Stupid question that I must ask

[IndyPhil26]

Sorry if I missed this or it should be obvious. But on the 2 we had 1 CPU dedicated to amp/cab and the other cpu was for effects if I understood that correctly. If we used the unit just for effects with a real amp we didnt use 1 cpu. This unit is 1 CPU correct. So all power should be there for effects if we dont use any amp blocks in a 4 cable method. I assume this is correct.

Two 1.0 GHz, floating-point “Keystone” Digital Signal Processors (DSPs) comprise the main audio engine.

Well now I feel really stupid. Please delete this thread.

Not stupid, i dont know if we ever had any info on whether 1cpu was dedicated to amp modelling on the new unit?

Understanding how the gear works is always cool ... curious myself as to how the work-load is distributed.

I believe it's 4 total microprocessors. Two for audio processing, one for the display, and one more for the USB interface.

"The stunning color display is controlled by a dedicated graphics processor while USB traffic and user interface tasks are handled by a 500 MHz, 16-core microcontroller providing smooth operation and robust USB performance."

Understanding how gear works is not just cool, it’s essential to understanding how to get the most out of your investment and make the best sounding noise that you can.
