Hi, Rich,

Don't know if I'm the "small studio" owner you're referring to (formerly
of Saratoga Springs, now moved up to Gansevoort), but I'm still here, too.
Not much opportunity using PARIS during the past couple of years (no audio
work at all, actually, between lots of life stressors), but I'm hopefully
gonna be working on recording again this year. (Mac running 2.1 with 2 cards/C-16s,
etc.).

It's a little late to be responding to your post, but count me in, guys...

I too did not reply to this post, and I know of one other (ongoing) Paris
user here in Las Vegas that does not frequent this group (I tech for him so
he relies on me).......now that's a scary thing!


Also 2 other past clients of mine that used to use Paris as recent as 2
years ago that I know of. I will give them a call and see if they are still
on board. (Chuck-V, and Juniel......both Hip Hop guys).



You guys are the best......even with the occasional argument (or spat as it
may seem)


I will use Paris until the day I die.......or until someone comes up with
something that sounds as good.

I recently partnered with another guy to start an online type studio service
(that is the reason why to completely integrate Logic and PT's with the
light-pipe options), and I introduced him to Paris, and he is absolutely
blown away, and when I told him it is 10 year old technology (with the
exception of the ongoing development), he is truly left speechless, and
can't understand how something like this could have been
abandoned........oops, I didn't mean to start a rant.....sorry......don't
reply to that comment.

At any rate, we plan to use Paris along with some outboard analog gear to
enhance and remix and master already recorded stuff, whether originally
recorded in PT, Logic, Cubase or Sonar (amongst some other services)


I haven't found any one who can argue that Paris just sounds deeper and
fuller than anything on the market (even today). I have taken complete ly
polished and good mixes in Logic, and sent them out the ADAT stems into
Paris, and without even giving them a touch of compression (which even makes
it sound better IMO), it sound bigger fatter and louder than any plug-in
combination you can put on the mix buss.....and Logic is one of the best
sounding mix engines out their.....again IMO.


Thanks for all the help.......off to try some more stuff (a good nights rest
always gives you a better outlook on the issues at hand.....don't you
think??..... :-)

Thanks both of you - you're in the Big (and growing) Database now and
I'll be very interested to hear whatever other names you turn up. PARIS
was fairly prominent in the rap/hiphop scene here through Dubvibe's
work with artists like Sweatshop Union, there's something about the
platform that makes it a good mesh.

Hi Kerry,

I'm still using PARIS. I mostly record my own stuff and a few friends.
I don't do anything commercial as far as recording. I'm hoping to sell the
music some day. I just finished another song for the album that is going
to take a decade to complete. I probably should name it that.

Anyway, PARIS still works for me. I have no desire to learn a new tool.
I have a four card system, three C16s, and an MEC with an 8-in and an 8-out.
I have spare cards and an MEC. I run 2.2 on XP.

Put me on your list if my useage counts.

Welcome aboard - sure does count, Rich. You just made it a nice even
140. Next target - 150.

Sounds like a nice-sized rig. Never got tempted into going to 3.0, huh?

I'm quite tempted to go the 3.0 actually. I would have gladly paid the $150
for it when it came out. As I've mentioned here before however I won't do
PACE. I got a copy of UNPACE and when I have time I'll try it.

I'm not as into working on my PARIS rig as I should be. Given a free moment
I'll always grab a guitar before I'll put time into PARIS. I had the Tankersley
video for years before I finally watched it. I'm lazy.

I had Chuck's effects pluggins for years too and just installed them because
I needed a flanger on a song that I was recording. I think I'm going to
buy some of the plugs that Mike is writing. Sounds like people are liking
the reverbs.

I don't think I've been counted, but I've had a Paris System for several years
now. I have two EDS-1000s, MEC, C-16, two 8-Ins, one IF-2, and Paris 3.0.

Hi all.
A quick post to stay in the count.
There are also three other local studios besides mine in town still running
PARIS as well.
I still run a PARIS 8 card/13slot magma rig with 6 MECs and 8 c16's coupled
with the old faithful Cubase rig linked thru ADAT sync and four Adat i/o
cards and lots of analog i/o cards but have also migrated to a PT HD3 system
on a smoking Mac Pro
dual quad core system.
I've hung on for about as long as I could.
I'm afraid the PARIS rig's lights are going to go cold and dim.
"Long Live P.A.R.I.S."
Thanks for keeping hope alive!

I think you got me in, but in case you don't, I use Paris exclusively with
my G4 450 and it is still "kickin." Here is my little basement studio.
The second picture down is how it actually looks now. That old CRT monitor
died a while back. Lou

You bet I got you, Lou, but thanks for checking. You've got me thinking
about a "PARIS RIg Pix" page at the blog.
