Hi there

I originally downloaded the kX drivers for my SBLive! 5.1 soundcard because I had real problems with the Creative ones but I now find myself being drawn to experimenting with DSP. I would like to add the graphic equalizer plugin (10 Band EQ) to the DSP but when I try to I get the message "No more free GPR registers" - why is this?

The status box on DSP reads "GPRs: 204/256"

i fear your sblive! has no more capacity to load it. gpr - general purpose register. the card has a limit of 256 of such gpr's, which is shown in the titlebar. you have to delete some plugins from the dsp and try again.

OK, thanks I'll give that a try - guess the 10 Band EQ plugin must use a fair few GPRs

try ufx eq p5
thats a much more powerful parametric eq and it eats less resources
(49 GPRs)

Someone said that an option would be to replace the 8-channel mixer with a 2-channel mixer. (Only if you don't need more thant two channels)
Well...is there a 2-channel mixer?
