Is there any way to make VSTi's suspended while particular ones are not playing? (Just the way it can be done in Renoise)

thnx in advance

Yes. It's named "Smart disable". Look in help manual.

Well... Thnak you, but... SmartDisable feature has no effect on VSTi... only VSTfx... I tried to apply this macro, but with no luck... All idling instruments still eat up CPU power...

I don't know what Renoise does but in FL you can automate the Mute switch in the Channel window.

Some VSTi's chew the cpu even when they're not doing anything - i'm sure you can't do anything in FL to get round this, and i guess the same happens in other hosts.

If you want freeze stuff, do what i do and have two projects - one with all the vsti's in, and one with all the rendered stuff.

FL6: VSTi auto suspending?
