28 track project right now with 9 analog processors and a 70%
UAD-1 load. I just had a mix 99.9% ready to burn and I uninstalled a plugin
and replaced it with a different one. Got a corrupt project warning and had
to revert back to the last saved project. Luckily I had done a save about 5
minutes before so I didn't lose much, except the final tweaks. Of course,
there was a guy looking over my shoulder while glancing at his watch saying
stuff like "dude.......I've never seen Pro Tools do anything like that. You
gonna' be able to fix this quick?".

I think it is just the v4 software. Luckily I can go back to v3. I will lose
some features that I really like (and which are the reason I upgraded to v
4), but I may just have to do this.

I replied to your PM , BTW

At least you could be working right along until until they get
C4 version 1-point-bugfix released.

I can tell you for sure that 3 will save the routing. It saves
it with the project, as long as you don't forget to save the
project once you've changed any patches around... which is easy
enough to forget, since AFAIK that's the one feature that it
DOENS'T prompt you to save any changes made therein. And as I
mentioned, it'll also save specific routing scenarios if you'd
rather go that additional route (which can be nice - that way
you can have a basic trax recording patch template, for
example).

So, Deej, what you're saying is that you tried saving routing
changes in both ways that I had pointed out & it still isn't
doing so?

> Oh, the humanity....I know your frustrated but if you had read the Cubase forum you would know
clearly that it is not on that pro level. It's simply not there. Many people
with paying clients have made that exact claim in the Cubase forum over and
over.

example: http://www.cubase.net/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=75146&highl ight=ready

It's like taking a nice Nissan Pathfinder and trying to race it against a
Porsche. it's nice but it ain't no Porsche.

I think you got to get rid of it before you go postal.Hi Neil,

I do have SX3. I bought SX 4 for some of the features, but it seems this
proggie isn't ready for prime time in some areas. I thought the people on
the Cubase.net forum who were going ballistic about the ugs were just a
bunch of wankers until I started trying to push this program a little. I may
go back to SX3....or I may just upgrade to N3. One of my clients is writing
music for video and I think N3 may be a logical move to make. It's got the
features of C4 that were the reason I upgraded from SX3, plus it's got the
post capabilities.

I did try saving the routing scenarios as you described. Sometimes I can
save a project, shut the computer down, reboot it, open the project and
everything is saved. Other times, the patches (inputs mostly) are
disconnected and sometimes different inputs and outputs have been assigned

to the external FX. the idea of the drivers initializing in a different
sequence would make sense except that the I/O that are patched into my
digital patchbay are not being switched, and if these remain the same, that
would indicate that the cards are showing up in the same order each time.

> I think you got to get rid of it before you go postal.Hello, collected wisdom of the Paris world-

My best friend Bonnie just got her new IBM laptop. She bought Norton Ghost
but has never used it, wanting to wait until her new laptop arrived and she
could make a clean install without it ever having been on the internet. So,
she's ready.

Ghost thing has two versions, 10 and 2003. Which should she use? I've heard
(can't remember where) that older versions of Ghost were better than the
newest one, which I assume is 10.

I just read all the old Paris posts mentioning Ghost, and http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/
is mentioned. Looks like a good thing. The reference to it said it works
with Ghost 8. This seems to be no longer availiable.

Any suggestions, ideas, etc? Bonnie's ready to do something...

-steve the mostly mac guy

(Although I have an XP machine, and I think now I'm going to try that http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/
thing myself...)Nuendo 3 is totally solid here as well.

>> Oh, the humanity....I "may" have found the fix for the patching wierdness. It seems that Cubase
may want the external hardware to be patched from top to bottom according to
the way it numbers it's inputs and outputs when they are recognized.

IOW, if I create my favorite external instruments in the same order that the
I/O show up, then if I want the left channel of my TL Audio EQ to be the
first external instrument, it would be patched to Multiface analog I/O #1
because that's the first one that shows up in the I/O list. If I wanted the
left channel of my Demeter compressor to be on analog I/O #15, I would have
to create it as the 15th external processor in the "favorites".

It looks like this may be the situation. I will be testing this further over
the weekend. It's a time consuming situation and not the way "I" would have
done it, but if it is the answer, dealing with this doofussness is much
better than having to repatch all the processors.

sheesh!!!!!!oh yeah.......this would be a workaround, since if the program was
functioning normally, it would save whatever was patchede to whatever else.
All this will do is allow "it" to do the patching by default.......but
anyway...whatever "it" wants to do, I guess I'm fine with,.

Oh, If you want to link channels it will hose up the record enabling, so
you need to FIRST record enable the group of channels you want to link (like
10 drums), THEN LINK them. Then it works fine so far ;-)

If you don't do it that way then only some of the record enabled / linked
tracks will actually record.

JohnHe's going to sit on one of 'em. That way he'll get that spinal-
level imaging that most people find to be so elusive.

My room is tuned quite well, the monitoring chain has no short-comings from
the microphone to my monitors. By moving the sub around the room, you can
hear it's placement. Likewise, different placement yields different results.
So I'm going to put one Adam 10" Sub on the left and one on the right configured
in a 3-way design.

ther phat kick sound (and perhaps dropping the tuning) is
interesting and *can* help in some cases, especially in case you are trying
to deal with total suckage that absolutely can't be cured any other way, but
micing the kit right the first time is definitely the way to do. I'm not as
experienced with mixing drums as some folks here but it is lots of fun
learning it and I'm really discovering more and more about what an integral
"instrument" a drum kit is.Hey Dj,
I have a dedicated Firewire drive (80 gigs) of Drum -wav/giga samples just
for Drumagog..

I would have to say that suscess using this plug really depends on the Arsenal
of samples at your disposal..

Although I have BFD(DELUXE), I really don't like their samples. Yes, I prefer
my drums samples to already be "Procesed"!! :).. IE..Sound great out the
box...BFD approach is to let you process those raw drum samples like you
would a "real" kit..

Problem is: If you don't know how to achieve great drum sounds witha live
kit, then using BFD will render no help at all...That Means: If you call
up a BFD sample via Drummagog, ...you then have proceed to treat the sad
drum track like you would a live "Miked" drum... Yikes!!.

That's why I go with the great sounding "Already Primo" Drum samples.. Hey,
I'm a Producer/Composer/Engineer...I need quick , but, great results...fast,
when I call up Drumagog.. Not tweaking to get those RAW BFD drums right..

Hey, on another note: Native Instruments Battery 3 is a BEAST!! And the Library
that comes with it, is First class.. In-which you can use these great samples
with Drumagog..

killer drummer). Trying to improve it with BFD is just basically
dumb........but that's how I learn stuff, if you haven't noticed.
