Cuda support for plugins
Would it be a good idea to implement Nvidia Cuda into the effects plugins. This way you can for example add tweny tracks with individual Toraverbs and/or redaptor, fazortan and devestator plugins and offload the resources the the GPU.

And for those that don't use Nvidia chips???? maybe what you mean is to use the OpenCL standard?usrfobiwan wrote:Would it be a good idea to implement Nvidia Cuda into the effects plugins.

Hi,
I don't think at this moment is doable, because plug-ins have mainly single threaded structure and CUDA technology and GPUs in general base on multi-cores (multi threaded algorithms). The latest NVidia line contains (if my memory serves) two GPUs with over 200 cores each.
Best regards,
Sebastian
