"...Also, if I load the Philharmonik 2 as a standalone, all the sounds come after a long pause no matter if I play via screen piano keys or via usb connected keyboard. From SampleTank 3 it works normally."

I see this consistently, also.

I have set my library path in Miroslav Symphonik 2 to D:\MP2Lib.
If i now open Sampletank 3 it begins to scan D:\MP2Lib and after it finishes the Sampletank 3 Library is not available, because the library path in ST3 automatically gets set to the same library path as in Miroslav Symphonik 2. The only way around it seems to cancel scanning when i am starting Sampletank 3.

The Sampletank 3 and Miroslav 2 library path should be independent of eachother.


I moved the Miroslav Symphonik 2 libraries to the same place where others with SampleTank 3 are, but I agree with you. They should have their own library paths.

Cheers...

I've just seen this in the FAQs (ID 3677):
Miroslav 2 is designed to be an expansion library to the SampleTank 3 collection or to run by itself. If you do not have SampleTank 3 installed, a folder will be created for the sounds, as SampleTank 3 and Miroslav 2 share the same sounds path.

If you do not have SampleTank 3 installed, that is ok. The directory will be created for you under the SampleTank 3 name, or you can simply name a custom directory yourself.

Darkstar

is that a "concur" (same issue) or "interesting" (becasue it works for me)?

In any case, I would have thought that since more than a few foks have same issue with non-ECO pianos that IK would see it and release a new .pak file (or whatever problem is) by now becasue this is their new "Flagship" product and I would have thought FIRST instrument they would check after Violins would be the Piano. and they don't want rollout problems like this

Sounds like your buffer size is too large in your audio settings. If this isn't the case, let support know and they will troubleshoot directly with you.

Support and Development are aware of the issues occurring with the piano but I don't have an ETA on a fix at this time. I'll keep checking and see what's going on as I can.

Ok now I feel stupid, it was that buffer size (with wrong driver) but I didn't first check it as it worked within SampleTank 3 and in my DAW Cubase. Seems that the standalone program wasn't using my audio interface's ASIO driver by default and had DirectSound, the buffer size was pretty high because of that etc. Anyway, this problem is solved at least for me, thanks :)
And good to know that the other (more major..) problem with the Grand Piano sounds is being checked by the devs. as you wrote in that another post.

Cheers...

No need to feel stupid, just remember that a standalone program is not going to use the same audio settings as its plugin counterpart. I tend to check this first because when I use virtual instruments on my laptop quickly without hooking up a real audio interface, getting the buffer setting set reasonably using a built-in soundcard is "challenging" sometimes to say the least :)

Thank you. I moved all Miroslav Philharmonik 2 contents to the respective Sample Tank 3 library folders and after a rescan it works now.

However, there should be a possibility to have different folders for the Sample Tank Librarys. What if my hard drive is full and i like to install a new library and have to use another hard drive? I have to use another path then, right?

Do the sound installers for Miroslav 2 put the library in the Sampletank 3 in a separate folder or do the sounds go in the old Miroslav folder with the already existing Miroslav sounds? I am confused about the installation of the sounds. I have my Sampletank 3 library on a second hard drive. Should I install the Miroslav 2 library in Sampletank 3 first and then install Miroslav 2 and point it to the Sampletank folder? I just need a very precise direction on how to install the sound library!

"The Miroslav 2 Sound Content (1 of 16) installation failed. Unable to copy the instruments" error message


I'm getting the same error - multiple tries - it's not fixing itself. I put zip files in a "MP2" folder I created on the C drive and unzipped them there to get around the long filename issue. Copied extracted files back to my downloads folder and tried to run the sound installation part 1 from there - copying files to my D driver I use for sound storage (where I have sample tank sounds).

In every of the 16 sound installers simply choose your Sampletank 3 Library Folder as installation folder for the Miroslav 2 Library.
