Hi All,

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful holiday season with those they love.

As for my PARIS efforts, I started working on something new to deal with the PACE issue. Edmund sent me a PACE free version of PARIS about a year ago (or, he asked me to check if it was PACE free - I think it is), but it required a newer version of a file called AbLibWin.dll, and I didn't have the newer version. That newer build of PARIS.exe was the last thing I received from him.

I started digging into the AbLibWin.dll that came with PARIS 3.0 to see how it was different that the version expected with the new PARIS.exe. The newer one had 4 new functions added. I've managed to spoof AbLibWin.dll to stub in the 4 functions that are missing, but I haven't been able to get the PARIS.exe I was sent to load. It looks like the parsing of the PARIS config file was added, and I've been working on re-creating the missing functions. I haven't made it work yet, despite trying a an old copy of Code Warrior running in a virtual machine to see if that would get it to work. I'm going to keep at it.

I'm also very excited to get the ASIO driver out ASAP.

Have a great holidays everyone!

All the best,

Mike

Thanks so much for all your hard work! I'm still using a Mac G4 with the 2.0 version of Paris. I would love to move to the 3.0 version and try a PC out. I jear and see great things. Still So impressed with my setup. Been running it since 1998. Most other recording setups that old, except Radar maybe, cant compare. Thanks for keeping us moving onward and upward

I'm speechless. Edmund came through! "Four new functions". Could this be the much anticipated Paris V3.1??
Merry Christmas, Mike and everyone on this forum!

Hi Kim,

He sort of came through. He did send an updated PARIS 3.0, but it won't load without an updated AbLibWin.dll, which he hasn't provided.

The four functions aren't four new features for PARIS, but four small bits of functionality that were added to abLibWin.dll. One of them is for opening a text file. It's called to open Paris.cfg, but whatever I pass pack to the application isn't right because the app crashes. This could be a compiler compatibility issue. I have Code Warrior 5. Maybe they used version 3 or 6 or something else all together. Or, I may have implemented it wrong. I'm making guesses and hoping to get lucky. I don't have the specification for how it is supposed to work, just the names of the functions and a debugger.

I suspect, and it is just a guess, that the PC version of Ablib was never updated. My guess is that this new build of PARIS was tested on OS 9, but the PC version was never finished and this is why Edmund didn't send a new ablib to me; it doesn't yet exist. But, that is just a guess.

All the best,

Mike

Will the new ASIO driver allow my Samplitude ProX talk directly to Paris eliminating the need for another audio card? I've had to replace my mother board and am now running Win7-32 (hoping to get an unlock code from ID). I used an old Prodif Plus card to get digital audio in and out of Paris/Samplitude under WinXP. I cannot get that card to work under Win7 and would rather not spend the money for a new card (perhaps a RME.)

I hope everyone had a great holiday. I have a question. I saw somewhere in the forum that licenses for 3.0 were ending. I this true? I have windows 7 32bit running 3.0 on one machine but I need to get another up and running for editing. Also I have been thinking of adding a Magma. Does anyone know the model I should look for and the host card as there are many for sale on ebay but very little info. Thanks again Mike for all your endeavors and Kerry for your support! May the new year bring prosper to all.

I sent in for an unlock code today. I'll post here if I get/don't get one. If I don't get one, does anyone have a Pace free copy of 3? Then I could move up to Win7 64 bit.
