Hi,
After a touchy email I am about to describe my Paris creamware setup.
Paris users "should" have digital in outs.
442 interface with spdif can do , mecs with adat cards far better intergration.
Even analog connections can do here, but you could avoid extra AD/DA routes.

First of all.
Creamware looks like what Paris could grow up with version 7.x and up :)
It is totally dsp oriented environement a totally awesome routing possibilities
familiar to Paris patch-bay.
You know cables and devices hoockups.

Creamware has the Pulsar I cards that have 4 dsp chips , Pulsar II cards
that have 6 dsps (recommended) and Power pulsars that have an amzing of 15
dsps !
You can have up to 3 cards on same computer system.
PIII would be sufficient or any computer as the matter of fact.
Each Pulsar II card (pulsar I discontinued) has normally the classic option
which gives two analog in/outs (24/96) good sounding conversion 16 adat in/outs,
spdif in out and two midi in/outs totally 32 midi channels.
Each Pulsar card has the main on board effects included which are the usual
effects like chorus, delays , reverbs, synthesizers, compressors, limiters,
tons of free devices that can be found on www.planetz.com/forums all of very
good quality plus the beloved extras.
The fantastic new ones form digitalaudiosoft are the SSL channels strip (fantastic
ssl emule) the vintage eq's that has a pultec a Neve 1084 and an API 550
eq all awesome sounding, hearing is believing, the best reverb I have heard
so far RMX 160 the RMX 16 emulator, a awesome dynamic eq with many bangs
SSL compressor (come free with buying anything) all sold around 99 Euros
each.
Bundles 198 Euros (like the three eqs I mentioned )
These guys are tremendous programmers and more emulations are to be available
like the Mastering device like the pro mastering facilities use and many
more.
Thats only one developer ofcourse.
Other worth mentiong ( I have that ) is SPL transient designer, yes this
exceptionla and expensive unit can be bought for 198 Euros for Pulsar and
can use up to 5 mono instances or 4 stereo anytime.
Believe me you have never heard such an attacker and ssustain shaper before
unless you have used a SPL external Transient designer device.
Creamware offers the Vinco which is a 1176 emulator on pars with UAD1 1176.
To cut a long story short aBOUT third party plugins there is a trmendous
resource of very very good plugins.
Say goodbye to VST !!!
And if you are gonna sya ok I need VSTI too, creamware is known as the ultimate
syntesizer creator.
Minimax B2003 Prodyseey Prohet5 are to be heard to be believed !!!
i HAVE MOST OF THEM they RULE !!!
Ok if you wanna use all these and synthesiuzers and the absolute MOST amazing
mixers available , real big professional consoles ,,, which are known to
be Oxford Son'y algorithms ! you will need many dsps , at least 12 , like
two Pulsars.
But you can go along with only one too !
Thats the way I started out !
The latency is sample wise.
The normal effects of pulsar are 4 samples latent and the latency does not
add with additional plugins on a mixer channel.
SPL has bigger latency around 40 samples.
Anyway I manage less than 80 samples track processing (as a matter of fact
I use exactly 80 samples with a delay plugin to be able to nudge 1ms back
in Paris for compensation).
I use three Pulsar II card for a total of 18 dsps and I am totally statisfied.
Really this digitalaudiosoft new company made things for Pulsar up to date.
Now everyone simulates older analog and great devices.
They are here with great prices for us.
The SSL strip for 99 E has this suberb eq plus a compressor to amnipulate
anyway you want an audio track and send it back to Paris.
So Paris out (spdif or adat )pulsar spdif or adat in, Pulsar effect , pulsar
spdif out or adat, paris spdif in or adat.
All this for less than 80 samples !!!
Adat in/out is 15 samples alone !
Forget the uad1 , powercore ( I sold them) get mecs and adats.
I have three mecs and three adats.
So 24 ins outs plus 6 spdif ins/outs makes 30.
Enouph for a song outboard processing I presume.
I you are so lucky to work with more adat cards so it will be...
You don't need to run your computer at low latency becvause Pulsar is realtime
!
So any slow computer can do trust me.
Pulsar cards are sold around 400-500 $ used with great additional plugins
so you can figure out the costs.
I can supply anyone with ready configured Pulsar environements and any help
with it !
DJ are you listening.
There are Wordclock and Adat sync addon card sold for Pulsar for 179 $ at
jrrshop.
You can have outboard devices connected to Pulsar adat in/outs using outboard
converters like Soundscape SS8IO-3 which are sold for arounbd 179 Euros NEW
at sydec belgium the soundscape owner.
These are 20bit converters but GREAT sounding.
I use two of these to intergrate outboard to Pulsar and then back to Paris.
I can write for hours but I don't know If I am saying the same things all
over cause I got carried away.
Kepp Paris alive.
Thing Pulsar as Paris extension.
FORGET VST UAD POWERCORE !
visit:
www.planetz.com/forums (tremendous Pulsar forum)
www.digitalaudiosoft.com
www.sonictimeworks.com ( the famous Timeworks 4080L DX reverb has been made
years now forPulsar as is their mastering compressor and track compressor
too.
Ask me anyting you want.

Dimitrios

Dimitrios,

Did you see this one on EBay? Somehow I decided to pass on sending a bank
wire to a guy in Romania with only one feedback (and this one for this exact
system that he sold last month), but it looks like a real monster of a DAW.

So Dimitrios,

You are not running Pulsar in an audio application like cubase SX. You are
just using it's standalone mixer and bussing Paris FX tracks *through* the
Pulsar DSP.......correct?

Thanks,

Deej

As I've said a dozen times, or more, I can vouch for the sonic quality of
the Creamware synths. The Prophet in particular is spectacular. I just worry
about compatibility and the stability of the company.

Dear DJ,
The four creamware cards cannot work all on same system so one luna must
be put on separate system or sold.
I don't know if he is a trusted guy.
I hope ebay will cover you in case.
I would prefer three pulsar II cards but this system sounds also great.
Yes I do not use any SX.
I use cubase 5 !!! for midi recording only !
Pulsar is used for sampler synths and EFFECTS processing like outboard hardware.
Glad you decided to try Creamware !
That means you are still with Paris right ?

Dimitrios

Hi,
I don't understand about the "compatability" thing.
This is Pulsar oriented only and compatible with creamware cards so why worry...
ABOUT the stability.
Pulsar never crashed on me once !
That is 4 years now.
Do I have to say more ?

Dimitrios

ebay WILL NOT cover you, nor will PayPal. I had phone conversations
with both and they say if I deliver you a box of rocks and they see a
tracking number that's all that matters. Enjoy the rocks.

Proceed with caution.

Hi,
The stability of the company was an issue over a year ago.
The company survived cause somebody put money on it.
They have updated twice from then their products and keep producing new things.
For intanse Klangbox , awesome new hardware standalone synths for a retail
priice of 499 $ !!!!
Minimoog Prophet B3 Proodyssey all these for 500 $ each.
Just simple 19" 1u rack no controls except for midi and outs.
Creamware is surviving and staying alive.
Anyway there is 3rd party support.
Even if they would drop it now their system rocks already and third party
plus free one and good ones are coming out every day !!
I cannot even try them all.
So why worry.
grab a pulsar card while you can.
Keep your Paris and intergrate them.
Regards,
Dimitrios

Of course on a separate machine.
The stress over pci is big even with two pulsar cards although I managed
to make them coexist when I had the magma.

Hi,
So the Creamware cards will work with new Intel Core 2, Intel
Quad-core, AMD dual core Opterons, AMD M2 and X2 processors, Apple G5
(IBM and INtel)? PCI-x, PCI 3.3v , PCI-e?
Or is it like the Paris EDS cards that only work on old used PC hardware?

Chris

Who doesn't have an old PC laying around???

I don't think you need somthing fast for the Creamware DSP cards.

HI James,
Who doesn't have a computer that will work flawlessly with the Pulsar card?
Sounds like somebody would being diving into the same pit as trying to
get Paris to work properly on new PC hardware. At least Paris was
discontinued so at least it has an excuse.:)
Sorry if I sound bitter but 2 years trying to sell the stuff and having
nothing but hassles and no support at all. most the time is seemed like
I was doing their damn hardware beta testing...

If they still have PCI buss and ACPI issues after all this time then
they should just redesign the card. I could easily get 4 Paris cards
working on a system from 98-2002 no problem. Getting more than one
Pulsar was a mind numbing process. By the looks of their newsgroup it
doesn't look like much has changed in 5+years. I guess that explains why
it has caught on at all.

It's great that Dimitrios has got it working so well but he is a Mad
scientist much like DJ..:)

Hi,
I am curious as why someone cannot make pulsar work ok.
I have a P4 2.6 with 1G memory ASUS P4B motherboard and have only stable
pulsar system.
Well if you try to run the system at the lowest possible ULLI (latency) 1.5ms
you may are getting serious problems now and then.
I don't get it.
Pulsar is dsp.
LATENCY is not an issue why bother with low asio latency settings ?
You can monitor via pulsar , even VSTI instruments via Cubase have no latency
when played via Creamware's midi interface.
I use the biggest asio latency and what the heck.
www.planetz.com/forums
There are hints tips problem solutions free effects announcements thousands
of users, the best forum there is , period.
Regards,
Dimitrios

On paper Pulsar looks like _exactly_ what I would like. Semi-open format so
third parties can compete. Cool effects with step sequencers and filters
and such, not just a bunch of power ballad reverb plugs. GREAT sounding synths,
works in VST hosts. I mean, it could be called the 'Hey Thad!" card. But
I was _scarred_ setting one up a long time ago, and that was for a magazine
review and I was getting red carpet support. I'm building a core duo or quad
Intel machine soon and I'm going to try to shoehorn that same card into a
super new mobo with a UAD on the same PCI bus? When I couldn't get it to
work on the legendarily exotic 440BX chipset? My debit card still gets itchy
when I'm on Novamusik and see the Pulsar gear but then I remember what I
went through with it.
