Hello, I was finishing my orchestral template (finally) but I stumbled upon the realization that I actually need to up the VEPro plugin's Buffer Size to not have cracks in the audio when many tracks are playing at the same time. I'm using VEPro 6.5 (latest version before 7).
My question is as...
Hello, I've searched on this topic but all answers are old (2 years old usually) or inconclusive. These questions are related to very big, high-track-count Orchestral Template projects with a lot of virtual instruments. I would really appreciate your help on this.
As of now, using the latest...
Vienna Ensemble Pro 8
Yes, yes, I know, we're all still getting used to the newer VEPro7 (I still remember VEPro5 !!), but I keep hearing rumblings of an imminent release of VEPro 8.
Better implementation of the MIDI Automation switching (setup, workflow, correct naming of the MIDI CCs) is one...
Hey folks,
So, I'm just in the process of reviewing our studio's approach to our DAW setup, templates, storage, etc etc - something we do every year in July. Not just for music but everything, including editing and video production, etc etc.
Anyway, as many of you will know, we've been using a...
Should I use opus in multi timbral and have one opus plugin instance or many plugin instance of opus with one instrument per instance in opus. For Kontakt 7 I use One instance of Kontakt for each plugin instance of VEPRO witch seems better for what I do.
THANKS,
In a nutshell, I can use SENDS to send to a group channel, but only for instruments added directly to Cubase. But for instruments added through VEPro as rack instruments, SENDS won't let me send to a group channel. I show my setup in this brief video. I feel that I must be missing something...

Hi all,
Apologies if this is in the incorrect section (seemed appropriate), please let me know if this should go elsewhere.
Issue: I recently had an upgraded pc built as I have a rather large template and was hitting cpu bottlenecks. I'm still seemingly bottlenecking...
Sometime last year, I started to have seemingly random pitch drift of some samples on my host. Thought it was some residual build up on my template. Mostly with Albion strings.
fast forward to today I finished a completely new template. Immediately having drift on some of my woodwind samples...
Hi everyone!
This is my first post so thank you in advance for any help anyone is able to give.
I'm a film composer currently using one pretty powerful 27-inch iMac to run Cubase 11, with samples hosted on an external 2TB SSD. I often have to work with pretty big templates (60-100 Instrument...
Short version: Will I notice a big performance boost by using VEPro to host all my instruments, (for a large orchestral template in Reaper) even without having a slave PC? Or should I not bother with VEPro until I can afford a slave?
Longer version:
Been trying to put together an orchestral...
Hey community!
I have a question as I couldn't find it anywhere on the web. I made a template in Studio one, routed with VEPro 7, 120 instruments split in 5 instances, so not that much.
Anyway, I wanted to speed up loading time so i disabled every kontakt instance in Vienna on startup. When i...
I have been building an orchestral template using VEPro into Cubase (Nuendo actually). I have been building it with 2 outputs per Kontakt instrument, one for long articulations and another for short articulations so I can apply different processing to them within Nuendo.
I don't have many...
Hey all,
i am contemplating purchasing Vepro 7 but have some questions, i thought some Vepro aficionados may help me decide, so first question,
1) Does it make sense to run Vepro on a single computer? Buying a second computer is unfortunately not an option for me at the moment, so i'm...
I'm using VEPro 7 and Logic 10.4.4. I have created a VEPro template 4 Instances (WINDS, PERC, STRINGS, BRASS), and I want to use the Logic AU3 BETA Template. But the project only has 24 port with 3 instances. I know I could move merge my instances and then it would be fine. But I want there to...
I'm trying to figure out how to create a reverb send in Logic. But I want the reverb unit to be in a VEPro instance and then on a track in Logic I can use a bus to send a part of the signal to it. From videos I've seen I've only seen how to use the Audio Event to switch the output form a track...
So I got a new PC Slave. I have been using Mac mini Slaves before this. So I have an iMac as my main Master machine running Logic, and now an i7 PC that is the slave machine running VEPro server. Now everything is running fine between the Mac and PC with VEPro.
My only problem is my PC is in...
So I see with the new VEPro7 there is an iPad called VM1. And the pdf document it says you can download the app from the App Store, but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone else see it? Or have a link to it. Would like like to try how well it integrates with VEP and using in Logic.
I’ve come upon an issue that I’ve never seen before. In setting up a template on a slave with VEPro, I’m seeing that 8Dio’s Century Strings and Century Strings Sordino are using approximately twice the amount of memory that it shows in Kontakt.
I get that there is some overhead in any...
Hi guys,
I want to work with 1 master and 2 slaves computers in Vienna Ensemble Pro.
I've read I need a Gigabit Switch to connect the three together.
Since I have two lan ports on each computer, I can have internet on a separate port of the master, so I don't actually need internet signal on...
Hi community,
I recently stumbled upon a cubase+VEPRO halt.
My VEPRO is running locally with kontakt instances. I noticed that every time I leave my workstation and the cubase is connected to VEPRO server and I don't use it for a few hours it is stuck - meaning I have to end both processes to...
My VEPro keeps quitting. I have the latest version installed, and I'm using Logic 10.4.2 as my DAW. I used to have a Mac mini quad as my slave and that used to run fine, and VEPro on there never seemed to quit. Now I have moved onto an iMac with more RAM and faster processor. But it seems to...
Hey guys n gals, since I've arrived in LA I had several composer friends ask me for help in setting up their composing rigs for using VEPro and / or general Cubase / system tips and tricks / training. So I thought, if there is a need for such things, why not just officially offer it. So here we...
Greetings! My name is Jason. I am a drummer and I love animals. I also have spent the the last twenty odd years making music. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out a way to share and give back, just a little bit, to the community I love being a part of so much. I lecture/teach...

Hi Vi Community,
For months now, I've been having this very annoying issue with Berlin Percussion (and now, it has recently happened with the Spitfire Symphonic Brass Library):
My workplace is set up such that there are two identical workstations, where each...
I think this has been mentioned before on the forum, but I can't seem to find it.
Is there a way to disable a channel in VEPro from my master if the VEPro template is on my Slave?
For example a specific CC message I can send from my track in Cubase to disable the channel on the VEPro slave?
Hi,
I have a template of 64 Midi and about a dozen audio tracks. It's slow to load and a bit slow to move around in, even when almost empty.
I want to host my Halion Symphonic Orchestra in VEPro. I only have the trial of VEPro for now. It seems it may not be a useful solution for me as I only...
In the following video, I’m going to show you how you can repurpose a spare computer to handle your VST libraries while keeping CPU power on your main machine by using VEPro 6:
Let me know if you have any question and I'll try my best to answer!
Hi VI-Controllers,
So I know there's a lot of debate with Logic and VEP and using either few instances with many instruments (with multi-timbral instruments) or using many instances with single instruments. I've been using Logic with single VEP instances and it all seems to work well and is...
So I got myself a Mac Mini 2.3ghz Quad unit. It's all setup. It has a manual IP. But the problem I'm having is it keeps losing connection to the master. I don't have a screen connected to it. BUt after 24hours I lose connection. I cant VNC or ping it. I then have to manually reboot it and then...
I've found a Mac Mini late 2012 model with a 2.5Ghz processor at a really good price. Wondering if it's worth using one of these as a slave for a mobile setup with my Macbook Pro late 2012 2.5Ghz. I'm gonna spec up the RAM to 16GB. But just wondering how one of these units will work. So it's...
I'm finally making the move over to Cubase from Logic, due to Cubase's better handling with multitimbral instruments. I'm going to be using VEP6 to build up my template and I was wondering is it better to use Rack or Instrument Tracks. And what's the benefit over the one over the other. I'm...
Hi VI-Controllers,
I've got a question about if you want to use multiple DAWs with VEP. So I'm using Logic and Cubase. But then there's the big debate on where Logic works better with single instances in VEP, while Cubase works better with less Instances and in some cases even just one big...
Hello everybody! :)
I've been searching for a way to select midi tracks and have them in numerical order in Cubase.
In VEPRO this is easily done by just like "Shift+Alt + click number of first channel".
Any help is greatly appreciated! :)
Hello,
Like the title says VEPRO is Superslow/totally freezes when connected with Cubase 9 (running Play template).
Anyone else experiencing this problem and have a solution?
I'm running one 6 i7 core machine with HWS and HOP, and another 8 AMD Ryzen core machine with HWB and HOW.
I posted this on the VSL Forums, but was hoping someone here might have an idea as well.
I am brand new to VEPro and need some help getting VEPro instances from my slave PC to appear in my DAW's plugin on my master PC. I've been scouring the web and the user manuals for hours without finding a...
I am just going to run this by you guys, in case I am doing something wrong:
I have 64GB of RAM, which I thought would be more than enough, however every time I open my VEPro template the RAM usage shoots up to 100% while loading all of the Play instances. All Kontakt instruments load...
I'm considering buying/building a slave machine to run Vienna Ensemble Pro in Windows.
I've been looking at https://pcpartpicker.com and I was wondering if anyone has any advice in this department?
I am on a bit of a tight budget. I'd like to build it for less than $1000 if possible. I'm...
I come on humble bended knee to the wise ones for their sage advice - I've recently entered the world of VEP and have discovered by familiar routing workflow in Cubase no longer holds water and am now clueless how to apply individual FX on a single track using VEP.
I used to use just Track...
Hello everyone! :)
As the title says I'm wondering were the "purge all instances of Kontakt"-button is?
If you like me have a big VEPRO template that is being modified slightly almost daily, the frustration of having to go through about 1000 tracks (some of you might have much more) just to...
Hi Guys,

Hi folks,
My apologies if this has been posted before...I looked but didn't find anything.
I have a question for the group regarding receiving midi cc data back to an iPad running Touch OSC:

I am transferring several of my setups that previously run in Logic into VePRO.
And LASS 2.5 has come with to me a handy Arc template setup that comes from the multi patches(see special).
It is setup so that in 5 x 5 (logic) multitimbral midi-tracks you have all available articulations and all...
Ideally to suit aesthetically, i can go up-to 15 meters of cable to place slave noisy PCs in another room, how much is the recommended cat6 cable length to not have toll on latency?
I shall have 3 slave PCs running in other room, connected to a switch in the same room and one cat6 cable will...
Crashes, crahes everywhere!
If I open Cubase 8 first then load VEPRO, then they don't connect.
If I load VEPRO, then open Cubase it just crashes and disappears.
It worked for a while when I first got it.
But then it started to crash here and there, and now it's just unusable.
I found that I can...
There seem to be two schools of thought in regards to adding effects to items within VEPro.
1. Add the effects individually within the VEPro mixer
2. Add the effects in the DAW to the entire VEPro mixer
I'm a new Cubase user, but when I was working in Logic I would route audio back from VEPro...
I try to figure out what is best: One VE for each instrument like A:
Or like this B:
In A there are only one midi port and 2 audio channels allocated each instance. All instruments returns on their own separate audio channels.
In B I have to have at least 2 midi ports (32 channels)...
Hello everyone,
I've outgrown my current computer - 4770k, 32GB ram, 2tb SSD filled with sample libraries- and I'm searching up and down the internet on how to build the new computer.
What I had in mind was a PC with 64GB DDR4 ram, but also have the possibilty of 128GB which I might need in the...
Hello everyone! :)
I'm about to upgrade my workstation with another computer and an audio interface (RME fireface UCX/ARC probably).
So my question is: is it possible to use two computers with only one audio interface?
