Lower settings load less of the sample into the memory so will decrease your memory footprint. The DFD buffer setting determines how much of the sample is pre-loaded into the memory.

When using DFD, only the first part of the sample is loaded into the RAM.

Also note the amount of RAM used!ĭFD (Direct From Disk) settings should also be considered here. Notice the yellow indicator below after purging the Armageddon Ensemble patch (form Heavyocity’s Damage library), then playing a few notes. I’d certainly recommend using SSDs if you use this method. It’s important to bear in mind if you decide to use this method and you’re using hard disk drives to host your samples, you may experience a few clicks/pops/missing notes on the first run through as the samples load from the disk. Then as you input your MIDI it’ll load the used samples in on the fly. This will unload any unused samples.Īlternatively, you could start with all samples purged within an instrument. Once you’ve successfully laid down your part you could then simply reset the markers, run through the part from start to finish, then update the sample pool.

You could start with all samples within an instrument loaded (like it loads up by default). There’s a few ways you can go about implementing the integrated purge function.

Reloads All Samples – Loads all samples contained within the instrument.

Purge All Samples – Unloads all samples.

Update Sample Pool – Purges all the unused samples.

This function removes the markers but doesn’t purge anything so keeps the samples loaded.

Reset Markers – When a sample is played it marks it as being used by Kontakt.

Here’s the available functions available in the Purge menu: This can be seen in Spitfire Audio’s Albion One Library below. Some libraries allow you to do this from within the library UI whereby you’re able to deselect certain articulations or disable certain mic positions. Utilizing the purge function can free up RAM by unloading any unused samples. Keeping that memory footprint as small as possible is important for obvious reasons. Large multi-sampled orchestral libraries can potentially use large amounts of RAM. This is something that could prove to be invaluable for composers in particular due to the nature of the instruments they’ll typically be hosting in their templates. Keeping in line with my recent tips on how to optimize Kontakt, here’s a great way of conserving memory.
