1.Waves Flowmotion crashing VEP 1/1/2021 9:07:15 PM

Hello everyone, 

anybody has problems using Waves FlowMotion synth from the VEP ?

I have no problems running it in ProTools (Ultimate 2020.12), but from the VEP (VST, not using AU) it hangs, behaves strangely and ultimately crashes the software. Let me know if anyone has the same problems. 

VEP 7 last version, Waves V12, Macpro running Mojave.

Thanks and Happy New Year

It must be something related to Kontakt, I have this ALL the time with ProTools, when I close a session VEP always quits...

Of course, I know. Forgot to mention. These old sessions were made with Kontakt 5. For compatibility reasons I kept all my Kontakt versions, so right now in my system there is version 5.8 and version 6.2 (which shows as simply "Kontakt") but I have no problems reopening old sessions made with all versions of K5 or K6. Just this one (actually, two).

4.Kontakt not loading 6/26/2020 8:41:14 PM

Last version of the VEP used on the same computer (Macpro 5,1 running Mojave with ProTools Ultimate 2020.5).

Opening a 3 years old session, I have two instances of Kontakt that do not load.

It shows me this error : Errors occurred while loading plugins:

VST: Kontakt 5 Could not open plugin (x2)

Can't remember with which version of Kontakt this session was done, for sure it was older than the one I have now.

Right now I have v. 6.2 installed.

Any idea ? Thank you

6.Channel name 9/21/2019 2:00:45 PM

Hello,

is it normal that when I insert a plugin instrument the channel automatically takes its name, but then if I replace that plugin with another instrument the channel name remains the same ?

Thanks for these reports. It would help a lot if you included the version numbers of the failing plug-ins, to reassure us that you are using the latest available versions (old support wisdom: Every user THINKS he is using the latest version, but it is rarely the case).

Just to let you know that we are monitoring our forum and doing our best to follow up. 

Best,

Maybe it is the mirroring? What happens if you switch it off, to check?

Best,

Just checked, nothing changes...

I tested a bit more, it happens with ALL Waves plugins, AU and VST, VIs and non VIs (INs and FX slots),

even if I detach the window. With Arturia it seems ok now.

Not for me, having the same problem on a Raven Mti 27" and a Philips 32", both 1920x1080, mirrored.

Unfortunately for me it happens since the first v.7 release...

11.VEP 7 some plugins show empty interface 5/26/2019 6:03:41 PM

It happens since v. 7 especially with Waves, sometimes with Arturia too (both VIs and FX), plugins open with a completely empty interface. No matter what I do, click, etc. Tried reinstalling, changing some preferences, nothing changes. It happens with both VST and AU. VEP 7.0.834 on Macpro running MacOS 10.14.4 (Mojave).

Anyone else has this problem ?

Please keep us up to date.

Yes, even though sometimes when I load the VEP it seems to scan some plugins anyways (even if I haven't changed anything).. also since version 7 when I instantiate some V.I.s their interface is completely dark... it happens with some Arturia and Waves, but it seems intermittent... but this is another subject...

13.VEP7 some plugins not passing validation 5/25/2019 10:16:37 PM

So it seems by reinstalling all mcdsp and eventide stuff now passes validation...

Gonna try reinstalling Air and Flux

14.VEP7 some plugins not passing validation 5/25/2019 9:30:13 PM

Still having big problems validating my plugins (yes, updated to the last VEP version)

I am on Mac / Mojave. Reset and rescan from VEP preferences.

Here's a list of plugins failing validation (all VST):


Native Instruments Absynth 5 FX
McDsp FilterBank Native v6
McDsp CompressorBank Native v6
McDsp EC-300 Native v6
McDsp FutzBox Native v6
AIR Hybrid
Flux EvoChannel
Eventide 2016 Stereo Room
Eventide 2016 Reverb
Eventide Ultrachannel Native
Eventide Ultrareverb Native
Eventide Ultratap
Eventide Blackhole
Eventide Newfangled Equivocate

Anyone else ?

Thanks

15.Empty V.I. windows in VEP 7 5/11/2019 3:12:10 PM

Since when I upgraded to VEP 7 sometimes when I work on kontakt and click on something the window becomes totally empty... I have to close it and reopen it. Sometimes it happens when I switch from ProTools to VEP, but haven't been able to connect precisely to a specific event or click... anyone has this problem ?

Edit : happens with all VIS (not only Kontakt). I've included a jpg

Also I'd really like that when you select an output on a channel (for example when assigning multiple kontakt audio outs) VEP could show the already used outputs with a different color...

16.Muted / messed up notes while recording MIDI 2/8/2019 2:20:54 PM

Exactly, but you can find so many contradictory opinions out there...

anyways I will invesigate more to make sure this was the cause to what it looked more like a Midi problem to me...

Thank you for your help !

We can definitely check out a song where this happens reliably, if you send it to .

Maybe someone else also has other ideas, so please feel free to chime in! 

Best,
Paul

 

That's the problem Paul, it's very intermittent... For example yesterday searching through the internet I found a post by someone who apparently "solved" the problem by turning off the multiprocessor support in Kontakt... so today I tried it, and voilà, problem is gone ! BUT, turning it on again, the problem is not there anymore either... I can't figure out what else changed between yesterday and today.

Anyone else has this problem ?

19.Muted / messed up notes while recording MIDI 1/31/2019 9:56:07 PM

Not easy to explain and not sure it's VEP related... anyways...:

Vep Pro 6.0.17226 (last version available) used on a MacPro 5,1 12core 3.33GHz, 64G RAM, with ProTools HD 12.5. Mostly use the VEP to load Kontakt instances while recording midi tracks in PT. 

Often, but not always, when I record a midi track in PT, notes already programmed on other midi tracks for other patches (IN THE SAME KONTAKT INSTANCE) get stuck, muted, or play indefinitely. Usually I have 4 midi ports enabled on each VEP instance, for each port I have one Kontakt instance with "All" midi channels enabled.

Might be some settings in the VEP or maybe Kontakt/PT related ?

Other settings I have : 

Multiprocessing : 12 threads, Audio outputs : 32 per instance, Audio inputs : 2 per instance, Buffers : 2

Thanks !

I can confirm this solution works well

Doing it right now, thank you

23.Problems with VEP and Pro Tools / Kontakt 8/21/2015 2:14:43 PM

Brian, what solved the problem for me was one particular setting in Kontakt.

Go to Options/Memory, turn OFF the "Use Memory Server" option under the "KMS - KONTAKT Memory Server" tab, then turn ON the "Override Instrument's Preload Size" under the "Instrument Preload buffer size" tab.

The inportant setting is how big you set this buffer size, for me setting it at 90.00 kB made everything completely load before playing, so no more chopped notes, you have probably to try different values until you find the smallest one that makes everything work on your system.

Hope this helps

24.Problems with VEP and Pro Tools / Kontakt 4/19/2015 6:07:16 PM

Hello,
I'm successfully demoing the VEP Pro 5, but I have a couple problems, and just wanted to make sure it's not anything related to the VEP but to other plugins/applications.
I'm using typically 4-5 instances of Kontakt 5 (VST, last version, all updates done) with 64 audio outs into ProTools HD 11 (native) on MacPro 2010 Dual Quad Core 2,4 GHz, 32 GB RAM, running Yosemite.
I normally setup latency to 1 buffer on the VEP Server Interface.
 
When I load a session in PT, the VEP (quite slowly, but that's another story) loads all the Kontakts' patches.
When all seems loaded I play the session, but many notes are chopped or cut, as if Kontakt's still loading samples (I have the option "load samples in background" unchecked in Kontakt).
I have to play the whole session a couple times before having all my notes play. Is this normal ?


Another problem I have, sometimes when I select a stereo bus coming from the VEP as input in one aux/audio stereo track in ProTools I can't select the bus I want. For example I select bus 11-12 but it gives me 7-8.
It seems shifted by 4, some number cannot be selected at all.
I made a little video here :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIK3aiY2v3E Not sure it's strictly VEP-related, but who knows.

Thank you in advance
