DSP Allocation

For non MassCore systems there is a degree of user control over DSP allocation in the VS3 control panel applica-

tion (Start > All Programs > Pyramix > VS3 Control Panel. To help make sensible choices this is what the DSP

processing blocks do:

All output buses

All VS3 plug-ins inserted on output buses,

All active Output connections.

Note: All Fx Out calculations are inherently summing tasks so they need to be processed

in the same card - so only one card can be used for this.

All internal calculations that are carried out in the background, allowing INs to be forwarded to OUT buses. It can

be seen as internal matrix.

In the Pyramix user interface, this is only reflected by the numbers of Ins routed to OUTs, no plug-ins, input strips

or output buses are calculated here.

Mixer can be calculated in a single DSP or can share DSP with Fx In or with Fx Out.

All input strips

All VS3 plug-ins inserted on Input strips

All active Input connections

Fx-INs can be spread across multiple DSP cards (since no summing is required at this stage).
