Thanks,
JohnI appear that paris plays back the entire segment even if only a small
object of it is on the playing field. This was in my notes regarding
compacting and seems to indicate this:
Here's the important thing to remember - the portion of the audio file
being used is NOT determined by what portion of the audio file is
displayed on the editor's playing field. If you do some snipping,
cutting, deletions, etc. directly on the audio files object, PARIS does
not take this as a determination of which parts are IN USE or not.
The portions of file that are considered to be IN USE are those
reflected in the SEGMENTS of that file that s

how in the AUDIO window. A
segment exactly the same size of the audio file is created (by PARIS)
when the audio file is first recorded. Any further segments can only be
created by YOU by cutting/snipping the audio file's main segment and
then dragging the portion you want back into the audio bin from the
editor's playing field. This will create a segment that you can name
(e.g. Guitar Intro). Now PARIS will regard this(these) new segment(s)
that you create as portions of the audio file that are IN USE.
IMPORTANT - Until you physically remove the FULL sized segment that was
created by PARIS upon initially recording the track/file, PARIS will
consider the entire audio file to be in use, and performing a 'compact
files' will do virtually nothing.

EDS or Paris EQ's. I'm just letting other know who may be wondering.
Also, if you want a cool core dump in XP, start a render and then hit
CTRL-ALT-DEL and kill Paris. My mistake, I was closing paris and
didn't realize the render was still going and it stopped responding. Ka
blamo!

The only thing I have against Macs is that - at least with
regard to DAW applications - you're really locked into more
proprietary stuff. Less flexibility... and that's the same thing
I have against PT, now that sonically (at least IMO) the new HD
systems are really quite good. If you need to upgrade your Mac
at some point, you've got buy a whole new one... same thing
with PT - every few years you're forking over another down
payment on a house in order to get a new system just to stay
current.
NeilHi all -
Been messing with V3 for a bit and noticed a real problem.
Testing on a 3-card system, 2 MECs installed (on A and B
cards), 2 ADAT and one Sync on MEC A, 1 8-input on MEC B.
Can record fine with MIX A, MEC A. Getting no sound at all
on any inputs for MEC B, Mix B. Tried to load V2.2, and all
is fine - can record on MEC B inputs all day long. When using
V3, see input lights on module, but have no meters in mixer
and no sound - MEC B syncing to WC fine - plays sound accross
all submixes just fine from projects recorded on V2.
Any Thoughts?Zan,
I'm not

NeilWell, 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

Well, we all knew that! Deej , your just a glutton for punishment; )
Glad your up and rockin again!
As for your old PC, you could run it as a UAD-1, T.C., or Pulsar farm. Wasn't
Amy looking to get a new computer? You could make it mobile unit, or just
keep it as a back up. Just some thoughts.
