Good Point. I've actually had pretty good luck, and I haven't had any
crashes yet (my fx chains are probably pretty crude compared to
yours). I've certainly had problems getting plug-ins to talk to each
other, particularly getting everything to sync with my VST host.

One of my main goals with the increased processing power is to get
latency down as far as it can go. And (as you can probably tell) I
just like messing around with this stuff : )
