S3L Plugin count
Hi,
How many plugin slots are in the current S3L software? I'm curious about my current setup, and if it will work in the S3L. |

Re: S3L Plugin count
Yes 40 Slots, but not this much DSP to fill all of them to be true!

Re: S3L Plugin count
That's what I'm afraid of. How does the DSP stack up against a 3 mix engine system? And how do the AAX plug ins stack up against the TDM stuff, when it comes to DSP usage?

Re: S3L Plugin count
This is an question i cannot answer since i have only an S3L-X.
I find myself ok with the DSP available but if u have a really big Show and need a lot of PlugIns then u are limited for shure. But u have to keep the size of the Package in mind - small size means also some limitation. What i have heard/read there are more DSPs on board then active - if that is true and why i dont know? |

Re: S3L Plugin count
I also see that waves doesn't play with The S3L system. Is there any idea when that will change?

That gives us what? 6 hidden chips if I'm not mistaken. So in theory there should be loads of DSP available right in there, ready to go, but Avid has hard time letting go of the old habit of limiting it's own products capabilities Or then again they might keep the chips hidden so when sampling rate goes up and more DSP is needed for the same amount of work we would not "loose" DSP. Or then again if all the DSP were available, today, in the S3L then maybe Profile would look bad.. I don't know. All I know is I need ALL these 18 chips for a super nice mix. I like D-verbs, but I would love to run ReVibes instead, but with the current DSP counts it's simply not possible by 50% per chip DSP counts of ReVibe and Sonnox reverb takes even 80%, as my friend has just told me, haven't tested that one myself since my Sonnox license is Accel only. Avid, there is no point holding back the S3L-horses! |

Re: S3L Plugin count
Digigrid are just the Interfaces - Waves will not make AAX-DSP Versions of their PlugIns as they said a little while ago.
So if there will once be an Digigrid AVB Interface - u still need an Soundgrid Server and an Control-Computer to run Waves PlugIns. There will not be an Full Integration in the near future. At least they told so. Last edited by Davoetta; 03-11-2015 at 11:04 AM. |

Avid DSP or No DSP, that's what I've been thinking...

Re: S3L Plugin count
Honestly, that's what it looks like to me. S6L is now on Venue 5.3 software. The S3L haven't gotten any updates for more than a year. It's a shame, the S3L is great for us who do fly jobs. I'd love to see an option of running at 96k for working with it's big brother, or stay at 48k and have those last chips for plugs. It won't happen though. Avid care about new sales. Not existing users.
