Hi guys,
Recently stumbled across this (admittedly this has been bouncing around for a couple of years now). It is a live composition video presented by Michael Patti of Cinesamples. And much like being inspired by Theodore Kruger and his prv workflow, I'm in awe of this setup, in addition to how Michael's approached composing on the fly.

It appears his template has a ton of libraries, instruments, as well as a ton of ks/articulations, each to it's own track. Is SPlat capable of handling something like this? Or is it more determinant on the system you're relying on? Now granted, he and his company (I'd suspect) would have the dollars to throw at a set-up capable of running such a monster. (he did say at about 02:30 that his whole template was on a PC) - How can the rest of us approach something of this magnitude? I'm inspired to dive into something like this, and I love the fact that he has everything at his fingertips.
Just for fun, began to create a rudimentary orchestral template that was approaching 90 tracks using all of the instruments in EastWest's Composer Cloud offering, and Sonar, (in reality most likely my computer - lol) began to struggle (locked Sonar up in fact). Based upon my specs below, should my set-up be able to handle something on this scale? And...to continue with the "20 questions" ;o) Probably unique to each user, but anyone here approach composing/orchestrating in Sonar in a similar fashion, on this scale?
