It is a good concept, but haven't fallen in love with the interface yet. I've got the Snap Heap thing also, but have only attempted minimal use with it.
I've had to do it hundreds of times over the years but realistically mixing shoud be done in the context of the mix, not an individual track and freezing one track to move on to the next effectivly makes it an individual track type of adjustment not in the context of the whole. I haven't been able to truly figure out the freeze method in a way that works well with my workflow. Yep or just the the Plugin Alliance Amek 9099. The load increase is all relative to my machine which is a humble 3-year old i5.Įasy fix for those with older machines that want to run the latest software plugins: use the effects on one track at a time, then freeze. This MixBox preset used on one track added about 15% to the real-time CPU demand of the test project (total 20% RT CPU), while the Snap Heap preset shown here was only adding about 3% (Total 8% RT CPU).
Used the Reaper Performance Meter to gauge the RT CPU increase when each plugin was online. Baseline was that Reaper with one EZD3 track took about 5% RT CPU (4% for Reaper and 1% for EZD3). Here are two FX screen shots showing a Mixbox chain and a Snap Heap chain being used on a simple Reaper project with a single EZD3 (EZdrummer 3) drum track.
Their GUIs are minimalist and seem to run well with lower resource demand. That is a modular Snapin Host which allows you to build up to seven serial or parallel effects chains. They will work individually as standard plugins, or you can use them in one of Kilohearts plugin hosts such as Snap Heap ($29). For a lighter experience, recommend the 30 free Kilohearts Essentials Snapin plugins. I'll give credit to Kilohearts for striking a decent balance. Not for older machines + high track counts, in my experience.Įasy fix for those with older machines that want to run the latest software plugins: use the effects on one track at a time, then freeze or bounce.
