That's a great tip.
Should I assign the ASIO modules to DSP 9...?

Awesome, I will try this right now.
I never use many ASIO ins, but they do come in handy when recording, or when I use BCModular shells with ASIO out module.
It seems to pre determine the number of ins on the ASIO input modules in the project window by matching their sizes according to the number in the shell.

Cheers

Nice find Fra77x! I managed to get more SAT connections indeed, using the modular mixer(s) on DSP9 only. Before, I used 2x 12SL modular mixers, each on different dsp's (7&8 or 8&9), but I couldnt load the 16-channel version without having sat errors. The Sidechain (24ch), 247 Stem and MB7 parts are assigned to dsp 10. I noticed I couldnt load all of the sidechain channels though, around 80-90% which is more than Ill ever need. The dsp meter shows 1821 for both 16SL & 8SL for dsp 9, which leaves plenty of headroom for filters and insert fx. When needing even more, I can also assign the 8SL to a seperate dsp (11), without having SAT errors. Time for further experimenting and optimizing my project window, as I really like having one big 16SL mixer. Thanks!

Great!

!!

To be honest i was talking about dsp 10 in the normal software because in the sdk the enumeration starts from 0...

So... cool! Dsp 9 (8 in the sdk) also offers some more communication... I will check it..

According to this, 7-10 all have more comm links.

XITE Structure:

DSP 1 and 2 are for the IO communication, ASIO and Wave are placed here.
Hardware IOs are always on DSP 1.
DSPs 3, 4, 5, 6 are for the communication with the 4 Slots.
Each Slot contains 3 new Sharc DSPs with the power of 6 old sharcs each.
Also every new Sharc DSP has 32 MB RAM.
DSPs 1,2,3,4,5,6 are old Sharcs.

The most important DSPs are 7,8,9,10. They have most communication
channels to the IO DSPs.


The STM 1632 is placed on DSP 18 in the Default-Project.
It should be better DSP 7, 8, 9 or 10.
Same for Micromixer and Dynamic Mixer, the bigger mixers,
have their own placement, which can not be changed.

At the moment the user can not place devices to one slot,
internally it is possible.

The 4 Slots:

Slot 1: 7, 15, 11
Slot 2: 8, 12, 16
Slot 3: 9, 17, 13
Slot 4: 10, 14, 18

The DSP display should have a special view to make this visable.



DSP Placement:

It´s always good to place a device on one new DSP.
If you need e.g. mor voices for Minimax, it´s better
to place it on it´s own Slot and than increase the number of voices.

In //ScopeXITE/Projects/Examplesis the Project synths.pro,
where every synth has it´s own new DSP. In most cases the
distribution you have chosen, we be loaded next time within the Project,
but not always.

Better use only the new DSPs for placement 7 ... 18 and if possible
7, 8, 9, 10. Only for VDAT you need to use the DSP 2.

If you help XITE to spread DSP power equally and mostly seperated
to single DSPs if possible, you will get bet results.



Tip for sampler use:

You need to start Scope in admin mode on Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Also it is better to deactivate Startup.pro in Scope settings or better
delete the entry in registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run

"Scope.exe" or "ScopeXITE.exe".

You can load at least 3 Sampler, but "only" with 32 voices and you
need to place each of them on DSP 7, 8, 9 or 10. Each on a single DSP.

If on Project reload the Sampler has no sound, than type in for the voices "0"
and again the number of voice the sampler had before.

Ralf
