hi jim,

i'm currently running 5 machines with vepro. i had to purchase another set of

3 licenses. everything works as it always did only i have 5 machines networked.

kind of expensive but certainly worth it for me.

just purchase the second and register everything the same way you did the first time.

Hi. 

I've just moved my Logic Pro 9.1.8 project from my 3.0 dual quad mac

to a 2.8 8core after the first machine died. 

I was able to copy the full logic project as well as the vepro

metaframes to the new machine. 

Myhope was to run the vepro metaframes locally in logic on the 

new mac. 

I moved all of the drives containing the samples to the new mac and 

tried to open them in vepro hoping that logic would then see them

and connect locally, or at least I could connect manually. 

When logic tries to connect or I try to connect manually, I get various

errors when it tries to load every instance of kontakt 5. 

If I load kontakt manually into the metaframes, it loads but in can't get

midi to kontakt. It will play audio from kontakts keyboard. 

I'm trying to avoid having to re create all of the metaframes, from scratch. 

Am I missing something obvious that isn allowing the metaframes to

work on the second machine?

 OS 10.68. Vepro 5.2.12785

Thanks much

Dan

I

that's what i think is happening, but maybe not.

i have logic 9.1.7 on a mac 3.0 dual quad and core vepro5 build 5.1.12010 on two pc slaves and one mac 2.8 8 core slave.

the pc's work great but the mac seems to "sort of" loose connection with logic. i say "sort of" because it will sound distorted with clicks on pops

when vep is playing notes in a sequence in logic but if i play intstruments in vep directly from logic (as in recording midi) there is no distortion.

i can't seem to resovle the issue by disconnecting/ re-connecting. the only way to resolve it is to re-boot logic and vepro. if i re-boot only logic

it does not work, i have to do both.

this has been going on for years thought many vepro versions and mac os versions. my reason for asking now is that sometimes i can't even resolve it by re-booting.

any ideas?

<edit>  running decoupled.

thanks much,

dan

hi paul,

thank you much for your quick response!

this pc is running W7. do you need other system details?

yes i have uninstalled and reinstalled and restarted the latest eLCCversion,  several times with no luck.

i have since found that SOMETIMES the key and licenses show up in eLCC but i still get the same error when i try and open vepro. other times the key will not show up in eLCC.

i will send a screenshot and support file when i get back in the studio.

thanks again!

dan

hi,

i have 4 elicense keys, 2 on mac's and 2 on pc's all containing vepro 5 licenses. one of them also contains a mir license.

i moved the mir license to a different key to accomodate some other licenses. now the key with the mir license is not recognised

by one of the pc's, unfortunatley the one i need mir on. the strange thing is that the key with mir works on all the other machines, mac and pc.

i did the license tranfer on a mac.

i get an error:

<application LCC2 has caused the following error

DCOM connection to the program "synsopos.exe failed

error: the remote procedure call failed>

i have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest versions of vepro5 and the elicense sortware. tried rolling back windows7 to an earlier point, but with no success.

any ideas?

thanks so much in advance.

hi,

i've run across a stange problem. i'm trying to uninstantiate an instance of ve pro 5 in logic and when i click on the insert containing vep,

imediately the slave instance starts "saving" once it's done saving i return to logic and click/hold on the insert again and the slave instance

saves once again. this keeps happening nver allowing me to remove vep. it's a never ending cycle. i must being doing something wrong but i've

no idea what. this works to remove other instances, maybe it's just a corupt logic file.

if anyone has any idea what might be causing this, i'd be grateful for the help.

thanks much !

hi,

i'm wondering if there is a way to cancel past the warnings when vepro 5 doesn't like an au plugin. when the warning dialogue comes up, i can't cancel or do anything to get past the warning. if i could cancel the dialogue i could at least work without those plugs.

thanks again !

dan

hi antcarrier,

thank for your reply. no i'm not running logic, i'm running vepro in standalone 64x. these plugs work fine in logic 64x and are authorized.

my biggest problem now is i can't open vepro without removing the components from the system plugin folder.

thanks

thanks

hi,

i'm trying to open vepro 5, 64x, in standalone fo rthe first time. while vepro is scanning the au's it stops warning me that a plugin is not authorized. the plugin is authorized and works in othe hosts. i've removed some of these plugs only to find more already fully funtional plugins that vepro warns me that they are not authorized. the other problem is that verpo will not let me cancel or retry. the warning dialogue doesn't work, so i have to force quit vepro.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

@civilization, thanks for the suggestion !

unfortunately on or off doesn't seem to make a difference.

dan

thank you for looking into the crash logs !

as i can't decipher them i didn't know that the crashes are originating with kontakt 4.

i'll get in touch with NI.

thanks again!

i know this may be rather vague, but maybe someone can help me look in the right direction.
vepro
is crashes my slave, maybe 9 fo 10 times if i do almost anything, from  instantiating a vi, save a metaframe, i even when quitting vepro i get an error and crash.
if i open an existing metaframe and connect to the host and then don't touch it, everything fine until i do anything with vepro.
i don't think it's a memory issue as i have lots of unued ram and it doesn't seem to matter the size of the project.

i'm running vepro in logic 9 64 bit on a mac 2x 3ghz quad xeon, 20gig ram. os 10.6.4
vepro on a mac slave 2x 2.8ghz quad xeon 32gig ram.  vepro version 4.1.8861. os 10.6.4

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!!!

same issue here. using fixed ip's.

would you need a cross-over cable?

thanks

i'm wondering if there is any more info about this problem. i've got a sequence that i can hardly start without notes hanging, while playing, or after stopping.it seems to affect mostly two plugins, broadway brass (on an i7, windows 7, kontakt 4.1.1) and sample modeling trumpet/trombone and all saxes,(on a slave 2.8, 8 core mac 10.6.4, kontakt 4.1.1). the host is logic 9.1.2 on a 3.0 quad core mac 10.6.4.

thanks for any help!

dan

just checking to see if there is any news on this issue.

it happens a lot for me but i can't really pin point what makes it happen.

i will not be able to startup a logic file maybe 4 or 5 times in a row without gatting the"can't load plugin" and then all of the sudden it will work. it happens on both the slave and locally on the host.

thanks,

dan

i'm getting somewhat the same problem, but it seems to load ok on the first start of a logic file. if for any reason i have to close and re-open logic, i get the "can't open plugin" error on the slave mac, not the host, unless i close and re-open the server before re-opening logic.

hi,

i don't know if this is a uad issue or vep.
 i'm finding myself unable to use my uad plugs inside of vienna pro ensemble as when i touch the uad window the gui inside jumps to the right mostly out of the viewable window, so i can't see the most of the controls anymore. i have a screen shot but i don't know how to include it. since the window is not expandable, it makes use near impossible.
anyone come across this?

thanks,
dan

nice of you to respond plowman, i hope you're well.

i did rebuild my environment between 8 and 9, but not between 9 and 9.0.2.

yes, notes even hang during a real-time bounce. it's seems odd that running only one host machine works pretty well, but injecting the slave causes problems, but on the host. i wish i were smart enough to know what that means but i know better than that.

thanks,

dan

thanks for responding,

the samples on the host are on external FW 800 drives. the samples on the 8core slave are on internal. no FW interfaces on either.

i,ve done a bit more research. disregarding the G5 for diagnosis.

i can disable the 8 core slave nad just run the quad host, and it gets much better. the interesting thing is when i reconnect the 8core, the hanging note problems arise on the host quad machine, not the slave.

i'm now wondering what changes on the host machine, when the slave is connected, that makes the host machine have problems with hung notes,

and not when the slave is connected.

thanks again,

dan

hi,

i'm having problems with notes hanging. it seems to make a difference where in my sequence i start playpack. i'll have, for instance and 100 bar sequence. if i start play at bar one, i'll get random stuck notes somewhere during playback. if i start somewhere in the middle (it doesn't really matter where) i'll often get a large number of hanging notes, some wont stop until i re-play from the begining or a non-looped sample ends.

i'm pretty much unable to work without this happening and when i mix i just have to cross my fingers that it will play to the end before note hang.

oddly, the vi's that hang most often are vienna instruments, the kontakt instruments seem better.

also, the problem seems to be a little better on a fresh boot and slowly get worse over time.

wondering if anyone might have any suggestions.

thanks much,

dan

Hello Dan,

hey aaron,
thanks for responding.
i was trying to insert some midi filtering and transformers into the chain between the host and VE3.

edited by cm - email addresses removed to avoid spiders catching them for spam

 sorry to bump this, maybe i didn't phrase my question very well

i am using VE3 plugin on my G5 hosted by Logic. i have the VE3 app and library on a slave intel mac. can i send midi from the G5 to the slave VE3 through a hardware midi interface rather than thought the ethernet connection.

sorry if this is a stupid question.

thanks
