Of course you can also load the Layers with the “midi programs” option in the Layer pull-down
menu. Use this menu also for an overview of all your existing banks and MIDI programs.
Independence can manage up to 16,383 different banks. Each bank can contain up to 128 different
MIDI programs, from 0 to 127 - so a maximum of more than 2,000,000 assignable MIDI programs!
Pre-cache
Independence is a sample-based workstation. So you have to keep in mind that Independence has
to manage several gigs of audio files simultaneously. This causes continous loading and unloading
processes - which finally take time...
To accelerate this process and thus your work, we integrated a powerful “pre-cache” option.
All Layers that are part of the pre-cache option you select, get pre-loaded into Independence and are
available immediately when you activate them - without any additional loading time.
“Pre-cache” is extremely usable for any kind of live perfomance with Independence: Simply select
your pre-cache option and you can witch between several gigabyte large instruments immediately!
IMPORTANT: The usability of the ”Pre-cache” feature does not depend on the power of your
computer. It does NOT use additonal RAM like streaming or other resources of
your computer when activated!
