Hello all ,

Did someone manage to play chords (with or without sustain pedal) with the preset " String Ensemble"

from "NI Symphony Series String Ensemble" without glitch /or clips audio ?

I should mention that the library is on a separate SSD .


OSX Yosemite 10.10.5 / Kontakt 5.5.1.451.




Any help would be welcome

Don't use the sustain pedal it doesn't work like LASS2. You can use it but release it everytime you switch chords (like you would play a regular piano)

Also, in the mixer settings, choose divisi A or B as opposed to the full ensemble. Then chords sound pretty georgeous

Cheers

 

Thanks zero-frag for your help

But without using sustain pedal, I can't play complex chord without " glich ",my Samsung SSD 850 Pro can not follow

Hi,
what's your ASIO/AU buffer size?

It could be one particular Kontakt filter causing audible pops. When I tweaked Spitfire Harp, I came across AES filter, which caused dropouts on 48k sample rate.

Testing this for you

Im on PC I7 2600k - 24gb ram - 7200 Toshiba 4 terabyte sample library drive

Kontakt 55.0.049

Focusrite 6i6
Studio one - in latency 6.73 - out latency 6.73 - 48k - 128 samples

I'm ok up to around 8-10 notes at the same time without the sustain pedal
I think its only polyphonic to a point on my end then it cuts off the first note in the chord

With the sustain pedal its fine up to 7 notes, works fine no issues.
8 notes up sometimes I hear a little click or pop when I let go of the pedal.

Not sure if this helps. I'm on a different platform

I'm not at my audio machine now, will check the AES when I get to it...
