Hello All ,
This is my first post in this forum and has been over 10 years since I last posted a message back in the early days of Paris . It's been many years since I have used my Paris system , I had children what more can I say  I recently got my system back up and running and as always love it . The problems I'm having , which from memory I never did in the past . When I have more than 1 submix added in a project I can hit play and then stop , perfect , but 3-4 times out of 10 in the current project I'm working on Paris freezes and I have to wait 4-5 seconds for it to respond again . So playback listening to an edit , stop , then freeze , 4-5 seconds later it responds again . I doesn't crash just freeze . I have a couple of Vst plugins running nothing compared to what I used years back on a much slower PC , it's rather annoying to have to constantly wait breaking the work flow when editing . Is this normal , is it due to submixs or Vst plugins ? . I'm running Win XP , Paris Pro 3 ,1 card /Mec system , cpu is a 1.8 core 2 duo, 1 gig ram , audio using separate HD from Windows . Was a fresh install recently , just Paris and a few other audio apps . If anyone has any thoughts as to what it may be I'd greatly appreciate it . Whilst I have the chance thanks for reading and I'd like to say thank you to all the people who continually contribute to the forums , the online resources , web pages , and the Paris system on a whole . Since the early days of Chuck Duffy's newsgroup to now I have always read and tried to keep up with any developments , so the Paris forum is like an old friend , I still love my system , I own many other alternatives like Sonar8.5 and still prefer to use Paris for tracking real world sounds . I should have known when I bought the system , everything I really think is wonderful and have bought in the past is sacrificed at the Audio God's alter , like Emagic Logic for Windows , Gigastudio , Paris and on and on . The first 2 I found wonderful replacements for , but never one that captured the audio portion like Paris
Thank you for your time .
Matthew

Heya Matthew - that computer runs rings around the old computers PARIS was designed for (and ran great on), so you definitely shouldn't be seeing that sort of behaviour unless something's wrong in your system configuration. I'll let those more knowledgeable about PCs chime in with ideas but in the meantime you might want to start by checking out John's PARIS XP tweak checklist, either on his site or on the wiki.

I was going to ask what drivers you're using - yes, Mike's drivers are absolutely the way to go to make this run well, the old ones are very complex and fiddly to set up and Mike's have killed a lot of old bugs.

Heya Matthew - yeah, 16 tracks should be zero problem (BT was streaming far more off less powerful computers). I'm rushing out the door and don't have a comprehensive list of bugs at my fingertips, but for example one big one killed was the "only one ADAT card per MEC" bug.

Thanks for the help guys , no memroy wasn't an issues , I checked that out , but A resolution !! Not sure why but it must have been the ParisStudioControlLib.dll causing the issues . With the kind help from Mike Audet the new drivers work perfectly and no freezing at all . Just getting streaming errors now due the the vst plugin . So the next question is what would be the optimal paris config settings to use on more recent hardware using Mike's drivers . I have looked at all the old Paris post most of which were Win 98 based . Anyone have any more current config setting thoughts .
Thanks
