Wonder how it will work with a soft synth on the same box

Let's say you have SP running and a soft synth on the same computer. Will they play nicely together? It appears to eat a lot of clock cycles by itself...

Hi, on an iMac i7 with 8GB RAM its almost unstoppable. I can run multiple midi soft synths without any real issues.
On a macbook Core2 Duo with 4GB it works well providing you are not doing too much else besides the midi conversion and the soft synths, although its surprising how much you can get away with. Latency on either system is 20-30 msec from plucking the string to the synth receiving the midi code depending on the string and fret.

Hope this helps.
