Anyone besides Dimitrios ever use a Sync Plate with Paris? [message #99465]

I thought that Aaron and maybe one other person had used
this hardware in this group. I am hoping to achieve sample
accurate sync using Paris as a master to Cubase 4.2 using
a Scope Pro card with an attached Sync Plate. All
of this needs to happen in XP on one computer. The
comp is the least of my worries.

Dimitrios says it can be done but we're having trouble
communicating. Maybe to this thread he will be able to?

Does XP rule this out or does Dimitrios know something
that will work? I thought the ADAT sync ports on a MEC adat
module were a no go in XP. I've never tried them to date.
I understand that Sync Plate/Scope and Cubase 4.2 both support
ASIO positioning protocol. The Sync Plate has WC in/out and
ADAT sync 9 pin in/out.

Any info you can give me may help. I'd like to snag a Sync Plate
before my comp comes if it's an achievable goal.

Thanks,
Tom

Sorry man, I have 3 Scope cards but opted out on the sync plate. I use a
combo of SMPTE/MTC and Adat lightpipe sync to do so.

Aaron,

So lightpipe is enough to keep the timing sample accurate?

I'm doing that now with SMPTE to MTC and adat lightpipe.
I doubt that it is that tight though.

it's not sample accurate, but it's fine for what I'm doing with it.. which
is to dump prebuilt synth stuff. Odd as it may seem, I find that I actually
like the slop brought on my synth/sequencer parts. More human and random.

Aaron,

I hear ya there. I've been doing it like that since 1991 with my Amiga.
SMPTE has been good enough and stable as can be.

I am just trying to prepare for the future with Cubase and Scope becoming
the mothership.

Thanks for the info.

Aaron,

Turns out Dimitrios says this is going to work so I'm
picking up a Sync Plate and try it. Chris Ludwig says
the quadcore this is going in is also going to be overclocked
from 2.6- 3.2 . Oh boy!

Can't wait.

I used the Creamware syncplate to slave Cubase to Paris. It should work just
fine. Just run a serial cable from the Paris ADAT sync port out to the sync
plate sync port input, set the Creamware hardware to ADAT sync and you should
be good to go as long as there's no other wierd voodoo going on between Cubase
and Paris and Paris and Cubase and the proprietary drives of two different
DSP platforms and multiple core CPU's and Paris on Windows XP........???

When I did it I was running two different DAWs and Paris was running on Win
ME.

Deej,

Ya, ME is not me. This will be XP.
Dimitrios still says it works. I can say that it most
definitely does not work with an ADAT machine.

I'm on the fence because it's not mandatory with the way
I work to be sample accurate. Someday maybe though.

Thanks for your input.

HI Tom,
Who knows maybe it will work with both Paris and the EDS hardware being
forced to run on a single CPU. makes the C16 work.
