As an example zita-rev1 takes 2% of a single CPU on my machine. And since reverb is a linear process you don't need a separate one for each note. You would have at most one per instrument in a multitimbral patch. An even a reverb could be bypassed some time after the last note has ended, as can all effects. Checking if there are any notes again doesn't take any significant time. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
