Please find after a message I post on VSL forum ! VSL is annouced to work with the EXS 24 MK II later this week Hello Herb Before to buy VSL I wanted to see it working. My doubts where true ! Yesterday I had a demo of VSL in Paris with a Giga Sampler PC connected to a keyboard. - 1st to say the sounds I heard ( a very few, but they where impressive). But what I was told and what I have seen disappointed me a lot :shock: I own a G4 533 MP 1 GB / 45+85 GB a 75GB ATA Raid 0, one MOTU system including a 24i + 2048 MKII + 1296, 3x8X16 Midi ports ; a Radeon 8500 + 2x22" Iiyama ; Logic control ..... On that MAC I can play simultaneous 64 stereo track with 24 reverbs ! I was told : - You cannot use your MAC - You need one or 2 PC with gigastudio; one PC costing 7500 Euro (150 GB HD + VSL) What I have seen : 1st you load an instrument and then you must load a performance ! that could be done in one go ! You must load a performance with each instrument ! You must decide Legato, Repetition or Alternation ! Some sounds are in the performance set some are in the cube set ! I asked to see midi files ! not possible ! that is very strange ! Having to deal with 3 MAC /PC it is not playing music any more it is directing a chemical factory ! What I would like to see : Draw a score line like in : http://vsl.co.at/index?http://vsl.co.at/news/product_news.htm?cmsqflag=1&cms scheme=ie_mac Chose an instrument ; and the computer does the rest. You must rewiew your copy, try to think like a musician not like a computer user !
