What Determines Plug-in Napping?

Hi All,

I've started working on some larger projects and have been using the plug-in nap feature which helps my struggling Mac Mini cope with the heavy CPU loads.

For the last project I used UA's 610 preamp which I rendered. This plug-in (along with others like H-Delay and many others) generates considerable noise. I was thinking that this noise might affect how plug-in nap works, that is, that S1 might think the noise is audio (which of course it is!) and process it, stopping the nap function from working.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows how the "nap" state is determined? Is it set by the presence of audio? Is there a gate threshold of some sort? Or does it depend on whether there's an Event under the playback cursor? I checked the manual and couldn't find anything about this.

Cheers!
