This allows you to easily incorporate outboard gear into your DP effects chains. Hardware Insert plug-in — DP’s new Hardware Insert plug-in functions just like other DP effects plug-ins, but loops the channel’s audio signal to a piece of outboard hardware, with latency compensation, for external processing. Small buffer optimization — DP's MOTU Audio System (MAS) engine processing has been optimized to better support operation at smaller buffer sizes (for both Mac and Windows), for even lower latency performance overall.

The CPU load of the sample rate conversion used in the Windows Audio driver has also been substantially reduced. This improves audio I/O latency and virtual instrument performance.

In a round-trip latency (RTL) test using a MOTU 1248 Thunderbolt audio interface, DP achieves roundtrip latency of 1.6 ms with a 32 sample buffer at 96 kHz.Įnhanced Windows drivers — The latency of the WASAPI (Windows Audio) driver has been significantly reduced. Reduced latency on OS X — DP’s host buffer latency has been cut in half, resulting in industry-leading overall latency performance.

Next-gen Pre-gen™ engine — DP's Next-generation Pre-gen engine transparently pre-renders audio output from virtual instruments and plug-ins to dramatically reduce their CPU load, allowing you to run many times the number of plug-ins and virtual instruments than in previous versions.
