Hello!  Can we get rid of these new spams as a group or do we all have to
adjust "marketing preferences" in our yahoo accounts?  What a hassle.

This is a spammer that got through the Yahoogroups filters. I've 
filtered it out for the LUG, but since this is an unmoderated list, I 
couldn't filter it out. The person is now banned though.

As for the marketing preferences. I'm currently gathering some 
information and I'm putting it online. I'll send an email to all lists 
with tips how to switch everything off etc.

Bye,
Joeri

EXS The power of polyphony

2002-04-03 by Phil Buckle

Since I got Logic 5.0.1 the other day I've been experimenting with the
EXS(TDM).
Could anyone throw some light on the following observations.
I have used up to 16 EXS24 at one time, playing groove control drum loops
and percussion plus bass. etc. There are 8 or 10 playing at the one time but
there are all 16 cranking away all over the place. This results in very
little movement of the Audio meter of the system performance display.
Everything works well.
However.......I ground my system to a halt by simply playing 4 EXS24's and 4
midi tracks!!  I loaded 2 pianos and 2 string patches. This resulted in a
"DTDM unable to communicate" error and the Audio meter peaking at 90 to 100%
But obviously the system performance has nothing to do with the size of the
samples in memory but with how many notes are playing simultaneously.
So I guess that system performance of the EXS is determined by polyphony .
I noticed that the 4 tracks that were playing had maybe 4 note chords
playing simultaneously.
In fact I noticed that the load of 1 EXS with a piano loaded is about the
same as instantiating an EVP88  and playing the same part.
Why is the EXS so power hungry when using a lot of polyphony?
PS The new VSM extension made no difference at all to the test.  I tried it
both on and off.

EXS CPU consumption will go up if the sample played is being transposed up,
as well (any from it's root key).

Is that the case with you?

Well, SampleCell TDM uses its DSP, EXS runs on the host CPU (plus uses DSP
for DirectConnect if used in a TDM environment).

The piano was from the Emagic 5.0.1 disc and the strings were from the
Miroslav Vitous collection. I've been using the latter for years in Sample
Cell with zero drain on the CPU.

I know. I was just having a frustrated little dig at one of the few down
sides of Native processing.
Don't worry I've fallen in love with the EXS.

DNA Studios <dnanet@...> has pointed out the following...

Sounds like a good tip.

Maybe it´s just time for considering to buy a new comp ;) I just
produced a playback with 23 EXS instances plus Waves Rverb, Timeworks
EQ´s a and a lot of big orchestra sample loaded in. 
My platform is an Athlon Tbird 1400MHz, 512MB DDR


Greetings,

Muhammed

Actually switching the EXS to 32bit made all the difference.
I can have 24 EXS plus EVP88 plus Dynamo!!
Because I run Mix x 2 and a D24 card I can have as many plugs as I want
without touching the CPU.
Not bad for a 4 year old machine. (ok the G3 card is only a year old)
