Hi Everyone,
I have both MIR and Vienna Suite. I write larger orchestral works and while I love being able to position my instruments on the stage using MIR, I find that I typically prefer the final sound I can achieve with just the Vienna Suite. I find that MIR's sound is a bit to distant. I've tried moving the main microphone (and secondary microphone) almost on top of the orchestra and lowering the total reverb, but no matter what hall I choose or how I reposition and tweak, I find the Vienna Suite allows me to achieve a "closer" and more intimate sound and I end up turning off MIR and just using Vienna Suite.
Does anyone feel the same way?
I'm sure if I knew more of the technical aspects of MIR, I could better get to the final sound I want, but so far, my ears prefer the reverbs of Vienna Suite as opposed to MIR.
