Default Waves SSL 4000 TDM
Can anyone tell me how much DSP it uses on a chip? I have the native bundle and I was wondering if I should even bother if it uses an excessive amount of DSP on the Accel cards.

Any info would be appreciated.

But you have a Mac Pro - why would you want to run TDM versions at all?

Low latency? Fixed-point math?

Yeah basically for the latency, if I have a snare top and bottom that are 2 separate tracks, i run them both into a mono aux to process them the same way. RTAS on auxes is just ugly as far as latency and voice usage.

Thanks badboy for the info, I owe ya one.
