    Hey,

    I'm currently making a template for myself and I'm wondering which is the best way to organize my Kontakt instruments.
    So, for example, having 10 instances of Kontakt versus 1 "main" Kontakt with 9 MIDI tracks.

    Is one take up less CPU or it doesn't make a difference? etc.

    Best,

    10 instances of Kontakt will use more additional RAM. You should be fine with multiple instruments per instance for the most part. If a particular sample library is CPU intensive, you put it in its own instance alone.
