Dietz and/or others...
- Score mixer and I are trying to print separate stems for each microphone I have in MIRpro for a 5.1 mix.
- Using VEPro6/MIRpro/etc in Logic X (everything updated). Mac is main on 10.12.6, Windows slave.
- Sessions were written in stereo.
I'm confused on how to get from a stereo session in LogicX/VEPro6/MIRpro, convert everything to 5.1, then do the proper assignments so I can have each mic capsule print on a seperate audio track in Logic X.
When I use "Convert Project Channel Configuration..." in the VEPro Instance menu, I select 5.1 Configuration, then all of my tracks in VEPro disappear and I get a plugin error "Toolkit: Vienna Surround Balance (Incompatible channel configuration: Stereo to Stereo." To get around this, I save my channel set, create a "New Project" in VEPro, then load up my channel set. (Now in the MIR Pro Output Editor, the 5.1 presets are no longer italicized.)
So, how do I route these mics around in VEPro? The little "+" sign next to each instrument? Create BUS channels? I can't figure it out except separating the whole wet (all mics) from the dry. For example, I can't find "Output LS" except in the MIRpro Output Matrix.
Next... in Logic X...
When I select VEPro "Multi-Output (1x1.5, 15x Stereo)" I get an error message that says "Failed to load Audio Unit "Vienna Ense", please contact the manufacturer for an updated version or further assistance." Since I'm only printing stems in Logic (mixer works in Protools) do I need to make the Logic session 5.1 or could I use the "Multi-Output (16xStereo)" and print stems that way?
Apologies, I know that's a lot to unpack... I've searched for a while today looking for a solution myself but can't find one.
