I agree completely. It is also true that one of the best ways to learn to
write songs or break a writer's block is to learn to play a bunch of other
people's songs.Good words.

There a reason for this madness. I've been following your posts carefully
and it's pretty obvious as I have more time to get into this why you have
been doing your mix moves and automation in the native app and pans in Paris
(no way to pan otherwise if the native tracks aren't feeding a stereo buss,
now is there, plus, if a track in the native app is being sent to a reverb
or other effect and the effects are being physically bussed to an aux in
Paris, lowering the fader on the Paris track doesn't reduce the amount of
reverb being sent-it's a prefader scenaio which can only be solved by using
inserts on the native tracks if fader moves are to be made in Paris). I was
looking at an 8 fader controller because the 9th fader and the other
functions aren't really that necessary- the Houston, Radikal or Mackie
controllers are more designed to work in a scenario where there is a mix
bus. I guess I could assign the 9thfader of one of these units to my drum
bus, or another bus though. I'm trying tio decide whether to just order
another Behringer and see if it works or buy a more sophisticated
controller. The Tascam 24 fader controller looks damned nice, but I Cubase
SX 3 doesn't support it.......Murphy's law, eh?

Maybe a Houston controller. Since they are obsolete and unsupported, it
would be right at home here. Half my gear is no longer being
manufactured/supported. I'm gonna rename this place *The Studio Of The
Living Dead*.

;o)

That is truly sickening..

TCHmmm..
If it were 48khz then it would play faster than slower.
The project is at 44.1.
I will have to look at it.

Thanks.

out this after posting to Gene on another thread about
buying a Houston controller and thinking it
might be appropriate for this place since so much of my stuff is
discontinued/unsupported. It's pretty amazing how much of this stuff I have
(and still use depending on what's happening)

ROTFL!!!!! This might be causing the slowdown too if maybe she is pissed off
about something? Remember, Paris is a very intuitive app.

Its the 29th of June if I'm not mistaken. Oh yaa and
the same to Martin Harrington

respect
NappyHas anyone tried to install this yet? Any problems?

ThanksThanks for all the responses. Tightvnc looks like the ticket, particularly
since it's free! A monitor cable's probably out of the question - it'd need
to be about 13-14 metres long!

>Hi,
I want to use my J-Station or Focusrite Platinum Tonefactory as a DI box
straight into a recorder, and then later “re-amp” via the J-Station (using
an insert on the recorder) and rerecord the J output. My only worry is that
there will be an impedance mismatch and level mismatch which will adversely
affect sound quality: see http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/jun04/articles/qa0604-3.htm
Presumably the J input is configured as a hi-zi instrument level input only
(unless anyone knows any different… !).
Alternatively, as the J has I presume a buffered bypass (and I have two of
them), I could run the signal into one J bypassed and then into the other
J non-bypassed (though this seems a bit silly, but checkout the above article).


Just to clarify, from the SOS article I understand that there may be level
and impedance issues with amp, but does this also apply to fx units (e.g.
J-Station, normal Pod, any guitar effects), or are such units equally happy
with line and guitar level inputs?

Many thanks

Danielgoogle TIGHTVNC. You'll love it. Let me know if you have any
questions. Just install the Server on the box you want to view and the
Viewer on the box you will view from. The middle viewer (fast
compression i think) works best for me.
