Title says it all...thinking of getting a large multi-instrument library for UVI, I'd have to be able to manage RAM use, as I can with Kontakt, to build the kind of ensembles I want.

I did download the Workstation manual but a search for "RAM" and "purge" didn't answer this.

Any ideas?

I would like to know as well. I rarely use it nowadays but I remember had a few issues with RAM in the past.

Can be done via scripting only, AFAIK.

I've asked UVI, which answered indirectly, saying that a purging facility is not needed for the library I was asking about. I have asked again in a polite "yes or no please" format. I'll report back if I learn more.

If you're thinking about something to purge only played samples according to a song, there is no such thing.
Some soundbank do however features a way to only load samples according to what's used (mic settings and stuff like that)

In any case, UVIWorkstation stream from the HD and because of the FLAC format, the preload is quite minimal (100 ms when using the SSD settings)

Hope this clarify things.

Thanks Olivier, your colleague just responded to this effect.

Can you purge unused samples, Kontakt style, in UVI Workstation?
