also see doing a mixture of AAC and Wavs or Apple Lossless.
One thing that confused me;it says Apple Lossless gives you the
same quality as AIFF and Wav,but is half the size.Can it really
be the same quality in half the size?
Anyway,this looks to be a really fun toy and putting mixes on
it versus the whole cd burning thing will be quite cool.

------=_NextPart_000_0043_01C60F9D.41F400F0--You bet! Actually, you don't have to do it that way. You could just
normalize down/up from the highest fader value in the mix.
I haven't gotten in to the automation or the automation editor yet either,
except to just make sure the automation worked after my install of Paris.
But its on my list.

>The automation is a great feature, but I too stay away from it cause everytime
I sit through mixing.. I end up changing things... and I haven't figured
out how to "edit" the automation either. Funny thing.. I been using my Paris
since 2001 and I just use it for basic tracking/mixing. I never got into
all the features... but it's on my list too.. lol. By the time I learn,
Paris will be obsolete. Oh! it IS obsolete... lol. So, what do you use Paris
for? You got a band, or just play with it, like me? I don't go out much
(not too many places to go in southern MD.. lol.) So this is my hobby and
my little get-away. It's been fun. I started out with a Roland system.
But I knew I had to move to a DAW since it wasn't easy to edit single files/channels
on the Roland. Ok.. I bored ya enough... Thanks again and I'll try the normalize
funtion... ~ Ed

>Hey Deej,
Map a drive. So, you have two machines, one named Old_DAW one named New_DAW.
On New_DAW right click on My Computer and select Map Network Drive. Select
Z for the drive letter (or something else, I always start with Z) and map
\\Old_DAW\c$
which is the admin share of the old machine. Then you should be able to copy
over whatever you want.
If this doesn't work, try mapping the admin share (\\New_DAW\c$) on the ME
box.
Also, make sure your TCP/IP settings are set even if you don't think they're
being used. 95/98/ME can do strange things like use NetBIOS name resolution
but IP file transfer. So have Old_DAW be set to
ip 192.168.1.2
sm 255.255.255.0
gw 192.168.1.1
And New_DAW set to
ip 192.168.1.1
sm 255.255.255.0
gw 192.168.1.1
Notice that New_DAW winds up being the gateway for Old_DAW which is how you
want it. Also, if the sm (subnet mask) isn't the same you ain't networking
anything.

>>Unfortunately, no, re an audio file being there, and I checked before

foolishly didn't check before clicking on the assertion error, so not sure

it's gone, period, but figured maybe there's some odd secret place. But I

Thanks for the responses, though.

>I wasn't disappointed with the Roland's sound. It was it's functions and features
that turned me away. And of course the company support. Then I turned to
Paris and found lots of support, only to shortly watch all support (except
the newsgroup) go away. As you probably heard from many, we were suppose
to get an update to Paris 3.0, but the company bailed out on us. So, in protest,
I immediately got rid of that Pace crap (if you know what I mean... shhhhh)...
lol. Do I feel guilty? No one bit!
Anyway, to tell you the truth I am not quite sure I understand what you are
trying to achieve, but it sounds like you are doing you own mastering from
your mixes and it sounds like you want to bring the "mastered" stereo files
back into the song and find it (hear it) sonically equivelant to the original.
Is that my understanding? To be honest, that is exactly why I am going
through all my projects again and remastering them... I tried to do all my
mastering myself... I've learned alot about it since I been doing it for
years now... Having the proper tools (and knowing how to use them) is the
trick. Having good ears and having a multitude of playback devices and speakers
to listen. As I read one article, you certainly don't want little suzie's
boombox to be farting... lol Sorry, but I found that ironic and very true.
My normal routine is to find a great mixdown in Paris with decent studio
speakers (believe it or not, I currently use Behringer B-300's for this).
Then, I use the old CoolEdit Pro and convert the mixdown to a .wav. In
CoolEdit I use a touch of iZotope Ozone plugin (which has a great equalizer,
maximizer, etc.) and then convert to 16 bit in Cool Edit. Burn it and listen
in the car, the truck, the boombox, home stereo, even put it in the DvD player
and listen through the home theatre system. Of course, to be honest, you'll
always find things to adjust or wrong.. you have to know how to say to yourself...
enough... even put it away for a week sometimes helps. Mastering is very
time consuming, frustrating and sometimes down right the nasty part of a
recording session. But it's either pay piles of money for a professional
master house or learn and do it yourself. If you wanna talk more, we can
exchange email addys instead of clogging up the newsgroup... but if not,
tis ok... anyway, thanks for the help and nice little chat... :)

>Hi Don, thanks for the offer to help. I must admit the manual is terrible

I am using Paris 3.0. I only see the "normalize mix" option in the Functions
section on the Mixer. When I select it, it wants me to adjust the total
mix by maximun Db. I'll have to play with it I suppose. But I could have
sworn there was a way to control all faders at the same time....

>>Hi everybody!
I hope you all had a less crazy 2005 than I did! On the bright side though,
my brother's kids now live right around the block from my kids, my mom gave
me my (late) Dad's GMC Safari, I finally paid off the Honda Odyssey and all
the charge cards, refi'ed my house (15 year, 5.5% fixed), started a Roth
IRA, and I tripled my 401(k) contribution. I put my studio back together
after taking it apart to record others and to participate in Different Skies
( http://www.differentskies.com ) and I was able to finally add the KSP8,
the Eventide 4000 (wish I could afford an 8000A...) and the Echoplex Digital
looper that I've been lusting for. I even started playing EWI... Phew!
So, guess what? After all that, I should actually have time to work on
Paris again this year! Woohoo...! OK, question time - "Is WDM dead?" Is
ASIO the only way to go now? Is Audition the only program that requires WDM
drivers any more? What about plugin formats? Is VST the way to go instead
of DirectX or is that still up in the air?
Happy New Year!
Doug
http://www.parisfaqs.com
http://www.dougwellington.comThe automation editor is pretty cool. I only wish I could type in values.
For instance on bringing an entire track with automation up by .5 db.
Also, the shift/ fader for .1 db tweaks trick would be nice in the automation
editor,
Check it out though

>Hey Cujo
You *can* "shift" to get smaller values when moving the automation
points. Also, if you click on the track number in the editor, all of
that tracks auto points turn red allowing you to move them all at
once. Further, you can "shift select" additional tracks... all 16 of
them actually, and move the whole shebang up or down.

>Hi Everybody...My first post to the group... Happy new year... Hey does
anyone have a suggestion for a intermittent clipping sound which happens on
random empty channels to the right of an operating channel? I know this
sounds weird but the channel can be empty with the fader turned down and I
still get a click every few seconds... It still happens with nothing plugged
into the inputs of Paris. I can see the click on the level indicator
onscreen. It can happen on any channel but it is always to the right of an
operating channel, and usually an unused one. I hear it on playback but more
importantly on my mixdowns as well. I have reloaded the software but as yet
have not managed to track the problem down...
Thanks,
Jim.One of the main double edged swords or using *nix systems is that at their
core they are multi-user systems. This creates some problems, the most seasoned
unix ninjas occasionally wind up with user based head scrathers. The upside
is that one develops a "feel" for permissions problems. This happens to me
once a month at least where I'll be working on something and say to myself,
"Wait, this just has to be permissions." Operating systems that try to "hide"
their multi-user roots (XP and OS X for example) have their own problems.
Which is why even my XP music box at home is set up to log into a domain
(a Debian samba server masquerading as a domain controller) and has three
accounts on it. I keep it that way just to remind me I have to worry about
it.
BTW - mapping the admin share would have fixed this as well ;-)

I hate to be the bearer of bad news upon your first visit, but what you're
describing may well be an EDS card on it's way out. Do you have more than
one card? If you do does it happen on only one?
Other possibilities for wierd clicking sounds are power supplies which are
not up to the task, though your description involving it always being the
channel next to a used channel sounds a bit more to me like it's the card
for some reason...
Hopefully someone else has a more positive suggestion...
Cheers,
Kim.

This is out of left field, but very pertinent to Paris...How's your Power
Supply, sounds like it could be on the way out or under powered for Paris.
Have you added any new hardware?
I'm sure others here will have other suggestions too.
Good luck.

This sounds to me like a cooling problem.
What has worked for me is leaving an empty PCI slot between my EDS cards
and cutting a round hole in the side of my case and mounting a colling fan
that blows heat away from the eds cards.
No more clicks.
I would try running with the side of your case removed and see if the clicks
still happen. I bet they won't.
All the best,
Mike

You are a beacon of hope!!!!
Congrats on a successful year. I wish I'd managed to pull as much together!
As for your questions, I think that WDM would still be great for a simple
left and right out driver. We don't even need an input because we could
use PARIS for that. A stereo out would be great for mastering CDs in Pyro
or whatever or editing in Audition. Maybe the audio could be sent out both
the mains and the monitor outs on an MEC at the same time with no additional
config options. That would be wonderful (and hopefully not too hard to code)!
As for VST vs DX, I have no idea.
Happy New Year!
Mike
I'd even pay $99. :)

>Often if you open the side panel on your case it stops the correct air flow,
and you can have more heating problems. For testing, you could open your
case and try using a house fan and have it blow directly in to the case on
low or medium.
A couple of years ago in the summer when it was vary hot, a friend had over
heating problems with his Athlon. This was partly due to him not having
AC. He opened up the case and used a 13" house fan, problem solved. You
could have roasted a 25 pound turkey in two hours in that bed room though:

I was having click/pop problems when I built my last AMD box running 2 EDS
cards. I would hear these pops and see these little spikes in the editor,
and even stranger still, I would close the project, reboot the box, go back
to the same project and the pops were in different locations. I installed
new 400W pwr supply, re-vamped my cooling setup and still had problems.
Turns out, it was bad ram, swapped the ram and pops went away.....strange
but true.
Good luck man.

I agree that your advice is better. I found that just opening the case worked
for me, but the fan idea is safer.
Let's hope it works out for him.

Aside from the aforementioned heat and supply causes...
Do you have any Native plug-ins inserted on the adjacent
channel? Is it possible you selected a stereo Native plug
and only have audio on one side?

>Normalize Mix is the correct function. The Maximum DB level is what you
will set to move the faders - this is the value your highest level fader
will be increased to, and this amount of increase will be the amount all
faders are changed by. As an experiment, set all your faders a 0 db. Now,
lets say you would like to raise the entire mix by 5 db. Select Normalize
Mix and enter 5db for the maximum db level. Now all your faders will move
up to 5db. If this worked for you, then take one of your actual mixes you
would like to increase. Lets say you want to move the faders all up by 3 db
and they are all at different levels. Find the fader with the highest level
(make sure your unused faders are below this value). Lets say it is at 2db.
Now select Normalize Mix and set the maximum db gain at 5db (its 2db level +
your 3d increase). Now this fader moves up 3db to reach the max 5db value
you chose. At the same time the other faders will move up 3db as well.
If you wanted to lower the levels, just set the maximum level of the highest
fader down by however many db you want. Lets say the 3db above was too
much and you would like to reduce it by a db. Same procedure, just set the
maxumum db level to 4db. This reduces your max level fader from 5db to
4db - a one db change for all faders.
Hope this helps. I use it a lot and it works for well for me.
