Edna,
SPDIF carries it's own imbedded clock signal. You can, in theory, set Paris
to receive *digital* clock in the Paris control panel, and it *should* sync
to the spdif output of another device which is feeding it's signal to the
Paris spdif input. This won't lock up the timelines of two DAWs, (only ADAT
or midi sync will do this) but if you're just inputting audio into PARIS via
spdif, it *should* prevent timing errors like clicks and pops.

OK, I get what you are doing. First I should clarify: there are 2 kinds of
sync here. There is wordclock, which locks the digital clocks for accurate
transfer of audio, then there is play/stop sync, which moves the
DAW/sequencer play line. The first one is carried by either a wordclock
cable (best), or embedded in the spdif or ADAT lightpipe digital stream
(OK). The second one can be from MIDI timecode via a MIDI cable (OK), or if
you have it, a 9 pin ADAT sync cable (very accurate) (or a few other ways,
but we won't worry about those now).
If you are moving VSTi audio tracks from a sequencer into Paris, or just
want them to play along with Paris, you should do fine with MIDI timecode
for the sync and spdif for the audio (2 tracks at a time). I would recommend
that approach - someone else who still uses Paris correct me if I am wrong.

Deej,
Yeah, I'm hip to that (I bought 3 ADATs practically the week they came out).
My point was that it is no better than spdif unless you need to lock up
ADATs to Paris (something I never enjoyed doing!)
Best,
Bill

So what are the few other ways?
Been wanting to do the sync tighter than MTC but wondering what other
options could be explored (running Paris and Cubase SX3).

Understood. This reminds me that I still have to do some ADAT transfers for
a project......ugh!
I'm not too crazy about this either.

Hey Jeff, thiose other options I was referring to are for other types of
systems - not for a sequencer. Sorry! Your best bet for tight sync might be
ADAT sync, but you would need an ADAT card in a MEC and an ADAT compatible
sound card like the RME 9652.

I checked with Creative and they said the 0404 doesnt support adat sync, so
I may look for the 1212. It does have different converters than the 0404,
so probably wont sound the same. It seems to be a good price for the
features.
Thanks,
Edna

Hi Edna,
None of the EMU cards support ADAT Time code sync. They do have a poorly
implemented ADAT clock sync ability though. Don't confuse digital audio
clock with time code clock sync.
The Frontier Designs Dakota, RME HDSP9652 and Digi9652 are the only
cards that have built in ADAT Time sync. But none are cheap and none
have analog I/O only ADAT.
The best cheap sound card from the description of what you need would
seem to be the M-Audio Audiophile 2496 PCI card. It's 99.00 has rca
analog RCA and stereo SPDIF and Midi I/O.
If you are going into Paris's SPDIF connection then it really doesn't
matter how the built analog sound sense you will be listening to Paris's
converters.
You can use the Midi if you need to sync the time code between the 2
machines.
There are tighter time code syncs possible but then you have to spend
allot more money.

Hi Chris, thanks for the response. Yes, I was thinking I could use MIDI
sync for timelines. Have no idea of how "tight" it is or needs to be? I
understand that the 9-pin ADAT sync would be the tightest. A LynxOne card I
just missed went for $157 on Ebay. Something like this I could swing. I
may have uses other than just into PARIS, so I would like to have something
that sounds good as well. It seems a number of folks have had problems with
Dakota and PARIS, so I havent been looking at this one. If I had the $$,
RME Multiface would be it. For cheap, the Audiophile does seem to offer a
lot. Does the EMU 1212 have decent MIDI sync?
thanks,
Edna

Hi Edna,
The Multiface dos not have the ADAT Sync option on it. Neither do any of
the Lynx cards. So in that respect they would be now better than the
audiophile. The midi time code sync on any of the cards are fine. I
didn't see what audio app you will be using to do this along with Paris.
The timing issues will be caused by these apps more than the hardware.
Cubase 3 and Sonar 5 both seem to having pretty tight timing from what
I've experienced. Cubase 1/2 and the earlier Sonar version all have had
their of troubles but could usually be tweaked to work well.
Personally I would see if you can find a used HDSP9652 or
Digiface/HDSPPCI card on ebay. Well worth the money for when you will
eventually shit can Paris for something different. :)

I see. I'm still looking at audio apps, considering Cubase SX3 or
Samplitude at present. I've heard quite a few folks comment on how good Sam
sounds. Also, as far as the soundcard is concerned, I was also looking for
an inexpensive way to get 24-bit A/D into PARIS when desired, w/o having to
spring for the 8-in PARIS card. Thanks again for the help.

Hi Edna.
Check ou the RME DIgiface. great unit,has ADat & midi time sync. Plus you
can monitor thru the stereo headphone jack.
