I'm talking about performance, specifically Mac performance. AU
performance is objectively much better than performance via an
external host, like Garritan Studio -- AU supports greater polyphony
with fewer dropouts and less distortion on the same system. This is
simply not up for debate.

The fact is AU/VST stinks in comparison.
That's utter nonsense. AU/VST playback has lower latency and is
more efficient, allowing more simultaneous instruments/polyphony
on the same hardware compared to a MIDI solution like Garritan
Studio, which requires more computational overhead.
AU/VST playback also hooks into Human Playback much better.
"utter nonsense" may be a bit strong here -- how can you call
"utter nonsense" something which someone else has heard with his
own ears? I think this may be one of those "if the computer is set
up one way A sounds better, if it's set up differently B sounds
better."
But I am sure Gerald is able to distinguish what he has heard and
knows which sounds better to him. :-)
