SETTING UP VDL WITH SIBELIUS AND FINALE

I HAVE JUST GOTTEN A COPY A SIBELIUS 5 AND WANT TO MAKE SURE ITS' SETUP CORRECTLY. I ALREADY HAVE VDL WORKING WITH FINALE 2007C. IS THERE ANYTHING I NEED TO REINSTALL, REMOVE, COPY, ETC. I DON'T WANT TO MESS ANYTHING UP WITH EITHER PROGRAMS.

THANKS

Easy with the caps lock there. Sheesh!

So you have Finale 2007 already, now you're adding Sibelius 5? This shouldn't affect anything in your pre-existing setup. The one thing you might need to do is *copy* the KontaktPlayer2.dll file into the Sibelius>VST Plugins folder. This will ensure that Sibelius actually recognizes Kontakt Player 2 as a plugin which you can use within the program.

I would recommend you update to the latest version of Sibelius 5 (5.2.5) from the Sibelius website, and be sure to use the [url=https://www.tapspace.com/Sibelius-Virtual-Drumline-Template-525-pr-75.html]Tapspace/VDL/Sibelius 5.2.5 template[/url]. Also, be sure to carefully go through all the [url=https://www.tapspace.com/pages.php?pageid=29]tutorials[/url] on using these things together. Most of your questions should be answered there, plus there are even more details in the README file that comes with the template.

Ha.
We don't like to yell here at the Tapspace forum :-)
Sorry guys. Wrote that at my work computer. I have to leave the caps lock on for some of the database programs I use.
