  • Why no Directory Manager in MIR?

    Why is there no Directory Manager for MIR?  I had to install VE Pro just to be able to run Directory manager for my instruments to be recognized inside of MIR.  I didn't want VE Pro on this machine.  It's a fresh install on a brand new 8 core machine for MIR and nothing else.

    Thanks,

  • Actually the Directory Manager that comes with the Vienna Instruments themselves is supposed to do the job. What did you miss?

  • What I tried to do was install only MIR, my samples and nothing else.  (so no VI, VE or anything).  I didn't realize that you had to have one of them to get MIR to see the instruments (or actually to get the directory manager).

    I don't understand why MIR requires to have VI installed at all I guess is the point hehe.  The actual VI interface would open up inside of MIR prior to it being installed, but would tell me on the left side that no installed licenses were available.  After I installed VI and VE Pro, and ran Directory Manager, MIR could actually load instruments.

    I do see that the manual says you need Virtual Instruments, but I misunderstood that to mean, the samples themselves, not the actual VI application.
