GPO is not optimum on Mac because of the lousy job the makers of Kontakt Player have done porting the product to Mac. GPO uses Kontakt Player, made by Native Instruments. You need an absolute minimum of 1 GB of RAM in order to manage ensembles of up to 5 or 6 instruments. Those of us on Macs are hoping that a new version of Kontakt Player will be forthcoming that will solve the problems we now face.
Yipes! And I have one gig of memory in my new 2.0 gig dual processor Mac. Does that mean if I upgraded to two gigs that I'll get 10 to 12 instruments? How generous! (read with extreme sarcasm). I'm starting a score with triple woodwinds, full brass, percussion and strings. I was hoping to buy Garritan but it seems ridiculous to even try with these limitations. I'm still tempted to buy GPO while the price is low, but it seems a dicey proposition since I wouldn't be able to use it very much.
Darcy, thanks for the notes on *channel* changes to get pizz. I told my friend and he says it works like a charm.
