bus to bus & hyperthreading already in vegas 4?

Oh dear,
well, I was messing with the ill fated demo I tried to sell my office on buying into and discovered there is a bis to bus feature to be enabled as well as multi/hyper threading in the internals tab that can be activated and does "seem" to function,

Okay question - why is this a "quiet feature". Not to belittle 5 but I thought the bus to bus and hyperthreading were new things. Or do I just not understand what i found in 4? It was enough to get everyone back to the table to consider going to vegas in lieu of the next premiere which will be yet another painful sidegrade.

anyone chime in?

this was mentioned before quite a while back. It works, but be sure to save often, some crazy stuff can happen

Did you get bus to bus routing to work? When I tried this in V4 by setting the value to "True", it doesn't seem to work for me. There's a lot of stuff under that "internal" tab that doesn't work and if it does, it means it's unsupported and isn't complete, so you could run into a lot of problems. If you look a little further you'll even see there are fields for Hardware controler support. Don't plan on getting H/W controlers to work in V4 though.

Me either, there are no options on the bus to route anywhere.

Weirdly, bus to bus does seem to work (i'll go with pipeline and admit I know not how stable it is under use) in the last 4 version demo for audio as far as I did try it.

haven't tried to connect any hardware to it at all
the threading thing was the most interesting part because with it set true
the performance of it jumped (literally) when several track fx were overlayed

the good news, they are considering 5 again. The better news. Maybe this will give some people stuck at 4 some good news until they make their own jump

bus to bus routing in Vegas four under the internal secret setting... only works for FX busses, not your regular ones.

It's not much worth getting excited about...

Unfortunately we're upgrading everything else so I haven't had a chance to get into Vegas five yet... soon, oh so soon!

Mess with internal settings at your own risk!! I'd hate to see someone lose an important project messing with those.
