Is it normal that increasing the driver's buffer size/latency increases library loading times?
I noticed that some Kontakt libraries lately, especially those with more complex interfaces/functions/effects started taking quite a while to load, but after a ton of troubleshooting I realized that changing the buffer size of my driver can alter the loading times of certain libraries significantly, sometimes by 15 seconds!?
This seems to be about the loading times of the library's interface, not the samples and not Kontakt itself. One extreme example is Electric Keys Diamond, which takes 5 seconds to load with a Buffer Length of 256 samples, but over 20 seconds to load with a Buffer Length of 2048 samples! (Yes, I know you should try to keep the latency low, but big sessions need big buffer sizes.)
Maybe some of you can test if they get similar results? Ideally with modern libraries that don't use too many samples, but where the interface always takes a couple seconds to load.
I already tested it with: Different PCs, different DAWs, different audio interfaces, different ASIO drivers, Kontakt Player, Kontakt standalone, different Kontakt 7 versions.
(Here are some PC specs: Win10, Ryzen 5900X, Libraries and Kontakt installed on m.2 SSDs, Focusrite interface)
