Omigod, Lamont... look what you've started!
This week = Deej being excited about this new app, loving it in
every regard, thrilling in it's versatility.
Next week = "Hmmm, I wish there was this ONE little other thing
I could get it to do... I'm gonna try reconfiguring this a bit;
I'll keep you guys posted."
Next week in some 4:00 in the morning post = "OK, after going
through seventeen BSOD's in one night, seventy-five cups of
coffee, and a divorce, I finally got this thing streaming at
576k, upconverting through three Lavry Blue DAC's in series,
then crunching to 12-bit though a Fairlight CMI Series 1,
paralleled with an EMT Plate reverb and back in through a set
of ADC's a friend of mine made from a toaster (note if you're
going to try this: the older, black bakelite toasters sound
WAAAY better than the newer silverface stainless steel ones),
I then tried using a "warming" circuit built from a magnetron
tube out of a 1972 Amana microwave oven, and lo & behold, it's
WORKING!!!"
(Five minutes later at 4:05am): "Damn, this #*&#%$&^%^@ setup
just started smoking & caught my Behringer Headphones on fire
as I was trying some new mix techniques... or was it the
headphones that caught the rig on fire - they ARE Behringers,
after all? Anyway, it's a good thing that I'm pretty much a
cueball up there, or else I'd feel like Michael Jackson in that
Pepsi commercial. More later, I'm going to bed now - good thing
Amy left me, or else I'd have to sleep on the couch, what with
me smelling like a fireplace & all. Oh well, at least I have
the dogs."
Later that same morning at 6:00 am = "ARGH! It's only 5:59 and
already this is the day from hell! The dogs kicked me out of
bed, I tried going out into the stable, thinking Amy had taken
the horses with her & at least I'd have some peace & quiet
there, but between the horses kicking me, the bears rummaging
around in the trash bins outside, and this muthaf^%#king skunk
that just HAD to make his presence known, I didn't sleep a
wink... well, off to the bathtub to soak in some peroxide &
tomato juice to try & get this skunk smell off of me... I've
got clients coming in at 10:00 for a mix session."
Next day in the afternoon = "Whew! Man, I am exhausted, 176
hours straight with no sleep, and with the problems I'm having
with this rig, I don't think we got a viable mix down on ANY of
their songs... because of the fire in the new PC, I went back
to a Paris/Cubase mix matrix summed to a TASCAM Portastudio for
that phat analog sound, and everything was going well until I
tried to get the Portastudio sync'ed to a word clock -
disaster... I was so sleepy that I didn't realize this was an
impossibility... BTW, anyone know how to unwedge a BNC cable
from an RCA audio-in jack once they've been super-glued to each
other???"

These are the blessings of a never boring life Neil (and Amy's still
hanging in there, bless her heart.)
;o)
Actually....I'm getting a bit bored with trying to do what may be possible
but is hitting the point of diminishing returns as far as the PITA factor is
concerned.
I'm going to reconfigure a few projects to mix here in Cubase with 8 stems
bussed to Paris submix 1 for summing. I think I can achieve the same mojo
without all the convoluted voodoo routing between the two DAWs. If that's
the case, I'll likely stop the madness. I'm gettin' kinda tired of this to
be honest.
I've got one more experiment to try with Forte though. It may put this whole
thing over the top. Stay tuned.

I e-mailed the folks at Brainspawn this morning describing my setup and
telling them what I was hoping to do with Forte vis-a-vis Paris. They are
interested to see how this goes and they provided me a developers license so
I can try to get this happening.
Now that I've got a full version that saves presets and won't time out, the
first thing I'm going to do is to try to create preset FX rack for Paris
using UAD-1 plugins with the Delaycomp + an additional sample delay (which
is possible with this plugin) to compensate for the buffer settings of the
native audio interface. I'm going to work my way up to a 40 channel scenario
with 8 stereo aux busses to/from Paris. The Delaycomp will be set to
compensate for 4 or 5 UAD-1 plugins (this may chage depending on how much
latency is created and how this translates to the Paris editor timeline
usability-wise). I'll be doing some latency measurements to see if it's
going to be something that can work reasonably well when working with Paris
automation while mixing. If the latency is low enough to allow usable visual
reference in the Paris editor during automation tasks, then we've got
something we can use, so as I mentioned before, the number of plugins
possible will be more or less dependent on the *feel* of all of this. The
routing capabilities of this program are mind boggling and may provide us
the elusive bussing options that we currently lack in Paris. If this looks
like it's going to be successful, I'll make up a few templates and get them
to Kim so Parisites can DL them for use with the Forte product. I can even
envision this working with a native audio interface running on the same
machine as Paris (thus precluing the need for two DAWs), as long as it had
the horsepower. If it works the way I'm hoping, this would allow you to
open up a template that is preset to compensate for "X" number of plugins on
each track that is routed from the I/O of a DAW running UAD-1 plugins and
Forte to the I/O of Paris. I think I may be able to get multiple external
hardware processors working across Paris submixes...like I'm doing with
Cubase right now. It appears that Forte has some synchronization options
as well. I'm not far enough into it to even know if plugin parameters can be
automated, but if so, and it is slaved to the Paris timeline, then that's
another biggie. Will it be stable? .............well, anything would be more
stable than what is happening when trying to work this way with Cubase SX so
it's worth a try. Will it sound good? Not sure. there will definitely be
more gainstaging issues than what is happening in SX, but hey.....we're
supposed to be engineers and it's our job to kick some gainstage
ass!!!!!........right?
Putting on the lab coat (which has straps to modify it as a straightjacket)
.. Stay tuned,
:O)

Why do I envision Gene Wilder in "Young Frankenstein" with the lightning
striking around him, crying out "It's Alive! It's Alive!", every time I
read one of DJ's messages?
Rock on, dude....

Well....good news so far. The buffer/latency of the audio interface on the
native DAW is set at 512k. If I nudge the Paris tracks to the left by 10+1
samples and then insert a Sampleslide instance on both of these tracks set
to 48 samples, I am sample accurate compensating for the latency of the
native audio interface. Now here's the good part:
I have the UAD-1 delay compensation set for 5 x UAD-1 plugins on two
instances of Forte routing audio through two Paris kick drum tracks right
now. I've got Drumagog inserted on both tracks and a UAD-1 LA-2A inserted on
the other. I set the UAD-1 Delaycomp to compensate for 4 plugins and I'm
locked on tight as a ....well......drum.....and the latency relative to the
timeline scrolling across the Paris editor is not a factor at all. I hear
the hits as the events are displayed on the editor. this makes Paris
automation usable with up to 5 UAD-1 plugins on a track. This was the first
experiment......to see if it's possible to load lots of UAD-1 plugins on a
track and still be able to use Paris fader automation relative to the
timeline of the editor as the timeline scrolls during playback. If this
didn't work I was going to bail immediately since my whole point of this is
to achieve something that is actually practical using Paris automation.
Now I'm going to get brutal with Forte/my native DAW and streaming from
different submixes and see if I have any of the freezeups that I was having
with Cubase SX.
(rubbing palms of hands together with evil
glee!!!)...........MUHAHAHA!!!!..........c'mon Igor.......let's get a pair
of pliers and a blowtorch and get midevil on it's ass..........

Yes. I've got 12 drum tracks cranking through various combinations of UAD-1
plugins. They're absolutely slammin' with no drift/slop at all and the
editor is scrolling right along with the audible hits on the events with 5
plugins compensated on all 12 tracks. The CPU meter on the DAW running Forte
is idiling between 2% and 3% while processing these 12 tracks.
I'm having a problem with the menu's in forte right now. I've got 72 I/O on
my native rig. They show up in stereo pairs and then below as mono I/O. When
I go to choose an output for a new bus, I can't go beyond 12 before the menu
runs out at the bottom of my screen. I've got a post in to the developer
about this right now. Also, I'm seeing something that leads me to believe
that it may only be possible to create 15 busses in this app. I'm not sure
about this yet but that's gonna limit a few things as I need to be able to
create a bus for *every* Paris track in order for this to work the way I
need it to so I'm gonna need 36 mono busses and 10 stereo busses.
......back to the lab........I'm getting ready to torture my UAD-1
cards..............muhahahaha!!!!!!
