All.
Heres what i’m really struggling with.
Assuming that i’m gonna load up on up to 10 traks various high cpu usage orchestra lib vsti’s.
And assuming i’m running 30 traks of normal multitrak audio old style…
I might be running reaps or rb for example.
What is the best processor that wont break the bank ?
can a latest gen i5 do it it ? a I7 ? a budget ryzen 3 or 5 ?
OR do i have to take out a mortgage …lol…on a i9 or thresadripper ?

How are you guys dealing with the high rersource useage of various orch lib vst’s ?

Now i’m doing more work in bb due to the extra utility traks can i happily load up various orch
Libs on various bb traks. Reason i ask is so far i typically would use low resource plug ins in
Bb …which is reason i like the computer music mag uk plug ins…both fx and instruments.

The issue in bb is what processor (without breaking the bank) would let me run flawlessly genned rt’s and various orch libs at one time ?

In conclusion chappys how many instances of heavy duty vst’s can your pc’s handle concurrently ? much as i like the m1 processors , it would mean a lot of work going over to the
Dark side…from win.
(btw my wife just got a refurb pc with win 11 on…a i5 8250 …for her work…she loves it.
But its not for audio. Just regular low usage stuff.)
