The point is that it is code. Remember sony's plugins ? When they were ported to native format, it actually used less CPU than the powercore versions. They can do it and it would probably take less CPU than most modern VI. Somebody should just break in and steal the blueprints. I bet clavia leaves their doors unlocked.

Good luck trying to run without the DSP hardware, you won't get it working because it's not a Native plugin.

The DSP chips are a red herring. My phone is probably more powerful than the DSP chips in a Virus or the identical Powercore chips. The Virus as a VST plugin would use no more CPU power as any other basic VA.

I've had both a Powercore and a UAD card and there's just no reason for DSP anymore, there's just no benefit to be had.

a GT 560 , <300$ is about 52 625 times more powerful than a UAD 2 solo.
ANyone that talks about UAD and dsp power should be given a swirley.

The problem with technology is that the money and brains go where there is more money to be made. The audio industry has the dumbest people on the planet designing your stuff. In relation to the other industries say visual. But so is life. There are maybe 5 guys that are exceptions. I mean the fact they can't make 64 bit plugins is funny.

Coding audio believe or not is a matter of using an algorithm that has been already made decades ago, tweaking that algorithm so it sounds a bit different then making a GUI. Any MIT master student in amy field related to programming and dsp could do that for you in about 1 week. 1 guy. Why it is taking them so long is just funny. On a scale form 1 to 10 on say how hard or difficult say waves plugin compared to say a 3d rendering engine is say 0.5 on 10. That is why you have 1 man teams making the best plugins. It really is that simple. SOme of the math especially for EQs dates from like the turn of the 19th century. A bessel curve is like from 1890

They need to outsource anything relating to computers to india. Let the smart people do it. But what about the MIT grad ? indian.
