Dimitrios BitzenisFor those of us who never got to see what a fully "skinned" PARIS looks like, Mike Yanoska has graciously sent me some screenshots which are now on display here: http://www.kerrygalloway.com/WikiPARIS/wikka.php?wakka=Paris Skins _Very_ cool! Pretty inspiring, actually, the idea of keeping different copies of the .exe on hand to boot into different "looks". Tempts me to try my (unskilled) hand at skinning PARIS so it looks like a Neve or an SSL. :DI'm In.

Dimitrios Bitzenis http://www.kerrygalloway.com/WikiPARIS/wikka.php?wakka=Nativ eLatencyDatabase There's a decent start there, composed of efforts of Dimitrios' I've found, plus the official WAVES latency specs. The term "database" is actually technically incorrect at the moment; it's currently just a text list. The name reflects my intention to build it into an actual user-contributable, searchable database - just as soon as I decide/figure out how to do that. For now, if you want to add a plugin that's not on the list - assuming you are logged in to the Wiki, just doubleclick on the page to open the editor and add the plugin to the bottom of the page as text, using something along the lines of the following format - PLUGIN NAME / [TAB] / LATENCY IN SAMPLES; just bring info and I'll take care of tidying it if needed. Please contribute more as you find them! - KerryHey guys, just wanted to check in and say hello to my Paris buddies. It has been quite some time since I last posted.

Other things to kill are serial/LPT ports, USB and onboard audio if you're planning on loading the PCI slots. If you're not using networking, kill that also in the BIOS. These are not 'have to' things, but with 6 PCI slots I bet there's a lot of PCI sharing going on.... and that can mean troubles.

description: ctly FaderWorks is more like a sophisticated series of automatically calculated delays - everything's still going to audibly shift to the right in relation to waveforms and previously-laid-in automation every time you put a plugin on it. You'll watch the waveform go by and then hear the kick it crawled over a second later - it's just going to automate the process of calculating that and keeping sample-accurate relationship to the other tracks. This in itself is a Very Good Thing - but all it's going to do is move everything later in time against the automation grid *together* in an *automated* and *organized* way. I would be *so* delighted to hear I'm wrong on this. But my mind would be boggled to hear that Vertex figured out a way to give the VST slots a peek at audio far enough in advance of its arrival so that they could pass on, say, a one-second-delayed compressed kick at the time the Now Line hit it. - k On 4/25/08 4:49 PM, in article 481270c8@linux, "Aaron Allen" <know-spam@not_here.dude> wrote: > This is why I pulled my UAD card out and put it back in the static bag/box. > The latency was just an automation killer, even though I loved the sound of > it.

What the hell. I'm switching to XP anyway. pabHmmmm... That would be insanely cool. Problem is - I don't think it's going to give *true* PDC, for this reason: VST plugs can only play a sample as the Now Line crawls over it; they have no idea what the next sample's going to be.

description: room mic on drums because I liked the slightly more distant sound. I used the Deej mic on acoustic guitars because I liked the 'closer' sound. Again, I'm probably not doing a good job describing here. The mics sounded different enough that I decided not to use them as overheads, and I _really_ wanted to use them. I wound up using NT-5s and they sound like crap. I think the drums on this CD are just going to suck, which is sad. The songs are good, the playing is good, the other sounds are good, but the drums just blow. Anyway, next time I'll have Claytorbuilt mics as overheads and on the toms, and the drums will kick booty.
