    Hi All,

    Sorry to ask this, but I couldn't find this information on the product/library descriptions. I'd like to know how much RAM is used when one loads each section of the Appassionata Strings (Std. & Full) for MAC OS X.

    Example:

    Violins Std. takes up ??? RAM
    Violins Full takes up ??? RAM

    Violas Std. takes up ??? RAM
    Violas Full takes up ??? RAM

    Cellos Std. takes up ??? RAM
    Cellos Full takes up ??? RAM

    (I'm not concerned with the Basses, just the ones above.)

    I would really appreciate it if anyone familiar with App. Strings could answer this.

    Thanks, Brian

    Hi Brian. According to the patch info, Appassionata Strings Violins Std+Ext patches (45 in all) total 1315MB (=1.315GB) of RAM. This is on my PC, I presume it would be the same on a Mac as they're the same samples.

    Hope that gives you an idea - I doubt you would ever need to load all 45 patches though!?
