sampletank 2L probs with Tracktion

[johnnyringo]

hi

SampleTank2L gives me trouble in Tracktion when trying to import wav files. Playback of the presets seems to have no problems but I want to take advantage of the stretch synthesis and import my own sounds also.

Having seen the thread regards turning off Realtime Priority mode I thought that must solve the problem but it does not and makes no difference.

Sampletank2L gives problems whenever I attempt to import a wav file to create a sound myself as this freezes tracktion 99% of the time. Occasionally I do manage to get a sound imported but is rare - anyone have any ideas on this as IK Multimedia support is non existent despite 3 emails in their direction.

My PC is AMD 2800, 1G RAM, 80G hard drive at 7200, NVidea 128MB video card

thanks

Try this solution: download and install Chainer (it's a free download):

Chainer is an ultra-light and CPU efficient VST/VSTi host. It's designed to layer multiple VSTi together, but I mainly use it for sketch and composing work with instruments such as Sampletank and others.

Bring up SampleTank inside Chainer and see if you can do the import from there.

Isn't Chainer payware?

Yes and no - it's a free download for full functionality but with saving disabled. Once you register you can save your VSTi stacks. Since I don't play live, it's a perfect solution for me when I need to do quick sketch work. I will get around to paying the reg fee though, just because the programmer deserves it for a great idea

hi

I am not familiar with this vst and to me I can achieve all that it seems to do just in using Tracktion.
However, if you are saying that somehow this thing helps improve some sort of stability in VSTs and maybe serves as a protective wrapper within which the problematic VST I have can live nicely I will give it a whirl

thanks
