User Manual : Optimizing Pyramix
external clocks, managing time code, record streams, playback streams, not to mention possible FX
such as EQ, Dynamics, Reverb, etc. Therefore Pyramix offers a few DSP saving modes in the Settings
> Mixer Settings, General page such as:
Player / Recorder mode
Transforms the mixer's full nodal matrix topology into a "diagonal" topology where only the direct paths
are computed (i.e. Input 1 to Output 1, Input 2 to Output 2, Input n to Output n)
As one might expect, such a mixer topology optimization reduces the complexity of a 64 x 64 sized
mixer from 4096 nodal computations down to just 64 computations, which is a dramatic DSP processing
saving feature and allows Pyramix to accommodate very large player/recorder track counts. This will be
further increased in future versions by software releases planned after V4.3 from a current maximum
channel count of 64 to 128.
Disable Punch in / Punch Out
is another DSP processing saving function that, as it name indicates, disables concurrent record stream
management whenever no Punch recordings are required during certain phases of a project's life. This
might save another couple of % of DSP load.
Disable Mixdown
is similar to the above. Disables concurrent Master outputs possible extra paths used for recording as
mixdowns.
