mix/best mastering" kind of combination and vote on it, "Aja" just might win. Freakin' GREAT sounds on every single instrument in there, as pertains to the genre being recorded, NOTHING comes across as abrasive, yet it's not so homogenized as to not grab your attention, either (we've all heard mixes like that, right?). Although, I must say "My Old School" rocks almost as hot in that same voting contest. :D (Yes, I'm currently in a Steely Dan mode - gotta get some breathing space from the numetal stuff i've been spending so much time on lately! lol) Roger Nichols gets most of the credit for all the Steely Dan stuff, but as I understand it, Elliot Scheiner really did most of the basic tracks recording & also the mixdowns, so maybe he's really the unsung hero here.

Pretty impressive. That's probably why you were drawn to it. ;o)I had a cassette of it years ago, then I just saw the CD in Walmart for $6.99 recently and picked it up again.

Stopped doing that. Damn thing makes almost anything sound good.... Genius stuff. DCHey guys, I'm wondering what you guys think of this product? Do you think there is a real market for this kind of guitar? Would you buy something like this? What do you think you would be willing to pay if the quality was good? Thanks for your opinions in advance. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=33016 9549217&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:12For the most, I'm using Adobe Audition 2, Nero 7 or PlexTools Professional(XL) on the different machines I have. Plextools need a Plextor burner and have plenty of things to control the burning, both before and after. Really love it when the aftercontroll can tell me how fair/faulty the burnings are in different ways and can print out documentation to follow a burned CD-project.

There really isn't any need for then at all on the consumer system. PCI-X slots will be around for a few more years on the server market till the PCI-e spec is completely independent from the PCI bridge technology. There are still allot of PCI-x network and drive controller cards available compared to PCI-e. Until then PCI-e devices are all over the map in performance. Something like a RME MADI or Apogee card and some of the high end HD video capture/playback cards really push the the limits of PCI-e slots right now. But they are some of the only devices that do. USB 3.0, Fire wire 3.2 devices will easily replace the need for PCI slots. Fire wire already replaces the need for many devices already. What I hope this time around the requirement for stricter compliance for the chip set manufacturers. Or just make so that only Texas Instruments can make firewire and NEC can make USB but thats not very "competitive". PC and MACs are both victims of shitty Fire wire chip sets.

It's really just in its infancy. Once they can remove it from the PCI bridging method that they current have to do now you will start to see it potential. Thats gonna be a while though.

It is a fully functioning version with no restrictions except it can't import WAV (or other ) sound files and it has a 2Gig subset of the complete library. Based on "Culture" and some of the Yellow Tools Giga samples I have used it should be well worth the slow downloads. http://www.yellowtools.us/cp21/cms/index.php?id=399&show news=527 GeneMaking a record like Aja is a lot of concentration and work. Maybe they just got lazy. I used to have that cassette and for about a year it was the only thing I had in my car. It is awesome. My old school totally rocks too.

There's even one that will switch tunings for you wht the flip of a modeling switch (I think it's the Fender Strat version, IIRC). Yep, only reason to have a doubleneck onstage these days would be for the visual thang. Neil "John" <no@no.com> wrote: > >Unfortunately the weight and size will limit your market a lot.

I think double necked guitars are awkward and I doubt I'll ever get one. I get a wide range of tones out of my PRS, with just one neck. Parker Fly, some Ibanez models and Carvins, even a fat strat can cover a lot of tonal ground without the extra weight and hassles of a double neck instrument. I can get an even wider range of tones with my Variax, and instant alternate tunings. Roland has their VG line that works with any guitar with a hex pickup to provide that sort of thing as well. I like the Variax better than Rolands earlier models, overall, but I haven't heard Roland's latest VG99 which is still, I think, about to ship.

To me it has the best feature set and fast work flow of any editor/Mastering program. There are some many awesome things it can do it pisses me off that they don't have a demo download so you can see. arrrghhh I would suggest downloading the manual and read the Audio Montage section to see the similarities to CD Architect. ftp://ftp.steinberg.net/Download/WaveLab_6/Docs_English/Wave Lab.pdf After looking thru the manual check out the feature comparison between the different flavors of WL to see which one will be best for you.

Most guys who find the need for both Tele and LP sounds revel in the coolness of having two or three or more guitars onstage and (if their really cool) a guitar tech to hand the right guitar, perfectly in tune) to them at the right moment. Guys like me (journeyman hacks) tend to favor one guitar with trick wiring that can emulate both sounds. More open-minded guys find the solution in the Roland and Line 6 modeling systems. I have a PRS (w/ trick wiring, but not so much for Tele sounds) and a very nice Tele clone and I have been known to take both to gigs. I'm getting too old to carry all that gear around (I also drag a tube amp and 2-12 cabinet around a lot of the time) but I don't play often these days and I just like playing my guitars! Another problem w/ the 2 neck idea for me: The right and left hand geometry is pretty critical for me to play my best 9such as it is) and the 2 neck idea forces the player to choose between having one right and the other too high or low or compromising on and in between height. I woudn't want to deal with that. It also looks to heavy for me... Gantt "James McCloskey" <excelsm@hotmail.com> wrote: > >Hey guys, I'm wondering what you guys think of this product?

I played that album(Still own today) everyday ftom the moment I got it(15 years old). What amazed me was that I could not figure ou the chords. At that time, I had prided myself, on being able to comp any chord I heard. Threw me for a complete loop. My ego was quickly put into check. But, it made me strive to become a more rounded musician. It to me 5 years to finally play the intro to Decond Blues (20years old). Once you figure out deacon blues, the rest of the album ell into place. Next up Peg, Black Cow and so on. Being schooled in Jazz at the time, Aja spoke to a lot us who were being mentored by the bebop cats, that You can put a new spin on Jazz. Revoice the chords, and play some very inspired, yet very imporvised solos to boot. I'm an offcial Aja junkie and very porud of it because it rasied the my game..

For you guys who use 88.2 a lot, I have a question. I need to be able to switch sample rates between projects while not having to physicaly repatch any gear. I'll be using a MADI PCI/ADI 648 but I'm sure the S/MUX would apply to an HDSP series card of any type.. When changing from a 44.1 KHz projects to a 88.2 KHz projects do the HDSP I/O channels reconfigure as follows??: ADAT I/O 1 channels 1 & 2 combine to create channel 1 channels 3 & 4 combine to create channel 2 channels 5 & 6 combine to create channel 3 channels 7 & 8 combine to create channel 4 ADAT 1/O 2 channels 9 & 10 combine to create channel 5 channels 11 & 12 combine to create channel 6 channels 13 & 14 combine to create channel 7 channels 15 & 16 combine to create channel 8 or is it..... ADAT I/O 1 channels 1 & 3 combine to create channel 1 channels 2 & 4 combine to create channel 2 channels 5 & 7 combine to create channel 3 channels 6 & 8 combine to create channel 4 ADAT 1/O 2 channels 9 & 11 combine to create channel 5 channels 10 & 12 combine to create channel 6 channels 13 & 15 combine to create channel 7 channels 14 & 16 combine to create channel 8 or is it ADAT I/O channels 1 & 2 combine with ADAT I/O 9 & 10 to create channel 1 & 2 ADAT I/O channels 3 & 4 combine with ADAT I/O 11 & 12 to create channel 3 & 4 ADAT I/O channels 5 & 6 combine with ADAT I/O 13 & 14 to create channel 5 & 6 ADAT I/O channels 7 & 8 combine with ADAT I/O 15 & 16 to create channel 7 & 8 I just need to know ahead of time before I jump into this. I'm going to be having to do this install without any assistance and I don't want to spend a whole day getting this wired in and then end up with a total cluster**** in my signal routing.I think it's simply that 5, 6, 7 & 8 drop off when at 88.2. IOW, on my Multifascia, when at 88.2 and selecting an input from lightpipe, channel 2 is still channel 2, 3 is still 3, and 4 is still 4 - there's just no 5-8. It's just a matter of each channel taking up twice the bandwidth.

You won't need to repatch anything when switching from an 88.2k project to a 44.1k project, channels 5-8 on each lightpipe just won't exist at 88.2k Neil "DJ" <animix _ at _ animas _ dot _ net> wrote: >I understand, but does this mean that 5 is combining signals with 1, 6 with >2, 7 with 3 and 8 with 4?

Seriously, some might find it interesting. Personally, I find that most of the songs that I play are suited to either a single coil, humbucker, or P90-style pickup. Consequently, I take a strat/tele, my PRS Soapbar II, and some type of humbucker-equipped axe (LP, SG, ES-335, etc.) with me to every gig. My $ .02!

Also it will be more flexible if you have the MADI card be master if you are going to be switching sample rates allot. Did you ever find out if the used ADI-648 you got is a recent enough one to have the MIDI Remote support? It makes configuring the front panel very easy if the unit is not in arms/visual reach. Also don't forget that MADI's I/O is also cut in half at 88.2/96k like ADAT. So 32 channels instead of 64.

So 32 channels instead of 64. > > Chris I'm getting ready to wire up a lot of RME hardware. I'm configuring two DAWs Master/Slave, both running Cubase 4. In my Master DAW, I've got an AES 32/BOB, a MADI card, an ADI 648, an ADI4-DD, 2 x ADI 8-DD's and 2 x ADI 8-DS units. In the slave DAW I'm running a Multiface PCI. 4 x stereo channels of the AES 32 will be interfacing with the ADI 8-DD units and the AES I/O of 4 x outboard reverb/multiFX processors which will down/upsampled for use as send/FX in Cubase by using the ADI 8-DD units. The other 4 x AES 32 channels will be interfacing with converters and processors that are 88.2KHz capable. As for the MADI/ADI 648, what I would like to accomplish is this: ADAT 1 I/O patched to the ADI 4-DD Channel 1 & 2 input of the ADI 4-DD receiving the S/PDIF output from the Multiface slave unit Channel 1 & 2 output of the ADI 4-Dd unit sending the stereo output of the DAW to a Benchmark DAC-1 ADI 4-DD I/O 3 & 4 not used because they will be combined with Channels 1 & 2 of the ADI 4-DD when used at 88.2 sample rates-correct? ADI 4-DD I/O 5 & 6 patched into a Mytek Stereo AD/DA units ADI 4-DD I/O 7 & 8 not used because they will be combined with Channels 5 & 6 of the ADI 4-DD when used at 88.2 sample rates-correct? ADAT 2 I/O patched to the ADAT I/O of the Multiface Slave, which when running both DAWs at 88.2KHz. I just want to be sure that, when configured in this manner and using 88.2 sample rates on the master and slave DAWS, the various devices would show up in Totalmix and Cubase VST I/O as follows: HDSP MADI 1 I/O would be left channel of ADI 4-DD channel 1 & 2 which are interfacing with the Slave DAW output L and the Benchmark DAC-1 input L HDSP MADI 2 I/O would be right channel of ADI 4-DD channel 1 & 2 which are interfacing with the Slave DAW output R and the Benchmark DAC-1 input R HDSP MADI 3 I/O would be left channel of ADI 4-DD channel 5 & 6 which are interfacing with the Mytek Stereo 96 AD/DA L HDSP MADI 4 I/O would be right channel of ADI 4-DD channel 5 & 6 which are interfacing with the Mytek Stereo 96 AD/DA R HDSP MADI 5 I/O would be left channel signal from Multiface ADAT I/O 1 & 2 on slave DAW HDSP MADI 6 I/O would be right channel signal from Multiface ADAT I/O 1 & 2 on slave DAW HDSP MADI 7 I/O would be left channel signal from Multiface ADAT I/O 3 & 4 on slave DAW HDSP MADI 8 I/O would be right channel signal from Multiface ADAT I/O 3 & 4 on slave DAW ........or, does ADAT 2 I/O just disappear when switching to 88.2KHz?

Unless I'm completely misunderstanding the SMUX protocol, what you would want to do for the portion anbove is to use channels 1 through 4 and not use 5-8. IOW, in the part where you say: ***ADI 4-DD I/O 5 & 6 patched into a Mytek Stereo AD/DA units*** Use 3&4 instead of 5&6... follow this pattern all the way through the rest of the gear & you should be OK. Chris, chime in - this is correct, yes? Deej, if you're not cure, you can always hook up ONE unit using 1&2 and 5&6, then flip over to 88.2k & see if 5&6 now show up on 3&4... I'm 99.9997% certain that's not the way it works, however. NeilI guess I could ask this another way....... If I connected three ADI4-DD units to ADAT ports 1, 2, and 3 and I set the clock rate to 88.2, would I get an AES stereo I/O on 1 & 2 and 5 & 6 of the AES input/output of each of the three ADI 4-DD units? thanks, Deej "DJ" <animix _ at _ animas _ dot _ net> wrote in message news:46fee642@linux... > > "Chris Ludwig" <chrisl@adkproaudio.com> wrote in message > news:46fecf15@linux... >> Hi DJ, >> Neil is correct in the way he describes it. >> Also it will be more flexible if you have the MADI card be master if you >> are going to be switching sample rates allot. >> Did you ever find out if the used ADI-648 you got is a recent enough one >> to have the MIDI Remote support? >> It makes configuring the front panel very easy if the unit is not in >> arms/visual reach. >> Also don't forget that MADI's I/O is also cut in half at 88.2/96k like >> ADAT.

I could use a BRC I suppose. The Steiny Systemline works nicely on two comps anyway. I've got everything sync'ed up to external WC and I can cycle through everything from 44.1 thru 96k and everything syncs up fine but I'm hearing no stereo output signal in cubase. I'm sure this is due to the ADI 648 routing matrix being scrambled. Time to RTFM to get my head around this. Lots to learn about this beast. I'm pretty stoked about it though. I think that I may have finally found an audio system that will make my bizarre and twisted dreams come true. We'll know more next week. The RME BOB that I need to interface with the AES 32 card hasn't arrived here yet.
