Is there a key combo that will alllow me to rotate this control on the C-16

Thanks,
Deejanother thing to try:
My original paris card developed a case of worn contacts, and got a similar
(though I can't say if it was exactly the same) message.
I resilvered the worn contacts with a silver contact pen from Radio Shack
and it has worked fine ever since.

I saw part - sounded totally like she was singing to a track. Vocals
were too clear, too precise, too much like they were sung into a LDC
studio mic and not the handheld RF jobbie she was using. And again,
all that movement and no extra breathiness.
But she does understand stage presence.

>Sample Slide Tables 3.0 44.1
For As7333 and Windows xp 16 bit
44.1 version 3.0 windows xp
Bounce panned center, raise vol up 2.9 for accurate level
Bounce panned hard left or Right, down 0.1 for accurate level
1ms=80 samples
Note: all latencies assume the use of FXPansion 3.3 Other versions or brands
will most likely yeild different results
(for wrapped plugs like the UAD) I know the older version of expansion had
a little lower latency, but had an annoying bogus error screen everytime
I used it. Also, I find it easier to hit the "100" nudge button only, instead
of a combo nudge, like Tom uses..so my sample slide numbers will be a bit
different.
1. UAD (1176, LA2A, Dream verb, Plate verb, Fairchild, channel strip, Nigel,
Neve 1078 light, 1081 light, 33609 light)
Nudge back 400ms (4x100) add 1536 on sample slide
2.UAD Pultec and Pultec Pro..back 400 ms…add 1523 ss
3.UAD Prec. EQ and Neve 1078 and 1081 Big dog EQ’s back 400ms add 1505 ss
4.UAD Prec Limiter back 400 ms add 1472 ss
5.Prec Multiband back 800 add 4096 ss
6. Neve 33609 comp big version…..back 400ms add 1469ss
7.Copying track and adding EDS dyn. (or just adding Dyn.) 1ms back and
78 samples
forward{{ EDS Dyn. adds 2 samples latency}}not really a
big deal.
8.EDS Dyn (track copy or just insert) w/.001 lookahead 1ms back and 33 samples
forward (You might have to click the lookahead to 0 and back
to 1)
9.EDS Dyn (track copy or insert) w/.002 lookahead, Back 2ms and forward 67
samples.......other lookaheads w/.003 lookahead, Back 2ms and forward 21
samples
w/.004 lookahead,

DRUMAGOG
14. Drumagog 3ms back and 43 samples forward (with 3.3 latency in tracking
window)
15. Drumagog (recorded files)3ms back and 25 samples forwardNever. Ever. not in this lifetime.
I'd rather watch a colonoscopy...

do yo have the eds1000 or the eds1000+ (that's the one with the

>Mike, I'll bet you can do it - I think for the VST synth count
you're looking for you may have to go ahead & RAM up to 2 gigs,
but if you're going to be working at 44.1k or 48k, I'm betting
you should have no problems. My Native rig is slower than the
one you're going to build & I can get into the 40's in terms of
track counts, and at 88.2k, to boot, and I routinely use three
verbs (Usually I'll have a room verb for drums, some other kind
of reverb for other instruments, and yet another - usually a
Plate - for vocals, plus most of the time another group for a
delay.
Now, depending on what other EFX/plugin's I'm using on
individual tracks, I may have to start "Freezing" some tracks
in order to be able to keep the buffer settings at such levels
that I can maintain low latency (if it gets down to this,
usually I'll freeze the kick, snare & bass, and sometimes the
rhythm guitars - most of the time, once I get whatever
compression plugin applied to those, it's pretty much "set it
and forget it" for me, anyway... plus if you need to "unfreeze"
them it only takes a moment, and then to re-freeze it, just a
couple of mere moments more).
Regarding your VSTi's - while I don't have a ton of experience
using them (I have a few, just don't use them much), I
understand that if you're using a lot of sample-based VSTi's
you may be better off going with a third hard drive for
streaming those samples (1x system drive, 1x audio drive, and
1x drive just for the VSTi samples); so you may want to do some
homework on that to see if that's indeed the most-recommended
type of setup.

If anyone can give me an idea of what speed chip (what setup they are using

it would help me greatly. I'm looking to get 32 or so - any and all sugestions
are welcomed. Thanks in advance!!I don't think there is a way to have finer control using the C-16.

I think there things to consider.
1) Doing both, composing and recording /mixing, I feel should done on 2 machines..
2) Having sais, you can do both on a fast PC/Mac setup. However, to get optimum
performance,you have to make some choices.
-Compose (midi Sequence) you song first with VSTis
-Then Either freeze or render those tracks audio tracks.
-You really want to do the above first, because when you start tracking live
instruments or vocals and adding fxs(plugins) depending on you track count,
your PC will start to slow down..
That's why I like the 2 PC/Mac approach. 1 for Instruments, & 1 for Audio
recording and mixing..

Sooooo...have you actually gotten Paris to run on a Dual Core AMD?? I'd be
VERY interested if you have. If it's still a "hopeful" scenario, I'll be
watching you posts. Lead the way DR. Frankenstein.

Thanks Aaron. Now HTF do I stick this thing to the top of my C-16? Is there
some kind of translucent paper with an adhesive backing? I guess I could try
to figure something like this out using labels or something.
Appreciated.

>HI Rich,
The current Intel Core 2 Duo based system is the way to go now. The AMD
x2 series are good if you are one a budget. The AMD Am2 based series do
not perform any better than then X2 in the DAW world and have quite a
few chip set compatibility issues.
A Intel e6600 CPU will perform better than any AMD cpu up to the Dual
Cpu dual core opteron 265 series.
Most all of the current name brand 975 chip set based motherboard
already or will be soon supporting the new Quad-Core Core Duo CPUs.
If want to go for something that will be have a excellent upgrade path
then the Intel Core 2 Duo setup is the way to go. If you are on a budget
then the AMD X2 would be best.

chrisl@adkproaudio.comSorry to keep starting new threads on this topic. My internet access was down
for a while there.
Following the advice of several folks here, in an attempt to get each PCI
slot its own IRQ, I have some data and a question.
I have PnP O/S disabled. I found the following info, in two sections,in my
BIOS:
1. a list of these IRQs, with the choice of "PCI device" or "reserved for
legacy ISA devices": 3,4,5,7,9,10,11,14,15.
2. PCI slot 1/5 IRQ preference
PCI slot 2 IRQ preference
PCI slot 3 IRQ preference, all with the choice of "Auto" or the option
to assign an IRQ #.
What next?Hi Dedric,
The Core2 based system seems to be the lowest latency setup from what
I've seen and tested so far.
The Quad core that I'm using in the home system atm is letting me run
projects at the lowest latency of my Fireface 800 which is 48k buffer.
I haven't been able to get any demo project or project that I've done to
choke at that latency. I had to redo our in house Cubase/Nuendo
benchmark just to push the damn thing. The 3 UAD cards don't really like
the latency that low. They seem more stable at 128 and higher lol.
There is performance hits on the Xeons at the low latencies but at least
with the quad core Xeons the extra horse power makes up for it.
The Core 2 Quad runs circles around any Dual-Core Opterons I've tested.
Here is the bench mark we use currently. It's based on the same
methodology of the infamous Blofelds test but with out sound card
performance issues. I haven't tried this on many machine other than the
Opterons, Xeons and quads so not even sure what results there will be on
pre-Core 2 Duo system or a AMD X2/AM2 system. I just finished it
Haven't had a chance to right all the instructions out yet. Basically
load the project at 1024 buffer load as many magneto plug ins as you you
can then save the project under a new name. Adding 1024 to the name will
help keep track of the versions. Reload the project to confirm that you
can run that number of plug ins. make note of the number.
Close the program then reopen the default project and repeat the test
for each latency setting.
If you have any problem or suggestion for the test let me know so I can
fine tune it if needed.

Let's make this clear - I only saw what I saw because my wife, who's a
fan, was watching part of it as I was drifting off to sleep. I was
not driving the remote control.
pabHi Chris,
I'll run it tomorrow and let you know the results. I'm sure my X2 will give
paltry results next to the quad and probably fall well short of the core duo
as well. ;-)
I'm holding out for a dual quad core at some point, but a dual core-duo is
also tempting.

>>Some newer computer printers will print to clear plastic sheets for overhead

a C-16 Pro templet on the Paris FAQ site. Maybe you could print, die cut,
and glue down with contact cement or Velcro it. Or, you know, just use duct
tape; )
What would really be good, is the clear material they use for those non adhesive
window stickers. If non of that works, you could just use a P-Touch printer
with black tape instead.

---=_linux456e3890--I was walking home from the hot springs last night and saw one about that
size crossing the road about 50 yards in front of me. I'm not kidding in the
least. He was trailed by 5 or 6 cows. It's the end of hunting season here
and the big, smart ones have survived by hanging out in the suburbs. We've
got about 4 acres of pasture behind the house here and this valley is one of
the largest elk wintering grounds in the US. They usually inhabit the big
meadows and the golf course across the road from us next to the Animas river
during the day (which makes the groundskeepers absolutely nuts) but after
the sun goes down they sometimes cross the highway, jump the fence and hang
out with our horses at night and they are just as big as the horses.

the 80 pin flat cable. It just got here. It's one of the newer ones with the
round cable!!! This is the one that is compatible with the Magma PCIe
adapter. I wasn't expecting this but it certainly adds some flexibility to
my system down the road as suddenly I've got a situation here that would
allow EDS or any other PCI card to be potentially compatible with newer PCIe
based mobo's. This could also be a biggie for the Pulsar cards since the
consensus of opinion is that .due to PCI bandwidth limitations, only 3 x
Pulsar cards can be used in a system.
Hmmmm........my 3 Pulsars will be loaded into this chassis tonight. I'm
hoping this will give me a bit more in the way of DSP use since the
unorthodox cable I've been using may be limiting my DSP availability. Later
down the road, I'll likely be getting into a newer Intel core duo system and
I'll snag one of the PCIe adapters and have a PCIe compatible Magma.

You gave up the remote? I'll bet your one of those wimpy guys that gives

Nah. Let the laptop GPS software/receiver puck do that. It's my job
to ignore the little voice and just keep driving.
pabYou know, it just can't do any harm, right!

mobo PCI #3 and the 3 x Pulsar cards are in Magma PCI slots #1, 5 and 11 and
they are all sharing IRQ 18 and not sharing with any other device. Also,
there are some more wacked out possibilities with this system since in this
2nd chassis, PCI slot #10 is on IRQ 17 and so is mobo PCI slot #2 and this
IRQ is only shared with the LAN card which can be disabled so, in theory,
could be used for another Pulsar in the Magma or a PCI Firewire
card...............sorta' thinking Duende here, I imagine that my PCI bus
would likely scream for mercy......but who knows???...........this
definitely needs to be explored at some point

I think I will do both maybe studio just on weekend buyouts or something.
It would be very difficult to schedule two completely different businesses
like
these together during a work week.

I didn't see much of the NBC airing, but I caught part of this
again on Bravo last night, and it wasn't bad at all! I saw maybe
five songs total, and one that I would have to say for sure
wasn't lip-sync'ed (I say this because she started out talking
to the audience, and then when she started singing, there was no
perceptible difference in her voice, plus you could tell she
got a little short of breath in a couple of places) was "La Isla
Bonita", and I found that interesting because that was the one
that had the most energetic dancing in it out of bunch that I
saw. The other songs I saw had less strenuous dancing & there
was more processing on her voice in those - so whomever
made the lip-sync comment, I couldn't really tell in those
other songs.
I thought it was good! She did a nice job, and some of the dance
moves were interesting - not just a lot of bump & grind &
skipping around like she used to do when I'd see her videos
(live cuts or otherwise) on MTV back in the day when they still
played music on that channel lol.
I'll give the girl props... she's in great shape for her age,
her voice sounded really good, & disciplined (whether she
recorded some of it prior or not), and there was a lot going on
visually - very different than your typical rock show with
"light symphonies" & pyro (you know what I'm talking about,
right? the kind of light shows where they feel they have to
accentuate every note with the lights ALL CONCERT LONG).
NeilChris and others,
This is the reason I prefer DSP based DAWS. We spend way too much time on
PC/MAc upgrades, chip-sets, what won't play with what..etc..
You're constantly on the DAW upgrade path which to me,is getting very old.
This is strange coming from a DaW builder and studio DAW consultant. But,
I've had enough. After my last Opteron upgrade, I said "That's it".. :)

>chrisl@adkproaudio.comLamont - Chris and ADK build native DAWs as a business. As far as I know
they don't sell ProTools or Soundscape, but Chris can speak for himself. I
for one appreciate his participation, contribution and advice in PC
discussions here and don't see how it is contradictory to studio consulting
advice.
If you prefer dsp based, that's great. I can't see how upgrading a PC or
Mac is more expensive than upgrading a dsp DAW a la ProTools, Soundscape,
etc. Then consider that you still have a PC or Mac running those systems
that will have to be upgraded at some point, in some form (e.g. a new
version of PT software comes out, a new conversion tool update, etc).
And if you want to run Giga, NI softsynths, etc...same thing.
And fwiw, we were advising Mike R. on what options are out there now, not
talking about updating our PCs once a month.
Best of luck!

>The downside of the prevailing "DSP-based" (and I assume you're
talking about Pro-Tools here) is that it's so expensive that you
could be on the "upgrade path", that you so decry, on a regular
basis every couple of months & STILL not equal the cost of an HD
system! Then when Digi decides to do one of their system
upgrades, you have to pretty much buy everything all over
again... again at a very high entrance fee.
There are, of course, advantages, too - which I think are pretty
clear to most here, but it's not all shiny happy people in
Digiland, either. Just some perspective there.

>Dedric, I think you mis interpreted my post. Ilove what Chris and the guys
do. My post was about just reading about variuous trials and tribulations
and the cost fator of being on DAW upgrade path, which I was very much apart
of the trend :) I was just recently(Jan 06)that I've taken this pro-DSP based
(for me) position.
As a person who has (1 Paris PC, 2-NativeNeundo PCs, 1 Giga PC, 1 VSTi PC)I
pretty much quality as a PC -DAW gear slut. But, I reconnized that after

Lamont,
You mentioned in the Pulsar thread:
"My XP /Paris rig is so stable, and with the URS and Waves SSL plugins..
It's
mixing dream for ITBB mixing.."
Would you mind posting your setup, computerswise especially, but
also Paris hardware. I really don't want to jump through as many
hoops as the multi computer thing. I am getting fantastic
results as is with paris, especially using lots of analog inserts
and external verbs. I just want to increase my horsepower and go
to the SSL plugs etc. Sounds like you are doing what I want to do.
I use 3 mecs with 8 analog inserts per mec (8in/8out cards) with a huge rack
of outboard. A couple of ADAT cards for returning the verbs like the KSP8,
spdif i/os for verbs on various cards, and IF2's for multing via analog
verb sends across submixes etc.
I have one UAD card and usually get a sound I like and just render it.
I want to go to a 4 mec setup, with more plugin horsepower. Like I said,
I love my setup, and it brings me all the work I can handle.
My inquiring mind wants to know... :) 'preciate it...I'm going to give the Pulsar thing one more shot, but with a
lower-end card (the Project Card - the $750-ish one, plus a Sync
Plate so I can get it to properly do 88.2k); I certainly didn't
need all the DSP (and subsequent additional expense) of the big
card if I couldn't use it for summing AND plugins at the same
time, so I'm going to try the Project Card & use it JUST for
summing... we'll see how that goes. I'll post a clip of the same
section of that one song I did summing comparison files for
already, so now we'll all have comparisons of an identical mix
summed in:
a.) Straight Native 2-buss, ITB
b.) Native "Stems" Mix
c.) Mixed in Native, Summed in Paris
d.) Mixed in Native, Summed in Pulsar
e.) Maybe also a "Stemmed in Native, Summed in Paris" version,
as well.
It'll probably be a week or so before the card gets here & I
have a chance to get it installed and up & running...
....the search for the grail continues LOL

>Hey Neil,
No, I was not only talking about Pro-Tools. But a little perspective. There
are still alot (read more) Pro-Tool Mix3 setups than HD setups. So, you don;t
have to upgrade the various Digi setups if you wan to..
I was talking about PAris, Pro Tools, Soundscape..Radar.
P.S.
I personaly would not for over the money for the Creamware stuff for summing.
The truth of the matter toimprover your ITB summing, just get a decent analog
or digital mixer(Mackie..Yamaha 01x 02r,). Most of the current summing boxes
are nothing more than the forementioed mixers without the faders.. Electronic
Musician did a summing shoot-out this year and the results were astounding.:
needless to say , that a mackie VLZ summed just as good as most of the 5k
summing boxes. So that should tell you something and it should tell you that
by add a better mixer to sum than the DAW is all that's needed..
I use a Soundcraft Ghost console to sum for now, and yesit even improves
Paris stereo imaging. For Neundo and Pro Tools, it takes it to another level.

chrisl@adkproaudio.comHey LaMont, the NI stuff (and my other 3rd party Audio Unit plugins,
Zebra, GPO, Ivory, Cameleon, etc.) already run great on my dual 2.5GHZ G5.
Tons of tracks, no prob.
When I next upgrade the studio Mac it will be for animation/graphics
production reasons. The upcoming 8 core Mac Pro would be good for that.
I'm also tempted by the new core 2 duo Mac laptops, they're about as
fast as my dual G5 which is amazing for a laptop. But I'll probably hold
out for a laptop that can hold more than 3GB RAM.
I'm in no rush, my dual G5 works great. I'm having fun with the new NI
updates.
Cheers,
-Jamie

>chrisl@adkproaudio.comI'm blowing out my rig here and installing everything new. In the next few
I'll be at SP1a. I've never put SP2 on my paris rig, never had a reason to
and things like firewall and DEP made me nervous.
I already have it back up and running with the required 3 displays, 2 EDS
cards, SBS 7 slot and a few PCI cards (USB, 1394, NIC, etc...). I want to
keep this build simple and to the point and put the UAD/VSTi thing of on
another machine so I'm more concerned about stability than things taking
away CPU time (xp1900+, Asus A7s333). The heavy lifting for virtuals will be
on the other box, yet to be built. Probably will also use a crossover cable
to feed tracks back and forth as necessary. Machine will not ever touch
internet.
I wanted to poll the group on one thing:
Has anyone found a reason that they -should- install Service Pack 2 to Paris
for?
AAHey Lamont - I probably did misinterpret. I don't disagree about the
advantages of hybrid/dsp at all.
I think most everyone on this board knows the pros and cons both ways, and
most all of us have quite a bit of experience building
systems (except Mac users perhaps ;-). After all, part of the admission fee
here is that you be a bit of a DAW/gear slut. ;-)
Even Mac users have to admit it gets expensive buying a new Mac every 3
years or so just to gain more power to
run VSTi's and plugins that demand it (depending on the user's requirements
of course). However, that is no different with dsp rigs.
You end up adding $5000 Accel cards to an HD rig to add more power, unless
you start with HD3 and never need more than that.
So the costs are actually relative. You don't save money by going with
ProTools or Soundscape or Fairlight, you just spend it in a different way,
and once you add in the cost of comparable plugins in TDM format, you do
spend more, no way around it really. It's a matter of going with
what works best and makes you more productive and profitable.
As Chris pointed out in another post, native is most common in the pro realm
for composing and sound design (which is most
of what I do, along with audio post - hence my interest in Fairlight).
I also agree with him that dedicated dsp plugin cards are getting a bit long
in the tooth.
Imho, it's time for Fairlight to get out of their closed market mindset and
release CC-1 as a standalone generic dsp engine
for DAWs, plugins, etc (or more likely, time for other developers to get on
board with it - could be in the
works already from the way it sounds....). Or perhaps Clearspeed will
eventually have some DAW applications.
The goal for dsp/hybird I prefer is a more open platform so we can begin to
merge our preferences in native and dsp into
a truely expandable environment - more flexibiltiy and upgradeability with
that approach - better longterm investment, imho.

Dedric

If you are going to be using it strictly as a Paris rig then you won't
need SP2. You may need to install Direct X 9.0c depending on the plug

chrisl@adkproaudio.comHey Dedric,
OK, I had to look it up:
My dual 2.5GHZ G5 cost about $1200 additional in 2004 after selling my
previous dual 1GHZ G4. I can't say that's all that expensive for the
jump in processing power, especially considering the many things the
system gets used for here.
I think Deej has me beat in having higher computer costs, and probably
most everyone else here, too, who has been building machines and
replacing them over and over in the last few years. And that's not even
counting the time it takes to build them and debug the problems we hear
about.
Meanwhile the trusty G5 still does all the tracks and AU/FX plugins I
need. In fact it's gotten better with the periodic Logic updates, OSX
updates and updates from plugin vendors, the system has gotten more
solid and capable over time.
So I don't need to buy another computer for audio. Priceless. :^)
Any further studio computer upgrading here will be due to
graphics/animation/video production. Although the G5 is doing reasonably
well in those areas, too (was one reason I got it), so there's no big
rush to upgrade.
I agree that it's a matter of going with what works best for whatever
you do. And also, what you value in the process.
Cheers,
-Jamie

>>Don't have it, but here's what I'd try in your spot.
First and foremost, read the documents and see if there is any reference to
not working with older wrapper, and/or contact UAD support and let them know
what you need to do and get their opinions.
Create a ghost image of your current installs.
Leave your current wrapper as is except pull out any pointers to the UAD
stuff. Remove the UAD software.
Create a new folder on your C:\ drive and name it UADVST or something
similar.
Reinstall the newest UAD version/reg codes as necessary, only make sure that
it points to new VST folder.
Wrap the UAD with the new wrapper.
The old VST's are still wrapped with the old wrapper, which I'm assuming
since your on paris to be version 3.3, yes?
Rescan the configs making sure the directories are pointing at the right
folders to scan for plugs.
Keep in mind that I've never done this and this is just my first impression
of how to tackle trying to get the 2 wrappers to play nice together.

You are exactly right here - price vs. performance was once a significant
difference, but the new Intel Macs are right in line with comparable off the
shelf PCs. Of course one can still save $200-$400 building a PC vs. the
same config in a Mac, but not buying off-the-shelf. I tend to defend PCs to
some degree, but the new Macs are very nice.

For me the multiple systems are needed for orchestral libraries, and PC or
Mac, that's pretty much standard for composing (there are guys in LA I've
talked with using even larger rigs).
With hundreds of articulations required for a score, there isn't a single
box that I could use to run a full complement. And what I could load into a
current PC/Mac will usually only account for about 30 seconds of scoring in
one style/tempo.
I am guessing that with 64G of Ram in a quad quad core or dual octo core we
might get closer to moving large scale orchestration to only one or two
systems, but the low latency capabilities in the dual quads aren't scaling
as expected yet. But even then we'll probably just be using 24/96k sample
libraries to continue the networking requirements. It really isn't any
different than running outboard samplers/synths. Not quite as convenient as
running everything in one system, but also not as bad as it sounds (actually
quite liberating to know that the percussion section will always be there -
no dropped timpani rolls during French horn crescendos :-)
Then if I add in other cpu/ram/disk streaming intensive VSTi's, full screen
DV resolution video playback, the faster/more the better - I already have an
extra PC is dedicated to full screen video (not unlike using a VCube or deck
really).

>You can do whatever you want in terms of pricing... the idea
is that you're simply giving the client a discount for the
block of time vs. what they'd pay if they booked it by the hour.
For example, if your normal rate is $60 a hour, you might price
a ten-hour block at $500. Some places sell 12-hour blocks, as
well or instead) you can structure it any way you want. It's
also known as a "day rate" Google a few studios & see if you
can find some that list their rates on their website (some do,
some don't) to get an idea. Some studios consider their day rate
a complete "lockout" for as many hours as you want to go, but
those are the also (sometimes) the ones that have more than one
engineer they can schedule in, so a session might start at 10
in the morning & go 'til 2 or 3am, but since you're just one
guy, you have to determine if you want to hang that long (I've
done PLENTY of those when I worked in a studio, sometimes for
weeks on end when there's a big project!).
There is no "common" scheduling for this sort of thing - it's
pretty much what you can fit the client in for, based on what
kind of start time they want. If they want to book two ten-hour
blocks over a weekend, one starting at 10am on Saturday &
the other starting at Noon on Sunday, and that works for your
schedule, then there you have it.
Brandon, here's what I would suggest... and I know virtually
nothing about the recording scene in your market, so I could be
wrong, but I'm guessing that most of the bands & musicians
that you're going to be able to bring in when you're just
starting out are going to be part-time musicians with a day
job, students with a little bit of extra money (either theirs
or Dad's), and that sort of thing... E.J. will not be coming by
right away, in other words :) and don't forget the
occasional Mom who thinks her daughter has "just the BEST voice
you've ever heard!" & wants to do just one song. I'm gonna
venture a guess & say that most of the bands in this
classification aren't going to be doing a full CD at their
point of evolution, so what if you offer packages geared around
a 3 to 4 song demo and another single-song package? Something
like this, perhaps:
WEEKEND DEMO PACKAGE:
3 to 4-song demo... allows for up to 20 hours of recording &
mixdown (Two 10-hour blocks, one on Saturday, one on Sunday;
start times are flexible based on agreed-to scheduling at time
of contract). Package includes:
* Set-up on Friday evening (up to four hours) at no charge.
* Complete Recording & Mixdown of up to four songs.
* Audio CD containing the final mixes for each band member (up
to six band members).
* Full backup & archiving of raw tracks, as well as all mixes.
Total Value of package = $1,500
Special Package Price = $1,000
SINGLE SONG PACKAGE:
Allows for up to five hours of recording and mixdown of singer,
plus one to two accompanying instruments (Client to provide
instruments/musicians. "Karaoke" tracks may also be used for
accompaniment - in this case, these must also be provided by
the client) Scheduling based on availability of time. Package
includes:
* One hour of set-up time at no charge.
* Complete Recording & Mixdown of one song.
* Three (3) Audio CD's containing the final mix of the song.
* Full backup & archiving of raw tracks, as well as the final
mix.
Total Value of package = $400
Special Package Price = $300
NOTES: Time in excess of the above-mentioned package blocks
will be billed at our standard rate of $60 per hour. Additional
CD's are available at the price of 5 for $15. 50% deposit
required at time of booking, with the remaining 50% to be paid
at any time prior to the completion of the mixdowns. No
recorded product may leave the studio until payment in full is
received.
Packaging it this way means you're not just selling "time",
you're selling the end result... which is what they're looking
for anyway. The single-song package works out to a lower hourly
rate, because you're not recording a full band's worth of
instruments - it would be one those "knock it out in a
weeknight" kinda things for the stage mom who wants a CD of
their kid singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" or for the
person who has written "one great song" and wants to bring
their acoustic guitar in & record him playing & singing - that
sorta thing.
Whaddya think?

UA is a very small company. This is the same necessity of survival that

That dude as Eisen is pretty cool. If I could I'd send him my L3s for a pair

is the Gefell M900 which may be great on AG.
I know you don;t know what all my gear, but what out of this list would you
want?
Is the UAD 1176 close enough that I don't need the MC77?
A D12 or D20 is still in my future too.OK, so my system ***WAS*** rock-solid stable with the RME cards
until either:
a.) Deej jinxed it by talking abou how unstable his system was
with RME hardware vs' the Pulsar stuff, my system heard about
it, got jealous for new hardware too, and started purposely
fucking up so I'd buy it a new present too (LOL).
b.) When I installed the Pulsar ASIO drivers, then de-installed
them, something went wrong on the de-install & maybe that
driver's still interfering with things somehow (but I can't
find it, so I kinda doubt this is the case).
c.) When I recently reconfigured my setup, I had to get some
new BNC cables for my Word Clock since the other ones were too
short. I have a feeling it has something to with this, rather
than the other two possiblities.
1.) The cables are all 12 feet long... not too long
according to the Lucid wesbite (I have a Genx6-96) where they
recommend no longer than 15 feet.
2.) The cables are RG58A... I believe this is 50-Ohm... would
that make a difference & cause jitter from hell?
3.) I never bothered terminating the Multifaces before, and
never had a problem... should I be terminating the outputs?
Could the longer cables be making a difference in whether I
should be terminating the WC-outs on the RME's?
'preciate any help
NeilNeil,
First things first. Pick up your clock and move it close enough to your
Multiface units to try the old cables. If you're good with them then there's
you problem. I've lived in clocking hell long enough to know that one funky
cable can drive you nuts..unless,of course, you want to be up all night and
then try this as a last resort.

Personally, I think you should get something with Cranesong splashed across
it.or maybe Fearn.
suffer dude........you've entered Mercenary territory and there's too much

service. You are right though someone suggested an E22, That I'd need 2
of for sure. DJ do you compress to Paris?

>Hi Martin,
I'm running Nuendo on the main system and Cubase 4 on the second. I have
them linked via VST System Link (SPDIF). SL is more accurate than MTC,
locks faster, and chases jog/scrub better. The video/Cubase 4 PC runs a
full screen MJpeg window, in Cubase 4, using Quicktime (17" Samsung LCD). I
convert the original Final Cut file in Vegas as MJpeg .mov, DV 720x480,
progressive, best quality, etc.
MJpeg seems to work best for native PC playback in general as I can cut down
to 75-80% of the original's size and still have acceptable quality (slightly
less clarity than the original, but no blocking or color degradation issues
as with some other codecs).
I don't have anything else running on this system when syncing video, mainly
for client playback, otherwise it's a waste of Cubase 4 :-). This machine
is slightly slow for this (Athlon XP 1900 with ATA100 drives), so it skips a
frame every now and then, but maintains sync (though I'm still looking to
eliminate the skipping completely in other ways).
Sys Link with Cubase 4 and Nuendo 3 really works quite well. It's a
temporary solution for video, but a faster PC with SATA II Drives would
probably be perfectly fine.

Dedric

regardless, so I'm wodnering if the 50-ohm ones (vs. the 75-
ohms that I've seen most WC cables made up of) are what's
causing the problem - or at least COULD be what's causing it.

>Hey Dedric, what is your cpu configuration (dual or single) and speed?
How much RAM do you have?
It sounds like your setup is more RAM starved for sample space, and
shouldn't necessarily be CPU starved for processing. Can you set the
disk streaming for more efficient RAM usage?
Large libraries shouldn't need to be in RAM all at once. I run the NI
stuff you listed and a bunch of other Audio Unit plugins, including some
pretty large sample sets, and it's no prob here. Granted I don't run the
EW stuff and if you're right about EW, I'm glad I don't.
I have 2.5 GB RAM at present and it's been enough so far for some fairly
large arrangements. Other than the sample-based plugs, some AUs are
synths that depend more on CPU power than RAM and they run fine in large
projects as well, with the G5 muscle. Plus live instrument tracks and
copious FX plugins, no sweat, one box.
What's with 8 PCs recommended to run the EW plugs? If it's just samples,
that's way overkill for CPU power, assuming they're talking about
current boxes.
If it's RAM limitations, then A) sample libraries shouldn't have to run
completely in RAM, and B) current machines have a lot of RAM support
available to buffer samples - for example 16GB on current MacPro boxes,
which should be plenty o' RAM for sample buffering.
If it's an HD i/o speed bottleneck for streaming samples, how about
adding more SATA cards/drives?
I also wonder about the use of 300 tracks. A real orchestra doesn't have
300 sections. It doesn't even have 300 individual players.
Are you using 300 tracks on your stuff? I'm not. Shoot me if I do, the
music would get lost in the overproduction.
Maybe the folks you talked to are just trying to save time preloading a
lot of plugins they won't necessarily use, that's a choice I guess. But
it'd be quicker and waste less resources to work out the arrangement
with fewer plugins (but still plenty). And then add what's needed to
refine, if anything. I'm not going to fault them for using outboard
samplers, that just shows they've been around a while, have a lot
invested in that setup, and it works for them. But anyone starting now
wouldn't likely go that route.
BTW, GPO switches articulations/sample sets on the fly and runs very
efficiently. Big ensembles, small footprint.
Sorry to hear about the trumpet player at your wedding, are you sure it
wasn't an EW plugin? ;^) I'm really looking forward to hearing your demo
piece!
Cheers,
-Jamie
www.JamieKrutz.com
PS. You're right about laptops, next laptop I get I'll evaluate for
using the plugins at live shows. It should be as fast or faster than my
G5, although with less RAM expansion and HD flexibility.

Havent tried it,but it looks promising. It can also be used as a standalone
effects
unit. Street price is $399 I think? MOTU has a unit with the simalar spec
without
effects. http://www.motu.com/products/motuaudio/ultralite/

Thanks
JamesIf there isn't a way inside Cubase to do these kind of things, there will
allways be a way outside.
I have allways fixed things like this with old CoolEditPro or new Adobe
Audition ver.1.5 or 2. If you have one of these programs, I don't think
you'll have problems when "clickcleaning" tracks or other noisy problems.

>Neil,
Open the file in the wave editor in Cubase. If you scrub through the file
using the scrub tool you may be able to find the
click. They don't appear as sharp spikes all the time. Often it's a short
2-3 cycle triangular, or saw wave looking section of the existing
sinusoidal wave with a much lower amplitude - in a smooth passage, it's
apparent because some of the sides of the click on the existing wave will be
almost vertical. You have to zoom pretty far in, but not all the way, or
you will mistake it for normal modulation.
Once you find it, just use the pencil tool to flatten it out and your click
should be gone (you don't have to be Rembrandt to draw this
well enough to work - just an approximation of evening it out works fine).
This does take a little experimenting to find the clicks,
either by playing it through in the sample editor and stopping when you hear
it or scrubbing (often harder to hear clicks when
scrubbing at half speed). Let me know if you find it. If not, I might be
able to post a jpeg shot of a click so you'll have a better
idea what you are looking for. Don't try to fix it with crossfades or cuts,
unless it is between words, phrases or separated syllables (in which
case a stadard edit is easier than a pencil edit).

Dedric

A friend is thinking of picking up one of those small Orange Class A amps.
I think you posted you got one. Could you write up a quick opinion/recommendation/warning
for me? I'll pass it on to him.
TCBI'm interested, too. They also have a deal that if you have a receipt for
a copy of AutoTune, they will give you $100 off the normal $299 price--you
just have to scan and email them the receipt...

>Hi Neil,
All you have to do is snip a section of the adjacent audio, copy it and then
paste it over the offensive little part. also, if appropriate, just
highlight the area and right click on it, go to the menu of tols and create
silence there or attenuate the noise by -xdB. You could also copy it over
itself and phase invert it.

chrisl@adkproaudio.comDeej, exactly, but can you do this in the Wave Editor window?
I can do this outside the window, but not inside it... should I
be able to do it inside as well?
BTW, the phase-flip or silence thing won't work in this
instance, as the two clicks are within a sung note (which is
also why Dedric's idea of pencil-drawing down the waveform won't
work either, becasue all that would do is decrease the amplitude
of that portion of the note, alnog with the click, since the
click is actually softer than the prevailing amplitude of the
note itself).

There is a bit of an issue with the STDM cable length I have here so one of
the cards is in a slot that uses IRQ 17 for now. I'll be building another
cable in the future with about another inch of lead to the 3rd card in the
Magma and then all of them will be on IRQ 18. right now this causes some
flex in the PCB's of two of the cards I don't want to stress them.

Torry here (TC), I'm the guy who bought your RME stuff from you a couple years back..
That was me who bought the Orange Tiny Terror (I almost typed "Tiny Tim" :-), unless Don did also.
I bought this on site after trying it in the store, but it was one of those "wow" moments, I was
not shopping for amps at the time.
It sounds fabulous. Warm, big, smooth. We a/b'd it with a larger Orange head (can't remember the model) through
a Mesa 4x12, and it sounded noticeable fatter than it's larger sibling.
Tons of gain, but not ugly, harmonics and overtones come through nicely. It reminds me a bit of an older modded Fender Reverb
that we once rented for the studio.
The cleans are nice. It probably won't match a AC30 for that, but still very usable.
Plus Side:
3 knobs, easy as pie to get a great sound.
It's the size of a small lunch box or camcorder case.
Carrying bag.
7 or 15 watt output.
Price is excellent
It's quite a bit louder than you would expect
Down Side:
It's a single channel. (I bought two of them for gigging with an ABY switch).
Might be hard to get at this point (I bought the only one that came in and ordered the 2nd one).
At one point I was going to get a Zvex Nano for the studio, but running this in 7watt mode gives me more options,
plus I can actually gig with it. I'm very happy.
Cheers,
TC
At the price

However, my first impressions of all Variax (electric) guitars I put my
hands on was that they felt cheap. I'd be willing to pay big bucks for the
Variax guts in a decent guitar, though.
For the record, I use their flagship modelling amp (Vetta II) and am
constantly amazed at all it can do. All I'm missing now is a Variax-like
input into it... but I just know that no matter how flexible the Variax
might be, if it feels like junk compared to my main axe, it won't get played
and will just gather dust.
DanAh, I thought Aaron was asking about the electric. My bad.

I went with the 700 electric for a better build, feel and look, but I'll
bet the 600 is OK for a more stratish setup. The 300s (electrics) I've
played have varied widely in fit and finish, some much better than others.
The 700 Acoustics I've played have had good feel, best of the bunch, and
the few I tried were pretty consistent. My first one had an immediate
electronic problem, the replacement has been dependable. You should try
that model. Haven't played the 300 Acoustics but if they're made in the

It's sadly amusing to see that Creamware's way of doing things hasn't
changed at all sense I dealt with them years ago. Some of the user
responses you all got are are hilarious in their denial of facts.
Any of the effects available could be coded and ran in a current native
system. Creamware, TC and UAD types do not want to do it for the simple
reason people could easily steal the software. The big thing that the
Creamware DSP cards offer which same goes for Pro Tools is the ability
to do it very low latencies so as to make is seem real time. The UAD
and TCs don't even offer this and actually quite the opposite. In native
systems you can't run the latencies to their lowest settings when using
these plug ins.
I have a feeling that the reason the does not do 88.2k is because of
hardware limitations. It may be that the clocks they use on their cards
which are fairly old right now may not have had the ability to support
the 88.2k clock. People as fair as I've seen didn't really start trying
to use 88.2k till the past 2/3 years but 96k has been around a couple
more years so has been more commonly available on digital clocks.

That's a myth. Sample rate converters upsample to a common rate and then
downsample to the choosen one while also filtering.Yes, as long as the slots don't share IRQs.
