which takes up more CPU power?
Just wondering which takes up more CPU power in the computer, manualy automating the volume on a snare, or just puting in a gate plug-in? In my opinion, I prefer to adjust the volume on a snare manually, but didn't know if that takes up more memory or CPU than just adding a gate plug-in. Any advice???

Re: which takes up more CPU power?
putting a gate would "in theory" take more processing power cause its a plugin. BUT not much... Digirack plugins are pretty efficient. Automation, as far as I know really doesn't affect processing power at all. Either route isn't gonna bog down even a pretty wimpy processor.

Automation does take up CPU power, thus the reason for the Thinning feature .
It also hits you a little harder with certain control surfaces. |
