Nuendo VST System Link?

[Thrasher666]

Has anyone tried to use the VST System Link in Nuendo 3?

I was looking into using this to run more plug-in's on different machines (PC's). I own 3. Was reading that it can be done with a farm of systems PC or MAC combined. Has anyone used this feature? What's the PRO's and CON's on this?

Just wanted to ask before I tried it.

I haven`t tried it myself, but some guys over at the Cubase forum use this solution to network several computers.

Give us some feedback on how this stuff works out for you, I`m curious about this as well.

Yes I would like to hear how it works out/how difficult it is to set up.

Update!

Well, I couldn't get the VST System Link in Nuendo to work. So I decided to give FX Teleport a try (free trial download). I have got to say that so far it's amazing works great!!! I can't believe it, no more CPU Clips.

I have 2 systems running awesome:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
System 1
Laptop - 3.4GHZ -2GB Ram - WinXP - Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS PCMCIA
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
System 2
Desktop - 1.8GHZ - 2GB Ram - Win2000 - SoundBlaster Live
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

On System 1, I am running Nuendo3 with my project.
On System 2, I'm running most of my Plugin's and Virtual Instruments (GuitarRig2, Korg Wavestation, URS, PSP VintageWarmer plug's, and a few others).

It's very cool. I'm still messing around with it and have not tried it with all my plug's or my main system yet. I'll keep you posted.

How is the latency?

Testing it on pro tools:
I can't make it work, I used a wrapper to convert their wrapped "LAN" effects to make it work as rtas, vst2rtas crashes!
Fuck that.
On Cubase it works.

I mean I'm wrapping their wrapped stuff ahahah

Latency is at 12ms. Still messing with it. So far it's good.
