Hi Don,
Sorry about the delay, was out at Lake Louise for the day...
just got back in. NOTHING in Paris is normalled... you have
to patch everything. There are two ways to route individual
tracks... through "inserts" and through "auxes". If you use
the aux sends, you can select external on each aux bus and
hard pan to get up to 16 sends per MEC. Using inserts, you
have to patch the inputs of the inserts as well as the
outputs... it doesn't matter if you are only using them to
send sound, you must patch a return signal for them to
become active. I believe the same holds true for the Aux buses.
As for CEP... I thought is only had the capability to record
two tracks at once??? Double check this, but I am positive
it can only accept two.
I'll be at the studio in the morning if you are still stuck.
I would call now, but it's after midnight now on your end.
David.

Hey Dave
Now there's a place I haven't been to in thirty years...must be totally
different in the winter.
Emailed DJ and got things sorted out...almost a Paris 101 class.
What I meant by normalled was the ADAT module's input / output correspond to
the in/out of the patchbay slots the ADAT module is assigned too...wrong
choice of words.
And yes you can record more than two tracks at a time in CEPro...multitrack
mode will handle as many inputs as you can throw at it (well 16 anyway)
I'm going to attempt to get wavelab working today...my initial attempts only
produced what I can best describe as a lurching in Wavelab when I hit play
in Paris.
Once it's sorted out I'll be installing Nuendo 2.0 and see if I can get that
to work with Dakota and then sync'd to Paris...gonna be a fun day or so
One other thing. I hear there are issues with two ADAT modules in the same
MEC and Windows XP...is this correct
Thanks

Another dumb question
I also have a 442 that I've never wired up...if I decide to use it will I
need an external word clock for the three units to function together?

Hey Don,
There are adat card issues, but people get differring results. I am
positive this has to do with how the beta driver works with various
hardware. I personally have not been able to get two adat cards
working in the same MEC, and have to have only one per MEC.
The best results will be obtained by chasing Paris to MTC, rather than
using Paris as a transport master. This will be especially true once
you get Nuendo in the fray.
As to the third interface, yes, you will need a WC generator.
Actually, with two computers running now, I would strongly suggest
getting one anyway. Adding a WC gen will smooth out your clocking
issues and make the addition of Nuendo to the setup less painfull.
The WC gen will eliminate the "dog chasing its tail" problem that
multi-source DAWs face.

Yes. I tried using a 442 with 2 x MECs. My best result was to hang it off
card A. Not sure why, but clock syncing was more easily achieved this way.
I'm speculating that it's because the 442 initializes when the computer is
booted whereas MECs have external PSU's....a long shot, but maybe.
As far as syncing to Wavelab, since I'm using ADAT sync for timeline lock
and WL doesn't have ASIO pointer positioning available as a sync source, I
don't have WL synced to Paris, but I don't really need that. It should be
possible using midi. I don't have a midi interface on my Paris DAW so I
don't know.

Have a MIDI interface in both machines, set Paris to chase to incoming
MTC in the set-up menu. Hit play on Paris then play in Nuendo. The
other option is adat sync in Nuendo... but I don't know if the Dakota
card will do this or not. Much experimenting in your future! Either
way, all of this will be easier with external WC.
