Hi,
After reading the various manuals and discussions, I've still some doubts about MIR. Please let me expose them.
1) Can MIR Pro 24 work on 24 stereo instruments, or stereo sources halves the count?
2) When I've more than 24 parts, can I group some of them, and apply MIR on the corresponding aux channel? I'm thinking to Flute 1 and Flute 2, or Violins I divisi as viable candidates to this grouping.
3) I'm working on a particularly dense orchestral piece, and trying to create depth and space between instruments is not easy with Space Designer in Logic. I'm using the Near/Mid/Far technique, playing with pre-delay and send levels to create a sense of depth. While this is somewhat effective, the final result is still a bit too monodimensional and crowdy. Will MIR give a more pronounced sense of space, stage placement, air than Space Designer?
4) Will MIR replace channel panning?
5) A final "blend" reverb is a must, or are MIR instances on the separate channels/groups enough? I'm very conservative in the use of effects, and would be happy if MIR worked as a spatializer, with no need for additional final reverb (if not for effect).
Thank you for any hint you can give me.
Paolo
