"Out of Memory" with Kontakt
Hi everyone
I have a problem and I hope someone can help me. I use Pro Tool 9 on a Mac and Kontakt 5 and even though I have almost 10Gb of free memory left according to the "activity Monitor" in the Mac I get the message "Background loading - Out of Memory" in Pro Tools and if I keep working it crashes. Really appreciate some help! Magnus |

Re: "Out of Memory" with Kontakt
Hi again
I noticed that over 150 people had a look at this post but no one gave an answer so I guess some of you have faced the same problem as I and fortunately I found the answer. "Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and all previous versions of Mac OS X cannot address more than 4 GB of RAM (up to 3.5 GB supported) per application. If you are running KONTAKT on a 32-bit Mac, you are able to access more than 4 GB RAM with KONTAKT Memory Server (KMS)." -Open KONTAKT and click "OPTIONS" and chose "MEMORY" - Check "USE MEMORY SERVER" and restart the program. KONTAKT will now be able to access all your memory. You can choose automatic or manual later if you want but you can read more about that in the KONTAKT manual. I hope I could be of help to someone! Have a good weekend! Magnus |

Regardless of available memory on the Mac or if you have 10.6 or higher, Pro Tools 10 and all previous versions of Pro Tools are 32 bit and can only access up to 3.5 GB of memory. It is even lower on Windows (more like 2.5 - 3.2 GB). |
