Anyone?

Does anyone know a way to automate it globally so it's not on a per instance basis?

Is there any update on this?

Is there a way to assign this as a global parameter? So that in my DAW, when I select a track and press the assigned button, it'll disable/enable whichever track is selected. At the moment, it's only applying to any instances that I've manually set it up on.

I would have just commented on the old one but for some reason it wouldn't let me. Think it might be closed.

Does anyone know how to resolve the issues posted about in this thread:

I've removed all authorised connections and re-added them all in the firewall, but VEPro still comes up with this when I open it every time. It doesn't happen when the firewall is disabled.

This would be a great new feature :)

I also get this on OS 10.11.1 (had it before that too). Usually I noticed it when I'd quit logic completely, my windows slave would disconnect fine, but more often than not, my localhost server connection would stay active, even though logic had completely closed! If I reopen logic, those instances don't reconnect, it's like they've frozen. To resolve this I have to force disconnect all in the local server, and then just reload my logic template and it all reconnects fine. 

Very odd indeed!

I recently upgraded my systems so I've got the slave pc and a 4GHz iMac 5k host now. The problems have mostly gone away, although I occasionally get crackles and pops and a popup saying 'error while trying to sync audio and midi: sample rate ..... not recognised'. I don't know what causes this, but for the most part a quick pause and then play sorts it out. The main issue I was having before has been resolved with the upgrade, partly because I'm now hosting some of the smaller samples/ones I don't use as much on the new host, so the slave can focus all its power on the more system intensive samples (I use VEPro on both machines for ease of project management). I have yet to try a full template with the new systems, but I found on the old system it became bearable if I only kept the instruments I absolutely needed connected. I'm still getting about 90% cpu usage on the 3.5GHz 6-core slave though when I hit play (10-12% idle), so I'm not completely it's totally set up right, or if it is, these samples are just very system intensive, even for my specs!

Hi,

I've copied across some files for templates (M-Frames and channel strips etc.), but when I try to open them on my mac, I get this message (see screenshot).

I also can't load channel strips properly, it only loads the right number of channels with the name, but doesn't load any samples and the play instance isn't showing in the V-instance.

Is it not possible to transfer them across from PC to Mac?

Hi,

will any e-licenser key (eg. http://www.gear4music.com/Recording-and-Computers/Steinberg-USB-Copy-Protection-eLicenser-Key/64T?origin=product-ads&utm_campaign=PLA+Shop+-+Steinberg&utm_medium=vertical_search&network=google&adgroup=*All+Products.+Steinberg&merchant_id=1279443&product_id=7949d1&product_country=GB&product_partition_id=87577298599&gclid=CNL1mZ6Z4cgCFWnkwgodUA0BGA#full-des) work with licensing my VEPro? Or is the only one that works the one that is on the website here?

Get rid of Play instrument if you can, VSL have beatifull strings (I was a QLSO client)

I don't think play offers the functionality to load them all into one channel and switch via keyswitches sadly (unless you know of a way!)

Don't think I can afford VSL right now (I'm a poor student :p ) and I really like the libraries I've got, even if I can't quite work out the best way to set them up!

I've also noticed that the midi chase function in logic does not appear to work when using this template.

Attached are some MIDI environment screenshots I've just taken. From the looks of it it's actually set up identically to the 2x48 template. VEPro 1-3 are hooked up to midi ports 1-48, and 4-6 are hooked up to a second set of 1-48.  Although I may be totally misreading the data as I have never seen anything like that before ha!

 

This setup is totally crazy !  it is adressing 1536 midi channels ! ( 2 x 48 X 16)

Why do you need 1536 instruments ?

it is quite normal you are having problems !

My Orchestral template is using 100 instrument so 100 midi channels and it is using all the Levell II articulations of those 100 instruments

I don't need that many, but I need more than the basic one for my Hollywood libraries (ie. Violin 1 sustained, legato, portamento, pizz, staccato, staccatissimo, bartok pizz, col legno), and then violin 2 etc. When I set these up on 1 v-frame each (violin 1, violin 2), my CPU went through the roof on the slave pc. I'm now trying to add instruments to 6 v-frames (each with 10-16 play instances in them - ie. strings, woodwind, brass, etc.) to see if that helps to resolve my CPU issues.

To fix this remove it 

What do I remove? I've literally just opened the template up blank, so I haven't added any instruments that would be using that. I don't even know what an IAC port is :p

I'm also getting this message when opening the logic files (see attached).

I''d like to route VE Pro Main 2 to the slave PC. Midi signal comes in but doesn't sound anything.

When I set MIDI IN: OMNI in slave, it works. But it's not what I want.

Can you help me?

I'm not sure but I think there's some problem in the Multiport 6x16 Ports template. 

VE Pro Main 2 works in the 2x48 Ports template. Can you check if I'm woring?

I need 3x16 Ports.

I think I'm having a similar issue. It works if I set the midi port to 17, rather than back to 1 for VEPro Main 2. It's like it carries on straight from the VEPro Main 1 V-frame, rather than a new v-frame for VEPro Main 2. VEPro Main 3 midi port has to start at 33 rather than 1 as well. I haven't had a chance to try it with the others.

I can confirm that the 2x48 template works fine with the second V-frame midi channel set to 1 rather than 49.

Hi,

A while back I was having some issues with my systems, but I haven't had time to properly investigate it but it is annoying me too much now and is making my work a lot harder to do! Here are two videos of the issue, sorry for the rubbish camerawork! Attached are also screenshots of the various settings I have for VEPro running Play, which is on the slave pc (details in signature), and the logic screenshots (mac) which has the VEPro server plugin running. I can only upload 5 at a time so I'll post follow up messages with the rest.

The issue I'm having is that I'm getting severe distortion/delay effects and pops and clicks when playing the midi in using my keyboard as Logic is playing. When I don't have the video running, I'm not getting the clicks, but as soon as I press play, or try to listen to tracks back, I suddenly get a huge amount of clicks and pops. The firewall is off on the slave PC, and the connection is via ethernet. Both systems have internet (wifi) switched off from startup and it still does it. I know it's a problem with the play/VEP setup as there is no issue when using logic's own built-in instruments. It only happens to play instruments (I don't have any other libraries so cannot test if it also does it to them). 

This problem has been plaguing me since I bought the samples and VEPro, so any advice would be hugely appreciated as it'll make working so much easier once it's fixed, at the moment it's near impossible.

Thanks,

Peter

In case anyone else is having this problem, I found the solution finally!

The issue was with the voice count within play, so when there were large string sections all playing at once (or other instruments), the max voices, which I think was set to 124 or something, was peaking, so I've now increased it to 1000+ before any issues should arise... Doubt I'll hit that many voices though!

Hope this helps anyone else that's struggling

I've got mine set to 1024

I've done all the things you suggested but I'm still getting dropouts where some notes just don't play at all :(
