I read Jason's thread about more than one VDL2 player for more than 8 voices, but what about other Kontakt players? I use Garritan Personal Orchestra for my wind sounds that have their own Kontakt Player. Using Bidule, will the computer recognize the GPO and VDL2 players? I'm hoping to do this without having to sink MORE money into buying Kontakt 2.
I emailed both Kontakt and Sibelius about this. I haven't heard back from Kontakt and Sibelius didn't understand the question. To be honest Jim, I would trust you guys on what to do before I would their tech team!
Yes - a ";host"; program such as Bidule or V-Stack will load any Virtual Instrument plugins that are installed on your computer (such as VDL2 or GPO). Using this type of setup makes it easy to mix and match your various software instruments.
Bidule does have a free ";beta"; version that you can download to try it out. Check them at http://www.plogue.com

I need some advice then. Will having 2 Kontakt Players, KOMPAKT, Bidule, AND Sibelius all open at once still work well with only 1GB RAM?

Loading all those elements should work just fine. The main thing that will affect how good this performs is the quantity and size of instruments you'll have loaded and performing at one time. That will have a definite affect on how much RAM is necessary. That aspect is, of course, different for everyone.

Don't forget all the other things your computer is doing *besides* your music... Turning everything else off will make a great difference.
