Up until I purchased GA5, I was using SE 4 which could only load one kit per instance. As a sample heavy producer, I found my self loading many instances. And to be fair, although I did the test by loading 12 tracks, I only did that as it highlights the increased CPU use, something that’s harder to notice (ie hidden) when only 2 or 3 are loaded. It’s simply to demonstrate that more CPU is being used ‘under the hood’ wether you notice the bump or not.
As for clarification/confirmation on this, I welcome any other GA5 users to do similar tests on their own systems and post the results here.
