Mic Cross could likely answer this question. I haven't seen him here in a
while. Gene Lennon might also have some info on this.

I'm in the process of building a big paris rig again, and am probably going to go
ME so I can use multiple adat cards per mec streaming audio in from my G5
running Abelton 5, and Logic 7. The plan is to do all programming in Live
or Logic, and record and mix the audio in Paris.

I may be bugging you a few times once I get this going..

Cheers,

TC

How can you switch ?
I always see that mix a which is attached to 442 (A) has the monitor outputs
no matter where I switch the default submix to !
I am sure I miss something obvious here ,can you help some more ?

>My # is 970-375-7081. Feel free to call. There's a lot to this and it can
get expensive if you are trying to pin the tail on the donkey. Been there,
done that. No point in cutting corners. It won't work reliably, but it
doesn't have to break the bank either if you get the right stuff from the
*git go*

doesn't allow you to operate using Card B as the master output? I could have
sworn I have done this before. Maybe I'm getting senile or something. I'll
have to check when I get the time. I'm on my way out the door right now.

Nappy,

I remember being a college kid and having to rent small houses
and apartments. The landlord can throw your butt out at any
time for any reason. One of them got tossed out of his in-laws
house for beating his wife and ordered me out on one day notice! I
had just moved in 3 days earlier. I said only with a complete refund
of every nickel. He refused, and told me he would sue me for
damaging the house (which I did not do) if I did not get out that
night. I did not, and ended up defending myself in court (lost)
and on appeal (settled for a few hundred). Fun huh?

Why am I telling you this? Because an experience like that will
make a flaming Bolshevik out of anyone. An experien

ce like
what you are describing will result in the way you feel. It's only
reasonable that this is so.

Two problems though.

1. Your model does not account for the black leaders who not only
do great work, but will bend for no one. Rice and Powell are prime
examples. I do not believe that *anyone* pulls their strings.
And frankly, although we know there is still racism out there,
the hate shown towards conservative black leaders by liberals of
all colors, is often much, much worse than any racism they have
experienced. It starts with the idea that they are just puppets.

And how will your model hold up if Rice becomes president?
Think she will be one of the bosses then? But she will STILL be
slandered by the left for not being one of them, won't she?

This is not what King had in mind is it?


2. The fundamental difference between the left and the right on
this is NO LONGER "do we like black people?" any more. This is not
1961. (and honestly, look at liberal cities like San Fran and
Portland OR and try to find some black people) The fundamental
difference today is whether we believe that the government should
provide equal opportunities or equal results. The right believes
that the government should provide equal opportunites, but the
left believes th

at unequal results automatically equal racism.

The left believe this because it keeps them in power and keeps
people coming back to them for handouts, creating a permanent
underclass of black victims on the bottom and white liberals on top with
handouts.

But of course, equal opportunity does not always give equal results.
And that offends those with socialistic bents. Unfortunately for
them, the methods of providing equal results always fail, and
pretty much everyone knows it.

Why do African immigrants do so much better than many black
americans? They do. Better grades, better jobs. It clearly is
not the genes.

Racism isn't just sinful, it's stupid.

It's the damn culture, not the people. Read Thomas Sowell on this.
That culture, derived from slave owners, has a history all the way
back to england, scotland and ireland, and every group, white or
black that embraces it, sees the same phenomena that black
american culture currently suffers from.

I spent most of my life in academia, and I have done more than
have black friends. I have mentored and led young black men.
Today, nearly all are succesful and many are professionals, and it
all started with changing the way they think. Racism is not the
issue. It's like "whack-a-mole", we need to hammer it wherever it
pops up, but that won't change things. What made the change
is a sense of ownership.

Young man came in my office one day to apologize for being late.
Said he was in jail. Turns out he was in McDonalds late at night,
just "eating while black" and a couple of Fontana cops rousted him.
When he simply asked them why they were hassling him, he ended
up in jail with a summons. He was so mad he was nearly shaking.
He felt beaten, and like a victim of a mssive power structure that
hated him for his skin color. He was set to pay the fine, but the
hate from this expreience was palpable in him. I said "to hell with
that, don't pay a damn thing". You are an AMERICAN, you own
this country as much as anyone else. Don't react to this like those
racist cops expect you to. You go in dressed well, and plead
"not guilty" in a loud and clear voice and explain what happened
as if you expect to be exonerated. Be righteous, be strong.

The judge threw out the case and chewed out the cops.

Today he helps run a restaurant. Has a nicer car than I do.

The reason I reacted so strongly to Kanye West's nonsense, and
Jason repeating it here, is that it goes to the heart of this issue.

White racists look at the looting in NO and go "how come them
people is all black?" As if their skin was what made them criminals.
And Kanye and others cannot stand the apparent loss of respect
that represents, so they must push the blame somewhere else, so
they tell lies about the president, while not doing a DAMN THING
to help anyone in NO.

These people. Kanye and the racists, are two side of the same
person. Both full of sh*t. If there was ONE black hero, (and there
were hundreds) then the evil in NO was not Bush or the white power
structure, it was the evil in the criminal's own shriveled little
hearts. But to admit this, is to give an inch to the racists, so we
tell lies.

Here's the truth. The failure in NO was entirely due to the corrupt
mayor and his 255 school buses and the incompetent sobbing
governor. Could FEMA have reacted faster? Yes, but not by much
and Bush is only to blame if he does not fix FEMA.

Jason and Kanye, and the whole lousy bunch of liars here are so
short on facts that they must tell bigger and bigger lies and get
angrier and angrier to cover up their dishonesty. It won't work.

BTW, just for the record. I believe in reparations. Every black
american would get free college or trade school with living and
food paid for. Just in case you think I am a hard rightie...
No money though. No handouts.

And you if think I am pissed, read this guy:

ive I'm reading this.

So they SHOULDN'T promote the black guy because he's the best
worker down on the floor? Wait, that wouldn't be right... if
he's the best worker, then he SHOULD be the one to get promoted.
No, wait again, but then he'd be getting screwed by getting
promoted, for the reasons that you just said. OK, so we don't
want him to get screwed, so we'll leave him where he is... no,
but then we'd be screwing him by NOT promoting him.

Looks like from your perspective the black guy is screwed either
way by working there.
