What I have found is that my motherboard works with magma ONLY if magma
pci is put only in slots 4,5,6 of P4B-E
If I put it on slots 1,2,3 no Magma or other cards sitting in Magma can
be recognized.
Also I cannot have Paris working from inside Magma (four cards or less)
.. There is some kind of distorted sound almost right away, totally
unusable, but UAD1 and powercore works great that way.
Do you think its Magma (the 7 pci slot expander) fault or motherboard's ?
I still use P4B-E because it is the on ly motherboard I know that can
use my 1.5 GB Kingston PC133 SDRAM modules.

Dimitrios

>>Dear David,
It is not the sharing that is the problem ,even on different IRQ numbers
EDS cards DO NOT work properly inside Magma.
I guess trhis has to do with the situation that the Magma host card DOES
NOT work on slots 1,2,3 which | think are more reliable than 4,5,6 i

n my
motherboard.
XP do not see any cards inside magma when host card magma seats on slots
1,2,3...strange right ?
Does this have to do anything with north south thing on motherboard chips ?
Thanks

If you have a hard drive that you don't use, that will work in a pinch
(that's what I did while I waited for the part to arrive).

>Howdy.
I want to get a Lucid clock for my three-card, two-MEC Paris rig.
Several questions:
1. Can I clock my Kurzweil Rumour via the SPDIF sends and returns from Paris
once Paris is clocked via the Lucid?
2. What's the best way to handle using the Rumour across 2 or more EDS cards
digitally? Digital patchbay, and if so, does that device interfere with the
clock signal coming from the Luicd via Paris? Or do you just re-assign
submixes? That could get confusing....
I also might add a few more fx boxes and a 3rd MEC to the mix soon.
Thanks,
JimmyHowdy.
I've got a modified Fender Twin with the sweetest sound you ever heard. I
was thinking of adding a digital box to the mix for live work, and wondered
how one utilizes such jobbies on an old amp with no fx send-return. Do the
various fx boxes have settings where you can chose the position of the
device, say "before amp" vs. "fx return"?

I use a pair of MAudio Digipatch Units for doing this with no problems at
all.

That should work fine and dandy..

>Welcome,
DeejMiguel,
By monophonic I meant the opposite of polyphonic soundsources, not stereo.
Only monophonic soundsources (one note at the time) like vocals, guitar lines,
bass lines etc. can be corrected. No piano nor guitar chords nor mixes for
example can
be adjusted. But with Serato you can. I don't say that's it without artifacts
but it's the best I've heard up to now and I use it a lot for publicity and
film work. I purchased a license of Melodyne Studio Edition about a year
and a half ago and had a hell of a time to make it work with Logic using
the Melodynebridge, so I gave up. (never tried with Rewire though) This part
of the advertising is at least misleading.
But since I got a new G5 2.7ghz Mac lately, I might spend a minute on trying
one more time on this machine with Logic 7.1. I'll report if there's something
positive to say.
Best wishes,
Ab

The 5 Volt Load Resistor that I bought attaches to the PS via regular HD
power connector (red & black cables).
I've been scouring the net for pics, but haven't found anything yet. If I
do find one, I'll post it. If all else fails, I'll pull my magma chassis
and take a picture.

Ciao,
Richwe'd all agree that the market driven music business doesn't bring the best
music to the radio and such, but seriously, whats the solution? I can't
see payola ever going away, and honestly think that even complaining about
it is naive.
I dont listen to the radio nor watch MTV, so I lost touch with the current
acts a long time ago. I operate in my own HYDRO world, and I dont put crap
up on my channel, but then again I woudn't mind if someone slipped me some
dough.

You might be right. I haven't pulled the keyboard apart yet. It didn't feel
out of alignment though, and it looked a little twisted. Hard to say though.
I could attempt to remove and reshape it, but I've heard that the keys do
warp on these things. That being the case I'm willing to buy spares just
so I have them. I will keep the old one though. If I was to warp it back
it's altogether possible it would just warp again in a couple of years. Me
feeling is that if wood decides it wants to be a certain shape, you should
probably let it be.
This may depend on the cost of new keys though...
Cheers,
Kim.FWIW, when I shot the video with BT, he had 8 EDS cards loaded up in a 13
slot magma, and another rig with an SBS I think was housing 3 or so in it.

I'm just curious, did you try dragging the WAV files into the Paris folder
and select "add audio file" from the edit screen and let Paris convert them.
I'm just wondering if that produces similiar results.

See? Now THAT makes perfect sense.
The real key to this whole thing is to use a vintage girdle spring for
the fam. Modern girdle springs just don't have that certain vintage
"something" that true vintage springs do. Vintagely.
Neil, about your earlier post about the tinfoil and zip cord buried in
the yard.. you certainly didn't use any of that precious stash of
vintage tinfoil you use for the hats, right? I refuse to believe that
you'd actually bury real, honest-to-goodness vintage tinfoil in the
backyard.

"Enjoy every sandwich." -- Warren Zevon
"Here at Microsoft, Quality is job, oh, I dunno, maybe 7 or 8?"I'm writing to ask a question for a co-worker considering the UAD Card.
Since I know a lot of you use it regularly, I thought you might be able to
help.
Here's the scenario:
My co-worker has PT LE/G5 at home, and we've got a PT HD3/G4 system here at
work. (Don't worry guys; I still proudly use PARIS in my personal studio.)
He really wants to be able work on some initial mixes at home and then bring
them into our work studio to do final tweaks. Of course, the big question
is somehow getting an assortment of nice plug-ins that he can use both at
home and at work without having to purchase them twice. So our newfangled
idea is to have him get a UAD Card and then literally transport the PCI card
back and forth between work and home.
Are any of you guys doing something like this, or have you tried something
like this? How does that work as far as permissions go? Is the UAD its own
dongle, or is there some other authorization process that needs to occur
every time one switches computers?
Let me know your thoughts, and thanks in advance for any information/ideas
you might have.
BrianI would never disconnect that reverb. It's very sweet, and the tremolo that
comes out of it is the best I've ever played. I'd just like to add digital
delay from a rack-box; it's gonna be a lot easier to recreate my productions
that way.

Any pointers much appreciated.
