people talk about how they don't break as much as other brands. Let me
know if you continue to have that problem. It may have been an anomaly.

>Yeah, I hate the way some movie makers take a great artist's life and
concentrate on all the sad degraded bits, leaving out the brilliance and
great moments. Did you see the one on Edith Piaf? That was disgusting. I
couldn't watch the whole thing. But they ate it up at the Oscars.
The great artist's brilliance does not come from their mental
aberrations. It is only hindered by any mental problems or a degraded
lifestyle they may fall into.
Hopefully, a Freddie Mercury movie won't just be about how gay he was -
not that there's anything wrong with that!

Isn't it odd how much it boils down to "different strokes for different
folks? I bought Elixir bass strings for a Fender Jazz Bass for a session
a few years back. They were comparatively expensive, but the idea that
they tended not to degrade quickly over time was highly appealing for
consistency of tone over multiple tracks in session work.
I'm a moderate-intesity fingerstyle player with over twenty-five years
of freelancing behind me - neither a Gary Willis ultralight touch or a
hard-driving slammer; the bass was in good shape with no fret anomalies
I could feel, and I installed them with care.
So imagine my surprise when during the second cut of the session they
started shedding their wrappings onto the fingerboard. Not one but
*three* of the strings started doing the "snake peeling off its skin"
thing between the seventh and fifteenth frets. By the end of the first
day the coating was effectively worn off, - and unfortunately, unevenly
enough that I had to replace the set.
If one string had shed, I might have written it off to a bad string, but
shedding over multiple strings was too much for me. I suppose I might
have got a bad set, but I wrote it off as a failed experiment that I had
little incentive to repeat.
Go figure.
- KerryOn the Cleartone website they show a picture comparing Cleartones to
"other" coated strings, showing the peeling on the other. They claim
their one micron finish won't peel. My electric gtr strings are
certainly intact after a month.

This the page where you put all your plugins names and known latencies =
so
every time you put a plugin on your audio track you just push the om =

and all other Paris audio tracks get alligned !!
What else could we ask from a third party plugin developer ??
He first made a PDC for us when I kindly asked him so and then he =

For all thos that have not bought Faderworks please do so to show our =

>Greetings all!
Technology sure changes fast. A piece of technology became available to me a
while back that finally allowed me to build what I used to just dream about.
Namely - there is now a PARISWiki where PARIS aficionados can compile all
existing data concerning PARIS. I've started the ball rolling by beginning
the process of converting and compiling the varied and valuable information
found amongst the various official and unofficial FAQs.
You might want to read the rest of the email before you click, but the site
is linked at the bottom if you're not a "manuals" type.
For those unfamiliar with the term - a "Wiki" is a collaborative,
community-driven encyclopedia. You don't complain to someone when you spot
something wrong or incomplete or missing - you *fix it yourself*. To do this
is trivially easy - once you're registered and logged in, double-click
directly on the page you're reading and an editor opens. You can begin
entering/editing text right there. If you want to create a new page, you
just type a "CamelCase" word as you're editing (any word with an initial cap
and another capital within it, like AppMessage) and when you "store" the
page the cunning macros behind the Wiki turn it into a hyperlink with dashes
under it. Click on this and a new page with that name is created and saved
(before you do that, you might want to look at the page index to make sure
you aren't creating a duplicate). Yeah - you read that right - essentially
creating a hyperlink to a non-existing page, and then clicking on it,
actually creates the page.
Now some important info.
This site is *free*. By *free*, I mean - I am donating the time to build and
maintain it; donating the bandwidth and server space to serve it; there are
no "gotchas", no "enter your credit card", no "donate" buttuns and no ads; I
will never sell, trade, share or knowingly make your email addresses
available to others. In short, this is a "labour of love". Unless the
bandwidth goes absolutely insane, I can't see ever needing to "pass the hat"
for donations; if that ever happened (I doubt it, I have up to three
terabytes of bandwidth on the account it's served on) I'd talk it through
with the community before doing that in case someone in the community simply
wanted to serve it elsewhere. Failing those sort of unforeseen and unlikely
circumstances, I am happy to continue serving this for at least the next
eighteen months. If things go well, I have no problem keeping it going for
as long after that as I can foresee (ask me if you want to mirror it
elsewhere - assuming you don't want to mirror it on some white supremacist
hate site I'll almost certainly say yes, but let's make it a real mirror and
not a copy so multiple sites don't develop different content).
What I *would* ask for in return, however is participation. If I wanted my
own Private PARIS Manual, I could have done it on my own hard drive easily
without the hassle of maintaining it on a site. This Wiki is meant to be a
community service - and it is also intended to be nearly entirely
community-driven. As long as the community continues to participate, not
merely by reading but by *contributing information*, I'll continue to do my
part by running the back office. I hope that seems fair.
Aside from that, the conditions of use are largely common sense (I think
everyone's smart enough not to kill it instantly by posting illegal or
offensive material; arguments stay offsite; let's keep it focused; etc) and
are printed on the front page. Registration is automatic (ie open to any
PARIS user, past or present, no matter how casual a user) and takes all of
about thirty seconds.
A further note on registration - it's open for all. The technology exists to
take it private, to require admin approval for who registers, etc etc; it
can be made very secure. However I'd like to start by assuming "if I need to
secure it, I'll secure it, but until then, welcome one and all!". So
registration is automatic, nobody "approves it".
Plans for this Wiki are fairly ambitious, but I'd hope realistic and
sustainable. For example - amongst other developments, Aaron Allen and Chuck
Duffy have graciously given their consent for the Wiki to serve the Brian
Tankersley video, which (pending confirmation from BT), I'd like to see
broken into chapters and inserted in the relevant topics. I'd do this
pretty much ASAP pending hearing back from BT (anyone got a current contact
email, shoot it to me privately).
In addition, it's "skinnable" so the plain vanilla interface will go away at
some point (when I get time) and be replaced by a slicker custom "look". I
