WHEN IT COMES TO SYMPHONIC AND HORNS EAST WEST COLOSSUS IS MUCH BETTER THAN A MOTIF OR PHANTOM BUT I DID NOTICE THAT MOTIF AND PHANTOM HAD BETTER SYNTHS BUT AS FOR SYMPHONIC AND CHOIRS AND HORNS AND TRUMPETS THINGS LIKE THAT I BELIEVE COLOSSUS SOUNDS MUCH RICHER.........COLOSSUS IS LIKE A BUILT VIRTUAL WORKSTATION LIKE A YAMAHA MOTIF OR ROLAND PHANTOM
Haha! I see we aren't lacking the usual content of smart-assed comments here, either. And I thought that stuff was exclusive to the geek pages and over on the Ernie Ball forum. Ahhh. Refreshing!
I think I'll refrain from asking questions here since nobody wants to know what system I'm running with what anyway, right?
Nice sounding stuff, though. I'm looking forward to trying it out -even if I am but a lowly drummer/guitarist in a humble Sonar 7 Producer home studio.
I read on another comment in another thread on youtube that normally windows XP and vista (32 bit versions) normally can only use about 3 to 4 gig. However, each application on it's own can run can use only 2 Gig. There is a workaround to this , where you have to change a few settings in the boot.ini or something. I will look it up.he said that I should do a search for "3GB switch boot.ini" in google, and then it should pop up how to do it. maybe a good idea for all 32 bit users. more=better
If you buy the new version of it (called goliath) from them, you will get a new interface (so different engine and look), but the same sounds. That version (and not this one in the video with the blue kontakt player/engine) is 64 bit compatible, just like all their PLAY editions of thier older stuff.
by the way, "PLAY" is the name of their new (own) engine/user interface
Wait... does that mean all EWQL programs which use kontakt only work in 32bit? But I guess in 64bit windows you'll have more RAM anyway, seeing as what remainder you get in 32bit includes graphic RAM. What happens if you use 2 EWQL vsts instead of one? Better use of RAM?
I assume it will use more RAM, if everything except the VSTI is 64 (so meaning you have alot of ram (more than 4), an operating system that is 64 etc. ..but not sure.
However, colossus works pretty well for me too on a 32 system. If you use orchestra gold, however,it seems to need alot more resources.The things that especially contribute alot when it comes to processing power seem to be putting VST effects on BIG virtual instruments Like colossus. Without much VST effects on colussus it though.
And very important are the instruments you use. Like a piano on colussus 'eats' about 10 times the amount of resources that other VSTI's use. You can simply see this by the size on the Kontakt screen. Also: the faster they load, the lighter they are. So just not adding too much piano's can help out alot and save resources...but all that pretty much speaks for itself
Hmm I use gold XP and I never get any dropouts, even with over 15 instruments at once, compared to plugins like Nexus or Waves effects it's nothixcng. I usually don't exceed 2GB of RAM per each instance of EWQL so I dunno, it might work fine in 64bit if my DAW recognizes more RAM.
I use DFD (direct from disk), Asio4All @ 11ms, any EWQL settings are at default. I've always used a quad core CPU for EW stuff, never peaked with AMD 9500 and corei7.
just go to the Native Instruments website and look up the Tutorials...they have them and you can see exactly what to press and what to do to become a Jeti Master :)
actually, excepting the first bit, the rest doesn't sound so good. but East West is extraordinary - particularly the Quantum Leap stuff (Symph, Choir, Passion, Gypsy, Ministry...) WOW!
Colossus has great sounds (the violin,cellos,etc are killer) but the fact that it is only 8-part multitimbral and that it has a crap manual,is really a bummer
i have this and i gotta say, the patches on this thing feel more like glorified midi patches than all its hyped up to be. it does have a few good things about it though..
i wanna understand something about that program: can i import midi files to make them play as real instruments and then making mp3 files? sorry for my bad english!
new soft synth are the same,or better more powerful of hardware synth,so don't bore us making an aimless list of the stuff you have.i think no one gives a fuck.

I'm not sure, but you can't use all your RAM I guess.
I read somewhere that the application could only use 2GB with 32-bit VSTs, but it may be wrong.
Anyway, Colossus works just fine for me with 4GB.
