Well
A lot of developments on the PC side. Mike Audet has written multi core drivers for XP, and some have Paris running quite well on Win7. Though I still use Mac for everything else, I use PC for Paris.
Kerry led development of better OMS export, so Paris mixes can truly be transferred to other PC apps. And he persuaded the Reaper guys to add Paris files as a usable format.
Senderella provides a work around for no internal native bussing, and Vertex DSP allows for manual delay compensation for all plugins and external routing.
I myself use a separate portable rig for tracking, and Logic for drum enhancement. Natively, I find the Harrison Mixbus comes the closest to providing the mojo that Paris still, IMHO provides sonically. I use external converters clocked to a Big Ben, and external comps, eqs and reverbs. I'm OK with still working at 48K.
For sure though, a lot of users are moving on, or they just don't post here anymore. The workarounds and limitations in Paris, combined with the sophistication of the latest CuBendo, Reaper, Logic, Mixbus and the improved latency issues have led to many folks saying good bye.
Sad, but inevitable.
Ted

That's cool. I remember he had done a couple of those before so it's nice to see that he got a couple more done!
Quote: | Very interested to hear about what you're working on that's aside from Paris, but honestly unless Paris can be brought into Intel Mac usefullness, there's really no reason to run Paris on Mac anymore. On PC at least, pretty much all the latest plugs are available, plus the ability to run on faster boxes...keep us in the know as much as you can with what you're doing though, I'm sure we'd all be interested.

The main things that have occupied my time for the last couple years (besides my errant teenage daughter, sigh) have been MIDIbox projects, analog synths, Eventide Harmonizers and software defined radios. (Not much, eh? LOL!) After waiting about a year for parts, I'm about to finally ship the TR-808 clone, my LP1 compatible foot pedal is in the final stages, and the new Harmonizer management software will be ready to ship soon too. On top of that, next month I plan to take the test to get my ham license...
Sadly, the only intel-based Mac I own is my Macbook laptop, so I won't be doing any PARIS/Mac/intel stuff any time soon...
