Advice regarding samplers
-
In my project, (an accordion sample library), to change registers I have it setup with loadsampleMaps, however playing a real accordion I can freely change registers while playing notes and it will change directly to the new register.
So my setup with loadSampleMap is not so well planned...hehe...
So I thought I should have a sampler for each register but, every register is about 500mb and the accordion have 5 registers on the treble side and 6 on the bass side, that will be around 500 x 11 = 5.5GB loaded all the time, will that be a problem you think?

@ulrik I am not 100% sure, but it doesn't seem to be a good idea to change samplemaps while playing anyway...
In your file size calculation, do you take into consideration the HLAC compression format of Hise?
-
Disk streaming...
-
@ustk No, I didn't think of that, I see now that it will decrease the size a lot, I guess half the size so it will be around 2-2,5gb, that doesn't sound so much but I wonder if it will affect the performance of the plugin, what do you think?
-
@d-healey Yes of course, haha...why didn't I think of that, I guess Hise will take care of that automatically, or is there some preferences I have change?
-
No if there is ine core feature of HISE‘s sampler module then it‘s efficient disk streaming so you should be OK with this amount of samples.

@Christoph-Hart Great, thank you!
-
But definitely don‘t try to load samplemaps during playback - it is not supposed to be a real time operation.
-
@Christoph-Hart No I will not
