  • MIR & Multitouch

    Hello Dietz,

    does MIR and it’s Icons work with Multitouch-Displays like this one (please see the Link)? I use Windows 10  and want to use Multitouch-Displays from now on.
    The question is specific about „MULTI“touch = touching f.ex. 2 Icons at the same time.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Hi LAJ, 

    I have no idea, honestly - but I'll try to find out ASAP. 

    Thanks for your patience!

    PS: ... keep in mind that changing positions in MIR Pro is neither automatable nor a real-time command, so the benefit might be neglectable anyway.

  • Hello again,

    thank you Dietz. These displays are finding their ways in many Studios at the moment and have already many convinced fans. I have to say that I always saw MIR as a Software that „wants to be touched“. And touching „the real thing“ (the Software as it is) is so much more exciting than having a separate touch-app on a tablet for me. Why should you use a „Software for the Software“ ... if you can concentrate on the real thing!

    For changing the icons-positions I would use only one finger anyway since the change needs to be calculated. But I was more about using multiple fingers on the Icon-Faders. (And of course multiple fingers on all other faders ... be it the ones of Cubase, the SY-Player or VE Pro.)

    No need to investigate this Dietz! I just thought you were curious and tested it already. 

     

    Thanks.


  • I already sent a message to VSL's developers regarding your question. Maybe it'll take them some time to answer. Thanks for your patience!

    Personally I made several attempts to like touch-screen based gear in the studio during the last 25 years or so - to no avail, up to now. 8-/ Haptics and tactile feedback are hard to replace ...

    Hi Dietz!

    Ich habe heute den Touch Screen geliefert bekommen und bin begeistert.

    „Multi“-Touch funktioniert zwar nicht so wie gedacht, aber der Workflow mit nur einem Finger (nicht-Multi) ist trotzdem genial. Vienna Ensemble pro, MIR Pro und der Synchron Player lassen sich super bedienen. Besonders beim Synchronplayer (auf 125% gezoomt) oder auch bei Omnisphere ist das ein Highlight die vielen Regler und Knöpfe so zu bedienen.

    Auch das MIR-Icon und dessen Fader kann man schieben und drehen 😉 ... wie erwartet ...

    Einziger Änderungswunsch: die Zoomfunktion per +/-Buttons.

    Demnach kommt hier noch ein letzter Wunsch für MIR 3D ...

    Könnte man die plus- und minus-Knöpfe zu Ein- und Auszoomen gegen einen Fader (Schiebe-Zoom-Funktion) austauschen?😃 Die Touch-Freunde werden es dir danken.👍 User, die eine Mouse nutzen, zoomen sowieso alle per Mouse-Rad. Nutzt du diese +/- Knöpfe zum Zoomen denn? Ich habe sie noch nie genutzt.

    Danke dir und einen Guten Rutsch wünsche ich dir.

    Thanks for your enthusiastic feedback, but please - let's stick to English, for the convenience of all fellow forumites. 😉

    Hi Dietz!

    I got the touch screen delivered today and I'm thrilled. 

    "Multi" touch doesn't work as intended, but the workflow with just one finger (non-multi) is still awesome. Vienna Ensemble pro, MIR Pro and the Synchron Player are great to use. Especially with the Synchron Player (zoomed to 125%) or Omnisphere, it is a highlight to operate the many controls and buttons this way.

    Also the MIR icon and its fader can be pushed and turned ... as expected ...

    Only change request: the zoom function via +/-buttons.

    So here comes one last wish for MIR 3D ...

    Could the plus and minus buttons to zoom in and out be exchanged for a fader (slide zoom function)? Fans of touch screens will thank you. Users who use a mouse will zoom by means of the mouse wheel anyway. Do you use those +/- buttons for zooming? I have never used them.

    Thank you and I wish you a Happy New Year.

    I'll make a note, thanks for your input!

    Have a great 2021,
