Hi Deitz et al.
I recently posted on youtube a series of compositions that I composed and mixed using only Vienna instrument patches and MIR venues. http://www.youtube.com/user/Bachbeatty
Compositions 001-013 were mixed using the Schubertsaal venue, compositions 014-026 were mixed using the Mozartsaal venue and compositions 027-029 were mixed using the Grossersaal. Most of the patches use the natural volume and all use pure character . For each composition the instruments were grouped and the output volume and dry/wet ratio were controlled for the whole group. No other compressors, reverb, etc. were used. Would you and others who are familiar with MIR listen to a couple of the compositions mixed in the different venues and tell me if the sound falls within your sound design parameters for MIR. If there are any “tweaks “ to enhance the sound it would be much appreciated if you would share them.
Hardware; Mac Pro running Logic Pro in the 64bit mode and music lab midi over LAN to control a VisionDAW system with dual intel Quad core Xeon X5560 –2.8 Ghz, 8MB Cache, 4 x 500GB WDC Enterprise Class SATA II, 32 GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM, RME Hammerfall HDSF96/52 Audio interface, and Presonnus Light Pipe.
The CPU runs at 25-30% capacity for a full orchestral compostion.
Thanks,
