Looking for help mixing with PARIS outside the box.
How do you have it set up? What I was originally thinking was
to "external out" each channel but that would only get me 8 outs.
I an running 2 EDS cards so what is was thinking was to 8 out on
one card and 8 out on the other, but I would think there would
be an easier way.
Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx Dominic

You can do this if you set the analog I/O appropriately in the Paris
patchbay, then set the respective aux to External and stereo, enable the
respective aux on the tracks you want to hear on the respective input of the
HDS-16, physically connect the output from the respective auxes to the
inputs of the HDS16 and crank the volume pot on the HRM-16 mixer. If you
want to hear the entire mix on the HRM mixer, route your main mix (not
monitor mix) to stereo D of the HDS-16. Now that you have that working, set
you mixer to post fader and
go buy yourself an Alesis Wedge on EBay and hook it up to the FX I/O on the
HRM mixer and you'll never have to worry about jacking around with FX levels
from the board. The HDS/HRM is a great system, IMO, plenty of gain
available for 600 ohm cans and more versatile I/O situation (at least for
studio applications) than the (somewhat similar) Mytek Private Q system
which, when similarly configured, costs around $1000.00 more and
exponentially more and more as it is expanded. Something about running line
level audio down those big old SCSI cables sounds much *phatter* than the
LAN based HDS-6 system, to my ears.
Welcome to the club.

DJ
Thanx for your response....
What I was actually thinking was to do this same type of set up
so that I can mix outside the box.
What do you think?
Thanx again Dominic

You can apply as many tracks to an aux channel as you want in a Paris submix
and you can also gain stage with the aux send/return. Since I've never done
this, I can't speak to the panning aspect of it, but I would think that if
you have your fader levels and panning applied in Paris, the auxes set to
stereo and center panned and the input channels on your mixer panned wide L
& R, then your mix panning in Paris might be preserved (because if you're
using auxses, this is where you're going to have to do your painning....in
Paris)........but then, you're not controlling your individual track fader
levels and panning on your outboard mixer. This might be a problem,
depending on how much control you want. If you're just using the mixer for
summing and you don't have enough inputs to handle anything but a few stems,
I can see doing this. You will have to monitor everything through the
outboard mixer, obviously, unless you are feeding everything full on through
the auxes and this is where you might run into some major distortion with
your stems since the aux sends/returns are gain stages that can be
overdriven. If you output 1:1 through the Paris inserts into corresponding
channels of an analog mixer (if you have enough inputs on the outboard
mixer), you have much less chance of this happening unless, of course, you
boost the Paris channel fader to 20 and crank the EQ output gain stages on
the individual channels, etc.
I'm simultaneously mixing on two DAWs with automation working on both of
them and I have to be really careful about the gain stging thing. I'm sorta'
doing ht you're proposing to do, except Paris is my *outboard* whereas
Cubase is my ITB.
