I am trying to run Herb's full orchestra preset (VIP2 version) with a much reduced sample load (mainly just trying it with the legato patches). I've loaded 4 instances of the 64-bit server (one per section), but am getting a ton of stuttering digital distortion. Sometimes I can get a few of the sections to play together without distortion and other times simply soloing a single instrument produces the distortion. In fact, it seems as though once i get disortion (by playing too many instruments together) I can't get a single solo'd track to play without it. The only way to hear the track play cleanly is to restart and reload Logic & VEP5.
Would the distortion dissappear if I expanded my setup? And if so, how do people recommend I expand it? A MMS? SSD?
I think I'd be more into getting an MMS at this point given the cost of SSDs, but not if the MMS is not going to work.
Thanks!

(Ps. I tried the multiport layer but couldnt get it to work without hanging notes or without notes simply not being palyed).
