First of all I would like to thank everyone here for the help I have gotten here and all the other sites wiki etc. I am fairly new to this program as I have always been an analog guy but I must say the recordings I have gotten with Paris are exceptional far beyond the thin sound of protools. I recently went from windows 98 to dual core xp and bought the drivers but my problem is when I try to load adat to the adat card the window in paris has no effect on the operaton of the adat machine. When I use the c16 I get it to spot to the "go to" on the adat position but when I hit play and record paris starts to record but the adat goes back to "0". My config in the MEC is {2x 8in} {1 8out} {2x adat cards} and {1 more 8 in card}. I see that some people have said that the position of the adat card should be last in the MEC sequence, but on the treepad it says the adat card should be first. I didn't have any problems loading adat into one card in windows 98 but now I can't get any reaction. If anyone can shed a light in my tunnel of confusion I would deeply appreciate it. By the way I set up patchbays and everything the same way I did in windows 98. Thanks Ron

Heya Ron - I don't have a solution myself, just thought I'd give your question a bump in case anyone else has any ideas.

If I am reading your post correctly you say you have a total of 3 8in's in the MEC? Not sure if that would cause any issues or not since 16 inputs is the max for a MEC maybe that has something to do with it....worth a try to pull one out if that is the case.

I moved all the modules yesterday to 3x "ins" 1x "out" and 2x "adat" in the mec and got the adats to sync but am still having problems with the adats returning to "0" when putting the c16 in record. Also now the second adat is not sounding in the 9-16 and I get a window saying there is no 2nd machine. I will try removing the 3rd "in" and see if that relieves the problem. Thanks for the help....Ron

What are you using to generate your sync with the ADAT machine?

I am using the EDS-ADI-01 expansion module. Like I said everything was good to go in Windows 98 but with XP I seem to be getting a miscommunication of some sort....Thanks Ron

If you're using (as I'd guess) the 9-pin ADAT sync cable to sync them, are you getting the same results regardless of which ADAT card the cable is plugged into?

Fortunately, the ADAT.dll and the underlying drivers are stuff Mike has the source code for - meaning if there are issues I'd bet he can find them and fix them. To be clear, are you using the old ADAT.dll or the new one that Mike revised?

I am using the new drivers from Mike and I have tried using the other card and it is still the same scenario. I have put in a request to Mike for answers but he is a busy man. I hooked everything up according to the ADAT manual for Paris. Thanks Ron

Last night I took the third "in" out of the MEC and loaded the modules 2x"in" 1x"out" and 2x "ADAT" to no avail. Same problem. Mike got with my tech and sent me a "debug view" that I will be loading tonight. He is also getting with my tech and are going to get to the root of this problem. I will keep you updated....Ron

Huge ups to Mike for his hard work - and although I don't want to steal Mike's thunder, I know more cool stuff is under way.

Mad props to Kris as well for stepping up to the plate on Senderella too! Exciting times.

Update!!
Mike has written new code for the XP ADAT problem that I was having and sent me a new driver that solved the problem. I am now able to load everything from ADAT and am really grateful for his time and expertise keeping this format alive as it should be. I have the driver but will wait for his decision to release it. You can probably ask him for it.....Ron
