I just finished porting my guitar library from Kontakt 5.8 to HISE and was positively surprised about the memory and CPU usage of HISE(compiled to 64 bit VST)

Memory usage Kontakt: 190MB
Memory usage HISE: 103MB

CPU difference while playing the exact same thing:

The timer in kontakt is set to 1ms resolution while the one in hise is 4ms, having them set at the same value results in about twice the cpu usage for kontakt instead of three times. but the HISE version has arrays of twice the size compared to the kontakt script, so it iterates over more data per timer tick.

Hopefully I don't encounter any issues because this really makes me want to go 100% HISE in the future.

No problems in windows 10 - Reaper 64 bit and the CPU usage looked fine.

Released my experimental guitar library yesterday, available for Kontakt 5.8+ and HISE/VST

This is a small experimental library I have been working on for a while, the main idea was to sample real picked intervals.

Intro price 5$(until march 15th), normal price 9.99$.

30 day refund policy.

Size info:
497 Samples
Kontakt: 407 MB size on disk
VST: 170MB samples, 11.4MB VST

@orange I don't care about what most distrubutors do as that number is pure greed. And I personally don't care about licenses with my own libraries. I'm just wondering if @Lindon actually believes that revenue split is fair or not.

Why would 5-10% or less not be viable?

@Christoph-Hart Yea it has to learn which samples to keep which can often cause dropouts the first time you play. The only advantage I can think of would be that you don't have to unfreeze to make edits. So it allows you to work with live tracks a bit longer before running out of memory and start freezing tracks.

It is pretty much just a convenience thing until you run into CPU bottlenecks and are forced to freeze tracks anyway.
