  • There will be a built-in solution especially for those poor souls who have to use Logic. [8-|] A workaround, of course, but it will work.

  • I don't understand it either. Apple is always years ahead in design and architecture, how are they so far back with this AU limitation, especially when they do take themselves seriously in this industry (building programs like Logic, Soundtrack, and Final Cut PROs).

    This is really not an appropriate or polite statement from someone who works for VSL. Dietz, you usually try to deflect discussions away from platform wars and this comment shows a rather unfortunate bias. It also tells tells me that Mac/Logic users are possibly regarded as second-class citizens by VSL and even that development for Mac takes a reluctant second place in your priorities.

    Very unfortunate indeed.


  • Logic is so behind in some domaines, because they are years ahead in others (64 bit). Hopefully the new Logic X (slated for this summer) will give us lots of surprises!

    I'm pretty sure Dietz wasn't being completely serious with his comment. I think it's possible to find a bit of banter there.


  • For the record I also took Dietz's comment very lightheartedly (I still would even without the emoticon), in addition, if 80% or so of a company's customers are PC users of course they would take priority in some fashion or other. I'm happy enough that VSL video demos/tutorials are done on the Mac - you just can't beat the aesthetics, and I personally could not possibly work if I had to look at a Vista screen/buttons/architecture etc.

    Logic X? Where did you hear that? This summer? I wonder whether it will just be a little Lionized or actually include some real improvements...

    You could also read it as VSL spending extra time specifically for Logic users on features that nobody else needs, thereby showing a greater commitment to OSX than Windows. [;)]

    Sigh. Why can't my words be taken with a pinch of salt, especially when I give a positive answer and add a BIG FAT SMILEY ...

    So let me put it that way: Yes, we try to overcome the limitations of Logic once again on behalf of a tailor-made solution, developed escpecially for you.

    ... does this sound better now?

    There is no other solution as MIR, today, only work on PC ![:@]

    As VSL is developing MIR PRO to run on Mac it is a serious sign that there is money to do with Mac user and a lot of Mac user are refusing to work with PC

    VSL (Martin S) did an extra effort to re-wite loading routine, so now you can load using full speed of your I/O

    By the way,  did a comparison at and equal configuration before buying my Macpro 12 core, Mac is a little bit cheaper [:P]


  • I was at Paul's Mir Pro presentation in Montreal and I can tell that VSL have been working hard on a solution for Logic's AU limitation. The have a workaround. So they still care about Logic users.

    That sounds much better than "poor souls" who use Logic.

    Your tailor-made solutions are always appreciated.

    That's more like the Dietz I've seen on these forums.....[Y]

    Well, there had to be some compensations for using such a repulsive system  [:)]

     Why do you think MIR is repulsive? Have you ever used it?

  • ...sorry for having caused this debate by asking about logic's AU limitation ;-)

    but I just have one more question concerning audio routing with MIR Pro...  

    I have never used this feature with the current MIR simply because it seemed too complicated to send audio signals from my sequencer computer to the MIR slave and then send it back to the host.... so will it work with MIR Pro that I can send one or more audio tracks (or the output of a VEPro instance on a second slave being sent back to the host) of a project that also uses the new MIR Pro plugin directly to MIR (avoiding sequencer output-MIR input-MIr output-sequencer input)... rather like a effect plugin so to speak? 


  • Don't worry about it. Lot's of insecure people around. [;)]

    Regarding the audio input issue, this is not currently  possible with either VE Pro (in server mode) or MIR, so you're missing nothing. As far as MIR Pro is concerned I'm also relying on this feature, without knowing anything about it, so unless Dietz is prepared to spill the beans we're all out of luck for the time being.

  • Once you try Mac, you never go back [H] (I wonder why they never used this in advertisements...)
