NEW DP9.1 and Vienna Ensemble Pro 6 YouTube Video

Post by Steve Steele »

It's nice that DP9.1 and VEP6 came out at the same time. Both are really good and stable. I ran them hard together for 24 hours straight and not a single crash. So I made a video about starting from scratch with an empty DP document. I set everything up, wrote about 20 bars of orchestral music, did some editing and finished. I explain everything as I go.

I tried a new method to condense an hour down to 20 minutes. Let me know if you still find the video helpful or if it's too fast. All I was trying to show was the process. That's really what the video is about. So the pace seemed ok. And you get to see enough of VEP6 to get an idea of what it feels like. I'll probably continue to use this style in future videos where it fits. The fast pace starts around 2:15.

Enjoy!

very useful. One can always slowdown :). Do you think that with the latest version of DP, running VEP 6 on the same machine is still advantageous?

This video works great. Very useful in getting an overview of your method of setting up and composing. Plus lots of great info apart from the VEP6 setup. As mentioned, you can slow down the YouTube video if need be (though it makes you sound drunk!).

I'm also curious if people are finding that DP 9.5's resource management scheme is making VEP non-hosted/single machine usage obsolete. I recently completed a few projects that were around the size of the project in this video, maybe a little larger, all within DP 9.5 with no problems whatsoever. Zero crashes for days and days. Record enabling and auditioning notes is slightly glitchy, but that's the only downside.
