Confirmed here! So there is still a huge problem with memory management here. I also tried again with switching the binaural pianos out and they did not crash but I am finding the larger Key Switched instruments are the most prone to crash. The real problem is that we are just talking about using ONE preset slot. It really becomes problematic if you have let's say a multi or different parts on the other available slots.

One thing that I observed about the new streaming options, say "Small" vs. "Large", is that the presets load up much quicker with the "Small" setting. They take forever with "Large". "Medium" seems to be about the same as before the most recent v4.0.3 update. I could almost go make a pot of coffee in the amount of time it took to load the Red Strat Full Keyswitch using the "Large" streaming setting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abacab 8,029 Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) It's a bit better than it was. I installed the v4.0.3 when it first released. Then earlier today I re-installed "ST4_MAX_Instruments_Installer_1_1", followed by the "ST4_MAX_Sound_Library_Update_1_3". That seems to have helped for today, as I didn't get the insta-crashes with certain instruments. The memory use also seemed to stay in line as I was auditioning various presets. Hard to say if there are other variables at play here, and just didn't hit the rough patch today. Time will tell! Looking forward to 4.0.4!!!
