not that i was freinds with any of you gents, but about 3 years ago i went
on tour with my band (thornbird.com) and figured Paris would be dead and
burried by the time i got off,. well here we are in 2007 and its really heart
warming to see many of the same names using it as was a few years back,.
funny there was a time when i read this news group every single day,. sometimes
2xs per day.. any ways...
heres the deal,. i got an 8 card system, magma, extra stuff, mecs ,442's
etc,. and my entire studio is built around paris, of course everybody has
switched to hd or bought an older mix plus system, or logic, or ??? and i
cant help but wonder if that would increase my $ viabilaty, but my heart
has loved paris, and still does, so the question is..
is there anything that's worth switching to for the price?
if not is there any thing new that i missed in the last few years?
is there anyway to sum the mix bus and run it though a comp 1st (ie slam
the entire drumset?) i assume not, don't bother responding to that unless
you found a work around. (no i dont wanna bounce my drums down to 2 tracks
1st.)
anybody have people that work FOR them in their studio,. and with that said,
thinking about getting some pt stuff, just so i don't have to always be the
man..
any and all thoughts or feelings are welcome, especially if this is your
business,.
again, good to see the same fine folks still working these great peices of
gear!

Hope it was a good tour for you! I for one expect to be using PARIS for as
long as the hardware holds out. I'm also planning to keep my Prophet T8 and
my Chroma (and my Fizmo, SY-99, Z1, Microwave XT, etc, etc) going along with
it! None of them are made any more either, but like PARIS, nothing else
works or sounds quite like them. :-)

In a word, no. ;-) I do use other programs (Digital Performer, Logic,
Live, etc) for other purposes, but IMHO in the studio, nothing beats
PARIS...
Interesting thought about "viability" though. There was a while there when
it seemed that you had to have some kind of PT system just to have people
look your way. Personally, I think that time is over, and people are more
interested in what actually comes out of your studio instead of what's in
it...

Yeah, Doug! You said...

Absolutely--in fact, the more a client "demands" ProTools, the less likely
I will enjoy working with them anyway....

Hey Doug, how's my old T8 doing? I might be able to visit her in a week
or so.
Speaking of analog, guess what I'm looking at right now...
A Buchla System 101 (my best guess, there's no model number on it).
Looks like it has the Model 212 Dodecamodule, Model 258 Dual Oscillator
module, and Model 217 Multiple Touch Controlled Voltage Source.
Cheers,
-Jamie

I really love this thing Jamie! It's quite the hoot to open up the top and
wave a flashlight back and forth in it as an encore. I've been spending a
lot of time putting together the modular lately, and I'm planning to use the
T8 to play it. When I'm done soldering, I'll have over 60 modules...

Cool, but I'll be out of town from the 12th to the 22nd... We'll be in
Sedona for our anniversary and then I'm headed to NAMM for the first time...

Nice. I've never had a chance to play with any Buchla stuff. Some day I
hope to change that...

Nice!
The T8 is an excellent controller keyboard, and also a very responsive
synth in its own right. Thanks for giving her a good, appreciative home.

Dang, well have a great trip! I'll be in Tucson only briefly this time
so it looks like I'll miss you. Hopefully I'll catch ya next time.

It's a wild little box. All analog, configurable via patch cables, and
the controller surface (not a trad keyboard) is capacitance-based.
Do you happen to know a good source for short banana plug control
voltage cables and 1/8th inch audio patch cables?
