I've got a question regarding East West Platinum Symphony. I just installed it on a new Mac Quad G5 desktop with 4.5G RAM, running it in Logic Pro 7.1, and the snaps, crackles and pops are just terrible. The samples are running from an external Maxtor FW800 drive. I can't even play 2 notes without the yellow DFD light flashing and going from yellow to red as the sounds just die. I've messed with the latency settings in the Audio Hardware control panel in Logic to no avail. I've been running these same samples on my 3-year-old G4 laptop just fine (1.33 Ghz, 2G RAM)

Is there a setting I'm missing, or something I should know about the NI Kompakt player that will allow me to actually use these samples?

Thanks for any info you can supply!

Sincerely,
hahaworld

Did you go to the East West site and download the most recent DFD file? With the new Pro XP Editions, the DFD is embedded in the program much like Kontakt 2. Older Kompakt players (such as the one used in Platinum) required a separate download to incorporate the DFD function into the Kompakt player. Go to the East West site and look for "updates" or "technical help". All of the files you need should be there.
