Re: Memory problem?
Kontakt may work well in other apps but not in Protools and still it can be NI's fall (Not saying it is)... AAX has different Protocols and SDKs and rules than Apple for AU and VST etc. NI doesn't code ONE plug that then runs everywhere. They code EACH for each version of the plug-in.

Only slight gotcha is the odd -9173 error when I put a very CPU intensive/RAM hungry instrument into record and the dual buffer kicks in.

Overall I blame avid. But I have used NI for years and I always have had issues with their software playing nice with others. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

I've started a new project that currently uses 2 Battery instances, 4 Kontakt, 4 Massive, 3 Synthmaster, 2 Absynth. 15 VIs, nothing too fancy. In Pro Tools cpu easily reaches 25%+ during playback (only the VIs are playing in realtime at the moment). Since I wanted to use Alchemy, I exported a MIDI file and rebuilt the same setup in Logic. CPU never gets above 9%. This is with the exact same number of tracks, instruments, and patches.

Re: Memory problem?
may i ask .. are you gents using Kontakt Server or Pro Tools to service the Memory for Kontakt ????
i agree with all you say, i also see sometimes that (for lack of better description) Pro Tools Grabs Kontakt before it can Start it's own Server .. you do not see it load in the Menu Bar .. frustrating .. i know Avid is aware and very concerned about Midi / VI issues .. i am doing my best to document and have the patience for this to be fixed .. and patience can be thin these days, with the way things are progressing .. my next payment to Avid is not until September - hoping we can a few good Stability things by then for midi / VI's .. not sure i would have the same patience if i was a small studio with HD .. all of us that use PT everyday and are comfortable and those that need to move / trade sessions with others on PT and Studios that use it all we can do if hang in there .. or move to another platform for midi / VI .. my .02 for a sunday morning .. john

You mentioned Avid is very concerned re MIDI/VI issues. Are you in some sort of communication with Avid? Are they aware of this problem? Thanks.

Re: Memory problem?
I hear you, and I do understand VE Pro is great for a lot of people's setups (I used it years ago, pre-64-bit), however, with 64-bit Pro Tools we should not have to use it. I don't want to lose faster-than-realtime MIDI Commit to Audio, which I would with VE Pro.
I'd prefer Avid fix this. Thanks.

Re: Memory problem?
Perhaps it's that Kontakt isn't fully AAX-compatible? It's some kind of VST-to-AAX wrapped code and if so it will cause problems. I don't really know, but I suspect this is the case.
