fastest spu plugin

May 1st, 2002

OK I am stuck with AMD K6 500 MHZ processer and sound stutters as I dont get enough fps so which is the fastest plugin I could use to improve my performance???:confused:

G-Pitts · May 1st, 2002

Pete Dsound audio driver is pretty fast, the internal epsxe spu plugin is also very fast, or maybe you could try eternal spu plugin lite.

Neojag · May 1st, 2002

well, playing with no sound would improve the performance

What SPU are u using right now?

**Kane** · May 1st, 2002

If you are using Eternal's SPU (or any SPU other than the internal one), you will get stutter if, in the Sound options, you leave "Enable SPU IRQ hack" on.

right now i am using petes plugin

Null's spu is fastest but its not very compatible.
Pete's dsound and internal ones are fast too.

HERNAN · May 1st, 2002

i think that the eternal spu is the faster, but you can try pete's dsound.

**Snake785** · May 2nd, 2002

If you use Eternal, you can raise the Buffer Level, but that meas that the sound may be delayed. Hope that helps.

Null's plugin suffered during the BIOS booting sequence, and that's very bad by my standards..

petes MIDAS spu is fast

**liquid** · May 2nd, 2002

NO!NO!NO! The original no sound SPU plugin is the fastest!
ha! try and top that!

ya just have to use a little imagination that's all

**Shadow Lady** · May 2nd, 2002

the fastest is segu's spu (or something like that I cant remember tghe name) but is the worst on compatibility, if u want speed and compatibility use Eternal SPU 1.20 Lite version it is fast and had great compatibility, and if want a little more speed use Petes midas spu but have less compatibility

well all this is just my observations when testing ^^

sithspawn · May 3rd, 2002

what about the older Andy's or Iori's (lite ver)? They're pretty fast and have good compatibility too (IMHO).

It will cause strang sound with some games (WWF Smackdown2), but it also the fastest spu plugin (even faster than pete dsound).

evil aloha · May 3rd, 2002

Yeah.... but if you have a better PC, you can use Eternal, Pete's MIDAS or D.Sound... The sound compatibility changes if you change the video plugin too....

**Shadow Lady** · May 3rd, 2002

Pete's midas is not that for compatibility ;P<span style="height: 11; Filter: Glow(Color=black)>

Pete midas is an old SPU plugin, it not very compatible with new version of psx emulator SPU interface and will cause problem with many games.
