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 !
