Hello,
A newbie to the forum here...So much information here to go through so I though I'd cheat a little by getting some directions.
If anyone understands the title, I really don't have to explain much other than below.
Current Mac: Mac Pro (late 2013), 3.5GHz 6-core Xeon E5 w/64 GB RAM (used as DAW master).
Library template size: Max. 2000 MIDI tracks/single articulations, probably could live with 1000 for now. May build more slaves.
Template Instrument/audio: ONLY 2 audio I/O per VEP Kontakt instance i.e. 1 stereo output for all 16 articulations in Kontakt multi patch "Violins 1 - Long". I'll export all audio to PT after mock up.
Primary DAWs: DP 9.5, Pro Tools 2018 HD. Sometime with Cubase and Studio1 4.
My primary DAW could be changed to Cubase or S1 if there are specific advantages for this build.
No video necessary other than onboard graphics.
No wifi necessary
Absolutely no other purpose other than as a VEP server.
I'm open to using a straight forward PC slave, but please tell convince me because I have a tendency to smash things that look Windows, lol.
All advice welcomed! Just don't ask me why I do this....
THANKS FOLKS!
