1.lists of available articulations working with dorico expression maps 11/28/2022 10:36:50 AM

Thanks for the responses !

I'll have to run more tests I presume, and fill in here and there.

(Now I am working on making dynamics work, it is not easy getting into the combination VSL and DORICO after having been away for almost 2 years),

regards,

Gerard

2.lists of available articulations working with dorico expression maps 11/24/2022 9:31:53 AM

Hello Andi,

Thanks for the reply. I am struggling to get many of the articulations given in the expression maps and in the Dorico window to work: For example legato in the VSL SYzd Solostrings violin 1 and viola specified by keyswitches A-1, D0, C1 in the expression map, and in the Synchron player 01a Violin basic VelXF sus (as in other presets) as D (1), C(2) (Steinberg / VSLnumbering matter).

Inserting legato in the Write window does not invoke legato however, invokes nothing.

I cannot find the cause nof this.

regards,

Gerard

3.lists of available articulations working with dorico expression maps 11/22/2022 7:41:35 PM

Hello,

Are there somewhere, unfindable for me, lists or explications on which VSL articulations of the various (synchronized) instruments are available in Dorico (4.3) ? I hear, and notice in the player, that only few of the articulations available, and given in the Dorico articulation window work, and that many more are provided for in the Dorico expression map.

Is this a limitation of the VSL installer for Dorico, and do I have to make the other articulations available myself, or ?

regards,

Gerard

4.Why not crowd-fund/source the Dorico 3.5 Expression Maps? 12/29/2020 7:35:03 PM

Hello,

I downloaded the articulation maps for the solo strings, a lot of the available VSL patches are listed in the Dorico  Notations toolbox. Did not get it to work yet, but I am still familiarizing with Dorico, and possibly due to confusing, for me, naming

5.Thunderbolt audio interface external SSD 10/17/2019 9:57:30 AM

Paul,

Thanks for the response. I'll go for the ssd drives and skip searching for Thunderbolt, since that would be sufficient performance (as I understand from your response),

regards,

Gerard

6.Thunderbolt audio interface external SSD 10/9/2019 11:41:49 AM

Hello,

Maybe someone is willing to assist on this (as I cannot trace anything specific on it in the forums).

A long trip ahead so I will switch to a Windows laptop for VSL (woodwinds, recorders, solo strings, chamber orechestra, some brass instruments) and Cubase 10, not very large templates (say 20 instruments).

Questions are:

What audio interface is possible (or needed), and is Thunderbolt necessary for that (looking at i.e. Apollo Twin USB or Thunderbolt, or Apollo Arrow)?

How much working memory is needed using Thunderbolt 3 for external SSD's, or does USB3 also suffice for that ?

thanks in advance,

Gerard

7.[SOLVED] creating trills with VI pro sequencer for recorder 6/2/2019 11:18:17 AM

Solved: Depends on the scale settings, use chromatic to avoid the repeating of a sinlge note in a trill

8.[SOLVED] creating trills with VI pro sequencer for recorder 5/20/2019 9:34:31 AM

Hello,

Maybe someone can shed her/his light on a problem I have. Trying to create trills with the 33 RE-So_perf-trill_Vib and noVib patches (recorders) 1/32 notes. For most notes on the scale I can make a reasonable HT trill, but for the F5, Bes5, F6, and Bes6 for the soprano recorder it does not work, only the initial note is repeated in the trill tempo. For other recorders other notes have this behaviour. Am I forgetting something, or what causes this unwelcome behaviour for my trill sequences ?

I do hope there is an explanation, and a cure,

regards,

Gerard

9.recorders patches and articulations 5/12/2019 11:35:39 AM

That makes it clear, thanks.

(I do have quite some VI libraries that do have recorded trills; in single instrument brass, and wooodwinds, and also in Chamber strings and so I expected it also for the recorders)

regards, Gerard

10.recorders patches and articulations 5/10/2019 6:22:55 PM

Thanks, for responding. I cannot find a trill patch anywhere, but sure I can make one but that is not a patch with a recorded trill then,

regards,

Gerard

11.recorders patches and articulations 5/8/2019 12:34:20 PM

Hello,

Not all patches for the recorders appear to present the articulation suggested by the patch name and description in the manual. I remember there was mention of that already in a VSL forum some time ago, but I cannot find it with "search". Notably trills are not in the patches with that name (and the dynamics patches are not very, eehh, dynamic for some recorders, but that maybe in the nature of the instruments). Anyone else misses the trills, or found a work around ?

regards,

Gerard

12.Strings out of tune after VE update (Sibelius) 10/7/2017 11:11:57 AM

Chiming in,

I had a similar problem with the Bass Tuba a month ago (Cubase 9 VE pro). Using a Cubase back up of the project made it go away.

In another recent post I have reported a strange erratic behaviour on the matrix tuning, which changed upon articulation changes without me having applied any changes. Setting the tunng for all matrices manually made it go away.

regards,

Gerard

13.articulation related changes to matrix scale 12 tone and just intonation 10/3/2017 10:01:43 AM

Thanks for the reply. It was not intended to change the tunings, it happened. But, with your remark on the tuning affecting the matrices, I went through all of 'm and found they were all initially on the 12 tone scale, but was not set on that scale by me on purpose (maybe it was a default, when making a new matrix). On playback, with articulations from the various matrices, the changing of the tuning happened. Based on your remarks I changed the tuning of all matrices to just intonation, and now they stay that way during playback. Don't ask me how this happened it all just did,

regards,

Gerard

14.articulation related changes to matrix scale 12 tone and just intonation 10/2/2017 11:52:48 AM

Hi,

In a piece for Bass Tuba and Flügelhorn I made, the scale changes frequently for notably the Bass Tuba, but occasionally also for the Flügelhorn, from just intonation (intended) to 12 tone, depending the articulation played, and which is evoked by Cubase 9 Pro expression maps. The maps and the matrices and presets are made by me. I do not have absolute pitch hearing, and do not notice the change in sound, but it appears a bit odd to me. Is it intended during preparation and selection of the articulation used for the VI articulation, or are my expression maps giving spurious commands ? In short, must I scrutinize the maps (made using a home build suite of VB scripts) ? I have not read about this behaviour before,

regards,

Gerard

15.Expression Maps for Cubase need to be *REDONE* except the ones for Dimension Strings. 2/4/2016 8:41:13 PM

Andi, thanks, I can well agree with that approach. Lacking "in depth" experience in instrumentation, I add to the matrices one or two with the articulations that appeal to me, but those are without "any" structure,

regards,
Gerard

16.Expression Maps for Cubase need to be *REDONE* except the ones for Dimension Strings. 2/4/2016 11:04:19 AM

While trying to make expr. maps for chamber strings and for solo woodwinds and brass', I have of course also been looking for "universal principles" to facilitate making maps without too much effort. I would be interested to find out/hear about any "principles" VSL had in making the expr. maps with the presets that were made available for us.

regards Gerard

17.Is there a map expression for the UPRIGHT BASS? 6/2/2015 7:13:10 AM

Yes, thank you,

18.[SOLVED] not seeing jazz drums or upright bass in VI pro 5/15/2015 12:59:51 PM

Andi,

That was it. Thanks very much for your perseverance, and please accept my apology for being kind of narrow sighted

(but then again, I change PC only every 7 years or so, and did not think about installing the VE and VI with which I started with VSL on the previous PC),

regards,

Gerard

19.[SOLVED] not seeing jazz drums or upright bass in VI pro 5/14/2015 8:48:03 PM

Hi,

In the mixer view in VI pro the required drums are all listed, and receive midi. But the instrument views do not come up and there is no signal in the level meters (and in the DAW).

I have used the VIframes for VI pro and all others. I have redownloaded the Jazzdrums and the Jazzdrum utilities and installed all anew. I have tried all other Jazz drums VIframes. All to no avail.

All other vsl instruments work as expected with Cubase 7.5 with VI pro and VE pro 5 as they used on the pre-migration PC (on Windows 7). Only the Jazz drums don't.

In you, Andy, or anyone would know a of a method to make the old Jazz drums come to live again on my new Windows 8.1 PC ??

regards,

Gerard

20.[SOLVED] not seeing jazz drums or upright bass in VI pro 5/13/2015 6:48:01 PM

Hello,

I have done both procedures, but I still cannot get to my JAZZ DRUMS.

In the mixer view in VI pro the required drums are all listed, and receive midi. But the instrument views do not come up and there is no signal in the level meters (and in the DAW).

(I can access the upright bass.)

The drums have stopped in the VI pro since migration to a new PC using Windows 8.1. Everything else of VSL, including the other libraries, works (so far).

Any clue on what to do to ake it work again ?

regards,

21.Expression Maps under Cubase 7.5 1/27/2015 11:58:11 AM

It is known that Cubase 7.5.3. has an issue with expression map articulations. Cubase 7.5.2 does not have that. Reverting to 7.5.2 solved the problem for me.

Gerard

22.Workstation 1/6/2015 7:13:37 PM

Thanks for the response.

(its hard to choose between extending my instruments and a PC that can handle 'm; maybe I try getting a used rig)

regards

23.Workstation 12/16/2014 1:10:37 PM

Hello too,

I am also interested in what are nowadays suitable items to have in a PC/workstation used with mainly VSL.

In my case that is not with zilloins of tracks, but still I would like to make something that would last a couple of years.

Would anybody know of a "website" with such information for notably work with VSL ?
