    I am havinh a big problem with Mir 24 used as  plugins in logic , even with as little as 4 instruments , when I go to move the position of one of them it will cause some of the icons to disappear . When I click on the instrument on the left hand pane the icon then appears in a balck window outside of the room and does not allow me to put it back . I am also getting a lot of crashes where Mir will say it needs to be reopened . Any ideas? I also sometimes get this message An error occurred while parsing server response:

    An error occurred while parsing server response:

    Expected '#' or '[a-zA-Z]', but got ' '

    I have latest version 5.1.12159 , loogic 9.8, 32 gig ram

    Any ideas?

    I had the same problem with Mir Pro Plugin yesterday. After rebooting the project, everything was ok. But I don't have the crashes issue.

    Hi  molemac_824,

    sorry for the trouble. Thing is that I know the problem very well myself. 8-P

    It might sound a bit strange, but actually I'm almost a bit relieved that there are users out there who are experiencing that issue, too. Until now it seemed that I'm the only one who runs into it - VSL software engineers haven't been able to reproduce the problem. 😕

    I honestly doubt that the re-installation of the application really cures the problem, as I'm installing new beta-versions all the time and still see it happen.

    May I ask: Is the projcet which is prone of that issue a result of a mergerd-in second VI-Frame? Or imported channel data? I have a suspicion that this is something were certain data chunks get corrupted.

    Thanks for any info (and please supply OS versions etc. ..).

    TIA,

    Hi,

    Well so far so good no crashes or disappearing icons all day yesterday . The project is a new one and I am not using any vi frames but just Mir as an AU plug in .

    Os X 10.83 , logic 9.1.8 , mir pro 24 latest, room pack 2, 32 meg ram , Imac 2.8 quad i7

    Hi everyone,

    I ran into this phenomenon yesterday for the first time. Yesterday is also the day I upgraded from MIR Pro 24 to MIR Pro. I had more than 24 objects on stage - a newfound sense of freedom. After repeatedly trying to pursuade my escaping violin section to come back into the hall the Ensemble eventually crashed. Felt like mutiny for a minute. Eversince I have not come across this problem, nor have been able to reproduce it. All I can say is that it happened after I edited some of the object parameters to a group on stage.

    It seemed for a moment, the incredible realism of MIR extended from spatialization to musicians sentiments. Maybe I should write other music, or plan more breaks. :)

    Here's a few specs:

    VE Server 64 bit 5.1.12010

    Mac Pro Octacore 24gb RAM

    Logic Pro 9.1.8

    Best,

    Tobias

    Although the issue is annoying, I had to lough out loud when I read this. 😄

    sure it wasnt the viola section , that would make more sense if  they were locked out of the room
