Hi All,
I want to thank everyone who has supported my efforts with the PARIS plugins.
20 People have donated over 10 plugins. My plan is to do at least 3 more
before turning my attention to the driver.
I also hope top start releasing Mac plugins as soon as possible. With any
luck, that will be within a month.
I really hope these have meant something to people. I've had a great time
working on them, and they really are a dream come true for me - both having
them and making them.
The Amp was the hardest one yet. took probably around 75 hours to finish,
and it built on countless hours learning about the plugins before. It's
still got me wondering why a MOV command from main memory into a register
done by the logic unit is 4 times as loud (2 bits offset) as compared to
the same MOV command by the Math unit. That lead to a mean bug that took
forever to track down.
Anyway, it just doesn't feel right spending that kind of time and watching
dozens and dozens of copies get downloaded when only 6 people cared enough
to pay anything for it. And of those 6, one person doesn't own PARIS anymore,
and another is waiting for a Mac version. So, of all the people who downloaded
and hopefully used the code, only 4 people gave anything for it.
Anyway, the download links are gone. You can still pay anything you want
- there are no set prices. But, access to the code will require sending
"something." If this upsets anyone, I apologize. I probably set myself
up for this. I can be a bit naive.
All the best,
Mike

Hey Mike! Money is tight right now, but I will send you some money when I
can. I will also send you Code Worrier for Mac when I find it.
It is too bad so many have left Paris. it might be a whole new ball game
if EP released new versions of Paris. Oh well.
Mike, I really appreciate you efforts!

Hi James,
Thanks for posting. Thanks also for the Code Warrior. I corresponded with
Chuck today, so I think we'll be in business with Mac plugins really soon.
That is, if in compiling them isn't a huge learning curve.
I don't mean to get pissy about things, and it's not really just about the
money. It's that I slave over a hot computer for days, and the vast majority
of people who take the software don't even say thank you.
On the other hand, others have been very generous and encouraging. I appreciate
them very much.
As for our numbers, I think there are almost as many of us as there have
always been. It's just different people all the time. Someone jumps ship,
and someone new buys their old rig. If how my web traffic spikes when I
release a new plugin is any indication, there are lots of us.
Anyway, I'm sure I'll feel better about things in the morning. I'm pretty
stoked about getting the DP/Pro reverbs finished. I just want to hear them.
All the best,
Mike

Hey Mike, I have downloaded a single plugin as of yet. I plan to in the near
future, when I move my Paris rig over to our main studio. When, I do, I'll
also give an deserving amount to this cause.. Keep up the great work..
P.S.
I have a DP4 & Pro and would love to have a few of those Hall reverb presets.

I'm in Denmark right now, without Paris but with Cubase 4. Much easier to
transport. Will be here about 3 months, so more donations will follow up
when I'm back in Norway.
Take care

Mike, I haven't downloaded any of these newer plug-ins. But I believe you
should make it a requirement to pay something for downloading them. Heck why
not even set a minimum price so that you are rewarded properly for all of
your efforts. I seem to remember paying around $50 smackaroos for NoLimit
and it was well worth it. It's just human nature to want to get something
for nothing, especially if you set it up that way, but I'll tell you
brother, nothing is free, except maybe air.

Hi Lamont,
I have a DP/4, and I like the hall reverb in it far more than the hall in
my Lexicon MPX1. It's just smoother, while the MPX1 has some grain to it.
As long as work isn't too busy - and the algo doesn't end up as much trouble
as the amp was - it shouldn't take me too long. I've got the .h file done.
The .cpp file and the .ini should come quickly.
I agree that the donation system is too tempting for some. I would prefer
to keep the pricing flexible. I don't want to deprive anyone of these plugins
if they can use them. I just don't want to feel taken advantage of.
Let me know what you think of the plugs when you get to using them. Feedback
is appreciated. :)
All the best,
Mike

Hi Rich,
I think I just replied to you while replying to Lamont. I must not have
had any coffee yet. :)
I'd like to keep the pricing flexible because some people are truly broke.
I want everyone who can use a copy of these to have them. I just don't
want to feel taken advantage of. Having 50+ copies downloaded with almost
no comments of what people thought of them and very few donations felt kind
of shitty. I know people are busy and don't have time necessarily to look
at things right away. But I'll be honest, if it weren't for the few people
who have been supportive and given me feedback on things, I probably would
have stopped posting these.
I did some comparisons between the simalog JCM900 VST plugin, and I actually
prefer the simalog. But, I'll still use this plug at least to have a sound
while tracking, and also to add texture by varying the guitar sounds. It's
also got a really nice clean sound now. It is very useful to me.
All the best,
Mike

You're a good guy Mike. You must have had your coffee by now. I know where
you're coming from, your heart. But you can still be a good person and
expect users of your creation to pay for your toil and dedication, unless
you don't need the money :-) We all appreciate your efforts and frankly I'm
impressed that skunkworks and you are still busy writing code for the
platform. I just wish Edmond would wake up and start writing a new version
of Paris. That would really help us out. But Paris still rocks.

Hi Mike,
I'm sorry, I just haven't had a chance yet to try them out. I appreciate
your work! Be assured that if I use them, payment will be forthcoming..

it might help if I actually type something!
Mike, I really appreciate your efforts on the plugs. I have download all
of them, but, and this is the truth, I havn't had time to load any of them
into my Paris comp yet. I fully intended to send you some dough once I loaded
them in, but I'll send you some now. I'll get around to installing them eventually.
Thanks for all your hard work!

Hi Rich,
Thanks for your kind words! This is a really new experience for me. I've
used the simalog plugins for years, and I never thanked the guy who wrote
those. I sent him an email this morning.
For me, I toil over them forever, and then get really excited to get them
out into the world, and it's just such a letdown when after weeks of work,
you get it out and there are zillion posts about other systems, politics,
whatever, and a new, real-time PARIS amp plugin gets almost no comment or
response. It feels like I made a huge dinner, lots of people came and ate,
but almost no one thanked the cook.
Anyway, I'll just have to grow some thicker skin, I think.
Cheers,
Mike

Hey Mike,
I have joyfully downloaded all of your work and tried to be
fair with my contributions each time. I am sorry to not have
commented on your amp plugin as of yet. I have not had a chance
to load it much less try it. I'm excited just the same!
Needless to say your work is keeping me motivated about my continued
success with Paris. I look forward to all of your releases and will =
gladly
contribute as usual. I have a couple buds that will probably be =
downloading=20
and contributing also.
Tom

Hi Tom,
You've always made me feel that you were as excited about this stuff as I
am, and I am so glad for that.
Don't worry about a thing.
I certainly don't want to make you feel that any angst I've experienced is
because of you. Quite the opposite.
All the best,
Mike

Mike, I have downloaded your plugs (not the amp so far) 3 times--once to
my home computer which died and then a second time to my replacement, and
once to my office computer--so that ups the download count. I did contribute
twice however, and will again this week when I download the amp model.
I still have yet to install them, so I have not posted about them, and I
will as soon as I can, and your post is an incentive to get them loaded.
Please know you are appreciated here regardless :)
Keep up the good work!

Mike same here - have not installed them yet - playing out on weekends so
not much time for recording as of late. Once I get a chance to install
and check them out I'll leave feedback and donate no problem (I'll donate
before then). I bought the skunkworks stuff and the DVD and really really
thank you and the others for keeping this things moving.
I have even turned another person on to Paris who has been doing some great
stuff with it so Paris is being used!! Thanks again!!

Hi Rich,
Thanks for posting. I'm sorry I threw such a fit. I can get emotional.
I look forward to hearing what you think of the plugs!
All the best,
Mike
