I ordered one around 3 weeks ago or so. Havn't heard anything yet, so I think they're shipping slow at the moment. However, the leap motion with combined with some connections through some app like Cycling 74 - Max, may be possible. I think it's genius for daw users if we can write apps for it.

Any news on the ipad app?! :)

Nope, its an AMD FX 8-core processor, I believe its the 'FX Series 8120 Black Edition 8 Core' and the new Goniometer works fine as well. Just the reverbs.

Hello guys and VSL team, I'm having into a little issue with the Vienna Suite reverb plugins. Basically I have 4 audio workstations, 1 master and 3 slaves hooked up together through VE pro. All Vienna Suite plugins are installed on the slave machines . For some strange reason, on one of the slave machines both the VS Hybrid and the convolution reverb are not showing up in VE pro. I tried reinstalling them of course, but no luck. I know the plugins path in VE pro is set correctly since the rest of the VS plugins do show up and work just fine. Any ideas? Cheers!!

Oh God, I'm speechless! I would love to try out the beta. Thanks so much VSL. ... So when shall we expect to try the beta?! Can't wait :)

Awesome! Thanks Paul. :)

Ok, basically I had installer v609 saved on an external drive so I thought I should give it a try. I uninstalled the latest version, installed a previous version a worked flawlessly like ever before. Therfore I'm assuming its some sort of issue with the latest version. I guess for now you should work with the version before the current. It's rock stable.

Same problem here mate. I have just uninstalled the latest version of Vienna imperial, and gonna try an older version. See what happens.

A simple nice thing to have is perhaps an autorun feature, for VE server. Also it would be nice to hide certain unused buttons. For instance if I have a licence for VIpro it is very very unlikely to use VI standard player, therefore it would be nice if I could hide the button at the bottom. Cheers.

I also like this license scheme idea. As I said previously, something so prestigous requires more protection. I still recomend that elicencer build stronger, more heavy duty dongles. A couple weeks ago, while I was taking my license key from my MIR machine to another pc to register more licences, the key accidentally fell off my hand. It ended up in 3 pieces. I was able to assemble it and luckily, it worked just fine. It could have been worse. While I fully agree with a license scheme, just in case of theft or any other unpleasant reason, I prefer not to get into any hassle in the first place. Also we must not forget that having a license scheme or not, can take a considerable amount of time, in order to get everything back to its place.  I mean, although one can take medicine when being sick, its always better to avoid getting sick in the first place, when you can :-)

Agreed! I have around 20 full library collections, several download instruments and other Vienna software, all on one key. (Because everything runs through MIR). Sometimes I have to take the dongle out, for mulitple reasons. I can't even imagine having issues like the ones mentioned above. Apart from the cost, I use VSL for work which I am bound with very tight deadlines. I simply CANNOT afford to fail on delivering to my clients. Infact one of the reasons I love VSL, is because the software is rock solid! When thinking about this, I think Syncrosoft and every other similar company should consider building military grade dongles made of other material than plastic. And also having the ability to pull-in the dongle interface plug, like some USB pen drives available on the market. As much as this might sound a bit over the top, after considering the amount of money spent on software licences and how much time, money and hassle it takes to bring them back, I guess it all starts to make sense.

Yeahh. I happen to be that stupid guy that did not buy Vienna Suite immediately, therefore I lost the opportunity to get the brilliant jazz drums for free. But the worst part is that I cannot even BUY them, haha.  +1! for jazz drums here :-) And for the MIR profile as well, plss :-) I've just purchased Vienna Imperial to my VSL collection btw, I'm anxiously waiting for it.

I happened to roll my cursor over the MIR pro part of the picture in the home page and it was active before it showed "out now". I watched the new video tutorials, and was speechless. MIR pro and VE pro5 combined seemed like the greatest idea. and VI pro2.. OMG. Well done to all the developers. and the all the VSL team!!!! I feel so honoured to use these products. :)

Soooo, we shall expect MIR Pro and VE Pro5 as from 1st November?!! :)

wwwoaohahoahhaaaaaa.. That's GREAAATT NEWS!!!

Thank youuuuuuu!!! lol

I'm so glad to hear this. Although most people including myself are feeling so jealous right now for not laying our hands on it:)

Totally agree with Dietz. Vincent please also note that VSL is recorded dry, to give you total creative freedom. The major difference between an orchestra sounding like "mozart" and an orchestra sounding like "Hans Zimmer", is in the mix. The instruments are all the same. In my humble opinion I think that the VSL collections include all the possible playing techniques, capturing every single nuance, and are the finest. The engine's programming abilties are very flexible and simply uninque, especially with Vienna Instruments PRO. MIR is what gives breath and life to the samples, among placing and further mixing control just like a scoring stage with a control room. In order to get a more "Hollywood" sound I like to use Vienna suite as well. With plugins like these you can isolate unwanted frequencies, bring out new harmonics, get more punch, make certain performances sound smoother, etc.. etc... I hope this helps a bit. :)

Also you can listen to some demos in link below. The orchestral sounds are all from VSL, inside MIR and with Vienna Suite plugins inserted.

I believe I suggested a morph feature toggle button for the velo X fade for VI Pro 1.0. Something similiar to Kontakt. I quite certain that something like that would improve drastically the blend between the layers.

Also I'm still hoping for a fix for some legato instruments. I mean, imho I feel that arranging for appasionata strings takes far less time to get the legatos sounding smooth than the orchestral strings, for instance. In fact I use them much more often. I don't know, perhaps these fixes have to be done to the libraries themselves rather than the player.

Above all, I just hope there will be detailed video tutorials like VI Pro & VE Pro:) That would be really helpful!

An upgrage path from the current version of MIR is quite certain, but from VEP is unlikely.

Thanks Dietz. That's great news! Can't wait:)

Dietz, can you perhaps shed some light on the new workflow for user who are already used to the current version of MIR? I know that certain "trade secrets" cannot be fully exposed yet. But it would be much appreciated if we can have an idea in order to get ready for any major changes, if required.

Thats good news! Can't wait:)

The only reason I mentioned it since Dietz said that MIR pro would be like MIR and VE pro in one application. So I thought...

Therefore I am assuming that there will be a reasonable upgrade path for users who own MIR, and perhaps for those who own both MIR and VE pro?
