Thanks for your interest. The huge piece I worked on the last few days - an incredible, complex programming by our "CK" Chris Kardeis, BTW - is done completely in surround and will be played in Frankfurt. I haven't prepared a dedicated stereo-mix yet, and the simple fold-down from 5.1 doesn't sound as elaborated as the multichannel-original. I will have to do some work on it after the Messe. - Hey, we are covering completly new ground here, and there's much to learn, too!

Apart from that - this was by no means a full-fledged MIR-mix, more another Proof Of Concept. So please don't expect a first "official" demo.

All the best,

/Dietz - Vienna Symphonic Library

PS to Paul - only my mother calls me "Dietmar"! [6]

This sounds very exciting Dietz!

May I suggest that when you post a demo, post it in multichannel - that's what we're waiting for isn't it?
You could post all the separate audio files, which we can sync up and play in Logic for example for the full surround effect.

Regards - Colin

We are already discussing a solution for that. But please - I'm _really_ busy around the Musikmesse, so allow for an healthy delay in delivery [;)]

Thanks again for your interest - we do everything to fulfill all your high expectations (as much as ours).

Another PS to Paul - my comment to your posting was meant to be friendly banter; no need to delete your messages [:)]

Dietz, can you tell us what the piece is?

On Thursday. I won't spoil the party! [;)]

Sorry Dietz, but i have to share my gladness.

here a link to a first demo of MIR. I recorded it yesterday on german radio. there was a broadcast about the vsl people programming the MIR Project.

Thanks for the link! There's an offical site, too:

This contains _not_ the piece I wrote about, obviously. The demos made for the radio-feature date back about one or two months. If there's music in it (... I didn't find the time to listen to it myself at the moment), then the piece is a quick "mir-ed" remix from Jay Bacal's wonderfull programming of Aaron Copland's clarinet-concerto.

Mind you - what I was showing to Maximilian Schönherr were the _principles_ of the MIR, not the engine itself.

All the best,

/Dietz - Vienna Symphonic Library

Dietz, since the proverbial cat is partially out of the bag, would it be possible to post a higher quality version of Copland test piece. It should come as no surprise that I for one would love to hear this. [:)]

Best,
Jay

Yes, of course - please allow a delay until the Messe is over. My days are 25 hours long, right now ... (yawn).

All the best,

/Dietz

Hey that sounded pretty nice! Looking forward some more demos. Althought the mix was compressed pretty hard. But that's only matter of taste I quess..

It seems that these impulse multichannel reverbs are going to hit the market big time. Garritan also announced his reverb plugin.

So - here is an "official" link of the German radio-station Deutschlandfunk to an audio-on-demand webstream (on the right) and a complete transkription of the text and the interviews Maximilian Schoenherr did with us and scientists from the University of Berlin.

The quality isn't perfect either, but should be closer to the original at least.

There was even another feature from the Musikmesse recently, with short snippets from our development:

Mind you - the audio-examples presented in these featuers are work in progress and are BY NO MEANS the first "MIR-demo".

All the best,

/Dietz (back from Frankfurt and very tired)

Could one just not better post an official mp3? Seems senseless to listen to a crappy radio broadcast. [;)]
