Dell has expressed interest. That actually surprises me because of all the
bad things he has said in the past about Steve Jobs and Apple, including

That's a fact. With 3 x MECs, it's always the MEC on card #2 that ends =
up locking to the external clock last. the most reliable way to get my =
Frankenstein monster config working is to turn on my outboard modules =
that are interfacing digitally with Parism then turn on the external =
clock, then turn on the MECs, then boot the computer, then boot Paris, =
let it sit for about 30 - 45 seconds until everything stabilizes, then =
boot up my Cubase SX DAW. Any deviation from this will usually cause a =
digital train wreck of the whole cotton pickin' thing.

EMU didn't even know. I was pissed. But now I'm happy.
You should be too.

Moving the Mec around isn't that big of a deal really. I don't think =
it
will screw anything major up. No ADAT cards in there right?

Well, like I said, the system works as is (MECs on A and B)
with the older 2.2 software, and has been running like that
for a couple of years - all inputs and outputs producing
sound without problems. So, I know my clock is good, the
cards are good, the MECs and interfaces are good. I just
brought up V2.2 to double check, and recorded using the
interfaces that don't work with 3.0, so it's definatley
a 3.0 issue.

When you had to have your MECs on A and C (or E), was that
with Version 2.2 and 3.0, or just with 3.0? I could try moving
the MEC to C and see if that fixes it, but I dread making any
changes at all to a functional (under 2.2) PARIS system......

That's the only thing I use the spdif bounce thing for. All other plugs get
rendered the native way, if needed. I don't do too much of that these days.
No need.
Unless I'm using several Waves Master's plugs. That's another story. Can
you say HOG? they sound good though.

>First of all, the ASUS A8V-Deluxe is kinda quirky(at least mine is) when
using an older Matrox G450 PCI graphics card along with a G450 AGP card. If
you intend to try this....DO NOT load the VIA AGP driver that comes with the
mobo. It's OK to load the rest of the drivers. If you load this AGP driver
under these circumstances (ie..using the Matrox cards) you might as well do
a clean install and start over. Removing the VIA AGP driver using the
uninstall feature doesn't clear up the problem and your life will be a
living hell until you surrender and restore your original clean install that
you Ghosted........you did remember to Ghost,,,,,,didn't you? ;o)

Secondly,. if you're using removable caddies and you remove the system
drive, you will get a system drive error (as invalid system drive/coronary
arrest) when you reinsert it into the caddy unless you remove the other
drives from their caddies first, insert the system drive solo, then reboot
on the single system drive, then shut down, reinsert all of the other drives
and then reboot.

Also, with as many PCI cards as I've got, (3 x RME's and 4 x UAD-1's in a
Magma) the IRQ less than equal BSOD can rear it's ugly head. The trick is to
turn off the Magma (or pull the PCI cards from the mobo slots), reboot until
you get the system happy again, then shut down, reinstall the Magma host
card (or the PCI cards in the mobo) and reboot. The 4 x UAD cards are the
issue in mine. It takes a while to get all of their addresses sorted out it
seems. Eventually everything stabilized.

Lastly and most annoying for me was getting the Houston controller to work
with Cubase SX. I finally figured it out. Cubase SX has to be loaded before
the system ever sees the Houston driver. It won't do to uninstall/reinstall
the driver if the Houston driver is loaded before SX is loaded. My
experience was that SX will *never* see that driver and the controller will
not work unless SX is loaded before the controller driver. Took me a whole
day to figure this one out.What? So that's it then? You're finished? Just like that? All solved? Done?
Complete? Operational? Finito?

So what am I supposed to do tonight for entertainment then? Just sit here?
I wonder is there's anything on TV.

Well, I could bitch for hours about how hard a time I'm having trying to
get my Ensoniq MR Rack script to translate to Cubase SX. It's friggin' wierd
how they implemented this.

people that just has to be constantly screwing around with something just to
find out wat it will do that it's not meant to do. I guess I'm sort of
perverted.

;o)

I guess I should have known they'd have all that kind of stuff. Just never
really thought about it. I'm surprised they would be able to mess something
like that up. Not that Im familiar with the MR rack, but I would have thought
that it wouldn't be that hard to get something like that right. I guess they
take a few shortcuts for some of the older more abstract gear like that.

If it makes you feel any better it doesn't look like we're going to win the
cricket. ;o) It's been a good match until today. I hate it when there's a
draw. It seems such a waste. It's one of the oddities of cricket that two
teams can have uneven scores and yet fail to actually produce a result. It
sucks when it happens, but the fact that it can does add an extra element
to the game.

Good luck with your rack. :o)

Cheers,
Kim.
