To dock the Toolbar again, drag the Toolbar window back to the top, bottom, right side or left side 
of the main SSL Soundscape Mixer window. Release the mouse button when the outline is shown 
as a solid line. 
 

 
The “P” value reported in the Mixer window’s Status Bar is the average percentage per DSP of the 
available clock cycles which is required to run the SSL Soundscape Mixer at the selected Sample 
Rate (taking the Varispeed setting into account if 
applicable). The “M” value is the average percentage per 
DSP of the available memory resources required to run 
the Mixer. In most cases, if either of these values exceeds 
100% when a Mixer is created, a warning message is 
displayed: 
 
Click OK to close the dialog box. 
 
If the “P” value only exceeds 100% for one of the DSPs, the status bar will display a processing 
overrun (“PO”) warning as shown below: 
 
 
 
If the “M” value exceeds 100% or if both values exceed 100% for one of the DSPs, the Status Bar 
will inform you that the Mixer is inactive (“INACT”): 
 
 
 
Muting or deleting some elements will reduce the values and reactivate the Mixer. 
 
However, the P=xx% value is not completely accurate, because some plug-in elements report 
inaccurate processing cycles to the SSL Soundscape Mixer. This means that depending on what 
kind of elements are used, some mixers configurations can't reach or may exceed the P=100% value 
for one of the DSPs without the “PO” warning appearing. 
 
If a DSP actually cannot perform as required, it will generate a processing overrun error warning 
(PO will be displayed in the Status Bar).

 

 

 
The mixer will also be temporarily muted, although this may not be noticeable if the processing 
overrun only lasts for a very short time. Please also read the Status Bar chapter for information on 
error messages.
