Which devices from 5.1 will I not be able to use with 8 DSP?

[Nestor]

I am finally getting Scope 5.1.

I was reading about the new devices, pretty cool indeed, really nice!

Now, I ask myself, which of them I will NOT be able to load with 8 old DSP chips? I will be using two Pulssr I toguether, that is why 8 DSP in total.

well, Z-Matrix doesn't work in v5.1. some very old free devices might not work, but most do.
in 64bit windows, you won't be able to use the Arpeggiators, or the STS Samplers.

with Pulsar1s you probably won't be able to run more than 1 reverb if you are using the new LX verbs.

most everything else will be fine.

[Nestor]

Well, not really bad news for me
What I want to use are the mastering suit plugins, and then the instruments, and hopefully, modular III, at least, some of the synths in there.

STS is not for me, I use Kontakt for all my samples.

Z-Matrix and Arpeggiator is not something I would use. Old plugins, certainly, I hope some of my preferred ones will, but hey, you have new ones that will be much better in every sense.

In S/C page it says: ***LX-effects are 4 high quality effects that need much DSP Power. Therefore not all effects can be loaded on small 3/4 DSP systems. SC Plate reverb, SC Ambience reverb, SC Inverse reverb, SC Chorus Delay. That let’s understand that I will be able to load quite a few already, because even with 4 it seems you can load small ones. Sorry I didn’t see it before asking here.

[garyb]

quite a few reverbs with type1 cards? no.

[Nestor]

Sorry Gary, I didn’t mean loading them at the same time, you had already told me I cannot do that, I mean, I will be able to use many of them, one at a time for different needs and projects.

[garyb]

sure!

Nestor will really like the 5.1 Room.
It can be run as mono stereo and 5.1.
It uses the same DSP as MVerb but sounds warmer.

I would pay a ticket to see Jimmy playing live a whole one hour and a half concert only using the magnificent Scope B3 emulation: jazz, blues and some hotty nerdy stuff that I know will let me with my mouth wide open.

!! I think it's too late !! He bought a german HX3 thing ! And it looks really good !

Jimmy ? Is that it : http://shop.keyboardpartner.de/HX3-Description ?

[Nestor]

I forgot to ask about latency. Would I be able, with two old Pulsar 1 cards and 5.1 Scope software, to reduce a little bit latency? I work at 13ms now, very used to it by the way, not a big deal to me, but less would be better.

[garyb]

no, Pulsar1 cards don't allow it. later cards do.

[Nestor]

Ups, well..., I will keep working at 13ms... thank you Gary for your answer.

Is that not Jimmy on the HX3 webpage?
Its how I imagine his performances to be

i don't think it would be so tame. things might get broken, cops might show up...

it's the bass player that's most dangerous, though.
