I'll still buy a demo unit from you - only condition is that
you'd better get Chuck to OK that I get at least a full 50% off
your normal street prices on all demos...

....gotta make up for the losses in shipping & repair charges
SOMEHOW!

;)

I'm using Nuendo, (extremely Happy), and I also have M-Audio Pro Tools which
I rea rly use and do not like one little bit.
I'm using the M-Audio MixControll with Nuendo and it's more stable than with
PT on an Intel core 2 duo 6600 with 2gb ram

Moved on several years ago. I never really heard the "Paris sound" like
many others. At least it was not the big wow factor for me. Maybe
because I came to Paris from a pretty hip analog system. I do think it
was ahead of its time in affordable digital sound quality and power of
features. And has the best news group around by far.

I use SX4 and Sam now.

Still using paris here with ua2192 conversion as main tracking
and mixing.(oh i also have logic/motu 2408mk3)Paris reminds
me of my rcently acquired marshall 1968 plexi;not a lot of
features but just a lot of great tone/vibe.

Hi Brad,

Paris user since '97. Small system in a home studio.
1 MEC 2 - 8 in's
2 EDS cards
1 C16
DAC1 and Big Ben just purchased from Sweetwater (Paul Rowan)

I'm checking the FS site often to double my size and/or give me a back up
system.

I've produced/engineered and played on 5 CDs for singer/songwriters in the
Las Vegas area.

Wayne

Neil how do you like the Gateway? Can you post the model number. It would
be great to find an off the shelf...

Thanks

I have two systems still running Paris (one used stricly for tracking full
bands in another room) and other for mixing.

I have SX3 also but keep going back to Paris as it tracks so well and I never
(knock on wood) have any issues with either system (both win 98). If MIDI
is not needed Paris just works, and is so easy to use that I have trouble
finding a really good reason to switch. But I do not do this for a living
so my ears and chops are not near as good as some here....
