Issues with Sonivox instruments?
Has anyone had performance issues with Sonivox AAX virtual instruments in instrument tracks?
I am running PT 12.5.2 on Windows 8.1 and having problems with two Sonivox AAX VIs on instrument tracks ("Wobble 2" and "Taylor Acoustic Guitar"). Since these are the only Sonivox VI's I have, I might assume that the problem is with all Sonivox VIs? I notice that these virtual instruments do not reliably produce audio output on instrument tracks. I have found a few tedious workarounds. For example, if the MIDI clip is selected, then audio output will be produced. Or (in recording) if a blank MIDI clip is put down first, then audio output will be produced in "MIDI merge" mode. |

Solved: Turn off the "loop play" function and Sonivox instruments function normally.

Re: Issues with Sonivox instruments?
Yes same issues with the Orchestral Companion plugs i bought the other day.
VI outputs sound fine with the transport not running.....with the transport running either recording or simple playback (recording input engaged) not producing sound correctly. I emailed their support.....spoiler alert....was not impressed with them. (but i like the plugin, sounds great) Hi J, Thank you for reaching out to us. I appreciate the opportunity to assist you! If you have additional questions or concerns, or if the information we provided today does not help completely resolve your inquiry, please let me know! I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue. It seems like the Sonivox plug-in is working pretty smoothly, as it is generating sounds through Protools. As for the playback. It sounds to me like it may be something going on with Protools, and my recommendation would be to contact Avid for further support. For additional assistance, or to re-open your case, just respond to this email with your case number 1130225 in the subject line. I'll be glad to help!

Re: Issues with Sonivox instruments?
Same problem here, thanks for the workaround!
Seems to be a simple issue, no fix for months now...

Anyhow, looks like a company to avoid. Shame because agreed, the sounds are good. Stephen

Re: Issues with Sonivox instruments?
Discovered this issue (after MUCH frustration) when I first purchased their string instrument more than a YEAR ago. Their support was notified at the time and there has been no update or solution other than to work with Loop-play off and committing or freezing to use loop-play. REALLY frustrating that a company would ignore such a glaring problem for so long.

Re: Issues with Sonivox instruments?
I got pretty much the same response. Also, someone shared the loop play workaround here in another thread months ago, it works but still this is a serious bug that happen on all Sonivox VIs I've tried (and won't buy for sure).

Re: Issues with Sonivox instruments?
Yes it's a bummer, but what's worse is I like the sounds !!!
So I'm stuck with the bug, but at least I like the product....
