>Logic Pro here. Like Dedric I switched for features and work flow. I
also switched for OSX.

PARIS never achieved promised MIDI functionality, what little was added
never worked accurately for me. Very disappointing in that regard.

PARIS never made the jump to OSX, and neither of the supported OS
choices thrilled me.

But I like PARIS as an audio DAW, for the most part. It worked well for
mixing my first CD and a good bit of tracking for my second CD (and even
some tracking for my upcoming third CD). I hear plenty of excellent
stuff produced with PARIS, including your project which is on my list to
order.

These days Logic on a dual processor box, such as my 2.5GHZ G5, is
fairly miraculous in capabilities. Not perfect of course, and for years
it was burdened by some ridiculous bugs. But recent updates have brought
it to the point where I can recommend it - to the point where it's
largely a joy to use. Clients really like what I'm creating with it.

The included FX plugins are good to great. The included soft synths
include some real gems that augment my 3rd party soft synth collection
nicely. There is a learning curve, but update improvements have made the
learning curve less daunting than when I started with it.

ou can hear mp3 demos of some stuff I mixed with
Logic (much of which was also tracked in PARIS) on my CD page:
http://www.JamieKrutz.com/jcds.html - click some of the song names
listed for "Toward An Attitude." (If you happen to like what you hear
the CD is available for purchase. :^)

Cheers,

had in Paris.

So now I'm using Metric Halo 2882 +DSP and the converters are really nice!
I can control the Metric Halo MIO intrface trims and faders with the Mackie
Control board. I intend to try some mixing inside the MH +DSP. It has an
onboard 80-bit multibus mixer for near-zero latency mixing and routing. I
want to compare the summing bus inside Logic vs inside the MH2882. I am also
intrested in comparing the MIOstrip (comp, gate, eq) inside the 2882+DSP
with the ChannelStrip AU plugin inside Logic. Both sound excellent in my
initial experience.

Having flying faders with the Mackie Universal Control, XP and C4 is wonderful.
I can assign control to nearly any on-screen parameter to the Mackie stuff.
Most everything that can be done with a mouse can be done much more efficiently
with the Mackie Control. Paging through fader banks no matter how high the
track count is fast and easy. Also I like saving custom screensets that can
be instantly called up by punching a single button n the Mackie is sweet.

I also should add that I'm completely in love with the built in convolution
"Space Designer" reverb in Logic. It comes with hundreds of fantastic IRs
and presets out of the box, plus you can add your own. I've put it on Bus
1 of every project.

All things considered, switching from Paris is a very tough decision for
anyone. Good luck.

>I've been checking it out a bit! Seems like it could be cool
because the guy behind it seems to be really into it and puts
out updates seems like every time I check. So it would seem
that whatever it's lacking now will be fixed or added....uh...
soon (remember that one), but this guy seems to mean it.

I guess it's very like Vegas in style and look and is designed
to be very straight forward and simple (which, if true, is great,
because me like straight forward and simple!!!!!!!)

It's got a 64-bit engine (whatever that means), and ADC, midi, etc. I haven't
really used it yet though.

The best part.......it's FREE! I guess that will change when
they get to offical 1.0 or something, but I think it will
still be very cheap, especially compared to the others.
