Hi Frank,
how thoroughly dissapointing for you. Tis a bit hard to beleive that you'd have to load the full gm bank for each of the midi channels.
Normally ( if you weren't using it with arranger software) would you only load the instruments required for a particular piece of music. Not a terribly satisfactory method in this day & age.

Rikki, I am not certain on what the issue is but apparently NI knows about it and plan a fix for it. The way it works now is that you have to load the GM bank for each of the 16 channels. This takes way to much memory and takes to long. You should only need to load the wavetable once and set midi to Omni and use the proper instruments on each channel.

I guess I am a little surprised that a high calibre company like NI manages to get this wrong. LiveSynthPro was written by one person in their spare time - and got it right. Now Kontakt 2 is an extraordinarily complex piece of software. Once they get it working it will be very powerful indeed. So I have have high hopes but need to wait a long time.
