vArranger Forums

Sorted - after adding the necessary files into the laptop I went back to the downloads for the purchased latest version and added the file License.reg onto the laptop - then after the activation of that file on the laptop I can now use vArranger when I simply plug the USB 'key' on either the laptop or PC.   

I have the latest vArranger version installed on my PC with it's USB dongle, I found trying to run vArranger with cuebase simultaneously created too many clashes with midi ins/outs etc, so I tried installing vArranger on a laptop with a midi interface to keep vArranger isolated from the PC, I created a new folder on the laptop with all the data from the USB dongle on it, and plugged the USB dongle into the laptop so the vArranger software would 'see it' - when trying to exe vArranger from the USB dongle I get a message 'this software cannot be run without a license key' - unless I'm missing something, the feature of vArranger was with it's USB dongle and installed files you can use any device to use vArranger on any PC/laptop ?     

Thanks Dan, appreciated.

Ich meine hier mit den Sounds vom Dan.Mein Halion7 läuft ja gut und stabil mit Neuem VST3.Leider läßt sich das nicht speichern mit Rechter Hand.vArranger2 läßt das speichern Rechte Hand zu.Bei Neustart steht es da nur geschrieben Sound aber tot.Dan gibt es eine Lösung?

The nice thing now with 2.1.20 The styles from Genos2 play cleaner. I got the 800 styles in advance.
I'm talking about the sounds from Dan. My Halion7 runs well and stably with the new VST3. Unfortunately, you can't save it with the right hand. vArranger2 allows you to save it with the right hand is there a solution?

Umm - the 'latest' version of vArranger 2 is only V1.20.02 - where did you get 2.1.20 from ??

Paid for vArranger2 version 1.20.02 and received it - first problems are in the directions for installation, I am told to 'replace the old program with this new one, at the exact same place'- now, when you see that, you assume you get a installation location choice - nope, it 'auto installed' to where ever it liked (?) - 'fine', I located and opened the newly installed vArranger2 V 1.20.02 at the location 'it' decided to be - all my previous loaded files were missing, maybe to be expected when no installation target over write location option was provided - but also in this 'new' version, the RAM option is non-functional, as is the 'CPU' status non-functional.

             

May I ask where did you get the Genos2 styles ? - much appreciated. 

Sorry Dan, I'm talking about the Fantom 06 - not the FA-06 - which yes, ironically the 'scaled down' FA-06 compared to the 06 would probably not only have GM2 capability but a more popular/user friendly linear sequencer as well.
Two strikes for the Fantom 06 !!

Recently got a Roland Fantom 06, been trying to play GM and/or GM2 midi files on it, the idea being I could replace my Roland BK-7m with better sounds in the Fantom 06 to play from vArranger (BK-7m currently works fine doing that with it's factory arranger styles in vArranger).
Much to my amazement/anger it appears the Fantom 06 does not have GM/GM2 capability ! - this means it won't play any arranger songs, including Rolands, using the most common universal midi format in the world !!
Have contacted Roland for what it's worth.

On a different note, has anyone had any success in locating/downloading factory styles of arrangers ? - i.e. - the Roland E-A7, Yamaha Genos/Genos2, etc. ?       

Quote from: himhim1988 on January 30, 2024, 06:37:02 AMNow have Genos 2

Are you going to explain how and where from, or just play games ?

Where can you find the Genos2 styles ?

Can I ask where did you get these styles from ? - would love to check them out !

For the vArranger I'm thinking of getting the roland integra 7 sound module OR the roland FA-06 keyboard which claims to be able to work as a sound module as well, it also has a built in user friendly multi track sequencer that (in theory) I can import the vArranger midi file into it then loop add more tracks using the FA-06 internal sounds.
I currently am using cubase 9.5 (with a roland Bk7m as the sound module) but am shy of cubase's sequencer (no experience with it) when it comes to looping, however the possible game changer to force me to learn is the integra 7's 6000 sounds capacity, but I'm not sure of the compatibility of the roland integra 7 and the i.e. roland BK7m arranger files.

p.s. - I don't know if I am missing something but it would have been great to be able to trigger a variation/fill in etc. on a specific beat in a measure as opposed to currently being limited to only the first beat of a measure.   

Thanks ! - 'Song chords' alone is a time and mental saviour for it's ease of composition, no more having to 'fine tune' chords to land on bars to avoid mis-triggers.
I'm going to see what's involved in using it to i.e. chord trigger the combis in my kronos.

In song chords What exactly does the notification 'no ending found' mean when trying to export song chords to midi file using the 'export to midi file' function ? 

I'm currently running version 1.19.13 of vArranmger2 - how can I get the latest version download ?

Thanks, sorted, I think it was a case of the anti-virus 'snatching' it to place in it's suspect virus prison when it wasn't, I did also use the same USB stick on my laptop for just a night but it was clean.         

This is weird - the downloaded aVarranger was working fine on it's dedicated USB stick then it suddenly dropped the start up link on it, gone ! - I don't know why that only disappeared. 

Thanks, I have installed LoopBe30 version, expanded it to eight 'slots', but it's annoying that the operational instructions are near to nothing - i.e. - I now have a selection of from one to eight midi inputs and outputs on devices, but 'how' do I configure each one with LoopBe30 ? - what do I assign each individual input and output on each device to ??

I can't run vArranger with cubase 12 at the same time - if I start cubase first I can see the midi data from my controller keyboard and can record it onto cubase etc, however when I start up vArranger as well vArranger won't respond to the same controller keyboard and I get the familiar warning from vArranger 'short on memory' etc. (you know what I mean), when I reboot windows and I start vArranger first all is good, I can play chords etc. into it from my controller keyboard but when I start up cubase 12 as well it has no indication of any midi inputs from same controller keyboard even though it is patched in as well into cubase.
It sounds like the two software programs are seriously clashing with each other when running simultaneously.   

Quote from: oresteb on January 31, 2023, 03:59:39 PMYes Dan, I want use my keyboard (Yamaha psr sx700) to generating the original sounds of yamaha styles.
As seen in VA tutorial on youtube, the choice of style and input of chords are more easy in VA than in my keyboard.
If the INS file it's all that I need, I will buy your sw.
Thanks

Very first post here, so scuse clumsiness ! - what functi0n does the INS have ? - how is it applied in vArranger ? - BTW my main sound source will be a yamaha MODX, which is working nicely so far on some basic old yamaha arranger styles I (fortunately) kept.
