Very kind of you Daryl.

When you say one Kontakt instance per track (channel)? - how would that be helpful? I can use one instance of Kontakt per track in Logic by itself. Would using VEP Pro 5 make a big difference?

Hang on a second. Before I delve into this, are you saying that you are not wanting to use the Network capabilty of VEP?

Here are two screenshots that might help you:

This one shows the MIDI and audio input routing:

Daryl many thanks indeed.

That's a good question and I was on the phone to my music publisher when I spotted your message come up. So I asked if I should bother to link two computers together (which was part of the plan) - and yes I could and would be interested in doing that. Even though as you say I don't have anything like big templates. I thought I should at least give it a go.

The Kontakt screenshots. Yes I go into the Batch thing and do all of that.

OK, so you'll see from the screenshots that I have two MIDI inputs (coming from seperate MIDI channels 1& 2) routed to one instance of Kontakt with two seperate outputs.

At the moment both outputs are routed to the same master output in VEP, but it would be possible to use seprate outputs from VEP as well (creating extra input auxes in Logic).

Where does it not work for you now?

We can discuss the Network thing when the rest is working for you.

Daryl thanks.

I am downloading tracks at the moment, but the second I finsih I will get Logic up and try to get your initial suggestion first and then come back asap. Paul

OK thanks for the try Daryl but I can't make head nor tail out of it and have deleted the program from the hard drive. I don't think I even need it. Just one computer should be sufficient for what I do.

I tried to download the demo again but it came up saying I had too many demo lisences. That is because the second time I tried it, it didn't work.

So that just saved me £200. I'll buy another library instead from somewhere.

Dear PaulR, after 2000+ messages in these forums you should actually know that VSL supporters usually are able to solve problems like yours, if asked politely. ->

I think in my discussion here with Daryl has been perfectly polite. 

What someone needs to do is make a video for dummies is:-

(a) MINIMUM 760p RESOLUTION.

(b) One where it starts from the beginning on ONE computer .

(c) then one for usage with 2 computers.

(d) A video that shows it all layed out very in very easy to understand language and how to set it up step by step

(e) A video that is made for people that have no experience of DAWs or anything else.

This almost certainly is going to be impossible just like everything else in the music tech business. Never seen a video yet that explained anything satisfactorily.
