Re: Linuxsampler (windows) doesn't load TBO

You said 1600MB before crashing, looks like about to hit the 2GB ceiling.
I suspect vista32 by default does not allow to address more than 2GB so perhaps this could be the reason.
I don't know if vista32 handles this differently but I know that people on XP set the large address aware bit in their audio apps in order to
address up to 3.5GB per process.
you can try to set the LAA (large address aware) bit in the LS binary (linuxsampler.exe) (if vista supports it) and see what happens.
look at these links for useful infos:

hmmm Vista seems to handle it differently than XP:
I think the first link describes what you need to do in Vista:
http://en.wiki.mcneel.com/default.aspx/ ... Aware.html
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms791558.aspx
anyway it's worth experimenting.
Or perhaps it could be that LS is somewhere using a signed index to access the samples so samples larger than 2GB cause problems.
I'll ask Christian tomorrow to see whether LS is 4GB clean.
let us know if you make some progress so we put it on the FAQ on the LS site.
