Vienna Ensemble Pro is a powerful network-based mixing and hosting application designed for both Mac and PC users. It enables the creation of multi-computer setups using a simple Ethernet connection, eliminating the need for additional MIDI or audio interfaces. Even when working on a single computer, its unique Preserve feature allows users to keep all plug-ins and samples loaded while switching projects, significantly enhancing workflow efficiency and saving valuable time during production.

This software supports Vienna's own sample players alongside a wide range of third-party VST and AU instruments and effects, offering stereo and surround mixing up to 7.1 channels with full parameter automation. Vienna Ensemble Pro 7 includes the extensive Epic Orchestra 2.0 Sample Pack, a 73 GB collection of orchestral sounds powered by the Vienna Synchron Player, providing a rich palette of instruments and articulations for immediate creative use. The application also features integrated FX plug-ins with sleek GUI displays, streamlined automation management, and real-time CPU and MIDI/audio activity monitoring for enhanced control and performance.

Additional features include cross-platform MIDI and audio LAN support, flexible instance and channel management, and compatibility with nearly all VST/AU plug-ins. The software offers advanced options like frozen and disabled channels to optimize memory use, channel grouping with linked parameter control, and dual architecture servers on Windows to bridge 32-bit and 64-bit plug-ins seamlessly. Its fast server discovery, improved saving speeds, and integrated articulation displays contribute to a smooth production experience. Vienna Ensemble Pro licenses are sold individually per computer, accommodating setups of any size with scalable licensing options.
