Yup, 

Going on 3 years now. It might be time for VSL to upgrade this forum. Just check out the emojis we have to choose from. 

 LOL!

Great! Thanks for that.

Those typos must have been due to me trying to rename things to get them to load properly. I had assumed Roles were assigned based on channel not based on name. Now that I understand that, I should be okay.

Hi,

Thanks for answering my questions.

Here is a video showing the Role presets not loading when they should be.

Cheers,

I am having difficulty getting Roles to load correctly. After loading a Venue preset, what causes an instrument to  be grey in the list on the right in the Role window? And what causes the * in the instrument name after a Venue preset is loaded? 

And there is some weird graphics glitch going on as well. See pic.

(Deleted by user)

It doesn't matter what colour the instrument is, the font will be white. This restricts greatly our colour selection choice to dark colours in order to see the name of the instrument properly.

And the selected instruments label should DEFINITELY come to the front of any surrounding labels. At the moment there isn't any particular system. See GIF

The little white highlight that the selected instrument currently has is completely insufficient and easily gets lost with all the other small white things on the screen

In a nut shell, lots and lots of improvements need to be made to the graphics of this software.

Hi,

It came to my attention that the way colourizing works with labelling in MIR is different to the way it works in VEP. 

In VEP if the colour is too bright the label will have black font and vice versa. In MIR the font stays white even with very light colours making it very hard to read. See pic.

I understand that dark font is reserved for the selected instrument but don't see why the selected instrument's magic eye can't pulse bright yellow or maybe have ball or object orbiting it or some other highly visible graphic of some description.  The little white highlight that the selected instrument currently has is completely insufficient and easily gets lost with all the other small white things on the screen. BTW my eye sight is fine.

And the MIDI activity should be much much brighter.

This works really well. 

I am still getting many many crashes with MIR Pro 3D.

If MIR is still active in the task bar after closing a VEP project that uses MIR, when opening a new VEP project that uses MIR, it will crash.

Also, clicking on the preferences or the settings cog in the top left while MIR is active in VEP will cause it to crash.

I am on Windows 10 Using the latest versions of VEP and MIR.

Hi,

Yes, I discovered the channel height toggle. So now my workflow is much faster with MIR. :) 

One question, what purpose does dragging channel(s) onto the stage area of the UI serve?. See GIF.

I am really enjoying the sound of MIR Pro 3D. Especially the latest RoomPack 7.

However, the UI is a bit of a mess IMHO. For instance. If I am working in Cubase and would like to change some settings in MIR for a particular instrument, to focus MIR Pro on that instrument (because I actually have over 100 instruments) I must do the following:

Open VEP, select the correct Instance, navigate to the correct channel, click on the MIR Pro plugin to bring up the MIR pro UI, click on the 'Focus' button then open MIR Pro 3D from the task bar. Way too many steps!!

I have tried work arounds with all the features of Bome MTP. But due to the lack of a search field in MIR I am unable to overcome this cumbersome part of my day to day workflow. 

A solution might be to allow narrow channel heights on the left side. This would allow more than 12 instruments to be visible at any one time without the need to scroll. Or a search field.

Cheers,

Yeah wow! 7000 MB/sec. That's fast. I doubt I would need that much data per sec for what I am doing. But my mobo does support M2 PCIe NVMe ssd.'s so I might check that out. 

Cheeers!

My SSD's are reading at around 500 MB/sec.

Howdeee!,

Cheeers!

Hi,

What would be the best settings in VI Pro for the aforementioned CPU?.

I was getting dropouts so I upped the Streaming Thread to 8. Should I go 16 maybe?. I kept the Mixing threads on 1, upped the Pre-allocated Voices 1024, Maximum Voices to 4096 and Instance voices to 1024. Should I just go all out and set everything to max or......?

These setting fixed the drop-outs but with VI Pro being a 2013ish piece of software maybe today's CPU's can handle its maximum settings.

Thanks for any help,

Wow! no bites? (pun intended)

Spoiler? Anyone?

Thanks.

I'm going to step out and grab a burger with some salsa now.

 What venue is that?!!!

Yes it does. But on a stage with Dimension Strings, all the VI woods, brass, percussion and choirs, and combined with my tendency to select lighter colours, it is quite hard to see. Also, The label of the selected instrument does not get priority over the surrounding instruments. It is often obscured by other labels.

Hi,

Really enjoying using MIR Pro 3D here.

A couple of ideas I had were brighter labels for selected instruments and more visible magic eye MIDI activity. And a 'Hide' function that hides all instruments within a certain proximity to the selected instrument. As selecting those tiny little squares can get very tricky. Also, a global 'Hide Stereo Width' would be nice. It would definitely clean up a cluttered stage. I know I should use the small UI more but it kind of takes the joy out of using MIR TBH.

That would be up t the user to place the rendered patch in a folder corresponding to the project.

Hi,

I would really like to see the stretch function work. I just tried stretching a detache patch by a very small amount in Elite Strings with 5 mics enabled and a four note chord maxes my pc out. Please VSL, add a render function.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply,

I will check out that video for sure.

Hi,

There is very little in the manual about this feature.

How do I create a new Instrument Role Preset for an instrument in a venue and save it with the Venue Preset?. 

I add an instrument, choose the instrument profile, position the instrument etc. But at no point does a disk icon appear in the Roles list allowing me to save my work as an Instrument Preset. There is only an ' (Empty - Drag in Role Preset from Browser). If I save Venue Preset in the User Preset list on the left, the new slot is still empty The venue I am using is Baumgartner Steinhofkirche.

Hi,

After a long session, and then shutting down Cubase, VEP maintains 'Very High' power usage. This was not the case with the eLicencer version. It would immediately go to 'Very Low'. Which would allow me to keep my template loaded. Windows 10

Hi,

Regarding the colours, I now realise that I need to save them as part of the Venue preset in MIR Pro 3D. Because MIR's colours seem to be overriding VEP's colours.

I have sent a project file to VSL support which is a) not remembering the wet signal routing and b) the wet signal routing is causing 400+dB (yes 400!) of distorted audio.

Here are some links to videos demonstrating the issues. The first is VEP not remembering wet signal routing. The second is the 400dB distortion.
