Hello Dietz,
Again, thanks for the quick reply.
I can launch the empty MIR outside of VE and Sibelius, and I can load a venue from Room Pack 1.
In VE preferences MIR, MIR Pro eq and MIRacle are all showing up; also MIR's own logo. I've done rescans here to make sure.
Open New Project on VE's menu does not offer MIR, just a change in the content of VE.
On the bottom left 'insert a new plugin after this channel' in VE MIR is still not showing - perhaps this is correct.
As mentioned before I can add the red Mir Pro inline to any instrument channel and clicking on this opens the small GUI of dry/wet and volume.
In Sibelius MIR doesn't show up on the active devices list, but it does appear under Master Insert Effects, along with the VIenna Suite plugins. But this would add it to the final master stereo which is the wrong place, is it not? And I have the impression MIR doesn't need to be an active device in Sibelius?
So I think the issue is missing steps for what happens inside VE. For example, if the red inline is activated for every instrument in an VE instance, how then does MIR open fully inside VE? And what if there is more than one instance of VE?
There is a complicated heirarchy of processing (Sibelius, VIPro, VE, MIR) which is difficult to grasp.
I hope this makes plain the problem.
