    Hi Team

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love MIR.

    But I'm finding it a bit of a hinderance that I can't use more than one room in a given instance of VEP. Any chance that you guys are planning on adding the ability to have more than one room? I'm not just asking rhetorically (for once) because I'm considering whether or not I need a secondary MIR license to do what I'd like to do.

    Thanks!!!

    I get around it by using multiple instances of VE Pro. I have to do so anyway, as my computer can only handle around eight channels in MIR at once, so I divide up the orchestra and freeze the VSTs. But there's nothing saying that all instances of VE Pro have to have the same MIR venue settings. Would that be helpful as a stopgap?

    I try to avoid using more than one instance, but yes, that's what I'm doing currently. 

    Thanks.

    I understand what you're after - you aim for a more conventional "two reverb machines" approach. But I think it's quite obvious that positioning an instrument in two rooms at the same time contradicts the basic idea of MIR quite a bit 😉 ... this doesn't mean that it couldn't sound "right" in the appropriate context, it's just not the main task MIR has been developed for.

    In other words: To use two different MIR Venues, you will indeed have to use two instances of VE Pro (not necessarily on two different machines, though: Just use two instances on the same machine, with the same MIR license). - We have no plans to change that in the near future.

    Kind regards,

    Hi Dietz

    Yes I understand. It's just a flexibility thing. 

    Thanks for your response
