The difference between Vienna Ensemble and Vienna Ensemble PRO
Vienna Ensemble is designed for local use on one machine.
Vienna Ensemble PRO incorporates the first all-in-one MIDI and audio LAN solution that works universally on
Macs and PCs and lets you integrate third-party plug-ins. To integrate your Slave Computer in your network, all you
need is a working Gigabit connection. No soundcard or MIDI Interface is needed on your Vienna Ensemble PRO
Slave Computer!
The transition from Vienna Ensemble to Vienna Ensemble PRO is very smooth. You can order a free Demo
License of Vienna Ensemble PRO to find out more from www.vsl.co.at.
OVERVIEW: Main advantages of Vienna Ensemble PRO over Vienna Ensemble:
–
Preserve keeps your samples loaded while switching between different sequencer projects
–
MIDI and Audio is sent over LAN, no additional interfaces necessary
–
You can integrate RAM hungry 3rd party plug-ins like Kontakt, Spectrasonics Omnisphere or East
West's PLAY and benefit from the Preserve feature, even on multiple computers!

articulations from our famous Vienna Instruments Collections.
