Default Re: Native Instruments Komplete/PT Buffer Weirdness

If you really want to get your money's worth out of that software, put it on a second, dedicated computer. Producers who are heavily into sampling and VI's use two or more computers. Currently, I'm running a Mac G5 for PT/Logic, and then I run various combinations of NI plug-ins, other virtual plug-ins and GigaStudio on four PC's. Multiple computers is the way to go for both raw power and stability.

Your NI licenses will allow you to install on two machines. VST shell software like V-Stack, Plogue Bidule, etc., will give you a framework for running multiple plug-ins on a secondary machine. Midi can be done via local area network. If you are using only Macs, Tiger has networking built-in.
