  • And btw, i didn’t want to uninstall MIR, just those 3 GPU AUDIO things which popped in in my programs list. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I didn't even see those three GPU AUDIO things before in the programs list or know that is what you were talking about. I have them too.

    They are probably shared libraries / dependencies for the VSL software. If you were to remove them, things that try to reference them probably would not start or work properly, even if they are not being used. I get people trying to keep the system clean, but the alternative would be for VSL to include a separate copy of GPU audio with each program that potentially used it and then you would have multiple copies in the system even though it wouldn't appear in add/remove programs.

    Having it installed is not going to slow down the system. From what I can see, it does not even seem to start any background services or processes whatsoever, so there should be zero performance impact by having those.

    Yeah, multiple copies would be a good idea. 👍🏻 I’m not worried about performance impact as i’m woried about clashing with my interface driver. Sending an email to support now, will write what they said.


  • No, I don't think multiple copies would be a good idea, it is better to have them as shared installs between all copies the way they are doing it.

    You don't have to worry about clashing with your interface driver.


  • The GPU Audio installer is integrated into the MIR Pro 3D installer - of course, you can uninstall whatever you want on your system. But it will be back whenever you install the next MIR Pro update.

    Got it. Thanks! 🙏🏻


  • I've just checked, and this is not entirely accurate. GPU audio stuff gets automatically (re-)installed with Synchron Player updates as well. I have never demoed (or even looked at) anything MIR related, and yet the GPU Audio trio of programs just reappeared on my system for the second time when I updated Synchron.

    So can you tell us why Synchron Player needs these things installed?

  • @halfwalk GPU audio support is coming to the Synchron Player as well, they said so before on the forum.


  • GPU audio supports Synchron-ized Dimension strings and Synchron-ized SE Dimension volume 5 (Strings) already for a month or so. It's not really known to the massa's.

    Best,
