Re: remove ‘surround mixer’ plugin from TDM rig to gain more power?
You'll definitely gain back a couple a' chips going down to the stereo mixer (you won't need PFL/AFL while mixing anyhow). The other thing you may want to consider is doing a bit of voice sharing... Yeah, it's a pain in the ass, and can only be done on tracks with TDM plugins, but if you have a pile of BG vocal or percussion tracks that only happen here and there (and don't overlap), and you're not using any RTAS on them (or can get away with TDM) then you can probably free up a whole pile of voices....
I have mixes that max out my HD6 with voice sharing, etc., that wouldn't open on an HDX1...
Just a thought...
