NotePerformer 4 Released

[Thurisaz]

Hi @nomisllewdor,

@nomisllewdor

Well I saw 32 gig RAM advised and 50 gb to be comfortable. Is this the estimate for loading a full orchestra? I feel well behind the times with my i7 980 and 24 Gb RAM + 3 SSD drives. Still was thinking about a new beast anyway

Depends on the library, or combination of libraries you are planning to use, and their player settings.
With certain settings in Spitfire Audio player, you could run a full BBC SO Pro orchestra with 24GB of RAM, but you may need m2. NVMe SSD drives for faster sample streaming.

Here are some settings that reduce the ram usage and make the performance faster

Off topic! Hi @dko22, About your problem with BBC SO. Try the following settings in the Spitfire Player in order to improve the performance: Maximum Voices: 768 (Default 512) Preload size: 6144 (Default 12288) Stream Buffer Size: 8192 (Default 65536) Maximum Pitch Voices: 12 (Default 8) I’ve issues with BBC SO Pro and I was given these settings by the Spitfire Audio support. Now everything works as expected. Best regards, Thurisaz

Unfortunately Kontakt Player still doesn’t offer similar settings that have a serious impact on the RAM and performance…

Best wishes,
Thurisaz
