I have MP but think it dates back to Sampletank 2.5.

how does it relate to Miroslav Philharmonik? Does Sampletank include the sounds in MP? Do you think that will handle running IK within MainStage?ДЄlso, I assume I don't HAVE TO run these inside MainStage, right? I'm just speaking from being mostly familiar with MainStage and am getting started with VIs and VSTs (one in the same?).ДЄlso, thanks for bringing up Sampletank.

Sorry, I probably should've mentioned that I'm running MainStage on a Mid-2012 MacBook Pro with a Core i7, 2.6 MHz processor and 16GB of RAM. Taking into account sound, playability and resource use the only 2 external VI's I use in every one of my MainStage concerts are Pianoteq AU, and B-5 (hosted inside UVI Workstation), or VB3 AU.

I have yet to find anything in Sampletank that is better than what is available in the free Logic AU's. Speaking as an owner of Komplete, multiple UVI VI's, Sampletank 2.5 and 3 and many other 3rd party VI's I only use them if I cannot get the sound I want out of the Logic AU's. You will have to switch programs on the fly to go between stand alone instances of these hosts and MainStage. The alternative of running these hosts as standalone defeats the main reason of using a master host like MainStage. unless the VI is also available as an AU, like Pianoteq, requires you to run a host (eg IK) inside a host (MainStage) chewing up RAM and CPU.ДЄ MainStage concert with patches that use multiple different hosts uses a lot more system overhead just managing the sounds. So running anything from NI, UVI, IK etc. Logic VI's can only be run in Logic or MainStage. I feel Keyscape would be more than enough and cover all of the bases, but I feel Pianoteq would save some coin and still cover what I'm wanting without sacrificing quality.ДЄll VI's can run inside MainStage. I'd like to have a good variety of a couple different grand pianos, an upright, and a realistic tack or honky-tonk sounding piano. For pianos, I'm debating between Pianoteq and Keyscape. I like the sound and look of Miroslav Philharmonik 2 so far and am leaning that direction. That's not to say that I wouldn't ever record later on, so that would still be a consideration. I'm assuming I'd play these from within MainStage (although I'm curious to hear what host you use or play them with?), so the application would mostly be live performance-based. I've had MainStage a little over a year, and the only significant plug-in purchase/upgrade I've made is Omnisphere.ДЄs Black Friday approaches (as well as a Miroslav Philharmonik 2 currently being on sale), I'd like to scope and pick up an orchestral library and piano.
