    OK, I have managed to get VE Pro working with Logic Pro pretty well on 1 computer. I have an instance of Stylus RMX loaded into the 64 bit server and 3 multi-timbral instances of Kontakt 4 in the 32 bit. I wrote: Every time I try however to use IAC busses for MIDI so that I can decouple the instruments in the 32bit server so that each has their own 16 MIDI channels, the 32bit server is seeing some kind of MIDI loop and quits. The solution is to go into Logic's Environment Clicks & Ports layer and disconnect the Sum of the Physical Input to the Sw=equencer Input and instead, cable the ports of your controller(s) to the Sequencer Input. This breaks the MIDI loop and allows you to cable separate Logic Multi-instruments with separate IAC bus assignments to the VE Pro instantiated AU, and then utilize them in VE Pro. This is definitely a little geeky stuff and not for newbies to Logic however. WARNING: SHAMELESS SELF_PROMOTION ALERT! BTW folks, I will be doing tutorials on VE Pro-Logic Pro 9 for the same computer and 2 computers in my upcoming book, "Going Pro With Logic Pro 9."

    Only 2 flies in the ointment. WIth 3 instruments using 3 IAC busses in the 32 bit server and a 4th in the 64 bit server using the 4th IAC buss, there is definitely some latency. The 64 bit is dead on the click while the 32 bit lags a little. Also, no matter how I save or preserve, when I quit Logic and then the 32 bit server, or vice-versa, When I try to reopen the 32 bit server, I get a message telling me it is still in use or a network is not available and the only solution is to restart the computer. This does not seem to happen with the 64 bit server.

    The problem was related to Kontakt's Memory Server. You have to quit it to prevent this issue. BTW, I have concluded that with the IAC buss methodology the latency is more than I consider an acceptable trade-off, so I am back to using separate instances with 16 MIDI channels each.
