This page contains tables for each category of plugins showing the CPU usage as displayed on the Web interface of each MOD device.
This will obviously not be very accurate but the intention is to have an estimation and especially be able to compare plugins so it's important that users who contribute to this page use the same method of measurement.
First of all, we should disable optional processing on the device settings (noise gate, compressor and ground loop compensation). Next, put the plugin alone on the Constructor. Connect one device input to the plugin input(s) and the plugin output(s) to the two device outputs. Note the CPU usage displayed on the Web interface when the plugin is On and Off.
Only put numerical values in the cells displaying CPU usage as we want to be able to sort them. An integer is enough for the precision we need.
