Well, large orchestral libraries want more than one machine. But depending on the programs, I load about 25 - 35 EXSfuls of VSL on my 1.5GB dual gig G4. The good news is that unless you're playing your own harp glisses, VSL doesn't take a lot of polyphony, since it's recorded with short reverb. And yes, without disrecommending any other libs, I heartily recommend VSL. It's awesome. -- Nick Batzdorf - editor Virtual Instruments magazine (the world of softsynths and samplers) www.Virtualinstrumentsmag.com 1-877 VImagzn (846-2496), 818/905-9101, cell 590-9101
