Well, it is, in that you still have 11 cores left to do other things with! Most people only have four cores, in general it's better for a single synth to use one core as efficiently as possible leaving the others free for things like the DAW and OS. It's possible we'll allow multiple threads in Fusor at some point, but surely not within a single synth.Make shure a new Dcam Synth Squad support multy core because it was a very weak point and even if u have 12 core monster CPU it is no better then laptop CPU!
There's a bleed control on the filter, so you can let some bass through an HPF (or some treble through an LPF), but there's no way to split out the sub and treat it separately.Since there's a way for the sub oscillator to bypass unison stacking, I think it would be cool for the sub to be able to bypass the filter. So many times I need a sine or triangle wave unfiltered, while the main body of the bass goes through a HPF or BPF. Anyway, I'm really excited about this
You'd be surprised! At 8x, 48KHz, 32voices some of the Strobe2 patches use about 30% of one core on my (3+ years old) Sandybridge i5-2500 desktop.And if i set oversimpling for 8x for 48Khz it will be very dificult to run that on a singel core even on modern top of the line CPUs.
What they also go more toward is bigger vector (SSE, AVX, AVX3) units on each core. The AVX3 vector unit on this years' Skylake machines is insane. 512-bit (16-wide at single precision) vector unit with 32-entry register file, mask registers & fused multiply-add. In laymans' terms that means SS2 gets almost double performance on Skylake vs Broadwell - 32 voices @ 8x48Khz should be well under 20% of one 3GHz core on those systems.And obviously new CPUs goes more toward not bigger clocks but more cores.
