Just wondered what settings you guys were using for the "number of threads" option?
I have a core 2 quad 2.66 (also running cubase 5 on the same machine) and setting it to 2 cores seems to work ok but wondered if there was any advantage to using more of less?
Cheers

From the manual:
Each Vienna Ensemble PRO instance will use the specified number of process
threads. So 1 instance on an 8 core computer should use 8 threads, 2 instances should use 4 threads,
and so forth. Ideally you should have as few threads as possible. If you're also running your host
sequencer on the same system as the running instances, it might be wise to reserve a core for it.
To keep it simple, set the amount of threads to your amount of cores. If you run into
performance issues, lower the amount of threads.
