The Universal Audio (UAD) makes mega-powerfull vintage hardware that makes u sh*t in yer pants when U hear and specially when u check the price tag (lol)...
how many can u run, well just like yer PC kinda depends on what plug ins u choose.. stuff like x3 can take almost one of the internal DSPs on a powercore... but I would say for a Powercore firewire rack (the most powerfull) u could use something like 14 eq sat, 2 verbs, 1 delay/ chorus, 2 lA20 comp/lim, ...
The UAD I can't really tell but should b a little less, but mind u these are very high quality so U ain't gonna use 10 fairchild + 20 oxford eq!
The delay exist only on the "outside" plug ins (i.e. powercore/ uad).. no probs in SX though :)
So actually U would probably use almost as many plug ins as u would with yer CPU, but on a powercore, so u can free it for rewiring fruity with sx and still have lots of power 2 use really tasty pluggos like waves and the likes! ;)
