Now as I observed the other day, I can play the sounds of Komplete Kontrol from my DAW, but the keyboard thinks its just a standard midi track so the lightguide or knobs do not display.Īs I said if I switch focus the the VEP server on the computer outside the DAW it comes alive and if I switch back into the DAW stays that way, but when I change track to a non KK instance in Logic it switches into Midi Mode and will not go back when focus is switched back to the VEP/KK track. In Logic added a VEP Server plugin and connected to this project (as usual method). Added an instance of Komplete Kontrol inside the VEP server rack and within that a Komplete Kontrol instrument.Ĥ. Opened up the VEP server application on my main DAW computer (Mac) basically connecting to VEP locally rather than on a slave computer for purposes of testing.Ģ.
CREATING A PATCH IN VIENNA ENSEMBLE PRO PRO
So I hooked up it again in Logic Pro X this way:ġ. I wondered if using the "experimental" midi port feature in VEP 6 might be the answer. So I was playing around with this again tonight, thinking if there was some other way. Its a pity they could not have found a way to have multis in KK. Now that is not too bad, but switching projects is a pain as VEP has to disconnect first which takes time then the KK plugins have to load back up. More worryingly for me with a large orchestral template having to load KK plugins many times adds to the load time as they take a few seconds more than a straight Kontakt plugin to load and multiplying that across many tracks means my template takes about 6-7 minutes to load. If I switch focus the the VEP server on the computer outside the DAW it comes alive and if I switch back into the DAW stays that way, but I do not think the controls will work inside the DAW I just think it gets stuck. I can play the sounds of Komplete Kontrol from my DAW if they are hosted using option 1, but the keyboard thinks its just a standard midi track so the lightguide or knobs do not display KK stuff. Hosting VEP inside Komplete Kontrol with Komplete Kontrol also hosted in VEP.Įven on the same Mac, no joy. Hosting VEP inside Komplete Kontrol with Kontakt in that.ģ. Well I have both and have tried various ways:Ģ.
