Gary or anyone else in the know, can you tell us when the next update will be released, and if it will enable DFD streaming from the Kontakt Player?

Thanks!

Dave

The only thing anybody has said recently is that it should be very soon.

Dave,

No date has been announced because there are still some small player issues to iron out and we don't know how long it will take to do that. We have no intention of releasing this without everything ready to go. Gary will make the release announcement when things are finished.

As to features (DFD and others): A complete listing of features will be posted when the update is released. DFD is a strong possibility.

Tom and Shazbot,

Thanks for the information.

GPO is a great product and, I'm confident, it will only get better and better with time.

I've been using DFD inside of Kontakt with GPO. About the only instrument that appears to save more memory is the piano. Memory usage is close with or without DFD on the other instruments. I have noticed that polyphony is lower with DFD enabled so I'm back to running without DFD with GPO.

What exactly is DFD? Direct From
Disk...steaming from the hard drive similar to Gigastudio.

I told Gary what to do to speed things up. GET RID OF THE "SMALL PAYERS" AND REPLACE THEM WITH FULL SIZE PLAYERS! :D

Styxx,

If you had ever seen a picture of me you'd know that I'm one of the small players to which you refer. Goodbye everybody!! It was great talking with you! Say "hi" to the wife and kids!! See you around someday!
