1.MISSION COMPLETED: Moving from eLicenser to iLok 3/4/2021 10:03:30 AM

Hello Everyone,

It is my pleasure to announce that we’re starting to prepare the move to a new license management platform.

eLicenser has served us well during many years, but we’re also well aware of some limitations of the platform that we want to overcome for our customers and for us.

Thus we’re currently preparing the transition of all of our products to PACE’s iLok license management solution. This will take some time, but we’d like to let you know as early as possible that many new options in license handling will be available to our customers in the future, and that the entire process of purchasing and activating products will be streamlined and improved.

To make the entire migration as easy and hassle-free for our customers (and for us ;-), here are a few key facts we’d like to share that early in the process:

  • FREE TRANSITION: Moving your licenses from the eLicenser to the iLok platform will be free of charge for you.

  • CHOICE OF KEY OR CLOUD: You will be able to choose if you’d like to store your VSL licenses on the iLok hardware key or in the iLok Cloud without using a hardware key.

  • COMPATIBILITY: Under the iLok system, you will still be able to open existing projects as long as the eLicenser is connected. Once the project has been saved again, the eLicenser will no longer be required.

  • CONTINUED SERVICE: You’ll be able to continue to use the ViennaKey/eLicenser USB key as well as the eLicenser Control Center for as long as it is working on your computers’ operating systems. Your licenses are safe and perpetual. Steinberg will keep the eLicenser license server available as long as possible, so you’ll be able to move licenses between eLicenser USB keys and will receive replacement licenses in case of damage, theft or loss of your eLicenser key (for free if you have a valid Vienna Protection Plan) well beyond the time when the iLok system is already available to you.

    For every registered product in your VSL account, you will receive an iLok license. You will NOT be asked to return or delete any of your existing licenses on the eLicenser.

We’ll be able to provide more information later this year. Before you ask, at this time we don’t know when exactly we’ll be able to start moving licenses to the iLok platform, but you’ll be the first to know as we move along in the process.

What’s more, we’re now offering ViennaKeys at a substantial discount, and we’ll include a free €20 voucher with every ViennaKey order in our web shop.


Best wishes from Vienna,
Herb Tucmandl
CEO

2.WOW!! Big Bang Orchestra: Andromeda 11/24/2019 3:30:15 PM

Hi Paolo,

as these are complete new recordings I'd say keep the previous version. Little things hvae been adapted.
Just one example: we wanted shorter shorts this time. So if you need them for any reason exactly as they have been perfomed in the Free version, just use that version. 

Sometimes it's good to have more choices, even if the differences are subtle.

best,
Herb

3.Vel XF with Synchron timpani 7/31/2019 12:19:08 PM

Hi Richard,

you can customize for selected Patches the velocity Mode.
Select any patch and in the Edit Tab (below the patches) you will see the drop down box where you can fix the velocity XFade mode to on or off. Which is than overruling your Global Xfade mode.
So setting rolls to Velocity XFade On, and leaving all other patches to Global, (and Global setting is Off) should do the trick.

4.Trills in Dimension strings VIPro and SYnzd 5/17/2019 11:27:26 AM

Hi V ad im

holding one key permanently is not recommended, also not in VI.
The performance trills are based on multiple variations of the same interval samples, and holding one key permanently will trigger always the same interval sample in one direction. The other key which is performed will trigger the variations. So depending which key you have fixed either all up or all down intervalsamples are not altered. So a real performed trill on a keyboard will offer the best results.

5.NEW SYNCHRON PLAYER UPDATE 1.1.1159 4/3/2019 9:36:14 PM

Hi Jimmy,

6.VelXF switch on/off per articulation in Synchron Player? 11/30/2018 10:28:31 AM

Hi Stig,

Select a patch and go to the EDIT tab, you will see there the "Velocity Crossfade" field, which can be set to Global, On or Off.
Take care that you select always the last entrie to the right side in a Patch tree, otherwise the parameters are not visible.

7.Synchronized Chamber Strings 10/28/2018 4:44:49 PM

You can perform the alternations at any tempo, it's just about the gaps between the notes, in a slower tempo the gaps may become to large therefor the player triggers starting notes (where two alternating variations are available). Just take care about the gaps between the notes, minimize them if necessary, and you will trigger the "performance repetitions" (8 variations).

8.Missing Patches 10/28/2018 10:11:21 AM

Hi Chris,

"Près-de-la-table" is a patch which is exclusively part of the Extended version of the Harps.
Here you can see an overview about the difference between Standard/Extended content:
https://www.vsl.co.at/en/Harps/Harp_1#!Sample_Content

As far as I can see in your VSL acount, you have registered Harp1 Standard Edition.

9.Long patches Vel XF 8/2/2018 10:59:47 AM

Hi Javajam,

the lyrical vibrato patches do not have a fff layer, regular vibrato patches do have a fff.
Therefor a patch crossfade between regular and lyrical vibrato with maximum velocity would cause a higher gain on the regular vibratos.

all the best
Herb

12.HISTORIC WINDS III - natural horn 7/2/2017 2:38:35 PM

Hi Triangle,

each of the 10 available Horns is an unique recording. Historic Winds III offers 10 different horns.
On the sample content you can also read this info:

"Since the articulations are exactly the same for all the natural horns and only differ in their sample counts and ranges, only the Patches of the Natural Horn in C Alto are listed here."

That means all the other horns contain exactly the same patches which are listed for the C alto.

best,
Herb

13.Synchron Perc Surround Examples 5/4/2017 1:51:25 PM

Hi Greg,

we have now a new demo online, where you can compare between a regular Stereo mix using Standard content, and a 2nd version with Full Mic content in a Downmix to Stereo version:

SY-4U - Stereo Mix
SY-4U - Surround to Stereo-Downmix

https://www.vsl.co.at/en/Percussion_Complete/Synchron_Percussion_I#!Demos

Even just comparing within this downmix to stereo version showcase the difference and sonic possibilities quite good. You can imagine how a real surround or even a 3D mix might sound!
I recomment to download both files and add them into any multittrack audio software for an effective comparison.

Both tracks are straight out of the box mixes, no plugins, no EQ, no additional reverb.

14.Dimension Strings - Humanizing "md" 5/2/2017 12:22:00 PM

Hi Michael,

the "md" versions stands for "More Delay" to give the option of a more audible timing randomisation if needed.
The detuning curves are the same.

Herb

15.Auto-vibrato 1/25/2017 6:44:42 PM

If you mean with wide vibrato the pitch amount of the amplitude, you can set this up with the "Tun" controller.
Value 127 offers the maximun amount, which is IMO way over the top. Settings between 30 to 70 should work well. (of course the "Hmz" controler should be also set to 127, otherwise you scale the amplitude with this slider.

Hi ddunn,

Humanize vibrato presets are available inside VI-Pro since 4 or 5 years.
You can find them in the Humanize Presetfolder "10 FX".
There are labeled "LFO effect", presets for fast, medium and progressive vibtratos are available.

17.New Solo Violin 2 and Solo Cello 2 has changed dynamic articulation? 1/15/2017 5:31:37 PM

Hi Jesper,

We've decided to assign open and fingered strings for A/B switching, otherwise the amount of patches would have been doubled.

18.[SOLVED] vep 5 will not load vsl samples into VEP5 12/27/2016 8:55:21 PM

Hi Jim,

Presets and Matrices should be loaded when you do a double click.
If you want to load a dedicated patch you have to use drag and drop, because you have to decide in which cell ou want to place the selcted patch.
So it depends at which level of the VI browser you are operating. There are three Tabs at the top to switch between the categories: Presets, Matrices and Patches

In our eyes, that should cover most situations.

Hi Paul,

Does VSL have any plans to release the extended library of Dimension Brass I?

 

Yes, we do have plans.

There is third volume planned, which will focus on natural horns exclusively (more than 12 different intsruments)

23.Solo Strings 1 11/28/2016 3:24:12 PM

Hi Chris,

the sample content is of course identical.
Maybe the difference you mean is just reverb related?
The audition player performs by default the MIRX Grosser Konzerthaussaal.

If you like you can test this reverb:

25.VIP Midi Dump into Cubase Step Input + Middle C issue 11/17/2016 7:39:49 PM

Hi asilvestri,

Do you use the mididump with instances loaded in VE-PRO?
Mididump via Step Input should work when you send it from a slave computer.
If you are running VE-PRO on your Master computer it's not possible any more since Cubase 7.
This is somehow related to active status of the editor window in Cubase. Before Cubase 7 this has worked also when it was inactive. If you click Mididump inside VE-PRO you can not stay active in Cubase.
I already have talked to the Cubase developers to get it back, because I also miss this feature.

As far as as I know it's not possible to change the middle C defintion in Cubase. But it's possible inside VI PRO inside the "General settings". (the small icon on the left of the Version number). So you can set Middle C to C3 in VI PRO there. Maybe this helps to have the middle C defintion syncronised between Sequenzer and VI PRO.

best
Herb
