1 card with MEC works great (98SE). Decided to complicate my life and add
another card and introduce my ol' 442 in the mix. What I want to do is use
card A for global effects (no limit, etc) and record to card B. Otherwords,
put the MEC on Card A and the 442 on card B (with inputs and outputs.) Or
the other way around (MEC on card A, 442 on B.)
I now have the MEC on card A (master), 442 on B, BNC out from MEC to in on
442. When it initializes, everything is cool, but I'm vapor locked on how
to record to the 442. In the patchbay, the MEC sucks up all the inputs and
the 442 will not patch across EDS cards.
How do I get the 442 inputs/outputs active so I can record? And don't
laugh, I know this is probably simple for the Paris intelligentsia.
Thanks,
Kent

You cannot patch across EDS cards without physically routing analog
connections between them. Do you have the ribbon cables connected between
the two EDS cards?

Yeah. EDS cards are connected. With the two cards, I can swap back and
forth and use the MEC on both submixes. But I want to be able to record to
card B, keeping card A open for heavy global inserts (since I run out of
resources using a couple compressors and no limit on the global insert.)

errrr............you can also route digital connections between EDS cards,
but you can't cross patch in the Paris virtual patchbay...........yeah, this
sux, I know.

Kent,
You can always switch the card assignment in the master output window during
mixing. Just make Card A's submix a virtual mix temporarily. Switch Card B
to Card A. Then Switch Card A's virtual mix to Card B. Basically, just
assign your open submix to card A when you're ready to mix.

That's what I was doing, but everytime I switch submixes, I lose my global
inserts. Not that big of deal, I guess, pretty easy to throw them back in.
I was just hoping I could add my 442, then record on either the MEC or 442.
Guess not. Welcome to ParisWorld.
Thanks Tony,
Kent

Does the 442 interface show up in the patch bay? I'm not sure since I only
use one interface. However, if it does, shouldn't you be able to pull down
the 442 interface and patch to mixer B?

The 442 shows up, but a mixer B is a no show. I only have mixer A. "I WANT
MY MIXER B! (I Want My MTV?)" Uh, sorry, is Miixer B supposed to show up?

Yes, the physical connection to cards A & B can't be changed in the
software. What I would do is connect your 442 to card A and monitor from
that either analog or spdif out. Connect your MEC to card B and record to
that. That way card A and the 442 is always open for the global EDS inserts.
I have a three card system and change the card assignments around all the
time. I just wait until I'm ready to mix before adding the global inserts to
the submix with the most open resources.

Little confused how to monitor from the 442. In the patchbay, if I set the
442 as A, I have no connections to either the 442 or the MEC (default saved
with MEC as A.) Can I make the monitor connections for the 442 and the
input connections for the MEC in the patch bay? If not, how do I make the
connections? Thanks.

Also, if you want to use the 442 to have more inputs available during
record, just go ahead and record to submix A, then delete the tracks from
the playing field, then add them back in submix B from the audio tab.

Kent,
You should be able to drag the 442 to the patch window in the patchbay. I'm
not in front of my PARIS rig, so I can't walk you through this right now.
Mostly cause my brain is too small to remember the steps! If no one else
helps you out, I'll try to get back to you tonight.

I'll be back at the Paris rig in a few, so I'll try those. If it doesn't
work, I'll send you a message later. Thanks for the help.

I can drag the 442 to the patchbay, but I can't hook it up to anything.

Ok, I'm assuming you still have the 442 attached to card B on your computer.
Right? Go into the patchbay, grab mixer B and drag it to the patch area. Now
you can route the 442's inputs to whatever channels on Mixer-B you want.
Don't worry about the Mixer-B left and right outputs as they are
automatically routed to the card A masters.
Now, If I were you, I'd switch my MEC and 442 SCSI cables. That would put
the 442 on card A. Now Mixer-A in the patchbay will connect to the 442.
Route the Mixer-A outputs to whatever outputs you want on the 442. Route
the inputs from your MEC to Mixer-B. Now you can record using the MEC inputs
to whatever submix you have assigned to card B and also record from the 442
to the submix assigned to card A. So for example, in my case I have a MEC
with an eight input card and a 442. So from the Mec I can record 12 inputs,
plus from the 442 I can record 4 inputs (this isn't counting the spdif
in's). So now I have 16 tracks recorded, 12 on one submix, and 4 on another
for a total of 16. Now I go into the submix 1 editor window and remove the
four tracks from the playing field. Then go into submix 2 and drag those
same four tracks out of the Audio Bin to the playing field. So I've used all
the analog inputs to record 16 tracks simulataneously, then moved 4 so
they'd all be in one submix. Submix 2 which is assigned to card B. Now card
A which is assigned to submix 1 is open for global inserts. You can also use
submix 1 for any tracks you won't need EDS FX on and you won't take up any
DSP from card A.
I'm not great at explaining stuff, so I hope this helps at least a bit. The
best thing would be for you to read the patchbay section of the PARIS
manual. The concept is a little hard to understand until you mess around a
bit in there. If you're like me, a light bulb will pop on after a while and
everything will be clear. Let me know if you need more help and I'll give
you my phone number. If we were both sitting in front of PARIS, I could have
you running in two minutes.

Great explanation, thanks. The lightbulbs are slowly coming on. I've got
everything hooked up in the patchbay, but now I'm trying to figure out how
to monitor. Could you email me your number (off the newsgroup if you want)
so I can drop you a quick line? Much appreciated.
