Hi vosk,
just had a look at the video about your problem. I wonder if you already tried to change the audio buffer size or the MIR latency settings.
To get a better idea of what's going on on your system, it would be interesting if you could try:
- same audio buffer size, MIR latency set to 0
- larger audio buffer size, MIR latency set to 0
- larger audio buffer size and a larger MIR latency
Thank you, Florian
I have not used MIR like this, I use it in VE PRO, so I cannot help you much

Did you try to set your buffer size to 1024 in Cubase and your pre-load buffer size in directory manager to the minimum
Do you have the possibility in Cubase to "mute"/disable MIR ?
Does it improve ?
As you have a lot of free memory, you can increase Preload in Directory Manager ! [8-)]
If you had the possibility to convert your project in Logic format I could test it on my configuration
On a well-built, but not spectacular machine from 2012 I can use up to 150 instances and more of MIR Pro (in stereo, 44.1kHz, depending on latency settings and other applications running at the same time).
-> Intel Core i7-3930K, 32 GB RAM, Windows 7 Prof. 64bit, Nuendo 5.5.6 64bit, RME HDSP
You're using either very low latencies, or something else is peculiar on your system.
W7 x64 Ultimate, i7-3770K (3.9 mhz), 32 GB RAM, Cubase 7.5.3 x64, RME AIO (6 ms latency)
Clean C7 project, 24 (for MIR PRO 24 :)) audio-tracks (guitar groove), 24 channels (pos. on stage) in MIR (Standalone) = 60% loading CPU. (ups..)
In this case I have only 40% CPU max for everything else.
The 3770k processor is 342 $ the 3930k is 594 $
What are the differences !
One is 4 core, 8 thread and 8 MB cache the other is 6 core, 12 threads and 12 MB cache, you cannot expect the same number of tracks
Also Dietz and Paul are only using VSL instruments, they dont use CPU killing plug-ins like Play and company
Dietz or Paul : I will very interested to have a benchmark of the same project using MIR as an AU and MIR in VE, do you have the overhead ?
Wosk : I am going to be curious about the Layering film :
Why dont you use only VSL libs ?
Why are you layering all those libs ?
Why dont you take the best of each lib ?
Cyril is right about that, especially Play as it has many issues.
oddly enough I have a similar setup in hardware, though with three slaves and a master. I have brass, percussion, organ on one, all strings on a second and woodwinds, harp on a third. It is very easy to set up MIR separately on each slave, using the same settings. Since they are all viewable in real time it is simple to adjust instrument positions/EQ/dry-wet, etc. The power on these fairly modest i7 slaves each with 32 gb ram is unbelievably awesome! Such that they are only around 10 % CPU on huge orchestral playbacks. So my suggestion is since you have multiple slaves to simplify the setup in a similar manner, having each with its own MIR.

Hello William
If you have multiple slave with it's own MIR, do you get back in your DAW 2 x tracks or 2 x tracks per slave ?

I already understood it only way in this situation. Unfortunately it has three negative components:
1. If you change microphone settings or something else in one MIR, you'll need to change these settings and in 2nd MIR (slave A comp.) and in 3rd MIR (slave B comp.). First, you can not to change this parameters for all 3 MIRs exactly (equally) using only the mouse and your eyes, you will have to create preset, copy it to slaves computers and open this preset in MIR 2 and MIR 3. This is a triple work.. In addition, you can simply forget to change this parameters in another MIR. 😊

2.On a Slave computer I have a graphical glitch if move any in MIR. This occurs because I connect with my slaves comp. via "Remote Desktop" program. If I want operate a slave computers directly, I must have 3 keyboards and 3 mouse. But it is not convenient. :)
- MIR graphic on master comp. :*
3. MIR24 PRO + two roompack = about 750€
MIR24 PRO x3 + additional two roompack x3 = about 1600€
We have additional 850€ only for work with one MIR on 3 computer! You have free 850 euros? 😊 No problem. But I'll buy ice cream for my wife. :)
It seems to do the work with MIR in standalone mode on another computer is much easier than to solve these problems.:)
