  • MIR PRO with FORTI

    Hi,

    my first post here. Is any of you using FORTI with MIR PRO? Im new to FORTI so i would be glad to hear how people are used combining these two.


  • Hello and welcome Laurikoivisto,

    Thanks for your interest in VSL's products. :-)

    MIR Pro and SERTI/FORTI are convolution-based products, but that's where their similarity ends.

    • MIR Pro is about three-dimensional virtual representations of real halls, while SERTI/FORTI are meant to be used for timbral changes of single instruments or ensembles.
    • The MIR-concept relies on collections fo thousands of IRs gathered from real halls - our so-called "RoomPacks", which have to be used in MIR Pro's engine. FORTI/SERTI come as collection of individual IRs which have to be used in Vienna Suite's Convolution Reverb.
    • FORTI/SERTI were developed by Ernest Cholakis / Numerical Sound and are distributed by VSL. MIR Pro is VSL's own development.

    When you plan to make use of SERTI/FORTI together with MIR Pro, you would simply insert an instance of VS Convolution Reverb with the chosen IR before MIR Pro. - That said, I should point out that it makes lots of sense to combine these two when we talk about the "Timbral Impulses" of FORTI, but (for obvious reasons) not so much in case of the actual reverb-IRs also included in these collections.

    HTH,

  • Thanks Dietz,

    how would you approach TILT filters? 


  • Hi Lauri,

    please address all FORTI/SERTI-related questions directly to Ernest Cholakis from Numerical Sound - he's the one who invented and devloped the Timbral Impulses:
