Hi Saxer!Hi there! Got the template today and it "looks" good As a Logic user I thought I could use is with VEPro but it seems more complicated.
To get access to multiple ports Logic needs the VEPro plugin AudioUnit3. If I connect a single VEPro AU3 plugin to the template there's no connection happening. I can click on 'connect' but no reaction. Nothing audible. No successfull connection to VEPro. If I then click on 'disconnect' Logic and VEPro freeze and I have to force quit both. I tried that a few times. Not just with this template. Even with a single instance with one instrument. No connection - freeze. Unusable. I'm on Catalina, newest Logic & VEPro7.
The regular AU version of the VEPro plugin in Logic works without problems but then I have only access to port 1 (Piano, Piccolo, Horns, Violins1). 16 MIDI channels. That's it.
Another thing: I wanted to use the Split Articulation version to set different negative delay times for each articulation. But Logic doesn't have different delay time settings for each MIDI channel. It works per track/plugin.
The standard way to connect VEPro with Logic is one Instance of VEPro per instrument. That solves the port-problem but not the track delay.
A lesson I learned: avoid multis in Logic as much as possible. It works somehow but mainly Logic is designed to have one intrument per track.
Now is the question how to reorganize it.
One way would be to have one instance of VEPro per section per articulation. So all woodwinds legato, all woodwinds sustain etc per VEPro instance.
But my dream setup would be two VEPro instances per instrument: one track for legatos and one key-switched track for the faster notes (pizz, spicc, stacc etc... to marcato... so all the 50ms delay articulations).
Is it possible to keep the routing and mix of the template by copying VEPro instances and deleting the non-wanted Kontakts?
Sorry to hear that!
That really sucks! 1 track per instruments seems such a waste of cpu power! This IS the reason i did not use one track per articulation. Even my 128 gb machine did not like 1 kontakt per articulation. I guess the best way for you to go forward is to use the kontakt multis provided in the plugin preset folder in you access link. Also the standalone logic version is officially in the making. So you COULD wait for that version to get the proper routing and plugin settings. Then make connections to your VEP variant and copy paste the correct plugin settings? Hope we can solve this asap!
