Hack for polyphony in Session Strings 2? SOLVED

naniscola

Before hitting "send", I tested all with the Kontakt 6 player: everything is OK - so it has to be a problem with Kontakt 7...

Hi folks,

I just acquired Komplete and was curious about the strings.

Unfortunately you can play in normal mode (see screenshot) only 2 voices at the same time on one track before the 3rd or 4th is swallowed.

A workaround would be to split all the voices to different tracks, what means multiple instances of SS2 open at the same time. I'm on an Apple M2 so I guess there would be enough headroom of RAM, when no exaggerating.

Strangely, when in "Smart Voice Split" Mode, there are more possible voices than in normal mode. Why?

I tweaked around with the RAM eg. resonance settings in the preferences, but to no avail.

Do you experience the same limitations

?

Is this a bug from SS2? Is "Pro" better or do you prefer libraries like "BBC Spitfire" or "VSL Vienna" for strings?

I would appreciate your hints!

Thank you in advance!

Alex

My setup is:

MBP M2

Logic 10.7.9

Kontakt 7

I wrote it at the top of my post: just go to an older Kontakt Player version: No. 7 was a fail, but 6 did the job!

@naniscola You wrote solved so I assume the issue is solved? Can you share how?
