    I upgraded from the standard library of the Trumpet in C to the extended library, and now my patch list in VI seems to have a bunch of duplicate patches, since the extended library also contains all of the standard patches. Can I delete the standard library patches to save space?

    Hi John,

    I´d keep the Standard Library, as the patches are named slightly different and are sometimes mapped in a different way. This way you can always open older songs.

    You could also keep the samples on a slower drive (if you want to save disk space on your SSD drive), and from now on simply use only the FULL Library patches.

    OTOH, the Trumpet in C Standard Library is "just" a 622 MB download, so you´ll always have access to it, if you need it. Installed size: 1.3 GB

    Best,

    Paul
