I figured I'd try to process real time FX through the Big Mixer (EQ, compression, Reverb) rather than inside Vegas, to free up the processor for playing Audio, and tax the DSP engines on the card, because I thought that would give me extra processing power.
However, monitoring my CPU usage with and without the pulsar project, there's a signifigant difference, even when i'm not maxing out the DSP meter in pulsar 3.1
Is this normal???
