ANNOUNCEMENT: This thread dates from May, 2008. Since then, Mike Audet has addressed many facets of PARIS' drivers and is working on ASIO drivers again (more details on current ASIO driver development available here). Short form - we're getting basically all our wishes (and from inside the community! Very Happy) so this thread is now locked and you can come contribute to this new one instead.

Set aside the "it's not going to happen" stuff for now. For the sake of this
hypothetical, let's just assume there were a chance.

For our hypothetical, let's further assume the following:

1) WinXP for sure. Support for earlier OS' unknown. No Mac OS9 support.

2) All I/Os accessible - including all MEC expansion cards. Let's assume the
goal would be that the driver could utilize all the same I/Os the PARIS app
would.

3) 16 and 24 bit; 44.1k and 48k. Unimpaired sound quality.

4) Stable and tested with all major platforms - REAPER, Ableton, Cubase,
Nuendo etc - with full I/O functionality

5) Highly skilled work

>>>

So with those assumptions in place - rate the importance to you of ASIO
drivers being created for PARIS - real ASIO drivers - on a scale of zero to
five, with zero being "not at all" and five being "yippee! The farm is
saved! My life is complete and I can finally die happy!".

This is undoubtedly obvious to state, but hey, I'm a bass player - we make
our livings stating completely obvious things. So with that in mind - this
question is obviously directed to *current PARIS users* - after all, if a
hundred people who sold their rigs answer "zero" it's not meaningful
information. The exception of course would be if such drivers might
influence you to reenter PARIS again. In that case, feel free to chime in
with your "5".

If you look at this question and say "I'm utterly thrilled by your
hypothetical, but I'm too busy to respond right now" - do find a second and
let us know you're a 5, lest your silence be mistakenly interpreted as
"zero".

I know the NG is a subset of PARIS users rather than the whole lot - and not
even all of that subset read it every day - but humour me, I'd like to get a
vague sense of the community desire for this. If you have any (non-negative)
comments to add, feel free.

Thanks in advance - Kerry

If the latency is right, a 5 here. I'd love to hook a native app into my
existing structure. Gimme Gimme!

Kerry,

Yes, in perfect working order with competitive latency ratings
I'd give it a 4. I'm not needing it right now but would support
the development and purchase it if it was available before I
bailed on Paris in it's end run.=20

If I could use it with low latency in CUbase, it'd be a 5 as well.

When having 2 MECsystems with 2 cards and mixers "on ice" in Norway, it
would be a pleasure to use the Mec's and mixers on major platforms with low
latency. So between 4 and 5, is it OK for your hypothetical question?

Definitely 5, if I could use Samplitude (my alternative DAW of choice at the
moment),
with existing hardware. Stability/latency would have to be
something akin to RME stuff.
Does this have something to do with a possible adaptation of
something like "asio 4 all", or a complete rewrite of the embryonic "ParisAsio"??

I _love_ those T-Mobile adds. We all knew Charles was a hoot but wholda thunk
D Wade had that charisma?

I do _not_ love watching the grim, boring Spurs, or their classless clutch
of coaches.

I just had a thought (now THERE's a dangerous prospect!) - If the MECs all
have to interface w/ the computer thru the EDS cards, wouldn't an ASIO driver
have to be able to talk to the EDS cards? And mightn't some smart software
engineer be able to think of a way, while accessing the interfaces, to make
use of all that processing power on the EDS cards? Does that seem like a
totally stupid thought or a do-able thing?

Well, I have to say - If there's a way to begin using new software with my
existing setup with near-zero latency, dedicated processing for however many
channels of EDS you have installed and sound that approaches or surpasses
Paris with the ability to use all the new plugins (with automatic latency
compensation!?!?) then on a scale of 1 - 5 I'm in for at least a 10! I'd
LOVE to not have to rewire my studio for a new system!

I was thinking the same thing as I was driving down the road...maybe a
vst based wrapper that allowed the EDS environment to operate inside and
be able to insert inaudible markers on the input that could be measured
on the output for latency and autmatically adjust...

THe return of Franken computer in software!!

something here: I'm only inquiring about building a lifeboat right now, not
whether we can have Jello pudding on board :D

setting aside the "its not going to happen" stuff?

having true multi i/o asio drivers for the MECs would be
very cool. i have a lot of paris i/o flying around here,
always loved the way they sounded in all their ensoniq-ness
and would love to integrated that with my current setup.

I'd give it a 5. It's the neatest, easiest, and perhaps only way I will be
able to track to other apps and then export and mix in Paris without having
to rewire anything at all.

Obviously the cost saving in not having to buy another 20 or so A/D's makes
it worth some dollars to me as well. Assuming that it would cost less than
changing over my Paris hardware to another brand of ASIO supported I/O I
can't see that I could turn it down.

Cheers,
Kim.

I would give it a High "5"

I think it's a great idea, once again, if the latency issues can be addressed and solved. I would love to be able to run it on my SONAR 8.5 software.

Keep us up to date,

Heya MM - this thread will give more info on the current status of the ASIO driver project.

I know it's at the very top of Mike's PARIS priority list as of the last time we spoke. He's tackling it pretty much singlehandedly, and AFAIK it's just been a matter of being able to claw some free time for development.

Hi Kerry,

I'm just getting back into Paris. I'm sure that I and several people I know would be very interested in this. So I will give it a "5".

Hi folks - this thread got resurrected recently, so I just thought I'd let you all know that this thread was in fact started a year and a half ago while I was actively beating the bushes looking for external developers to resuscitate PARIS' drivers.

But that eaarly intention was soon pre-empted from *inside* the PARIS community. For those that don't know already, PARIS coder Mike Audet has been working on the PARIS drivers in his spare time over the past year and a half. He's already released a new set of PARIS drivers that don't merely enable use of PARIS on multicore computers, they remove some of the problems that were hampering ASIO - and now he's moved on to work on the ASIO drivers themselves. You'll find a status report in this thread.

So you'll be glad to hear that the votes in this thread for ASIO drivers have already been heard, and because of that I'm going to lock this thread to avoid any confusion about where we stand at the end of 2009. Please do feel free to contribute to that newer thread though!
