BrandonThanks, Brandon.
Wrapped means it does'nt work as a 'regular' VSt plug ? i need a wrapper,
correct ?

It shouldn't no. We're talking about mix stage, not recording stage.
Recording into 16 bit resolution you would want to take as much advantage
of amplitude, thus bit resolution. But when mixing you want to avoid
overloading the 2 buss master. Lowering your individual channel faders will
help you avoid that.

-scott v.I just installed Paris on XP and if I bott the comp frsh and run Paris I can
work on that song with no problems, however when I exit that song the next
song loads but won't play. I have to reboot the comp and then Paris to start
the next song. Also, if I try to load any previously recorded song that have
native plugins running it either locks or will play that song, but won't
load another. I am completely stumped, I need help!

Thanks,
MikeI assume it does Mic, but going by ears, things sounded good. I guess I
don't know for sure how lowering the fader level affects the bit depth in
DP. It is a question I was wondering about also.

>Quote from Dedric a little further down:

"I always thought Paris was harder to get a clear top end out of. Nuendo
sounded clearer to me immediately. Some of that was Paris' converters, some
wasn't. If tracks are being cut by 22dB before you even start processing
you are losing 3.5 bits of resolution from 24-bit files (depending on how
Paris transfers to larger bit depths for processing, and where it lops them
off in the end)."

The 22db cut is at mix stage rather than tracking, right? So I think (would
love to be corrected!) that Dedric is talking about a 3.5 bit loss as Paris
works its magic. Is this right?

bit reduction isn't an issue.

I can say that I didn't notice anything strange going on with my little test
recording as far as "graininess" or anything else I would call "low bit"
sounding. It was actually the opposite. I was able to hear more separation
and nuance than mixing at higher channel levels. I know it sounds cliché,
bit I could hear more space around each track. It was much easier to get
things to "sit right" in the mix. I'm going to try this on some higher track
counts and see if it still holds true.

>hi gene
I also went to a sonar demo last week, and that 64 bit subject came up.
according to the rep the sonar audio engine is running in 64 bit mode in
windows xp 32 bit already. you dont have to have win xp 64.
I have to admit i was impressed with the improvements they made .most
notibly the new features like real time audio warping.Its like they are
giving you vocalign,melodyne,recycle,drumagogg,and a fewother programs
integrated into sonarV 6.The rep had a mix of a queen tune they were doing a
remix on ,and it sounded pretty damn good, even through the PA speakers
they substituted for monitors.
I love cubase 4 , but that demo has me thinking again.
and it supports VST! imagine that.

Is that cfg file a general guide or one that works well on XP?

Are you sure you followed the XP install exactly. If you get carless installing
the subsystem, bad things can happen. It needs to be installed to the same
location as the Paris exe file.

Peaks of -25 to -15 are more than enough. Terry Manning of Compass Point
Studios (AC/DC, ZZ Top etc) turned me on to this on a different forum
and is a big advocate of it. I tried it. I have to agree with him that
it made a significant improvement in the resulting sound of the recording.

http://www.cubase.net/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=55258&highl ight=clippingalso on that thread,

Actually I was reading the book lastnight and it stated that a 24bit
recording at -48db is equal to a full range 16bit recording .. mind you,
I was quite drunk lastnight ( Twisted Evil ) so someone correct me if I
miss-quoted here!

Hi Alex,
Yes, the 64bit mix engine and the ability to run on 64 bit OS are two separate
issues. I saw it running all 4 ways.
As to “Its like they are giving you vocalign, melodyne, recycle, drumagogg,
and a few other programs integrated into Sonar V 6”

Yes but each of the programs you list work better than the integrated features
in Sonar. Particularly VocAlign, Which I use a lot, and Sonar’s audio stretching
is impressive but for drums, Pro Tools Beat Detective is a better approach.

The clever integration of iZotope Radius is perhaps the most exciting feature
for producer/engineers that do a lot of audio manipulation (Like me). Sonar
is certainly impressive. Even if the mix bus comes up short, I still may
consider switching and using external summing. The low cost of the competitive
crossgrade means that I will probably be adding it to my collection even
if I only use it for a few of its tricks.
Genewere you running win98 or ME just fine with this same config? Also, yes
you'd everythin would work normally up to the crash.

The only changes I made in the config on this machine was to run
256 I/O and 256 cashe
I ran 96/96 on the 98se machine.
All Paris functions are working fine, and I can run native plugins fine,
but when I try to exit that song and open another Paris will not play and
creates an error. Then I have not only reboot Paris, but I have to reboot
the computer too.

>>Hi all

I've been playing with Sawstudiolite and no matter how a configure things I
can't achieve accurate sync with Paris when tracks are loaded into Saw...

A straight flying tracks there and back via lightpitp results in 2055
samples of latency everytime, but record or drop a track into it and it
wanders all over the place. Bob the developer seems to think this is a
result of the MTC sync my Dakota card is generating from the ADAT sync in
Paris now I know Nuendo and Cubase lock to Paris

So my question is...what other apps do the same

ThanksThanks Rod

I thought that was the place

I always ran Paris on a PC.

Suffered but survived. :¬)

GeneIt's a 1.5v AGP mobo. The GEForce card is 3.3v. Now I wonder if the reason
I'm having all of these other problems is because I fried the mobo (and/or
the video cards). would running the cards undervoltage ruin them? this could
explain some other wierdness. I had those 3.3v cards running great in the
Paris mobo for about 3 days before things started going south. CRAP!!!!....I
hope the video cards and the mobo aren't all damaged. I need to take an
electrical engineering course.....I'm gonna get a gimme hat with "dumbass"
in big block letters.

(sigh)

;o}How do you wrap your VST plugs ?

Well, you download:

Extract the files and follow the instructions in the Readme33.txt

http://www.parisfaqs.comThis depends on PCI compatibility versions, but...

I was under the impression that all but the very last version of PCI would
accept 3.3v cards and run them at 3.3v. The final version of PCI (2.3???)
doesn't, but 3.3v cards don't fit in it as I recall.

I wouldn't have thought a 3.3v card would even run at 1.5...

Kim.

>Actually the 3.5 bit loss assumes either of two situations:

1) I'm guessing Chuck was referring to the EDS code, so if the gain
reduction happens (for some unknown reason) after reading the file off of
disk, and before pushing it into the higher bit depth processing section,
then it would pad 0's for any extra bits beyond 24.

2) More likely, if you reduce *all* of your tracks by 22dB, sum them, reduce
the master fader (as many might), then you could effectively have some
tracks lose their original lower bits simply because that is all pushed down
below 23-bits in the sum before sent back out as a 24-bit stream.

Next assumption - we can actually hear -122dB. :-) That's where this is
happening.

Really this isn't a big deal - what bothers me about the concept of every
track being reduced by 22dB without the express written consent of the
engineer/mixer is that it is misleading and presupposing you need to reduce
track gain to get the mix to work.

In any given large mix, I may actually end up with many tracks down by
15-25dB in order to keep the master in the right range, but it's easier to
make that choice based on what the song, the tracks and the mix need. For
sure it seems to work in Paris to some degree. But if you start knowing how
your mix should sound (hearing it mentally), and how each track should fit
into that, it's easy to create that sonic space with most any mixing medium.
That's where the argument about one DAW mixing better than another falls
down for me - it says the engineer is letting the medium dictate the mix
rather than the engineer. That isn't engineering.

Regardless of what you mix in, there is only 40Hz to about 17kHz of actual
human listening/hearing range in the final product, and only 0dBFS of max
level, and -96dB of min level. That's the space we have to work with, and
only so much can fit in there. DAWs don't prevent music from fitting in
that comparatively small range, people do.

The point really is that this technical discovery about Paris says one and
only one thing:

* When you mix digitally, control the levels of your tracks to fit the mix
rather than assuming you can just push up faders and have each track find
it's own space automatically *

Just my opinion,
Dedric

PS: We are in the midst of a blizzard here - about 10" on the ground now
with winds up to and over 40mph.

>Hi Lamont,

Yes, there is a difference between how analog handles "headroom", and how
digital does, but there is no difference between how digital desks and DAWs
handle it - they are all limited to 0dBFS for the actual digital data that
passes through. There may certainly be differences in how a digital desk
manages the digital path, or how you mix on it, but that doesn't necessarily
mean it's more than 24-bit all the way through. Unless a desk is completely
mixing within a cpu to maintain full floating point math, it will be fixed
point, either 24 or 48 bit for most of the path - the same as TC Powercore
or ProTools.

As far as comparing stereo wav files, if there is a difference with one DAW
vs. others, the one isn't representing the stereo track correctly. I can
open up any stereo wav file in SX, Nuendo, Sequoia, Vegas, and even iTunes
(since all of my systems are piped to the same playback converters), and all
sound identical, regardless if the original track was mixed on an SSL,
analog, ProTools, or any other DAW.

Now, if a DAW only supports mono files (e.g. Paris and ProTools), converting
an interleaved stereo wav file could sound different when played back in
dual mono, but that would likely be to a difference in pan law between the
source and the playback DAW, or alignment issues. I have heard this happen
(in Paris I believe) - the two channels sound wider, but the middle sounds
disconnected and almost "missing" with dual mono files for a stereo track,
where it sounds a little less wide but coherent across the middle as
interleaved stereo. I wouldn't say this *should* be the case with
interleaved stereo vs. dual mono, but it could be.

Obviously your workflow works great for you. Mine works great for me.
While a lot of engineering has a consistent basic technical methodology,
personal preference still plays a significant role. Now if we could just
get the "engineers" (aka artists' brothers in law, best friends, etc) that
are putting bad mixes on the radio to connect the technical basics with
inexperienced preference, we might be able to tune into listenable music
again some day...

Regards,
Dedric

Nah Deej, just pull out the ole trusty the SAWZAL!

TyroneBasically this inolved strapping this across every track in a mix, applying
a UAD-1 Delaycomp on the first slot in the application and then adding UAD-1
and other plugins to the subsequent slots. The thing that killed this idea
was that in order for it to work, it had to be used on *every* track so that
there was a uniform amount of delay compensaion. then it was just a matter
of sliding "all" of the tracks to the left in the Paris editor to the left
by a certain amount to cover the buffer latency of the host machine.

Well....there are a few of these host applications........sooooo.........
Chainer will allow access to up to 10 x ASIO I/O.
FXPansion Simple Virtual Host will allow access to 4 x ASIO I/O
Forte, for my purposes, would allow access to 10 x ASIO I/O
Steinberg VStack will allow access to 16 ASIO I/O..
RT player will allow access to a few more ASIO I/O....


So it appears that using all of these on the same machine, I could, "in
theory" access *at least* 40 ASIO* I/O and that's all I would need for a
real time mix scenario.

Now assuming I was running all five of these on the same system
sending/returning signal in and out of 40 RME ADAT I/O whil'st processing
these signals through 4 x UAD-1 cards (and other VSTi's) with a UAD-1 delay
comp instantiated in the first slot of each host set ot compensate for 4 x
plugins and that all of these VST hosts had a predictable latency
...........well.....you know where I'm going with this, don't you?

;o)Didn't Jason Miles win a grammy not long ago?

---=_linux4540d2c9--So, if I've got VST effects working on my Paris system, should I bother
trying to wrap them? I've noticed that things like meters on VST effects
don't work, but the effect still seems to. Does the wrapper make the dancy
lights and stuff work on VST effects?

What are the preferred options for general wrapping of VSTs?

Sorry for the dumb questions, I'm just trying to get my head around it.

-scott v.;o)....seriously.....do you think I could have damaged the mobo by running a
3.3v card in a 1.5v slot...and/or damaged the video card?

....well, one would think, but apparently not in this case...A Love Affair....the music of Ivan Lins...the song was She Walks This Earth.
Sting on lead vocal. Excellent CD. I think this won a Grammy in 2000-01. He
may have won other Grammys as well. I think he still uses Paris. Any hits by
Markus Miller are likely to involve a Paris system in the production as
well.

But did you tell him that the DAW is called Paris, so it should work.

>Thanks Dedric. I really don't consider myself to be an "engineer". I'm a
songwriter/musician who wants record professional sounding tracks in my home
studio. I've been into mixing both live and in the studio for 20 years or
so, but am completely self taught. Any "real" knowledge is always
appreciated. Anyway, this new approach (for me anyway) might just let me
actually get the kind of mixes I hear in my head out of DP.

Hell....I've got the guy who wrote the code for MRI machines here to help
me. His wife is one of my studio clients. His brother-in- law is my partner.
This can definitely be done and I'd love to learn how to write my own stuff.

Once I get the studio back up and running I'm going to try to find the time
to write a VST FX rack that can access unlimited I/O and plugin
slots........I'm going to talk to Dan about this ASAP.

Scott,
Yes the wrapper will fix the GUI of most plugs. My UADs are still
showing meters with latency though.

I just find Paris such a joy to mix in though.

knocking down the latency of these plugins to a low, as in maybe zero and if
not zero, then at least a predictable number of samples which could

DeejSMPTE was a no go...sending smpte to dakota results in it converting it to

way of reading smpte on my second rig although all ideas are welcome

Not to throw a damper on things but isn't wires, like ADATs (in XP) unable
to cross submixes and isn't that an inherent part of Paris' mixing
architecture?

Wouldn't this be somewhat like re-route or rewire or whatever that thing is
called in terms of routing audio to various points inside a different
application

Inquiring minds want to know

Soyou can route 64 audio tracks back and forth inside pulsar from VST host

If it is the Pulsar mixer than that would be OK, but I want to get as far
away from Cubase as I can. If I wanted to use Cubase, I could use the RME
cards I have now.

I don't mean Cubase.
Pulsar can receive up to 64 ASIO destinations and send on up to 64 =ASIO
sends.
So any vst chainer/host or whatever you call it that can load vst's and output
on different asio can do the trick.
I have used thru cubase (well...) sending 32 audio tracks back and forth
via pulsar.
You can use 32 bit floating ,32 bit integer, 24 bit asio devices from within
pulsar !

No problem with my intel comoputers.
Used ASUS P3BF , ASUS P4B, Asus P4B-E, Abit BH-6
all 440 chipset work great.
These are dead cheap.
But on planetz forum you can search for newer working pc's
I am sure new models work as great.

WTF? As far away??? Why this change in attitude?

NeilHi,
Even with all these high end shits , mic preamps ad converters microphones
sometimes you get amazed by some folks using "cheap" alternatives like Yamaha
01v or AW4416 workstations.
I heard some drums and I heard "that" sound on the snare I am looking for
, crisp punchy and with lot of harmonics.
Like "californication" song ,you know what snare I mean.
I believe they used O2 on that song, not sure.
So as a cheap alternative would I get the same sound using DS2416 dsp factory
with analog ins and adat out ?
I amsure it is the yamaha converters and not probably the mic preamps.
If it is also mic preamps ( I wish not) then I could get me a cheap old 01
(not V) and use analog outs to DS2416 analog in (DS 2416 has same internal
routings like 02) and then an adat out card to paris or pulsar.
What do you think ??
Regards,
DimitriosDJ,
To help you understand.
Pulsar lets you alter its ASIO routing to achieve that amazing 64 in out
asio routing !!
Appears as asio 1,2 3,4 5,6 etc.
Now ANY asio related host appchainer will showon its routing when selecting
Scope asio these exact ins and outs.
Thats exactly what I was using all that years well with cubase.
If cubase 5 did that for me I am sure you can use like chainer to compliment
that routing.
So why bother with wires when Pulsar comes to rrescue ?
Can you imagine the possibiolties ?
If you can run Pulsar at 3 ms (why not I could) then using the "millidelay"
free sample delay inside scope you can delay all your audio routing for exact
nudge intervals (80 samples 160 samples etc)
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dimitrios

>Dimitrios,

What I want to do is as follows:

Create a Paris mix template with 40 tracks with each track having an insert
inabled and routed to that track in the Paris virtual patchbay.

I will have 40 ADAT inputs and outputs routed between Paris and the Pulsar
cards.

Now I want to be able to send my Paris tracks to the Pulsar mixer, process
them there with Pulsar plugins and Uad-1 plugins at a certain fixed latency
that I can compensate each track in Paris, and then return them to Paris
without having to use Cubase SX as a VST host at all.

Is this possible?

Thanks,

DJ

You can do that of course but you will have to use a chainer VST loader like
chainer or forte , whatever that will load the vsts take input from scope
asio sends and send back thru scope asio again back to pulsar mixer.

>So since neither Forte or Chainer will allow more than 16 I/O if it is used
as a standalone application I can open up Forte or chainer on each of the 40
Pulsar channels and this will allow it to see all 40 of the ASIO I/O and I
won't have to use Cubase at all? If this is the case, I'm drooling!!!! This
is *exactly* what I've been hoping for!!! Building an Intel machine to
support this will be a pleasure.

If you can't get it I can give you a nice sample or two that
you can use.

I already called MacMall and ordered me up one of them there 15"
2.33GHz ones.

I was waiting for the Core2 chips since the rumor started that they
were coming....

Same price as before, but better chips, double the ram, larger hard
drive, and one more FW port.

The worst part now is waiting for it to ship.

pabInquiring minds want to know :-)
Why do you want to throw Cubase out?

used in this way, at least on my machine. Once you set up a project with 48
tracks with 48 I/O busses set to monitor with FX, it's just not that stable.
Now maybe there's something wrong with my computer, but Forte was much more
stable than Cubase SX wuth much lower CPU usage with the same bus count.

I think I have found the ticket here.

I've been chatting with the developer. He says the bussing is limited only
by the number of I/O and the plugins are limited only by the CPU
horsepower.

the mobo gets siphoned for more current than it perhaps can deliver.

There is a vst chainer called RT Player which the pro version can accomodate
32 asio ins and outs !
BUT I would encourage you use cuabse for that,one because you have it , secondly
it can accomodate all 64 asio ins and outs and thirdly You can only use VST
mixer as chainer with no audio tracks.
VStack might be useful or Cubase 5 which I use which is light and simple.
I will try RT Player for you to check how this works.
Dsound is making it.
I searched all chainers and is the only one to my knowledge that can acommodate
32 asio ins and outs.

Cubase 5 is so damn easy and light I just opened 64 asio ins andouts and
cpu goes to a 13 % on a 2 Ghz cpu Intel.
So you can have 64 !! vst chaining possibilities.
Cuabse runs on Pulsar computer of course.
Your UAD1 set must be on another computer I guess or same ?
Note that Pulsar cards eat a lot of pci bandwith.
So if you will use on card you can carry away with UAD1 cards.
Beeter though use 3 cards and another pc for uad1

>>Hi DJ,

I guess what we are talking about is two things:

1. An ASIO host application with let's say 64 ins and 64 outs. This app
would also be a VST host application that would let you insert plugs on each
of the 64 ins. It would add up the total latency on each input, buffer the
output to some consistent user entered amount, and send it out the output.
The latency for every channel would end up being exactly the same user entered
amount.

2. A simple VST plugin that would allow you to select an input and output
ASIO channel. That's all that one would do. This plug wouldn't have any
latency of it's own.

So my question is..... Is there any other possible use for such a setup?
I would be willing to get involved in an open source freeware, ad/donation
supported project for this if there was.

ChuckChuck,
You have hit gold here.
Well at least amoung Paris users...
Can you imagine all Parisians have the ability tosend their Cubase (sorry
DJ) tracks via asio destination channels to Paris for mixing ?
So one could instal a basic simple audio card with low latency like rme or
other like pULSAR which can have up to 64 asio destinations, well 16 would
be great 8 would be enouph.
Thus you can open a vst effect on Paris audio track 1 choose asio destination
1 and then on Pulsar environement asio 1 will receive the output of that
channel.
So if a Paris user installs a Pulsar II card (3ms) then a paris audio track
can go out to Pulsar have a great digital eefect and come back on vst again
with asio to complete the route.
That could be done with rme/Cubase on same computer with Paris or other combination.
Anyway Chuck I am willing to pay for it 100$ is ok ? he
One thing that matters is the vst instances must be synced at the same latency
asio card will use. I guess that this may be obvious but anyway I woulkd
like to point.
Other daws that luck asio could benefit also.
How much would you define as a payment for the time and skills that would
involve such a task ?
Regards and thanks !

Well, I've been interested for some time in trying to see if
summing through Paris (or something like a Dangerous 2-buss,
folcrom, etc.) will make a difference - I like what I'm
getting out of Cubase, but I'm always open to other options.

Just hate to stand the chance of losing that high-end
transparency that i'm getting right now, but we'll see.

Thanks Tom!

-scott v.Dimitrios,

The Aw4416 is a high-end sounding studio in a box. It's converters are some
of the best in the box. They are "Highly sought after units that are "secret
weapons" of some producers.

I recently mixed a project (Gospel) that originated from the newer Yamaha
AW line (AW1600). MAN!!! Amazing sound quality. The pre amps are from the
DM2000. If you even heard the DM-2000 mic pres, then you know what i saying.
I hear that the top of the line Aw (AW2400) is in a "sonic" league of it's
own. basically, it's a DM-2000 with a recorder.

I was so impressed with these units, that i'm planning on getting (AW2400)
as my remote recorder/mixer in place of my laptop setup.. It's just that
good..

Does this work well? Are there cable length restrictions?

ThanksChuck
would an auto latency compensation plug in be easier to build?Im no software

It might be, but I'm looking at a few other angles:

1. The plugin code in paris is ancient and it runs lots of newer plugs poorly,
with weird side effects, or not at all. This would be an opportunity to run
the plugs in a modern environment, and get latency compensation

2. We don't have access to the VST/DX plug-in code, or any other paris application
code, so I can't really produce a delay compensator.

3. Since there are other, but more limited apps like this out there that
act as effects, instrument hosts, i figured that there might be an audience
outside of the paris community that could use it too. That's the only way
I would really take on something like this.

Check, what if you included, as part of the whole package,
a few plugins as well (maybe a basic selection of dynamics,
reverb, EQ, modulation stuff, etc. - just some different flavors
of those types of things)? That way it could give anyone &
everyone a reason to try it beyond just the routing options.
Are any of the plugins you ported over port-able to VST? If so,
you could use some of those.

NeilI hear that. I wouldnt want to work for next to nothing either.maybe someday
edmund will have a change of heart and i can dust off the paris rig again.if
i live that long :-)"chuck duffy" <c@c.com> wrote in message

http://www.cherryridgestudio.comChuck,

There is already an ASIO host application that has unlimited I/O so #2 has
been covered. It's not simple though
http://www.plogue.com/index.php?option=content&task=view &id=21&Itemid=35
I haven't tried it yet but will likely get around to it over the weekend or
early next week. I was thinking of something that could interface directly
with Paris so that the UAD-1 cards could work directly on the Paris DAW
without having to interface via ADAT on a second workstation. Old Magma's
are cheap these days and having the cards in the Paris workstation running
Win XP without having to interface with a second DAW using lightpipe would
be ideal. this is why I was thinking of Wires. As far as an ASIO driver,
under the "Paris DAW being host" scenario, without an efficient ASIO driver,
for Paris, I don't see this happening. To tell you the truth, I haven't used
the Paris ASIO driver in years. I wonder if it would work with a VST host
like Forte or Chainer? I do remember some latency with this driver, but it's
been a long time. Anyway, as far as third party uses for the VST host you
are proposing in #1 ...............I honestly don't know unless they were
wanting to stream from a DAW with no latency compensation to a digital
mixer. I don't think there are any DAWs, other than Paris left on earth that
don't have latency compensation.

If you decide you want to do this, I will support your efforts 100%.

Thanks,

DJ

I have three Magma chassis, two 13 slot models and a 7 slot. They all just
work. My only complaint would be that the original fans are quite noisy.
IIRC, there are a couple different cable lengths, the longest being
something like three feet. You may find more about that at

busses everyone would be happy?

I think you are misunderstanding a little :-) The asio streams in this "new"
asio host would be all virtual and not require any hardware or adats interfaces
at all.

The "new" vst plug when used on a channel in paris would let you select a
route in and back out of the "new" asio host.

The "new" host would accept real vsts and delay them to a specific user entered,
consistent threshold, then feed the output back to the same "new" vst plug
in paris.

It would be hardwareless.

The only thing wires can do is re-route signals from one place in the EDS
to another. Believe it or not, I don't have access to the actual audio!

ChuckAhhh.....OK......so Paris would open this as a VST plugin? Can't we already
do that with chainer, etc?

1. I thought chainer didn't allow enough channels, or enough instances.

2. I thought the other VST hosts you were using required physical audio connections
(ie were not virtual) .

3. I thought the other hosts didn't have enough asio channels

Please excuse my pestering but Reaper has two relatively new things
happening now...one is the their version of rewire (routing between apps)
and the second is "Remote" which is Wormhole-like (passing audio via
networking) and between these two things it might be what you're looking
for.

Checked out your website and listened to samples. Very nice.

Hope you get some praise from the industry.

Well
1)you will be needing another audio card that supports asio
i.e. Pulsar card with scope environement (which can acommodate 16adat channels,spdif,2
analog) Pulsar can give you 64 asio routing channels.
Now if Chuck's vst2asio plugin can "see" these channels (or less than 64
maybe 24 whatever) then if pulsar runs at 3ms asio the latency beetween pulsar
and Paris back and forth will be 6ms.

2) If you are gonna use Cubase on same computer with Paris you will be needing
either pulsar card or rme card on same computer with paris.
So vst2asio will see the cubase asio outputs and so audio can transfer back
and forth.

3) If you are gonna use also UAD1 cards there will be a big pci stress on
the machine.

I see only true benefit with a dsp card like Pulsar which has asio or any
other dsp card with asio like Emu or maybe the Nuende or Focusrite ...

If you don't need to use UAD1 on same computer I am sure with one asio audio
card cubase can be this way intergrated with Paris on same computer with
very small latency as so to bring in VSTI and other.

Just some thoughts...

Dimitrios

any ideas?


jefsorry that's 40/28. I just took out the adat card...that wasn't it.

could be the new eds card?....I installed the software with an older eds
installed, then got a "hardware not connected" failure so I swapped it
out for a newer one i had kickin' around, which is when I got the message.

Will do. MacMall just sent me a shipping notification....


Of everything BUT the MBP.

So, I can stare at the battery and the software boxes. Whee.

pabThat's not true, and dont let anyone tell you it is.
You still need to get all levels as optimised as possible, as we all did
with tape.
Otherwise you are not using all the bits available to you, and noise will be
the end result.
This is why the good/great engineers are what they are...they make sure the
levels are hot....just not to the stage of distortion.
it's a balancing act, but, hey, who said anything done properly is easy.

equivalent to UAD FX...not exactly the same, I wouldn't expect that, but
equivalent. I would really like to be able to use the UAD-1 cards with Paris
in a low latency environment though.These FX just wsound great and I'm used
to working with them so mixing with them is comfortable.

Again, I'm not sure.

The only one that I know of that does is the one by Plogue.

I'm definitely not an authority on these things. I have used Forte as a
standalone VST host. It worked great streaming over ADAT but I ran out of
channels. The one with unlimited channels looks promising, but I don't know
*what* it requires, other than it will recognize *all* physical I/O and
allow it to be configured as busses of various types.

>OK, if you haven't read my other posts then here is my situation:
I am installing Paris into a new AMD dual core cpu, I had encountered problems
with the video card's IRQ setting and I think I have resolved that issue,
however I am having a new problem...
I can open and run Paris successfully after initial CPU boot, but once I
close it I can't open it again without a rebooting the cpu or I get an error.
Also, once in a while, when I close a song and try to open another song I
get a fatal exception. I installed Paris according to the specific instructions
and I am using the XP drivers and the subsystem is installed correctly.
What could be causing this?

What you are doing is not using all the "bits" available to you, and
therefore start introducing unwanted artifacts into the mix.
If the "bits" aren't there on the original recording, and the levelis
cosewuently low at the mix bus, no matter what you do, you can't get those
bits back and the resolution and "size" of your mix has to suffer.
I record as hot as I can, and use the channel faders to mix, usually never
moving the master fader, although having said that, my mixes for TV/ Doco
work are not quite as complicated as most decent size music mixes would be.

>>hi martin
I think what john is referring to is what started this thread. We are
trying to emulate the way paris handles files at mixdown, not at recording
files, at mixdown.
chuck said that paris automatically and transparently cuts channel levels
by -22db, and then adds it back automatically when it hits the submix bus
much the way analog consoles do.
what we were toying with is if was possible to emulate that *effect* with
other daws by cutting channel levels 22db and making it back up at the
output bus.
what we dont know is how cubase/nuendo mix bus handles the files.or exactly
how paris does it for that matter.
If we can duplicate the way paris handles the mix bus DJ can sleep nights
again .

http://www.parisfaqs.comThanks for that well thought out "rant", Neil.
Thats pretty much the way I feel with Nuendo, although I don't put an
abitary setting on each channel, (probably because I''m only recording a
couple of tracks at a time,) but I certainly record to within about 8dbfs
from 0, and always put a limiter on the output,
