*Looking at my records, I paid $82.56 on Oct 14 2024...

and continues to be worth it. others might be more focused on boutique/hi-gain nuances or just more stuff, but S-Gear is still holding it's own as a 'digital' classic.

Is it heavy on the CPU how Neural DSP?

It’s pretty efficient, much more so than neural I think.

no neural dsp here, imagine it's relatively light.
Studio One 5.? shows a cpu hit of '03' on a track with SGear running. TONEX shows '02'.
Reaper shows FX CPU of 0.21% for SGear and 0.11% for Tonex.
PDC/latency for SGear is 0 on both.

[system is a new build AMD 9900X, no o/c twks (yet)]
