The info on the user's forum looks pretty grim, but user's forums are
sometimes more about troubles than success stories. After reading a bit
more, I determined that setting the KORE driver latency
(yikes........another ****'in driver to configure) to a minimum and
inserting the KORE as a VST plugin in the first insert or send slot in a
Cubase SX 3x project seems to be working for some folks. There's a whole
'nuther can of worms involved with this critter as far as producing clicks
and pops too and I just spent 6 months sussing this issue with 4 x UAD-1's
and 3 x RME cards by resorting to using 2 x Magma chassis' in one DAW. If
this thing starts overloading my PCI bus, it's gonna get shitcanned PDQ and
I will once again be reduced to mousing

NI, unfortunately, has a tendency to release really buggy first versions of
things. I remember the first Spektral Delay, which turned a 'run a nuclear
power plant' audio box into a completely unusable crash monkey. However,
they usually do get things together later on, so keep an eye on it and you
might have a winner in the future.

Well heck, Thad......there's a great review of it in Future Music this
month, so everything must work perfectly on every imaginable
platform.......right?

Well, it came yesterday. I opened it up and there is an eitire minimanual
fust for the installation. It doesn't really look that hard to do but, after
reading the manual and determining that, for my needs, it's parttly overkill
and partly not ready for prime time, I decided to try reloading the driver
for my Houston controller to see if I could get it's functionality up to
speed for controlling VST plugins and now it seems to be doing as it should
so I'm really contemplating whether or not to even screw around with this
thing and all of the hoops Native Instruments requires the user to jump
through just to register it so that it can function. Basically, for my
purposes, it's just a VST plugin wrapper that would allow control of plugin
parameters once those parameters are mapped to the controller. Since my
Houston controller is working properly now, I'm thinking "what's the point?"
I'm really too busy to jack around with this kind of unnecessary redundancy.

I'm sorta' at the point right now with my native DAW that I reached with my
Paris DAW a couple of years ago.........finding the sweet spot so that it
does everything I need, at least withiun the contest of using Paris for
tracking and both DAWs for mixing. The logical next step will be a move to
64 bit and all that goes with it. At this point I may start looking at the
monster Intel Macs or quad socket dual core AMD machines. I just have this
feeling tat when 64 bit comes along, these mosterr boxes are going to be
able to compete with Paris as far as "near zero" latency goes and that 64
bit will enable developers to come up with more realistic sounding mix bus
coding, sort of like the 56 point Paris mix bus. It looks like WWIII is
about to begin so I'm not goping to speculate too much on what's going to
happen in the next 12 months, but if the world is still somewhat
recognizable, "possibly" systems like this may be justifiable/affordable.
The Apogee interfaces for the Mac look like a very nice situation for a
powerful turnkey DAW.
Cheers,
DJ
