    Posted: 01 Sep 2008 at 2:19pm
Just bought the book.  Great!  In the Preface you recommend downloading R2 and provide a link.  The link no longer words and user is directed to the SAP site.
I registered there and was presented with a list of downloads, but don't see the original Release 2.  Lots of Hot fixes and Service Packs up to 4.  If I install SP 4 I assume it contains everything I need, but hoped for confirmation.
Have you or anyone tried this on the original XI version?

Download Ilya Efimov Nylon Guitar -

You must purchase the library from the official Ilya Efimov website or an authorized reseller (like Best Service or Native Instruments). Upon purchase, you are usually given a serial number and access to a dedicated download link.

One of the tell-tale signs of a cheap guitar VST is the lack of smooth transitions between notes. Ilya Efimov Nylon Guitar features a comprehensive legato system. When you play a melody line, the library automatically detects intervals and triggers realistic hammer-on, pull-off, and slide samples. This makes solo lines flow with a fluidity that is rare in the virtual world.

Do not play block chords. The legato scripting shines on single-note lines. Use the mod wheel (CC1) to control dynamics. Play softly for a warm, round tone; play hard for a aggressive, almost flamenco-like snap.

Draw in your chord changes. Use the Strum Engine’s "Speed" parameter to control how fast the pick traverses the strings. For a realistic human feel, automate the "Noise" slider—add a little fret noise at the start of a phrase.

Before discussing the download, one must understand the pedigree. Ilya Efimov is a Russian sound designer known for an obsessive level of detail. Unlike libraries that rely on generic sample mapping, Efimov's team typically records each fret of each string, often with multiple right-hand positions (tasto, ponticello, normale).

The Nylon Guitar library is specifically revered for two key features:

If you are downloading this library, you are likely moving away from the flat, lifeless strums of entry-level ROMplers and entering the world of deep sample editing.

You may wonder if you should still download Ilya Efimov Nylon Guitar when alternatives exist. Let’s compare:

| Feature | Ilya Efimov Nylon | Native Instruments Session Guitarist (Picked Nylon) | Orange Tree Samples (Evolution Classical) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Strumming Engine | Advanced auto-detection | Pre-built phrases only | Customizable pattern maker | | Fret Noise Realism | Excellent (variable) | Good | Excellent | | CPU Usage | Moderate | Low | High | | Learning Curve | Medium | Easy | Steep | | Price | $$ | $ (often on sale) | $$$ |

Verdict: The Ilya Efimov Nylon Guitar sits in the sweet spot. It is more flexible than NI’s phrase-based player but less overwhelming than Orange Tree’s deep scripting. For pop, bossa nova, flamenco, and film scoring, it is the best choice.

To download Ilya Efimov Nylon Guitar is an investment in your sound design and composition quality. No free soundfont or generic ROMpler can replicate the nuance of this library’s round-robin samples, realistic release triggers, and intelligent strum logic. download ilya efimov nylon guitar

Action steps for today:

Do not risk your studio’s security with cracked versions. The $119 price tag is a bargain for a virtual guitarist that will serve you for a decade of productions. Click the link, complete your purchase, and start creating the warm, organic nylon sounds your tracks deserve.

I will give it a try.  I didn't think it was clear, either.  I never saw the plain old XI R2.  I think SP2 is the first one available, but I will check again.  I did see the dreaded incremental.  I thought I would try SP3 first since hopefully, it will contain everything up to that point.  Will let you know.  Thanks!

I downloaded and installed R2 and then downloaded and installed SP3 and SP4 from SAP site.  Reporting back as requested.

I am having one issue.  When I open the app or any report not stored in the Workbench, Windows Installer comes up and then I get a Wait While XI configures R2.  This takes 10 minutes and I get java prompt pop ups with java.exe running in a window.
 
Does anyone know how to fix this?
 
Sure would appreciate.
Also, downloaded your training reports for the book, Brian.  Missing Chapter 10.  Is there one or did I lose it somehow?
 
Thanks again.

I found the download of R2 with SP2 here: http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/service_packs/crxir2.asp. The zip file is 1.03 gigs. It sounds like I should hold off on installing SP3 and SP4.

I am going to uninstall SP4 and see what happens.   If it continues, I will uninstall SP3.
It is very annoying!
 
If anyone is successful getting rid of the issue, please post and I will do the same.

I just installed R2 with SP2 and I've been getting the Windows installer problem. Once I get Crystal Reports open, I can open anything I need to, but the installer wants me to do nothing else while it's doing its thing.

I had this problem when I was writing the XI book. The only way I got rid of it was to uninstall CR XI from my computer and then install the R2 download as a clean install. It is a full install and doesn't need XI to be on your computer beforehand. Then the installer nightmare went away.  download ilya efimov nylon guitar
