Acronym of Digital Signal Processing, a very general term for processing
|
||||
of any digital signal by digital means. In &ARDOUR_NAME;'s context, it generally
|
||||
refers to the processing peformed on audio signals by &ARDOUR_NAME; and by plugins.
|
||||
It is often talked of in terms of DSP `load', referring to the amount of CPU power
|
||||
that Ardour is using for its signal processing. This load increases with the
|
||||
number of tracks and plugins that a session uses. A computer will have an upper
|
||||
limit to the amount of DSP it can perform, depending on its CPU and RAM speed and
|
||||
many other factors.

Although Ardour supports sends, there is no way to control them
|

directly from the mixer interface - you don't get a dedicated knob on

the mixer strip. However, if you bring up the send's own editor (for
|

example, by double-clicking on its name in the redirect list), you
|

will find a richer set of functionality than most other DAWs offer for
|
||||
controlling the behaviour of a send.
