Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the quick reply on this.
I have downloaded the sound set and tried opening it. I put the file in my Sibelius folder in Users/me/AppData/Roaming/SibeliusSoftware/Sibelius6/PlaybackConfigurations
I am able to load the sound set in my active devices under Kontakt 3 but I am lost as to where to go from here. In the Sound Set column under Active devices I see only (none) listed and The LA sound set is not an option.
I am wondering how to do this.
I am very new to the whole sound set thing so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again
Drew
You seem to be blurring soundsets and devices. Look at the Kontakt 3 dropdown list that currently shows (none). Devices are players. Soundsets and libraries are played.

I think you need to put the soundset file in Users/me/AppData/Roaming/SibeliusSoftware/Sibelius6/Sounds. That should make it appear in the Soundset dropdown in Active Devices.

I very well may be but I am still confused here.
There are no other options in the dropdown other than (none)
There is no option for LA Scoring Strings in the available devices list.
I am using Kontakt 3.5
I have put the LA Scoring Strings.xml file in the following three places in hopes that Sibelius would recognize it.
If you're really using paths that have no spaces in them, Drew, then that could explain it. You need to make sure you are using the correct path, which would be:
Thanks for the replies everyone.
Still no luck.
The file was is in the path
C:\Users\[my username]\AppData\Roaming\Sibelius Software\Sibelius 6\Sounds
but, I should point out. The folder for "Sounds" did not exist so I manually created one.
Could this be the problem and does anyone have any suggestions of where to go from here?
Drew, I suggest you email my colleague Sam Butler directly (sam.butler@avid.com). He has LASS installed and working with Kontakt 3.5 and should be able to point you in the right direction. Sorry that I can't help further!
I believe Sibelius has pulled their LASS sound set due to some features in the library that weren't readily usable with the library out-of-the-box.
I've been working with audiobro the past several months and we will be releasing a sound set as well as a custom Sibelius version of all the LASS patches.
audiobro is implementing a new and more user friendly download/delivery system which along with development of other products has led to a delay in the sound set release.
There is still no definitive release date set, but Andrew K assures me we are getting very close. You can watch the Sound Set Project website for more news as it becomes available http://soundsets.jonathanloving.com
