Hello, which one do i get the UAD1 or Powercore? Im out of processiong power, do they significently improve the amount of extra plug ins you can use? I understand that you must you the dedicated ones.....
I probably run 50 plug ins at a time presently and i would like to increase this by at least another 50. ( i hate bouncing down into audio)

I Make cross over electronica stuff with live instrumentation but i also record and mix bands ranging from folk to punk

Any help would be aprreciated

Cheers

If you are looking for pure processing power (i.e. doubling your plug in count) you will need to put that money into an upgrade path for your hardware. Neither of those DSP cards will siginificantly raise your plug in count like you need.

........because the plugins that they run are very high quality/MIPS intensive. Those cards aren't meant to let you run a boatload of mediocre plugins, they're meant to run a handfull of very high quality plugins.

A hundred plugins? You may need to look at a second computer running a VST link program.
 
Both of those cards are pretty good. I have a UAD-1 and the quality of the plugs is streets ahead of what comes with Cakewalk. UAD are making a 'big' announcement on May 20, so I wouldn't buy anything until then
