Just for organisational reasons, I prefer to run one instance of my VST and set up the instruments I will be using within it. I have tried it with projects running large numbers (20+) of instruments, both using one instance on a master track and separate instance for each instrument. There was little difference in CPU usage ... I saved about 2% CPU usage by running instruments from just one instance of the VST.Thanks
So am I using kontakt as a vst on the master track? Or should I use kontakt as a standalone and then route it in? That's another part I'm confused about. What is the most efficient way to use a program like kontakt where I will be using many different instruments? If I keep adding a new vst for each instrument the CPU power get used up pretty quick.

Im just not sure how to Change the output routing in kontakt. Are you familiar with kontakt enough to walk me through that part?
