I have some sounds I'm tweaking for the Pacarana that use mixes of multiple instances of multichannel panners and replicated euverb monos - I use 'Forced Processor Assignment' to keep from running out of realtime.

Things are getting weird when I move away from processor 4 - I loose my surround output capabilities on any other processor! I only hear what would be coming out of channels 1 and 2... I get it all back as soon as I return to chip 4 or run the sound without the processor assignment.

What do I need to be mindful of regarding I/O and this feature? There must be another way to organize my sound and get things working... Right now, I have modules that fit on 1 chip that I'd like to replicate 2 to 4 times. If I simply mix them together with a multichannel mixer, the system runs out of realtime. With the FPA modules (easier as an acronym), I get no such messages, but only the module on processor 4 delivers true surround output

btw: I am able to deliver multichannel input - each module is receiving a different stereo pair successfully

Hi Lowell, Could you please email us an example so we could try adjusting it? It is a good idea to avoid ForcedProcessor assignments except as a last resort (constraining a Sound to a processor makes it hard to schedule the other Sounds around them).
