One thing I know for sure.
Stoopid FinMac (2k6 and 2k7) loads all the AU V.I.s I have and disables
them if they are not Native-Instruments, and this costs me cpu/memory load.
For this reason, on my machines, Kontakt 2 standalone runs much better,
and I won't be surprised if it sounds better because of the lesser
resource taxing.
That is an interesting observation -- I wonder why anybody at either MM
or NI would think that was a smart idea?
Well, I can think of why:
[/conspiracy theorist mode ON]
things will run better if not using the internal AU/VI, which requires
the purchase of the full standalone version directly from NI or
indirectly through MM. In either case, the included version is simply a
loss-leader to force those who want a better musical performance to
spend more money, increasing NI and/or MM profits.
[/conspiracy theorist mode OFF]
One would hope this isn't the case, that it wasn't done intentionally,
but with the programming prowess at both MM and NI, it seems that this
couldn't have happened "by accident."
