>>Sorry Dave, I haven't been well most of the year and I'm not thinking

I haven't even tried to sync Paris adat to my Nuendo system via
Hammerfall9652. I don't have the energy to do two things at once anymore
so I have to wait untill this project is done before I can mess around
with that, which I don't think will be all that tough now that I'm
getting more familliar with Nuendo settings.
So, the problem is, the adat card is installed, the Nuendo (sync slave)
comp is turned off - not needed. I'm attempting to record 2 tracks but
there's no audio getting past the mec. If I yank the adat the audio
reappears. I don't yet have any plans to use the lightpipe on it.

I just attempted your suggestion but nothing showed up in the main
patchbay to connect to/from.

>>>OK, what has happened is that the adat card has replaced your 8 in
card in the first configuration slot. You need to press "B" to open
up the patchbay. Next, drag the "MEC Modules A" object from the list
at the top right into the patchbay window. Next double click on the
object "MEC Modules A". This will open the configuration window. You
will see two rows of I/O blocks... I am assuming the top two will say
something like EDS-ADI-01. Drag these into the column at the right.
Then drag the A8it module back into the top left slot. Unfortunately,
Paris defaults to the aday module all the time, so you will have to
open this window every so often to reconfigure.

I can't speak highly enough of it.
I assume the 1820 is all that and more, plus higher sample rate, (I think).

Thanks Rod, you're right about "the error exists between the chair and
the keyboard"....lol

I'm not too well and haven't much enery some days, yet much to do, so I
sometimes get frazzled and forget things.
Actually, I'm a THE manual reader guy in my circle...but I haven't
brought them back into the studio yet after the reno....outa sight outa
mind I guess....lol

I also think you're correct about Nuendo being a good choice. I use it
now for midi and such but I think it's time I made it work a bit harder,
which I've deigned from doing with the current, mid-grade, comp.
The new comps arrived this week and they should make life with audio a
bit smoother - a pair of quad xeon 2.8's we 4g of ram, scsi 360 host
drives and a fiber channel array.

My comp guru wants to run Paris under Win2003 server. That'll probably
work, huh?

signal between the two systems. I have heard that the EMU card does not
output standard ADAT sync and is somewhat unreliable for clocking due to
this. I heard this on the RME user's forum though, so it could be FUD.
However, if you desire to sync the timelines of the two systems so that the
system running the EMU card will slave to the Paris transport, you will need
to use either MTC or SMPTE between the two DAWs because the EMU card doesn
no have the capability to attach a 9 pin serial cable from the Paris ADAT
sync output.

I'm running paris a stock Gateway E4100. Info is as follows:
P4 3.0Ghz
512 MB PC3200 RAM
Windows XP
Magma 7 slot
3 EDS cards in the magma. 1 IDE card and a hard drive as well.


It's been pretty much trouble free since I put it into service 6 months
ago.

I'll keep you guys up to date, but at this stage I'm thinking I might be

Dear David the only motherboards close to your I can find on internet is

This has 6 PCI's as opposed to your having 5 pci's.
Are these motherboards the same ?

can anyone say anything about the AD/DA conversion?

jeremyProgrammable analog distortion/warmth - helpful in the pristine but
unforgiving digital world. Three audio modes providing user
programmable, warm harmonic distortion. Emphasized tube-like, 2nd
harmonic in clean and Distort 2 mode. In Distort 3 mode, the
distortion becomes dominated by 3rd harmonic, more similar to tape.

Distortion indicator lights - A 1% LED and a "Redline" (3%) LED. No
hard clipping until a few dB past "Redline".

Advanced built-in sidechain EQ - High mid band emphasis prevents
harsh, edgy guitars or vocals from hurting innocent ears. Low cut
keeps the low "sum & difference" frequencies from pumping the upper
frequencies of source material.

Fool proof operation - Even though there are 384 possible settings
(not counting knob settings), it's almost impossible to get a bad
sound. Keep all knobs on 5 or 6 (around middle) with ratio at 6:1 and
you won't go wrong.

Eight unique curves - From the 1:1 mode that simply warms up signal
with low order harmonics without intentional compression, to the
"Nuke" setting - a brick wall limiting curve that shines on live drum
room mics. Each curve has its own personality, and release shape. Most
exceptional is the 10:1 "Opto" ratio which uses separate circuitry to
emulate the oldest (and valued) "light controlled" devices, such as
the LA2A etc. See manual to emulate other compressors of old.

Also, make sure you do ****NOT**** use a crossover cable........I

make sure that whatever you do, ****NOT**** use a crossover cable. Using a

I don't really know if LE has PDC, HD does. You can get 16 i/os in LE with
the Follwoing Products:

-Digi 002(Rack)or not
-M-Audio Project Mix I/O
-FireWire 1814

All of the above units have a additional Adat ports. That way you can add
8 channels of I/O of your choice.

It moves the faders relative to the fader you have with the greatest value.
The other faders will move the same relative amount.

I experimented on one song and I put in a -3.0. Once I hit return,

For your faders to have moved up by 3db means that your maximum value fader
must have been at -6db (unless you have fader grouping set up, make sure it
is off).

So that function in Paris

Sorry, I guess I misunderstood. For "physical" locking you can use fader
grouping function. In, mixer select Settings and Show Groupings. A new
section will pop up below the EQs where you can select the channels to group
together. Then select Relative. Do this for each channel of interest. Now
the group will all move "physically" together. (The normalize mix function
doesn't seem to be predictable when used with grouping ?)

thought there was a feature in

Hey John,
In the Automation Editor select track/tracks to be gain changed.
Hit 'Control e' and a dialog will ask for a gain raise-lower amount.
It can be typed in in decimals + or -. If you want 1.7 db higher
type 1.7. If you want 2.5 lower type -2.5. All selected automated
levels will change. Fairly simple compared to magnifying the screen.
Rod prefers Control Drag which I am not accustomed to but will try
it tonight to learn a new trick.

>>So I got the two cards hooked up (I don't necessarily need 32 channels, but
want extra FX resources) and I want to load FX up on the global inserts
(card A) and record on card B (with various compressors, FX, etc. and lots
of resource room.) I understand the global FX are assigned to card A, but
then I can't record to card B (sumbix 2 where my per channel compression
is.) If I assign the submix to different cards, it doesn't matter because
now submix two is card A and there are no resources left for the global
inserts. Of course, now submix one has all kinds of resources, but I can't
record to it. Is this a Catch-22? Am I just an idiot? (ok, don't answer
that!)

Do you have to be happy with the resources on the card you are recording
with (both mixer and global inserts) as there is no sharing of resources?

Thanks

KentIt's not just a control surface...it's also got (unnecessary for me)
preamps. I've been considering moving on from my Houston controller to
something a bit more functional, but I don't need the preamps. For $1200.00,
this looks like a lot more in the way of a controller...

Attack=1.5ms Release=150ms. Knee behaviour MUST be operated by the EQ
(max 2 Bands) forcing the compressor to behave in "vintage" mode.You
just have to figure out the ratio and the frequencies in the EQ.

The compressors behaviour WILL get it's character form the Eq curves.You need 1 mec per submix, otherwise you have to swap them around for
recording. Also use Virtual submixes if you need to playback more
submixes than you have EDS cards.


Throw that MEC around. This is a REALLY QUICK way to throw your MEC and
Patchbay from submix to submix. With practice you can do it in less
than 10 seconds. Need 16 more tracks? Throw that MEC around.

How to move your MEC from submix to submix for a 2 card system.
------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
In this example, the MEC is tied to EDS card 1 and is assigned to submix
1 with EDS card 2 assigned to submix 2.

Open Master Mixer.
Assign submix 1 card A to virtual ***. This disconnects EDS card 1 from
submix 1
Assign submix 2 card B to card A. This assigns the MEC and EDS card 1
to submix 2.
Assign submix 1 to card B.

This allows 1 to be fully functional and tied to EDS card 2. Make sure
to turn CARD back on from Virtual.

To revert to the default setup.
Assign submix 1 card B to virtual ***. This disconnects EDS card 2 from
submix 1
Assign submix 2 card A to card B. This assigns the MEC and EDS card 2
to submix 2.
Assign submix 1 to card A.

This puts submix 1 back on card A. Make sure to turn CARD back on from
Virtual.

Can I hook my old 442 to the second card?

Things to keep you from crashing.


In STOP mode

DON'T
* select a new Native Effect if the current one is open
* enter record mode without first setting your record path (Ctrl-R)
* use the name of the project for your recording path
* save with looping enabled

During Playback or Recording

DON'T
* change inserts (native or eds)
* move loop or punch points
* enable or disable loop or punch

Rendering

DON'T
* render tracks with different lengths

NoLimit

DON'T
* use 0 or 50 valuesI don't know that answer. Hopefully the guru's will chime in. I don't
see a copy in the Master Mixer window either.

Thank you very much.

that codec/format' thing too many times, and MP3 is not going anywhere
anytime soon. If I want the better res version I put the real thing in the
CD/DVD player. I'm pretty much on the go these days though, and I don't need
hassles.
YMMV

TonyDon't "undo record" while Paris is in the middle of creating overviews
for 32 audio tracks 1.5 hours long.... BOOM! ;-)

He just had to face the truth like the rest of us. PARIS is a "dead" system.
It doesn't mean we still can't make good use of it. I think the majority of

somehow
