Multicore on Plugins

[anttimaatteri]

which u-he plugins have a multicore switch and which one not? i saw it on my bazille.
how is the multicore support of the u-he plugins working, like it is just a fixed number or like as much as possible alongside how many voices being used? or is it bound to the oscillators or else?
and is multicore support part of the vst-standards? i am just curious cause evrywhre i read that singlecore power in cpu is the what matters, but i recently had to build a new pc and its a ryzen system and i just saw how much of the cpu usage was used with the multicore switch off and how much it went down with the function on.

Out of the top of my head:

ACE, Bazille, Diva: Multicore distributes all voices into their own threads. Scheduling is left to the operating system. The more cores, the better (particularly true for Diva after yesterday's update).

Repro-5: You can set a number of threads in the preferences and they process as many voices as they find. This might work a tad better on systems with fewer cores than the above method.

If my cpu has 4 cores but 8 threads. Should i set in repro settings 4 or 8? I know this might sound silly but i dont understand thread vs core thing well enough and as ex expierience with Diva and multicore has been mixed. Sometimes turning on multicore reduces performance sometimes increase.

8

setting it to 4 will just limit it to two cores instead of 4.
