nki / instrument like you would for Logic? It seems like a dream.Īre there Kontakt, Pro Tools settings that I'm just flat out missing?ĭo I load up one Kontakt instance PER. Gents I'd love to be able to have a session with 40-50 MIDI tracks playing simultaneously - not even bounced down to audio yet. And will only get better when companies catch up.

Sure a Kontakt Jaeger Violin + Viola patch + Damage 2 would seem a bit much for a MacBook Pro pre-M1, but this seems.wrong now. Even after closing out all instruments, etc.

But the memory meter continues to grow until you Quit out PT and re-open. Same setup as before, now I'm getting error messages saying the Memory is being capped out? Sure enough in System Usage, the idiot Memory meter, which only goes up (NEVER down), is upwards of 80%? On an M1? The CPU % is crazy low, that's great. Editing your MIDI, going back to change parts that you'd bounced down already.not ideal. Of course I'd have to bounce down to audio every so often, but it was doable. Load up 1 instance of Kontakt, route the many outputs, and libraries inside that single instance, as I've done on my MBP for years. Here's how I used to understand the best way for Pro Tools to handle multiple KONTAKT libraries:

That should be insanely sufficient from what I've seen on the YouTOOBS in the past 6 months to run some medium-sized hybrid orchestral, virtual instrument-focused, sessions. I upgraded from a 2015 MBP (16 GB RAM) to: M1 Mac Mini (16 GB RAM), PT 2021.3.1, 4 TB ext SSD for libraries. Hey wise wayward wizards of Pro Tools, I'm an intermediately skilled PT user, but I must say I'm at a loss here.
