Hi everyone,
I just released the long awaited PARIS ASIO driver!
http://ensoniq.ca/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=27&prod ucts_id=46&osCsid=0cf0ceb611f24cf92459ec51f4187939
I've attached the manual to this post.
I can't believe that I thought an ASIO driver would be easy. I ended up creating a new voice engine, modifying the micro code that runs on the EDS cards, learning how to dynamically create MIDI ports, how to use the Win32 API to create dialogs, OSC, the Mackie HUI and Control protocols, and a whole lot about ASIO and the PARIS hardware itself. It's been fun.
The driver allows the use of MEC expansion cards, supports word clock, supports multiple cards, buffer sizes as low as 64 samples, and using the C16 as a controller.
Happy Canada Day!
Mike

I haven't tested ProTools 9, but I tested extensively with Pro Tools 10.
The patch bay is replaced by some drop down menus and check boxes, but the new dialog does basically the same thing.
I put a lot of time coding virtual Mackie Control drivers so that the C16 would work as a control surface with Pro Tools.
The only thing I couldn't work around is that Pro Tools needs to be restarted when changes are made in the patch bay. Pro Tools couldn't cope with changing I/O options while running.
I've attached the manual if you want to take a closer look at how things work.
I hope this helps!
Mike
