I've used a lot of different platforms. Atari, Commodore, HP's UNIX,
MSDOS, Apple II, Mac, Amiga, AtariST, MSWindows, NeXT, Linux, BeOS, OSX.
I still have a Wi95/98/Linux/BeOS box lying around, several Amigas and
Psion.
I did some Mac audio/multi-media coverage for MacWEEK/MacUSER during
pre-OSX days and for a time I ran MacOS on an Amiga using an emulator
package and a Mac EPROM.
I've also worked with a variety of companies developing software and
hardware for some of those different platforms.
I'm writing this on Thunderbird, an open source email program, running
on OSX.
I'm not a dyed-in-the-wool Mac user. I seek to use and help foster good
tools and I value having choices in that pursuit. I can only speak for
myself, but let me shake out the cobwebs, Lamont, and see if I can
answer your question to some extent and add a little to what James
already said.
So, off the top of my head:
Before OSX, MacOS sucked. No preemptive multitasking. No dynamic memory
allocation. Stuck with compatibility to the stone age of personal
computers (early 80s). But at least the stone age for Apple was more
advanced than the stone age for Microsoft. Apple had already jettisoned
the Apple II, been inspired by Xerox and moved on with the Lisa,
stumbled with that and then moved on to the MacIntosh. That willingness
to move past older designs gave them a technology lead, although the
early Mac was quickly eclipsed in some ways by the Commodore Amiga.
Hardware wise, Macs were overpriced IMO.
Microsoft sucked worse, for the most part, because they couldn't let go
of their entanglement with really old IBM decisions, more like Apple II
than Mac. They struggled to transition to a graphic user interface,
struggled to add decent color support, struggled with multimedia and all
while desperately trying to stay compatible all the way back to MSDOS.
The cost was a culture of bloat, inelegance, copycat design and rushed
bugginess that became the hallmark of Microsoft products.
However, Microsoft managed to beat Apple to preemptive multitasking and
dynamic memory allocation. Apple stagnated with failed development of
OS9 replacement technology, had to transition to the PowerPC processor
family, and all that gave Microsoft an opening to kludge their way past
MacOS, albeit in a very wobbly way, with Wi95 - just add more bailing
wire and ignore the blue screen of death.
Oh BTW, along the way Microsoft pushed out their partner IBM who ended
up with OS2, which began to dry on the vine. IBM is another big story
but I'll condense it into saying that they screwed things up by
standardizing on crappy hardware designs from the start; failing to see
the market potential for personal computers; choosing Microsoft as an OS
partner; and acting like a clueless monolithic typewriter company (not
unlike Commodore except bigger and thus with a carelessly larger market
impact). IBM also got into monopoly trouble which was another part of
Microsoft's huge opportunity to suck on a bigger time level than before.
BTW, what did Microsoft know about operating systems? Very little but
Microsoft bought some technology, nailed down the legalese, presented it
as their own tech, got the deal with the naive IBM, and that's a
an insight into Microsoft's business practices from then on.
The truest innovation from Microsoft, other than anti-competitive
behavior, was relentless marketing. They offered arguably the best
choice in unreliable, kludgy systems, for a time. And Microsoft did a
great job convincing people to buy into the notion that this is just the
way it is, and gee, we need those wobbly peecee things in our businesses
and homes. Microsoft was able to make people think that computers were
unreliable and kludgy and that's just normal.
It's not normal. It's a sign of software bloat caused by rapid
development of features on poor foundations without allowing time for
proper design and debugging.
Not content to compete on merits, Microsoft also sucked with flat out
illegal business practices, some of which they were finally tried and
convicted of, but they were saved from any real consequences for their
criminal activities by a change in government.
Fairly disgusted with both Apple and Microsoft on several levels,
including inability to innovate and inability to transcend OS problems
from the past, plus unethical business practices that were not
particularly great for consumers, I worked on a NeXT computer for a
while and always kept an Amiga workhorse or two around. Later I also put
BeOS on my old Wi98 box, wow, much better!
After spinning their wheels for years, Apple finally decided to buy
their way out of their predicament. Choosing between BeOS and NeXTSTEP,
they chose to buy out NeXT and gain a more modern operating system
foundation and hook back up with co-founder Steve, who had started NeXT
after being more or less kicked out of Apple.
I do disagree with the Apple decision to pull the rug out from under Mac
clone makers. I don't know everything behind it, or whether Apple's
future was really on the line, but I favor competition in general.
Anyway, when Apple built on NeXTSTEP to create a new MacOS, MacOSX, I
became interested. Logic was the first sequencer to support OSX.
OSX threw out most of the OS9 baggage. It started from a higher place
and built from there. Today it's quite solid. I do question a few
things, such as the imposing of extensions in file names, OS9 was better
on that point. But OSX is better on every other point, way, way better.
And OSX is arguably more elegant than the current incarnation of
MSWindows. Mac hardware prices have also come down significantly and now
it's all Intel FWIW.
As an aside, I think Apple went with file name extensions because of a
desire to be more compatible with MSWindows in (stupid, ancient) file
naming conventions. Meta data be damned.
BTW it really, really sucked what happened to BeOS. Both Apple and
Microsoft had a hand in that, but especially Microsoft who forbade
computer makers to offer BeOS as an option (yes, that's illegal).
Microsoft ended up paying a paltry few million in a lawsuit but it was
after BeOS had already been driven out of business, technology assets
sold to Palm.
Sordid business, this. Eventually open source will replace it all, probably.
Cheers,
-Jamie

Get a IDE OS drive don't waste your SATA ports on the OS. Using an IDE
drive will also work better for many back up progrmas also.

320 gig SATA11 16meg cache . The 16 meg cache and the SATAII will give

chrisl@adkproaudio.comThanks for the great input Chris!!!!!
None of your suggestions are available options on the site I was on...(www.pcsforeveryone.com)....it
is a configuration deal similar to the way your site is set up.
I hadn't thought about the case though...I will definitely need one large
enough.
I would love to go with one of your systems, actually - I had already checked
them out before you had posted here. I'm on the fence as to how much money
I can justify for this purchase.....

---=_linux45230cf2--Thanks for the response James. Very Informative..I tto was around during those
earliy days of personal computing.
Although, I really liked OS9. :)
I think Aplle should not have stoped the Cloning. Man, people were finally
getting pysced about gettign a Mac..Then boommm..
Oh well..
Man, like I posted , I use both, and one XP is a speed demon even with a
modest to a cheap componet system. That alone, speaks volume.

My antique and much loved Athlon 800, 98 SE Paris box, is maybe
getting a little o-l-d...
For instance: system clock has lost its mind... Thinks it's still
September something, and whatever the hell time... If I set it to
present day-and-time it will be half a week off again by this time
next week... Can't be good, right? Also, the thing just sort of
doesn't boot up at all about one time out of ten... Like, nothing...

(859) 635-5762I agree with LaMont -- that "sandy" vibe is easy on the eyes, and the
rest of the colors -- the turquoise numbers alone would have done it
for me...
-- like a 60's postcard from some Arizona motel -- everything's in
there but the palm trees... Yeah, SSC was a lot of different things
maybe, but he was an Artist, that's for sure...

>Hey Lamont,
Thanks. I'm a big fan of having choices, so I'm glad you still enjoy
your system and find it speedy and useful for the way that _you_ work
right now. I'm sure it won't matter to you in the least if there are
things about your system that I might not like. What difference would
that make to you? No difference at all.
I'm also glad I have the option to use a system that feels more elegant
and efficient overall, to me, for the way that _I_ work right now. If
it's not your cup of tea, that's OK, it wouldn't change how it works for me.
Obviously we both have our own reasons for selecting our various tools.
Some of mine are below.
Our reasons are valid even if they differ, because we each decide for
ourselves what matters when selecting tools, based on how we want to
live and work.
What's important in the end is the quality of the music we produce.
BTW I'm encouraged that open source has become very viable for needed
office tasks (I dig Open Office, Thunderbird, etc.) and has potential
for maturing on the media production side.
So, to each their own, within the narrowed range of choices still
available. But keep an eye on that narrowed range and be careful what
you wish for. It's a better marketplace if there still remains at least
some semblance of competition and choice.
Cheers,
-Jamie

>Thought some of you that use Cubase or Nuendo with Paris or on its' own
might be interested in this if you haven't upgraded yet, etc. I took the
Nuendo users' offer to get it for $199 (separate license/dongle) to run on a
VST System link slave PC, though I'm enjoying the new features enough it has
superceded Nuendo 3.2 temporarily on my main system.
C4 adds drag and drop inserts (to and from any channel, or the library).
Very handy, and a much needed addition. There is an extensive
library/preset capability to C4 to greatly speed up saving and loading
presets for plugins, channels, VSTi's, mixers, etc.
One of the biggest new and unsung features is the Media Bay (and Sound
Frame, and Loop browser) which accesses all media on your system, catalogs
it by type and allows you to search, filter, drag and drop relevant files
into your project - there is of course a preview for audio files, in
addition to the ability to preview in context (e.g. project plays back,
audio file plays in time, time stretched to match the project tempo - cool
for loops that are cut to measure boundaries, not as useful for free form
vocal tracks, etc). Sound Frame and the Loop browser are just versions of
Media Bay with filters for audio and loops enabled, respectively. Not
overly different, but perhaps saves a step over turning on filters in Media
Bay.
The sequencer engine has been rewritten from what I understand. C4 feels
more tightly integrated than Nuendo 3.2. It runs really well (not without
some bugs still, of course).
C4 adds VST3.0 support, and new built in VST3 plugins. The new plugins with
are actually very good - new EQs, compressors, expander, gate, chorus,
delays, etc. They will operate in mono, stereo or multichannel depending on
the channel format they are inserted on (the delays and chorus are not
multichannel unfortunately). Btw, a 5.1 instance of the multiband comp eats
up a lot of cpu power. The new VSTi's are also very good - Halion One is a
rompler based on the Motif to some degree - no editing, but has quite a few
useful presets. The other VSTi's are quite nice and creative and stand up
well along side the Raptures and Absynths of the soft synth world (albeit
not as versatile as either of these).
C4 adds the Control Room that is already in Nuendo 3.2 - a great feature for
mixerless setups, esp. with key commands for switching between speaker
configs (multichannel, stereo, mono, etc), 4 different monitor outputs, dim,
talkback, monitor source selects, studio configs for headphone mixes, etc.
Instrument tracks are a quick way to add a VSTi with a track directly in the
project window (doesn't use the VSTi rack). The only downside is only a
single stereo out is used. The VSTi rack still supports full multi-output
VSTi's, but adds a dropdown list on a button next to each insert to select
which outputs are enabled - easing the clutter of VSTi outputs in the mixer.
That's enough for now. fwiw...
DedricThis mic kicks ass... and no, it sounds nothing like the kit
version that preceded it.
'nuff said, try one - seriously.

Flat panels and Ghz for me !

Guys I need some help.
I need to know how one would go about sending a stereo spdif RCA into =
PARIS
and then routing the LEFT of that signal straight back out SPDIF RCA.
Then send from a channel to the RIGHT Spdif RCA out.
The channel is a microhone that needs to be monitored live and not heard =
thru
the speakers.
I am trying to do a transfer analysis in smaartlive.
Also, at what db level is reverberation / reflections in the mixing room =
considered not
destructive? -60db??
Is that how you calculate reverberation time.....how long it takes for =
the reflections to
drop below -60db???
--=20
Thanks,
Brandon

All,
I know I have heard that inserting Eqs before your monitors to=20
counteract room modes/coloration is a technique many=20
shy away from. I know the best way to treat this is by speaker placement
and sound absorption. However, when would be an exceptable time to do =
this?
What are the pros and cons?
The purpose I would be doing it is to bring the rooms freq response =
flatter.

if I want 4 I have to pony up full price. Not sure if that's worth it to
me, esp. since Live has become the primary app I use and SX is started up
only in specialized situations. Also, I'd be breaking compatibility with
my fellow bandmates who are all on 2 or 3. We'll see though, it does sound
like a bigger upgrade than they've done in a bit. As far as I could tell
the only difference between 2 adn 3 was the box.

Could someone point me in the right direction
DonI am assumming I will need to reathorize Paris 3.0 when I get my new machine.
Do I just contact ID when the time comes?Don't forget to buy 1GB of ram while you're at it. The new batteries require

Never, ever use a graphic or even an analog parametric on
nearfield/midfield studio monitors. Fix the room, fix the
mounting system, lose the big wooden console, etc etc, but
analog EQ's sound awful compared to fixing the problems and
running your monitors without them.
Unless of course, some bonehead studio owner is waving lots of
money in your face and won't accept any other solution...

NO, sadly I am an ex Parisite. I got to the point where I needed to either
migrate Paris to XP or jump ship. With the (lack of) support issues and
the increasing incompatability with certain plugs and apps, I was seduced
by the dark side. M-audio Project Mix I/O and M-powered Pro Tools. We'll
see how that goes :)

s. When I rip the songs in WL, they show up as sequentially
numbered songs, no names. That's OK. I flythem into a Montage, name them
there then burn them to a CD. the song names again become sequentially
numbeed songs. The client wants the songs to how up by name. HTF do I do
this?
Thanks,
Deejrun the setup app to install the scherzo drivers, reboot, then install Paris,
reboot, then the effects subsystem, then reboot.

I didnt even think about the nulls not benefiting.
Yes if I use the 80hz roll off on the hr824s the problem goes away ofcourse
since the problem is at 47hz.
I have a 12db peak at 47hz and a null at 108hz only on the left speaker.

Also, I hear that they dropped direct-X support? If that is true, then have
have at least eliminitaed some of their summing issues, but it really is
too bad..
The Control Room is musch more intuitive than Nuendo's version..This (Control
Room) is some good stuff.

Before you guys start getting too exicted about this, it appears that there
is one more hoop to jump through if you are using multiple MECs. When
looping audio from Paris *through* Cubase SX channels while Cubase SX is
slaved to Paris ADAT sync, Cubase crashes once audio is being looped from
two different MECs. This is likely due to the latency between EDS cards
causing a trainwreck with the clocking.
This will not be an issue to those who are not wanting to have plugin
automation in SX. As long as SX is not slaving to the Paris timeline, the
audio passes through the audio interface on Cubase and back to Paris with no
problem. If, however, you want to automate plugin parameters, you will need
both machines timeline synced so that you can write automation data to
Cubase SX.
I am hoping to solve this problem by sending Paris ADAT sync to a JL Cooper
Datasync II unit which converts ADAT timecode to MTC and then slaving Cubase
SX to incoming MTC form the Datasync II.
Thank goodness for yet another kludge. I thought I had finally succeeded in
accomplishing everything I started out to do and there was this sudden
realization that my life would have no further purpose.
;o)Further repeated testing has verified that when Paris ADAT sync output is
hooked directly up to the RME audio interface ADAT sync input, if ASIO
positioning protocall is selected as the Cubase sync sounce, even if the RME
transport is set to internal so that the Cubase transport is not chasing the
Paris timeline, Cubase will crash within 5 seconds of the beginning of an
audio track from Submix 2/card B/MEC 2 starting to play.
Setting sync source in Cubase SX to MTC (with no midi interface selected) so
that there is no interfacing between the Paris ADAT module and Cubase SX
works fine......no crashes of cubase SX when processing tracks from multiple
submixes in Paris.
Thanks for you input on this Dave. Hopefully the Datasync II will do the
trick.

Anyway, has anyone taken the time to try Vista RC1 with Paris?
I searched around this newsgroup and can't really find anyone commenting or
stating they tried. But my outlook data is limited and only goes back a few
months... I am positive I am going to upgrade to Vista when it's
released... at least on my notebooks... cause I really hate XP! Sure would
be nice to get Paris working on a secure OS... anyone?Hmmm......this just may not be possible to achieve. I've got both systems
clocked to the Lucid....No ADAT sync is interfaced with the RME cards. The
jury is still out on whether or not this is going to fly. The latency
between EDS cards and the audio being streamed from ADAT modules that are
clocked to those cards may be an insurmountable issue here.

The Vista OS completely changes the manner in which applications run on the
operating system (in a protected space), breaking at least half of the apps
that are out there today. The printing and scanning subsystems are totally
new and most of the bi-directional communications that are available in these
types of devices completely breaks Vista.
However, PARIS 4.0 should run on Vista just fine! ;-)
I suggest not even attempting as it will be a total waste of time. Stick
with XP (or Mac OS 9.2) for PARIS. Disconnect the machine from the Internet
and strip out all of the unnecessary Windows tasks.
MHO,

I'm starting to think it may be time for you to make the jump to a Dualcore
intel box and
2 UAD PCI-e cards running Cubase 4. I know you have invested alot of time
and
brain power into this,lord knows I'm exhausted just reading it. I think you
would be
better using PARIS as a summing buss. At least thats what I'm coming to believe.
I'm going to use my old B&W G3 for my PARIS system and build a Dualcore Intel
box and run Cubase 4 and be done with it.

cards/submixes seems to be the culprit. I have also tried it without any
external hardware boxes being attached to the RME cards in the SX DAW. Makes
no difference. Oh well, I can live with the scenario I was using before but
it doesn't sound quite as good as what I am trying to do with using SX
solely as an FX processor.

Go here:
http://www.dogstar.dantimax.dk/testwavs/DX is indeed gone. Not a big deal to me as Autotune is the only DX plugin I
used, and I'll probably use Elastic audio in Sequoia for tuning vocals -
sounds much better. Some users aren't so happy about it though.
I haven't mixed over 50 tracks yet - just got it Monday.
The control room is actually identical to Nuendo's (3.2) - just new to C4.
I agree - it is quite nice - a huge plus for monitor management, esp. with
5.1 and stereo monitor configs.
The score editor is also improved - biggest positive for me is the palettes
are now in the left column as dropdown panels rather than floating - much
easier to use now that I don't have to arrange them in my template projects
and work around them.

>Well.........I'm baffled by this and I'm just going to let it slide for a
while. Looping audio *through* SX so that it functions as a standalone FX
processor has been a total bust so far. OTOH, streaming tracks directly from
SX (lots of them) to Paris and summing there does not create the clocking
trainwreck that looping through the inserts does. I guess it must be the
loop that is causing it as opposed to the one way trip.

Yes, in a way, but not in the negative connotations

connotations.
OK, well, then that would be negative, too lol

Anyway, hopefully people should find their way here for PARIS support. Hey
theres only like 300 of us anyway.
Sometimes a song just kills me. Garth Brooks - The Dance for example.
Here's the latest:

When Kelly Clarkson is at her best - like on the studio version
of "Sunce U Been Gone", she fuckin' rocks solid and is one of
the best female singers out there... but otherwise (like in
this video) she come across as just another chubby chick with a
microphone.

Cool. I haven't really checked out much of her work. I thought she had a
couple badass songs I've been exposed to. I seriously loved her duet with
RF. Definitely chubby but I thought her timing on the beat was killer.I wonder if this isn't working because some of the UAD-1 plugins (like the
Neve EQ for instance) are upsampling what is essentially a Paris audio file
being played *through* SX with none of the downsampling possible that would
normally be part of the DSP process in SX to resolve the sample rate of the
plugin to the project sample rate/clock source. If so, that would certainly
explain some things. It might also explain why the UAD-1 card with ADAT I/O
that was on the boards a few years ago went nowhere and why the POCO,
Duende, etc. do not have digital I/O and only work in a plugin format. If
these processors were
upsampling/downsampling in real time, the SR converters/clocking shenanigans
that would be necessary to bring the audio signal back to the project sample
rate would put the pricepoint through the roof.
Well.....it's just a thought........

better - more stable - no jumping cpu spikes. I had C4 at 90% while playing
around the other day (multiband comp on a 5.1 buss eats up the cpu fast),
and it didn't flinch.

>I did some dates with Will D in South Africa (Johannesburg & Durban). It was
an amazing trip and though we were there to work, I was able to take in a
few sites....the home of Nelson Mandela in Soweto, The Apartheid Museum and
an animal reserve.
The flight was 17 hours, and going there went without incident, but coming
home proved quite disturbing. About 40 minutes into the flight leaving Johannesburg,
I noticed a young man (in a group of about 5) looking around quite nervously,
then proceed to use his cell phone. The plane was sparsely filled, so no
else noticed it. I was about to get a flight attendant, but one happened
upon him and asked him to put the phone away. He did so, but it left an uneasy
feeling none the less.
Once we landed in Dakar (about 8 hours later) the gentlemen de-boarded the
plane and the carrier (or TSA..not sure who) did a massive search of the
plane. They asked us to remove our luggage from the overheads and to move
from our seats. They brought on about 20 workers who checked under the seat
cushions as well as the headrest. Once they reached the area where the gentleman
with the phone was seated, I watched as they pulled a dinner knife from deep
within the headrest. In all, they found 3 dinner knives hidden in the seat
cushions. I am not certain who hid the knives, but that point is mute to
me.
After the search was over, the flight attendant went down the aisle saying
there was a passenger missing who did not de-board the plane in Dakar as
planned. Needless to say, I did not sleep those 17 hours coming home. Upon
my return, I spoke with one of my colleagues who had left the day before
I did and although he did not notice that there were any items found during
the search, he did share that there was a passenger missing at Dakar as well.
Boarding the plane (returning to the US) was the tightest boarding procedure
I have ever witnessed. After having our luggage screened at the security
check point, we had our personal items scanned again at the gate...then were
patted down...then tickets checked again...then given a boarding pass and
finally returning the boarding pass at the door of the plane....yet there
were still discrepancies with passengers being missing landing in Dakar.
Not sure what else to say.I assume you don't know then? I have been testing the last Beta and the RC1
on a separate PC... M$ has made a remarkable come back from Beta to RC1.
My question is... has anyone tested Paris with it? I am in a downtime soon
and I may do just that. Waste my time, hmmm. There are some apps that
don't work in Vista... but there are many that now do work in Vista RC1
because a few slow ones at M$ apparently didn't catch up till RC1.
Lastly... I don't use XP and never will use that virii infested piece of
shit OS... with so many holes and too many phone homes for me.... I'll
stick with 2000 until something better comes along.

The answer is yes. I assume you have a router for your home network? Just
disable those computers in the router.

to make paris go black and blue?
Just wishing. Maybe black/blue will do latency comp automatically. hehe
