呵呵，有这么多人为我加油，蛮感动的。我会继续的。跟过我贴的人会先拿到我的译稿。我觉得这个东东的长处在于其模块式设计带来的强大扩展力。刚我又去DXI类乐器的始作俑者 -- Cakewalk的网站逛了一趟，找到一篇关于DXI乐器优点的文章。
The DXi Advantage
The DXi (DX Instruments) standard offers the following powerful benefits:
A software synth plug-in standard designed and optimized specifically for responsive, low-latency playback on the Windows platform.
Quickly patch DXi-compatible soft synths on tracks and use them within DXi host applications.
Route MIDI tracks to DXi soft synths or run synths as stand-alone tone generators.
Control and play synths in real-time using their internal interface or external MIDI devices like keyboards, guitar synths, or wind controllers.
Patch audio effects to synth outputs.
Route DXi synth output through auxiliary sends.
Record DXi synth output to audio tracks.
Save DXi synth settings within SONAR projects.
Provides reliable, responsive, Windows thread-safe soft synth processing in multi-threaded applications like SONAR and Fruity Loops 3.0.
More accurate automation. DXi soft synth automation can be graphically and intuitively edited using smooth line-segments and curves as envelope data. Through this, DXi offers automation with up to 100-nanosecond accuracy. Other formats rely on SYSEX, which is cumbersome and difficult to edit.
DXi synths can provide names for banks, notes, controllers, NRPNs and RPNs. This allows user-friendly MIDI- based control of the DXi soft synth or transformer.
No limit on the number of simultaneous soft synths or automatable parameters.
DXi-based transformers can be used as MIDI-controlled audio processors, such as vocoders, intelligent pitch shifters, or tempo-based delays.
DXi synths can have access to the tempo, key, and meter-maps of their host applications. This allows a synth to more efficiently handle transitions for tempo-based or key-based processing.
DXi allows for offline processing within the host application.
DXi synths are multiprocessor ready.
