Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone has compared the DP/Pro Hall PARIS plugin to other
hardware reverbs. I'm seriously considering selling my Lexion MPX-1 because
I just don't see myself using it anymore.

I've just been mixing a live acoustic show, and the DP/Pro hall has just
changed everything. I used to try to compress and eq my way into the sound
I'm getting out of the hall. If anything, it's causing me to do less in
my mixes, and they sound better for it.

I just thought I'd check in to make sure I'm not just letting my enthusiasm
for the software lead to me to sell the Lexicon if I'd later wish I hadn't.

All the best,

Mike

Do what I do with 'outdated' studio gear. Put it in your live rig :)

Hi Gantt,

I spent about half the day today working on the Mac plugs. I have a friend
who works for Ubuntu who is in Turkey right now. When he gets back, I'm
going to ask him if he will help me with this. I'm completely stuck. I
solved so many compile errors - hundreds and hundreds, but there is one I
just have no idea about. I'm down to 117 errors or so.

I'm sorry that this has taken so long. I've learned a lot, which is great,
but it says a class isn't defined when it clearly is, and that has happened
before and I've fixed it - bit this one won't fix. :(

All the best,

Mike

Mike - Please don't think that I (and I suspect I speak for all of us Mac
owners!) am anything less than incredibly and totally grateful that you're
putting all this work into this project. It takes what it takes...

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I've got a reverb tip.

Use the stereo crossover after the reverb returns to kill blow 150 Hz or
so. This will help the mix translate to crappy boom boxes with bass boost
on.

Cheers!

Mike
