There's a DP upgrade and more RAM in that there $500, Shoosh.
Shouldn't be long now, methinks.
I've renewed optimism for DP, the hype of L8's arrival is already wearing off, and I smell an update on the way.
Hopesville, here I come!
[Monkey resumes prayers that he be let off reamping by a DP simulation plug and buying Altiverb, Vintage Warmer, a denoiser, MSI, Ethno and possibly even MachFive.]
MachOne, anyone?
Future DP updates could increment this to MachTwo, Three and so on...

I've always thought (wrongly or rightly) that the buss architecture and the internal way that DP processes wave (SD11) files is 'maybe' more complex and hence the difference in sound.
I'm not discounting in any way that Logic has been optimized deeply within its code but this would make a difference in efficiency and CPU loads.
My 5 cents
Mark, I've always assumed the MAS engine would allow MOTU the scope to freely introduce additional complexity and features to audio processing/mixing, and so have been all for it.
Further, if MOTU's ever going to introduce optional DSP expansion, the engine will already be in place (subject to additional tweaks, no doubt).
Then there are the hardware interfaces - it would seem to me that a discreet audio engine that MOTU themselves created would offer both the benefits of self-contained/constrained processing as well as intimate knowledge of the inner workings of the beast.
