Dim Pro: separaste AUdio FX for each element?

yeah sure you can, the fx dropdown list applies to each element like the eq does

Scott is correct.  If you are trying add effects to the output of Dim Pro, they will apply to the entire aggregate of however many elements you have used for that Dim Pro instance.  There is likely a means of adding some Dim-Pro internal effects to each element, but I do not know what effects it may come with, and I never use multiple elements within any instance of Dim Pro.

So, my approach to this is that I always just insert a new instance of Dim Pro for any additional Dim Pro sounds I want to have for my project.  I sometimes have up to 9 or 10 instances of Dim Pro, depending on the project.  I have oodles of memory so it is just not an issue for me to have multiple Dim Pro instances.  This approach is easier for my brain, and also it opens up the full compliment of effects that I have in Sonar, instead of only being to use whatever internal effects may come with Dim Pro, as would be the case if trying to apply effects to any of the individual elements.

Thanks for the replies guys. It's as I feared. I have been playing around trying to do things like assign an Audio track to each Dim pro element,. but it, as you have just confirmed, does not work. Using a new DP for each new track. Is that not a resource hog? How does it compare to ...SFZ...or other sample player/processors. I realise that DP is king above most of the alternatives, but resource use still worries me.

I have had a dozen or more instances of Dimension Pro in a project and never ran into any issues with resources (for the record, on my old DAW, 6GB RAM etc not the one in my signature)
 
As a sampler / sampler player these days I mostly use Kontakt, which can have up to 32 outs (16 stereo outs). It's not fair however to compair Dim Pro to the much more expensive Kontakt.

There should be only one copy of the DimPro progam in memory, it's only its
data structures that'll be repeated for each instance and that can't be that much.

@Paul P "There should be only one copy of the DimPro progam in memory, it's only its data structures that'll be repeated for each instance and that can't be that much. " AH...thanks. Clever. I have been doing a bit of reading and had just started reading about that very subject.
