It seems that there was a thread on this recently, but I'm unable to locate it now...
 
I have Rapture Pro working...in a separate micro host (Savihost) in 32 bit and 64 bit.  All the previously installed Rapture and Dim Pro content works...and some (perhaps a majority) of the new Rapture Pro content works.
 
However...
 
There's still a large number of patches that don't produce any sound.  In particular, most of the content under "Orchestral Stacks" and "Woodwinds".  Oddly enough, the very large patches that require 64 bit do seem to work.
 
Where is the thread that addressed this?
 
Thanks!

This bit (http://forum.cakewalk.com.m.aspx?m=3213591&p=1) about the error logs could be helpful.  I'll check this out when I get back to my studio machine.
 
I think I have the registry paths problems solved (http://forum.cakewalk.com...registry-m3235502.aspx), but then again, what's in the error logs might prove that stuff isn't quite so "solved" yet.
 
Ah...
http://forum.cakewalk.com...inberger-m3235517.aspx
...this might be what it was that I saw before.  I'll have to dig into it more deeply back in the studio.
 
By the way...there are some new "organ" patches somewhere in the new content that show up monophonic.  I know of very few monophonic organs, which leads me to believe that the patches are makin' noise...but they're not working as designed.  If I were a really wise guy, I would have written down the names of the patches in question...but again...I'm not in front of my studio machine.

So, I checked out these patches. It appears that some of them produces sound in limited octave range(s).

Somewhat discussed here:
http://forum.cakewalk.com/Rapture-Pro-Element-Note-Range-Unions-Outliers-and-Sample-Keyboard-Display-m3221407.aspx
... so yes, ensure you are within the range covered.
 
... but the main reason for no sound is likely that it can't find the multisample(s) ... which will be flagged in the logfile ... and can be remedied through links/junctions/copies (if not addressed through patch release).

I inspected the error logs after loading Orchestral Stacks/Accented Trem Huge.  This is a patch that is new to Rapture Pro, but uses legacy Dimension Pro multisamples.  As such, you would think that at least one of the places it would look is in the legacy path for Dimension Pro.
 
It doesn’t.
 
One of the sample files it’s looking for is…
 
bsf9tmoe1.wav
 
…which is located under the Dimension Pro multisamples path under…
 
garritan pocket orchestra\section strings\full strgs ks combo samples
 
It appears that Rapture Pro searches in four different places…
 
sample pool path:
C:\Music\Applications\Cakewalk\SonarData\Rapture Pro\Sample Pool\
 
SFZ path:
f:\music\plugins\appspecificdata\cakewalk\dimension pro\rapture pro\multisamples\dimension combo textures\
 
flac:
f:\music\plugins\appspecificdata\cakewalk\dimension pro\rapture pro\multisamples
 
And a path based on the location of the original Dim Pro content
f:\music\plugins\appspecificdata\cakewalk\dimension pro\rapture pro\multisamples\
 
It appears that it never occurs to RapPro to look in the original content directory for multisamples that were in the original content.
 
While I suppose it’s entirely possible to mitigate this by using hacks like mklink and such…I would think that having RapPro use the registry legacy paths as part of its search strategy would be far preferable to having users jump through flaming hoops to get content to work.

When I loaded the program it picked up the samples from the RPro path. I did a full RPro install. RPro does have legacy paths but they appear to be used for legacy programs only. Since RPro is a superset of DPro, it might be easier to point the DPro multisample path to the RPro multisample path and use it as the master set of samples rather than relying on the legacy install.

I solved the "Orchestral Stacks" problem with...
 
cd "f:\music\plugins\appspecificdata\cakewalk\dimension pro\rapture pro\multisamples" mklink /J "Garritan Pocket Orchestra" "f:\music\plugins\appspecificdata\cakewalk\dimension pro\multisamples\Garritan Pocket Orchestra"
 
...so I did a directory redirect to a text file (dir >mlink.bat) of the dim pro multisamples directory to get all the subdirectory names.  Then edited the file and created an ad hoc macro to create a batch file that looks like this...

Well...maybe you didn't want to see that much detail...but it should make everything in the Dim Pro multisamples directory visible in Rap Pro.
 
Ooops!  All those mlink's should have been mklink.

I didn't have to do all that Dan. I'll have a closer look in the morning ... but something doesn't strike as quite right with your previous 2 posts. Your Rapture Pro multisamples shouldn't be sitting under a DimPro structure. If it works for ya great ... but it's confusing at best. Other peoples structures are likely not the same.

That wasn't my choice.  That's what the Rapture Pro installer decided to do to me.  See post #14 of this thread...

I will fully assent that this is confusing.  However...there is no registry entry for dim/rap/pro on my system that contains this path...so it must be something that makes sense to Rapture Pro internally.  Furthermore, lacking a registry reference, I don't know of a way to correct it without breaking all the Rapture Pro content.
