    Hello

    I have the VSL Synchron Pianos D-274 and Bösendorfer Imperial, running on a 2019 Core i7 Macbook at the moment

    Here is an example when using 3 stereo microphones (Room-Mix, Tube, Mid 1):

    D-274 loads 58626 samples taking 7.16 GB

    Imperial loads 64986 samples taking 0.74 GB

    (MacOS Activity Monitor shows comparable results)

    Is it normal? What happens?

    Thanks

    Are they both the same version, i.e., Standard or Full?

    Both full versions, but just I found why it happened: you can actually set a different Preload Size for each Synchron piano, I completely forgot about that
