  • VEP7 & RAM

    Hello!

    In my main machine (i9 and 128GB RAM) I'm having an high usage of memory... Actually I am not using so many istances in VEP (let's say 10/15) but a lot of them has PLAY instruments uploaded (Hollywood Strings and Woodwinds). It is known that those EW-PLAY instruments are very high RAM demanding... but, at the same time, I was thinking that with 128GB I could handle them. Maybe I was wrong. Any suggestion? Well, I could upload less PLAY instruments... but is there any other way?

    Thanks,

    Dan


  • Hi, I'm surprised that your main system is straining with 128GB RAM. I'm very interested to know what solution you find.

    On its own, my i9 with 64GB handles around 25-30 Synchron Special Editions instruments playing back together, with peaks around 80% CPU usage at extremely dense/tutti passages. As a server to the master, those same passages are down to around 40-60%.

    I wonder if it will be a lot more with adding NI/other sample library instruments running in Kontakt via VE Pro will add a lot more strain. Perhaps.
