Solid State Logic 82S6MC060A manual DSP Resource Management

4.3 DSP Resource Management

Due to the Duende having 4 DSP chips, a minimal amount of resource management should be done when running Duende at high load.

If there are, for example 2 slots free and you wish to load a stereo plug- in, Duende will u nder certain conditions notify you that you are out of DSP resources. This will only happen if the two slots are on different DSP chips as Duende is not able to load a st ereo plug -in across 2 chips. This may we ll occur because y ou have fi lled up all the resourc es and subsequently unloaded 2 mono plug-ins. This situation can be seen in the diagram below.

As you can s ee ab ove, the two rem aining slot s reside on different DSP chips and in this case when you attempt to load a s tereo plug-in you will encount er the above menti oned situation.

The way to handle this is as follows:

1. Save your project/song

2. Close your project/song

3. Re-open project/song

When this has been done Duende will be forced to reload all the plug-ins but will do s o in the m ost e conomical w ay possible. The 2 free s lots will now reside on the s ame DSP chip allowing the loading of a stereo plug-in.
