Yes, im right. I tryed it again in my computer. I use GPO, and is normal to use 4 instances or MORE. So i need 1GB for samples and 1GB for the sampler!
Yes, SFZ is very nice, i use it a lot, you dont care about how many instances.

So buy more RAM then. :shrug:

Well, my point was, if the standalone can manage 64 channels simultaneously, the VSTi could too. But, because the 16 channels limit, im wasting lots of RAM unnecesarely. I will try to ask in the kontakt forums if there is a way to share the ram use.

Hi, I'm currently working on a vst-midi plug and a ksp script that breaks the 16 channel barrier. It probably will be limited to 8*16 channels (could be more though).
It also allows to send 16 channel information to a single instrument using a single channel in k2, + a few goodies like aftertouch, sysex, note off value to other ksp scripts.
You may want to check this link in a few days (if it keeps raining over here).
