Show me a screenshot of the 2 missing files, and make sure you tell me exactly which instrument is asking for the missing samples, and I'll get to it.

Hi AKJ.

Ok, so I might have missed or forgotten exactly what the TVEC 3 issue was in the woods during the melé of my having to move, break down the studio, and rebuild it from scratch. So gimme the list, and I'll do the best I can!

you can find some examples of the Diamond English Horn here (I just created a very simple midi file, not using any keyswitches; included reverb was deactivated with all examples, I used a convolution reverb vst instead):

http://www.power-xs.net/download/eh_vpro.mp3

(This is the original version included in Diamond, and it sounds imo quite good. I just loaded the patch as it comes, no settings tweaked)

http://www.power-xs.net/download/eh_tvec3_intervalive_on.mp3

(In this example I loaded the tvec3 version of the English Horn. I can here a glitch which is most likely created by intervalive)

http://www.power-xs.net/download/eh_tvec3_intervalive_off.mp 3

(Here, I deactovated intervalive and the glitch was gone. But soundwise in comparison to the vpro-version imo: night and day. the clear winner is the original patch)

http://www.power-xs.net/download/eh_tvec3_intervalive_off2.m p3

(Here I tried if I could achieve by tweaking the tvec3-patch the same sound as in the vpro-example - but failed)

I really wonder how much better the original patch sounds. Maybe, I am doing something wrong, but it seems that (at least out of the box) tvec3 is not always good. So it's great that we also have the original patches.

cheers, akj

Woodwinds were fixed back in Dec. unless I missed an additional issue mentioned. Go to http://www.kirkhunterstudios.com/update.html and scroll down to 12/10/2011.

Hi Kirk,

That was a typo actually it's more like 148 files. Here's 2 screens shots
from when I load Cellos from CS2.







If I click "skip missing the patch still loads". Also it only happen when first loading. I have a feeling the missing files are unrelated to CS2.

Cheers

Hi Kirk,

it's good to hear from you. Good luck with your new studio. The issue with the TVEC3 woodwinds was:
a) a sound quality much worse than with the original patches
b) the referencing of trumpet sounds in the TVEC3 patches (maybe one of the causes for a)

I even posted an example.

cheers, akj

Ok, do you have the following folders in your CS2 parent folder?:

vcs hpc half
vcs hpc quarter

Hi Kirk,

Thanks for the hint. It seems I hadn't unzipped those two folders during the original install which is why they weren't showing up. All is fine now

Thanks
Kraznet

I'm having difficulty getting Diamond strings to synchronize with my song. There's delay, I guess, because of the fast bpm of 163. Accent is set to 127, and so on, and staccato is on too. Are there any other ways to increase accuracy?

It's not really a software issue or delay (I was just trying to describe it.) I'm attempting to create a fast=paced song, but the violin can't keep up with the tempo, as if it were sloppily played.

I'm attempting to assign the violins to some of the baselines played later in this test file (at higher octaves):

My first instinct would be to decrease the release time, but this may sacrifice realism, am I correct?

EDIT: Increasing the release time knob actually helped...not much though. That's interesting.
