>(859) 635-5762Tourist and locals line up outside an ABC store waiting to buy
essentials on Sunday.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15288785/
hmmmm, isn't ABC Stores a Liquor store ?
hmmmSorry to hear of your woes, TCB. That's really rough, man life sucks. ;^)
What will be worse is if you actually like the fruity computer when you
set it up and start seeing the advantages to having your own fruity unix
box to run open source and media apps. Yep, this has happened to a lot
of Linux geeks, just ask around on /. Oh the humanity!
Anyway, yes, for discounts on Macs here are a few options: keep an eye
out for sales at CompUSA; grab a rebate through Amazon (linked from
macrumors.com); buy a refurb from the online Apple store; register as a
Mac developer and buy through the developer program; order from one of
the Mac catalogs and get a discount in the form of add-on memory and
other perks; or if your friends are students they can get educational
pricing.
Or just wait a few months and buy the previous model at a discount when
the new model comes out in any category. Or buy a recent used one, G5 or
faster if for serious media production, Intel if laptop.
But I agree with Ab, even if you buy a new one at street price Macs are
a reasonable value well worth considering these days. They range from
less than a grand to around 3 grand; in form factor from laptop to tiny
box to monitor/computer combo to roomy tower; and all current models and
many recent models have plenty of horsepower to handle (for example)
heavy audio production use, in a reasonably elegant environment.
As far as breaking goes, the weak point on PowerBooks used to be the
hinge joints. They changed the design from dual hinges to a wider,
middle hinge which seems much more solid in current and more recent
models. But for any laptop from any manufacturer I always tell people
it's worth it to get a good padded case and use it.
Good luck, enjoy!
Cheers,

>Dear DJ,
The four creamware cards cannot work all on same system so one luna must
be put on separate system or sold.
I don't know if he is a trusted guy.
I hope ebay will cover you in case.
I would prefer three pulsar II cards but this system sounds also great.
Yes I do not use any SX.
I use cubase 5 !!! for midi recording only !
Pulsar is used for sampler synths and EFFECTS processing like outboard hardware.
Glad you decided to try Creamware !
That means you are still with Paris right ?

This is Pulsar oriented only and compatible with creamware cards so why worry...
ABOUT the stability.
Pulsar never crashed on me once !
That is 4 years now.
Do I have to say more ?

:)Hi,
The stability of the company was an issue over a year ago.
The company survived cause somebody put money on it.
They have updated twice from then their products and keep producing new things.
For intanse Klangbox , awesome new hardware standalone synths for a retail
priice of 499 $ !!!!
Minimoog Prophet B3 Proodyssey all these for 500 $ each.
Just simple 19" 1u rack no controls except for midi and outs.
Creamware is surviving and staying alive.
Anyway there is 3rd party support.
Even if they would drop it now their system rocks already and third party
plus free one and good ones are coming out every day !!
I cannot even try them all.
So why worry.
grab a pulsar card while you can.
Keep your Paris and intergrate them.
Regards,
Dimitrios

>OK,
First of all, my wife has the best ears in the family. I "always" get her
blessing on mixes because I know I can trust her ears. It's literally like
having an mastering engineer in the studio. Her ears are incredibly
good/sensitive and she's always right. Amy hasn't ventured up to the studio
all weekend while I've been in my mad scientist mode and has been waiting
for me to get my head around getting a mix together for her to listen to in
SX.
So I get something happening that I think sounds good and call her up to
give it a listen. I like it personally and I'm rocking out with my Steinberg
Houston controller, fader automation....all the cool bells and whistles.
System is running perfectly, etc. etc. I'm even thinking that I can use this
one for a while to see if I'll even need a more powerful rig it's soooo
stable. I'm feeling like I've finally found something I can live with
here.........soooooo.........she comes in to the control room and I start
playing back this 30+ track project.
Amy doesn't know squat about the finer points of recording/processing, etc.
she just knows what she likes and doesn't give a flip about what it takes to
achieve it............so she's sitting there through the first half of the
song and I can see a little frown start. She looks at me and says "is that
midi?........what's going on with this????.........it sounds like it's midi
or something ......... sort of artificial...... and the whole thing sounds
harsh to me. Sorry honey but that's not gonna' work. I liked the old
system......what's wrong with it? Why are we changing?"
Now this is coming from someone who would "love" to see me simplify things
around here as you guys can well imagine.
OK.........so I guess I'll try the Pulsar
thing............^%$&*&^%$%^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
;oPIt's not a drum kit without a cowbell! I don't pussy foot around either. An
LP Rock Ridge "classic" cowbell is located directly over the left side of my
hi hat.

I'm going to plug away at this over the next few months. I realize that I
don't have much in the way of chops when it comes to getting the most out of
this system so I'm not giving up on it, but the Pulsar sounds like a nice
option to have and I'm going to carefully reassemble my Paris system over
the course of this week, paying careful attention to some details as far as
cabling/clocking are concerned. We're getting ready to start tracking a
bunch of Amy's songs for her CD and if Amy wants to use Paris, that's what's
gonna' happen.

It was free on the EMU site, don't know if it's still available online somewhere.
3.0 was the paid version.

There's no shortage of opinions on /. :^)
Buying a Mac is pretty simple, and running one is easier than most other
systems these days. Fire it up and go. Shouldn't take more than a minute
of your time. Heck, you probably wouldn't even need to be in the (fruit)
loop on this one unless the user is a complete neophyte and needs basic
handholding to start out.

>Obviously no reason to disturb domestic tranquility, but my point wasn't that
you should use any particular plugs or stuff when you're really mixing. Maybe
you should use none across the 2 bus, maybe you should use four graduated
compressors and a limiter (I've done that, believe it or not). My point was
to learn something about how you mix using PARIS. When I used it I did a
lot of things that are kinda not right for most digital systems. We've argued
a billion lines of posts about why and how that's possible inside PARIS.
What I'm talking about is behavorial not sonic, find out how much you've
been using the specialized clipping in PARIS as an 'effect' which is what
I think it is. When I switched from PARIS I did this stuff until I settled
in on a way to work the stuff well for me, my type(s) of music, and my software.
Turns out I was using PARIS clipping _lots_ for almost everything.
All of this I say because if anything a multi-EDS card system should have
MORE sonic anamolies that a civilian would call 'harsh' because of the delays
between EDS cards.
And I'm not slagging PARIS. I'd LOVE to have a PARIS rig to record the rock
band I play in. But SX/Nuendo/Performer/Logic and to a slightly lesser extent
Live can sound fantastic when worked well.

When I insert an external effect, I get flamming. that *never* happened when
I was routing tracks from Cubase to Paris with the external effect inserted
in a Cubase track. Very strange.
Plus there's a bunch of other wierd stuff happening.
In this project, I've got a bunch of busses
1. drums
2. vocals
3. guitars
4. piano and other keyboards
5. strings.
6. external FX
Then I've created a Main mix bus.
I route the outputs of all of the respective tracks to their respecitve bus,
then I route the respective bus output to the main bus.
I also apply an effect to a track and then route that effect to the main bus
so that the parallel routing is received there. These external FX are app
patched digitally.
When I apply a reverb to the kick drum panned center, I'm getting a strange
shift in the imaging and it sounds like it is paned to the left.
I've got a ways to go here obviously and like I said, I'm not giving up on
it. There's just an unexpected learning curve. I have a feeling that part of
what is going on has to do with that %^&%$#%^%$# Totalmix app. I can't
possibly express how much I hate that right now. It's like a layer of pure
shit between where I start and where I want to go.

>>Ouch, that sounds rough. Totalmix is one of those 'shazam' apps. It will cause
all kinds of totally unexpected crap to happen all the time and then, in
one single moment just when you're really thinking of kicking the cat in
the ribs because the computer cost too much, order will be restored to the
universe and it will all make complete sense. Then you'll start making totalmix
_presets_ which probably means you need to be in an audio 12 step group,
but we know you need that anyway.
One suggestion, make a totalmix preset where everytyhing is OFF completely
and build from there.
One more suggestion, don't put reverb on the kick ;-)
