Hi guys,
I'm hoping that someone out there can help me trouble-shoot a problem that
I'm having with my Control 16, namely that it stopped working after I upgraded
and moved my Paris set-up. I've tested two different C-16 units and both
of them just sit with static random light patterns while Paris is running
and are otherwise unresponsive. This is leading me to think that maybe I
have a problem with my EDS card or possibly a software glitch? Has anyone
else ever had this type of problem? What do you think my best options are?
Or what other things can I do to try to troubleshoot?

In another issue, I've just recently set up my Paris system fully connected
to my 24-channel mixer. I'm interested in using my 8-out cards to route
16 channels out to the board to mix out of the Paris box (so to speak), but
I'm having trouble figuring out how to route this properly in the Paris patch-bay.
Maybe there's something that I'm missing as a beginner to this sort of thing.
If anyone has any feedback on either of these issues, your help is much
appreciated.

Thanks!
David

You ARE using a standard CAT5 cable and NOT a crossover cable for the
C16's... right?

Double click on the MEC modules block in the patchbay window. The next
window contains the I/O module assignment (P34 in the owners manual).
Drag the appropriate modules into the locations required, and then patch
away.

David.

Hi David,

If your upgrade was to a dual or quad core CPU, you'll need to either lock
the PARIS app and driver to a single CPU or buy my new driver that was re-written
for multiple CPU computers.

It's available at ensoniq.ca

All the best,

Mike

Thanks for the tip, Mike. I'm still using a single-core CPU though.

Thanks for the tips. I'm pretty sure I'm using a standard CAT5 cable for
my C16. I guess I'll check that again with a third cable.
