Wonder if I can ask about using the Multiport solution.
1. What is the difference in performance between 1 instance with multiple midi ports vs multiple instances?
2. I am currently using an instance per instrument type, for example Violins with 8-12 midi channels for each type of articulation. Because each instrument group is a separate instance, each has its own audio channel into Logic enabling post processing and allowing volume automation.
If I use the multiport option, am I going to have to have extra audio channels in VEP to route to each group? If so will I end up with the same performance load as my current method (multiple instances)?
Or is the best performance to be had with multiport even if I add more audio into Logic from VEP?
3. How would I continue to route audio to each insrtument group using the multiport method?
4. If I have a load of instances each with a VI loaded with patches, is there a way to merge them into one instance rather than have to recreate them again in one instance?
