    MIR is not "the reverb plugin" of the Vienna Suite - it's a stand-alone mixing and reverberation engine (and host) for our Vienna Instruments.
    Hmm, does "host" mean I will have to choose wether to use MIR or -say - Logic as a host? Or will we be able to still use Logic (or whatever) an plug MIR in? And if so, can we use non-VSL-instruments with the MIR-reverb?

    For a better understanding look at the Vienna MIR as a mixing console with quite a few added options and possibilities. We will release a more detailed list of these features, as well as the technical requirements, in the near future.

    Loaded question: With MIR, would one need a host such as Cubase?

    You wouldn't need Cubase as a host, but as a MIDI-sequencer.

    I don't think there is ANYTHING more critical on my 'to buy' list than MIR.   Thanks Dietz for keeping us updated as much as it makes good business sense to do do.

    All the best,

    To what extent would having both VE Pro and Vienna Suite obviate having MIR?

    Nothing obviates having MIR. However, you can make plenty of good music without it.

    Just remember that MIR will take a monster of a PC to run. Factor this into the cost as well.

    I wouldn't say "Monster PC", but of course it will have to be a recent model.

    Yes, I see what it is by comparison now. I hadn't seen all of this info, it's a superduper convolution postproduction station. What's still not clear to me is running it off a slave network, as I saw a post, 'a closed system'. I am currently looking at a monster configuration. At the current time, I can't use it as it's not ported to OSX.

    The more recent tests tell me it's a pretty greedy animal.
