    Add another 3-4 Gig by opening a VI stand-alone!

    I do find that the most I can get the au's or the stand-alones to load is about 3.2-3.3 GB though.

    Interesting. So could you load VI within logic, and then load VI as a stand alone and get about 8gb usage?

    Makes a MAC a bit more attractive.

    I did not make myself clear.........NO Stand-Alone needed......

    When opening Vienna Instruments within Logic...the memory being used by Logic DOES NOT increase!

    So you open circa 3.5 gig of Vienna Instruments IN Logic (not stand-alone)....NOW you STILL have circa 3.5 gig of EXS24 vienna stuff (old library) available...

    SINCE, the way they set up VSL-server, it does not touch the 4 gig available to Logic..

    On a MAC each app has a 4 gig cap.
    VSL-server is it's OWN app, even when run as a plug-in in Logic.

    I'd be interested to know if this affects the sample count ceiling.

    Guess I did not make myself clear either - I was asking because I'm only interested in teh VI, not the old EXS version. So I wanted to know if there was a way to access all that memory using the VI.

    and remember: only a CRAY can run an endless loop in just three seconds.

    I've used plogue a bit, but not whie monitoring activity monitor...but, I think plogue still uses the 1 set of memory provided by VSL Server...I'm thinking because it's still an AU plug-in on the same machine

    What JJ Roach said:

    As soon as an AU version of VI is opened .........The memory goes to one place only VSL-Server.

    So accessing more VIs by opening plugue or similar, in addition to the DAW does not apply.
