[thierry.ecuvillon]

hi, so i want to use vienna libriary.

i don't know:

1/is it better technically using logic node ? vienna ensemble pro on 4 mac mini ? or 1 mac pro 12 processor ?

2/for licence (logic , other plug , vsl instrument, and vsl mir) if i use 4 mac mini , does i need for the same plug in 4 licence or just one on the main computor ?

3/for mixing, is it better to use all audio track in each mac mini, all in the main computor, or all mac mini in audio mix table ,

Thank so much for your help .

(in french it will be the best but if not, it will be ok :)

1-You don't need Logic node with VE Pro. One powerfull computer have some advantage: licences, routing, ease to use. 

2-You need to authorize all 4 computers. VE Pro comes with 3 licences but MIR is a single licence. 

3-Je ne comprend pas bien cette question... Tu peux mixer dans VE Pro sur les les Mac Mini ou sortir des canaux indépendants dans l'ordinateur principal. C'est une question de préférences personnelles.

3/i mean what is better for cpu

each session per group in each mac mini or all audio come back in the main computor, thr server in fact ...

thank for the andswer :)

If you're going to use a lot of plugins, it may be better for cpu to use the remote computers for mixing. But you can't share the sends between each computers. So if you create a send with a reverb on computer 1, you have to create another one on computer 2. But it make sense to use insert plugins on remote computers. 

I'm still questionning if using lots of VE Pro audio outputs takes more CPU than using just one stereo out though.
