scope DSP/overload error since v5.0

since i have installed v5.0 and have began to use the new FX (eq, reverbs, comp) i have a lot of errors in large projects (with high DSP load).
i have
scope
luna
pulsar 1 (old version, 13 ms latency)
with a total of 21 dsp
the errors goes from dsp overload, not enough DSP memory, PCI overflow...
and appears when i have loaded e.g. 2x dynatube, ambience, another reverb, some comp and the new channel strip.

- scope error.jpg (29.13 KiB) Viewed 1325 times
sometimes the SFP optimization works, sometimes not, and i'm forced for exampe to unload a reverb, get the dynatube audio take, unload dynatube and reload the reverb again.... very annoying!
do you know some trick to overcome this problem??
with SFP 4.5 i never had this problem so often!
i have an asus p4c800-e deluxe MoBo

Controlla l'ordine delle schede.La scheda con piu DSP deve essere sempre la prima.
Puoi vederlo anche dal menu del samplerate,guarda se SCOPE è la prima in alto,se
non è così devi modificare il file cset.ini per cambiare l'ordine delle schede.

[i switch in english!

he is speaking about card order]
scope board is the first, i set up things in CSET.INI
then, for some reason, i cannot force pulsar 1 to the be the second board... luna is board 2 and pulsar number 3.

The best thing to do it's throw up off the window the Pulsar 1 , you got nothing but troubles on a multiboard setup with cards from 2nd and first generation.
Anyway try do add "numboards=3" (or 2 i don't remember) in the .cset.ini if i remember right that string was used when you have 1st and 2nd generation boards togheter.

the big problem is that all my software (dynatube, mixer pack, minimax, b2003, optimaster, psyq...) is registered to pulsar1, i cannot live without it!!
and i need three boards for both midi and audio IN/OUT.
in the future, if i have money, i plan to throw off luna and buy another scope... then maybe i will migrate the keys from pulsar1 to scope and, if more money will be found, maybe i'll buy a pulsar 2.
the "numboards=3" strings was unknown to me, i don't think i have it in my cset.ini .
thanks again!

Yep!
You should think about having only gen II boards together and throw 1rst gen. Melting both is just too painful and only drive you to losing more time and project parts!
