An HD card has 900 MIPS.A MIX farm has 3 DSPs with external SRAM (128 K words each), 2 DSP with external DRAM (667 K words), and 1 DSP with no external RAM. The HD card has 9 DSPs each with 256 K words of SRAM.So, you can run more plug-ins at 44.1\/48 KHz on an HD card as opposed to a MIX card.On HD2 systems (or higher), you can use 128 audio tracks at 44.1\/48 KHz. MIX systems (no matter how many cards) are limited Other benefits to HD systems: longer cables between the computer and the I\/O peripherals (up to 100 feet), more I\/O channels per card (32 for HD, 16 for MIX), more flexible I\/O options\/routing, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[],"manufacturers":[33300],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the What are the differences between the Mix core card and the HD core card? page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/what-differences-between-mix-core-card-hd-core-card\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"What are the differences between the Mix core card and the HD core card? - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"There are several differences between MIX systems and HD systems, even at 44.1\/48 KHz, and even with a &#8220;small&#8221; system (one PCI card)&#8230;A MIX card has 480 MIPS.
