    Is anyone using Kontakt with VE Pro and what version of each? I understand that there are multi instrument issues in with Kontakt 3 and some others with Kontakt 4. I am mostly interested in using it with single instances of Kontakt, but a LOT of them. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

    I'm using Kontakt 3.5 in VEP on a slave machine (Mac Pro). I have anywhere from 10 - 20 instances of it in my templates, on 2 instances of the 32 bit server. I also have a 64 bit server running alongside of that with Vienna Epic Orchestra plus 2 instances of Omnisphere.

    One of the 32 bit servers runs nothing but LASS (a Kontakt hosted instrument). 

    Everything runs beautifully, but I'm not running multis in Kontakt, just singles for everything. The Mac AU spec only supports 16 channels of MIDI per server instance, so setting up multis in Kontakt is kind of pointless for me anyway- I just use more instances.

    So for each instance of Kontakt, you're using only 1 instrument loaded, using only 1 midi channel?
    Am I understanding that right?
    In that case, how many instances of Kontakt are you using for each instance of VEPro?
    I'm just curious...
