We will see, the guy in the shop proposed 2 x 3500 USD PC ! not 2 x 600 USD
PC

The VSL EXS is in the shop next week ! Follow VSL Conference !!!!!!!!!

Also to use a PC for this seem VERY stupid, you do not need XP to run a
Sampler ! you can throw 99 % of the window code to run a sampler.

Also you will have to pay me to buy a PC, I do not want that machine in my
studio !

I would prefer to buy a dedicated sampler ! that does not crash every 15
minutes !

Supit8tracks did some test with it¹s 1.25 GHz MAC and manage to have 270
simultaneous EXS voices, that is enough for an orchestra !

By Monday I should have finish to convert one of my Virtuoso song to use
only EXS 24 with the Akai library, we will see  how much CPU is left !
