UVI Falcon 3

The post wasn't directed to you personally.

But my question was directed personally to everyone who installed succesfully Falcon 3.1 to Win.

With the size of sample libraries, it is incumbent on UVI to plan for users keeping libraries on multiple drives.

What's difficult in using the Preferences window?

Btw, if you're new to Falcon and feel overwhelmed by the look of the edit window, try switching off individual parts first. Doing so lets you stay focused on the parts you're working on. It's a bit more clickery at the beginning but it helps to avoid getting lost in Falcon's ecosystem.

This is not issue for me.
But you someone could as starters say,
why the Falcon gives a note "install the Tag library" although its already installed, that would the first step forward.

This note ” install the Tag library" without any instruction where this should be installed, if the location in UVI Portal is not the corret one, is typical UVI bullshit user instruction policy.

Thanks for the info - I thought I'd give it (falcon) a try ... but ' hey ' - there is no trial..
That's another BS from UVI I guess - money grab > on the top of the uvi list !!!

It´s hardly UVI´s fault if you are unable to keep stuff at a single location . . .

They do not... you can set multiple locations in Falcon... where is the problem??

[Trancit]

"It´s hardly UVI´s fault..". You didn't get the point.
UVI's responsibility is to give clear instructions of these most major issues. And "clear" doesn't mean here hidden somewhere in the 40 pages manual.

Hmmm, most users seemed to have figured out without getting any nervous breakdown or heart attack...
It seems UVI has done a pretty good job...
Tbh I have never seen anybody complaining about that before... there are for sure other points which could be improved but figuring out what goes to where... come on!!

Just subscribe to Sonic Pass for a month. You can trial the entire ecosystem.

I downloaded Tag Library in Portal, on Mac after download was finished, Portal extracted Rar file, checked file integrity and moved it to default UVI Soundbanks folder itself. I did not have to do this manually.

What bothered me was presets still appearing in preset browser even after corresponding soundbanks were removed. I had to manually reset database by deleting FalconV2.db file which Tech Support had failed to address.

I didn't say there was a problem. I just corrected what's-his-face.

You make it sound like 40 pages is a lot. I wish the manual was a lot bigger honestly.

I like this in principle, but the 3.1 browser still seems a bit buggy to me. When I open Falcon, I sometimes get a selection of libraries (everything starting with a P or after), or none at all. Also, in the 'old' file/library browser, now libraries show up twice - but not every single time I start Falcon. Sometimes it's just a few doubles, sometimes all, sometimes none.

Do I need to reset the db then? Or just wait until this is fixed in 3.1.1?

You or those given thumb-up to your comment, don’t seem to know what you are commenting.

After reading the Falcon manual now, in fact its 348 pages, I tend to agree that its too short.
In 348 pages UVI hasn’t been able to explain how to get the Tagging in use.

Or avoid the constant crashing in Win 10, Live 11.

As said, UVI bullsh*t instruction policy.
And their support seems to be hadles.

Yes, but this time I was searching information, not aesthetic experience.

I could not get the library to populate at all, even after installing the Tags. My library is stored under /Users/Shared/Uvi, and TagLibrary.ufs was present there.

It didn't work until I removed the soundbank location in Preference. Restarted Falcon. Added the soundbank location back and checked indexed and recursive, and then restarted Falcon again.
