output channels of the A/D device.  The developers of G-Player have promised that a multi bank version will be up soon.

I just regret I didn't wait until G-Player from the get-go.  GigaStudio's idiosyncratic everything was the creativity killing low point in all experiences I ever had with music technology.  To be honest, it's hard to even find a use for all that stuff now that I have the full Vienna Symphonic Library and VE Pro/VI Pro.  It's mainly obstinacy that has kept me on this warpath, rather than the quest for any particularly useful artistic result.

update - G-Player seems to be a worthy replacement and works similarly enough - goodbye GigaStudio, and good riddance!

14.Gigastudio 4 doesn't recognize Dongle 6/9/2010 8:07:31 PM

I have just bought an i7 machine running WIndows 7, and the same issue is happening to me - did anyone ever get this to work on WIndows 7? I am also running the VSL VE PRO, so can't go to an old version of the elicenser software.

15.Using Performance Tool with 64 bit Vista 1/19/2010 5:53:50 PM

Hi David,

When I bought the now defunct Gigastudio 4, it had a 32 and a 64 bit version.  I was thinking of moving to 64 bit with Windows 7 and installing GS4 on that, however I note that you state that GS doesn't work in Vista 64.  Did you actually try it and find it didn't work, and if so have you since tried with Windows 7 in 64 bit mode?

16.can't scroll forum pages down in iPhone 1/1/2010 11:42:07 AM

This field is dead - it provides a space but it doesn't activate when I click on it or TAB to it so I was forced to put my mobile phone number into the Phone field.

17.can't scroll forum pages down in iPhone 1/1/2010 11:40:31 AM

Is this site monitored?  Haven't received a single acknowledgement of any posts, and the issues I reported are still there!

18.Can not delete VE Pro instance-even when disconnected 12/21/2009 5:17:41 PM

This is still happening for me with the very latest build 4780.  I am using Cubase and even though I have closed the referring project, with two others still open, VE PRO thinks the metaframe that I no longer require is still needed and won't let go.  This is quite a nuisance for me too, because it means I can't free up memory occupied by the redundant instance other than by either quitting Cubase and relaunching it or closing every project open within Cubase.

Have a look at the Patch Assign page - there are trombone glisses there, you can add to a matrix yourself.

20.best of the best weighted keyboard controller? 10/31/2009 5:58:04 PM

OK well I too have an old K250 whose weighted action I like but is very noisy and prone to sticking notes with some channels failing, and is way too large to take to gigs anymore.  Although I still have the K250 at home, for gigs I replaced it with a Roland RD-300SX 88-Weighted Key Digital Piano.  The action and sound of this beast suits me fine.  The keyboard is a litttle heavy to lug around, but works well.

Only other drawbacks I have discovered are that it doesn't remember settings like Local Control Off, or the Expression Pedal which revert to the defaults after you power the machine down and then back up.  The expression pedal setting is particularly irksome because it doesn't default to Volume controller 7 as one would of course expect, instead varying 'expression' - almost imperceptible on many of the built in sounds.  Also, the power supply is a non-standard Roland built device, so if you lose it, you're screwed and will need to wait for the factory part to be delivered (which they do fast, but at considerable cost).

This sort of thing has been typical of Roland for as long as I can remember - doing things their own sweet, non-standard way.  I don't know if you remember its 'all-notes-off' command that would be sent every time all the keys stopped being played, thus rendering it useless as a MIDI input device unless you do as a friend of mine once did, sticky-tape down the bottom key so as to never have 'all-notes-off'.

I realise the above comments don't sound like I am barracking for the instrument, and I don't know whether a firmware upgrade is around to fix up these minor annoyances, however in every other way I have found the keyboard to be great.

21.can't scroll forum pages down in iPhone 10/30/2009 7:15:52 PM

ALso if I click "Edit tags" in my posting, a tiny rectangular edit window appears about 25cm below the current window which is scrolled up and almost out of sight.  There are no instructions visible as to what one can or should type in that window.

22.can't scroll forum pages down in iPhone 10/30/2009 7:13:52 PM

Thanks - never knew about that feature.  Also, tried the three finger thing, hardly works at all for me except randomly, and hard to see the value of when one can use two fingers to prise or squeeze the image as desired.

Do you have a solution for the other problem I mentioned?  On an ordinary computer (not the iPhone) when I click the "Select Tags..." button below on this page, I find that if there are more tags than can fit on the page listing all the tags, one can't scroll down below the bottom one to see them.

I have drag-selected and then copied below the tags that I actually can see, but there are loads more below these, that are obscured by the bottom of the window.  I clicked the Desktop tag to activate one but the Save button is not visible so the tag cannot be activated:


Below is a list of tags that have been used before.

23.can't scroll forum pages down in iPhone 10/25/2009 4:48:58 PM

 see Subject - the scrollbars are not visible on Apple iPhone 3GS

secondly, in the Select Tags option on this posting form on any computer, there is no scroll option to see all the tags and if the window is resized to be larger, it cannot be closed without being dragged back from behind the title bar to this window.

24.select tags 9/22/2009 5:38:31 PM

On Mac OS 10.5.8 with Firefox 3, when I click the Select Tags... button below, it brings up a whole page of checkboxes for previously used tags, but there is no button to click to confirm the selection, and no scroll bar to go to the botom of the page.  Only a red cross to close the window with no selection having been made.  I made a screenshot of how it looks, but there is no way to attach to this posting.

25.Email button 9/22/2009 5:35:54 PM

In connection with the forum page for VE PRO, I have a quick comment regarding the "Email subscription enabled" button at for example http://community.vsl.co....22681/154206.aspx#154206

Currently, the button states "Email subscription enabled", which I find confusing, because when I click on a button, I would normally expect it to complete the task reflected in the button's name.  The button currently says "Email subscription enabled", but I don't think it can be because I am not getting any emails from the forum when postings are made.

May I suggest that this button be renamed to toggle between:
"Enable email subscription" and "Disable email subscription"?

This then shows clearly what will happen.  If the button states "Enable email subscription", then it is clear that email subscription is not currently enabled, but will become enabled if the button is clicked, and vice versa.
