i owned a boxed copy of Miroslav Philharmonik 1 that i have used for ages And recorded my whole first album using it on my previous pro tools 8HD on a 32bit windows 7 system, "i lost that box now but i have it backed up on a hard drive lol", Windows was only using 4 gig of ram, that's very hard on the system,
i upgraded to a new 64 bit based system, and ALL my plugins worked , apart from almost ALL of the IK multimedia ones
so sample tank wouldn't work, and neither would Miroslav,
so assuming it was a 64 bit system issue, i PURCHASED the new Miroslav 2 and gave that a go, only to find out that it's purely 64bit support based software, and there goes my money down the drain as Pro Tools 10 is a technically a 32 bit DAW, so it will not see Miroslav.
After months of trying everything possible to make pro tools see the plugin and trying every possible recommendation i was given, nothing worked, i tried windows 32bit with a kernel patch for the RAM issue, that didn't work, i tried countless times Re-installing Miroslav, but that didn't work, i relocated the files between the 64 and 32 bit system files, update the plugin folder and tried many registry hacks, nothing worked, only as a stand alone.
Today i was researching again for more solutions, and after a bit of research into other DAW issues, i remembered something vital,
windows has a compatibility platform that it runs to resolve issues with both 32 and 64 bit platforms, so technically i need to trick windows to install the program in 32 bit only,
i tried a few different way, and i landed at the following, "Miroslav 1 only fix"
Right click on the installation file and select properties, select "Compatibility", tick the comparability mode box and select Windows2000 and select the Run this program as an Administrator then select OK.
now Double click on the installation file and follow the prompts.
when you run your DAW next time you will be able to open the plugin and run through the registration to get it going .
I don't know how helpful this might be to anyone, but since i had this issue, i though i will share this with everyone else in case anyone needs this in the future .
