LOGIC pl & audiosuite

hi there does AUDIOSUITE plug ins feature works only on a LOGIC&TDM config ? or it can work on a 001 config (direct i/o) if it can how ? thanx sandman

-When using Logic Audio in DAE mode with TDM hardware, yes, you are able to access both AudioSuite and TDM plug-ins. -When using Logic Audio in Direct I/O mode with TDM or LE hardware, you do not have access to AudioSuite, RTAS or TDM plug-ins (Emagic plug-ins only). Brent

thanx brent , but whats the difference > ? or why ? both (tdm&001) are digidesign hardware that use audiosuite !! AND audiosuite does'nt use DSP . . .

-Although AudioSuite is a file based process, it still uses DAE. -When DAE is not active, AudioSuite, TDM and RTAS plug-ins are not available. Brent
