hey,

logic X on OSX 10.10.5

I have an active window problem with Spire that's very annoying, other synths don't do this. Everytime I want to control spire I need to first click on the GUI window to activate it (the controls don't work when clicking first time)

Hi there,

as an exploration (I'm new to this) I'm trying to use the step sequencer on some factory preset.

I guess I tried everything but I can't figure out why the sequence doesn't even start.

Here is the preset in attachement - can someone please explain me what I'm missing ?

Fyi, the preset is not meant to be nice. It's just about exercising.

Thank you in advance everybody

I tried un/reinstalling it, but no difference.

It happens when I close and re-open spires gui a couple of times.

Any thoughts?

i posted this on another thread, but time to dive in to the troubleshooting thread:

installed 1.1 (logic X 10.2, on os x 10.11.2). some sounds will NOT play from the keyboard (except for a stray note here or there); they WILL play from a sequence already written. seems...weird. and LX crashed once, so far: Spire 1.1 was to blame.

anyone else experiencing notes not playing? i emailed reveal-sound support, just wondering who else is seeing this...

just purchased Spire and it does not work with FL Studio. The VST does not allow you to change presets without exiting the VST each time in order to hear the sound. In addition it freezes and the sound ring out without stopping. I followed the Buffer template they sent to me as a remedy to no prevail. This was not worth my time and effort and money. The product worked great a few years ago when I used it as a demo, now I purchased it and it is unusable. And yes I am not an amateur user, I am trained in the field of computers and I am a musician with over 500+ Vst's . If anyone out there has had these issues, let me know.

I installed Spire 1.1, I noticed cubase crashes sometimes out of nowhere since then.

Also when I select an instrument track with spire in it, it seems like it's triggering a note in spire (option "enable record on selected track" set on).

I like Spire a lot, but I notice it's not 100% stable with cubase unfortunately.

Im on cubase 8.0.3 64bits, windows 7 64 bits).

Did you send Reveal-Sound a support mail?

Hi,

It's now been a couple of weeks that I have heavily been playing with Spire v1.1.

Reveal Sound have really done a great job with the CPU optimizations

However I am having quite often some crashes (which didn't happen with v1.0.20), mainly when stopping/starting playback in my DAW (Ableton Live 9 on Win7) or when jumping between different parts while the sequencer is playing (in arrangement view).

I get either some loud blasts or Live freezing

Anyone having the same issues here?

Thanks,
GilJ.

Same problems in Reaper 5, Ableton live 9, Bigwig 1.3.5 , Logic 10.2.0 . Mac Os 10.10.5

Hi all.

In the past I bought many plugins and most of them were quite easy to install, and some of them were just messy. I just bought Spire and I just installed it. I have Windows 7 - 64 pro and FL studio 12. I have done everything by the book and when I open Spire in FL it open without problems. But the problem is that there is no sound at all. I do find the sound banks and I can load them in Spire, but no sound is heard. This is the first time ever I have this problem. I would be happy to get suggestions because I run out of ideas. I tried everything I can think of to solve this issue.

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to add that I now can see that Spire is crashing when I try to open it in FL. The GUI is there and it looks okay but FL throw me an error message. I used to have Spire as demo some time ago and I wonder if some old remaining files could cause this?

Why doesn't 1.1.1 vst replace 1.1 vst?
