Here is a tidbit from BT back in 2004...... let the magic be new all over
again :)
-------------------------------------------------
I currently have 8 EDS cards, 4 MECs, 4 C16s, 7 Analog Input cards, 4
Analog output cards and 7 ADAT cards running under XP. At one point
during testing, I hooked up 6 loaded MECs and dropped 96 tracks in
simultaneous Record. I would bet 96 tracks in Record is a record for a
DAW (no pun intended).
I wish I could tell you why it seems to like me so well, but I don't
know. Other than making sure you are patched correctly in the Paris
patchbay and making sure the correct Input card is selected in the 2nd
MEC's "MEC Modules" block, I would expect it to be a Word Clock issue.
You are using WC, right? Besides the "UseHouseSync=1" line, you MUST
create a "Default Project" in your Paris Pro folder, and the "Default
Project" MUST be set to Word Clock sync and it MUST be set to a 48K
sample rate. Even if you have your Word Clock generator set to 44.1K and
are going to work at 44.1K, the Paris Default Project MUST be set to 48K
in the Project Window when Paris boots up. After bootup, you can change
it to read 44.1K with no problems. This one nearly killed me and Chris
Thoman till we caught it.
Do this. Patch some Paris audio on your 2nd EDS card (B) to play out of
MEC 2. As in, in the Paris patchbay, patch Mixer 2 stereo outs to the
MEC 2 headphone outputs, for instance. Make sure the stereo meters on
Mixer 2 are showing audio. If you hear audio, the MEC and WC is fine,
and you have a Patchbay issue, some bad hardware, or some peculiarity of
Paris on XP that is unknown.
But my bet is that you will not hear audio play back out of MEC 2. If
that's the case, then you have a Word Clock issue that is either in the
Paris.cfg file, or the Default Project. As soon as you hear audio
playback, your inputs will work. Patience, Spockish logic and staying
methodical is your best bet.
