Piano samples RAM?

2003-07-20 by esiegel2

Hello:  

I am a pianist who is looking for the best exsII piano sample 
library.  I am grateful for all the responses on this thread.  For 
the Bardstown library, would it be useable on a G4 550 laptop with 
768 RAM?  What does it mean for overall performance that it is so 
RAM hungry?

I am using the Steinway C from East West and am...underwhelmed.  So 
far, the most playable sampled piano I have used is the resident 
samples in my ensoniq ZR76, which includes the Coakley Perfect 
Piano.  Hardly perfect, and the samples are much shorter and fewer 
than some of the libraries, but the integration is better, the 
velocity curves and sample mapping to velocity work better for me.

Thanks.

Eric
