It will mix 4 mono inputs into one for 24.99 $ each ! So if you need to to pass 4 auxes from two (up to 4) mecs into 4 headphone sends then 4 little devices for 100 $. I will definetely go that way. Regards, DimitriosNice little drum loop package with 100% of the money going to Habitat for Humanity. PeteDue to cumulative dither noise which I am hearing in the tails of my bounced tracks before I fade them, I have been considering removing the dither plugins from my Cubase channels that are handling the quantization noise from Cubase SX as the channels are individually truncated from 32bit to 20 bit when they leave the SX environment and travel throught the Paris 20bit ADAT channels for summing in Paris. My ears will be the final judge of this and I don't have time to do a lot of critical listening/experimenting with this right now, but I'm just wondering, *in theory*, would the cumulative quantization noise that would result from the truncation of, say 20 + tracks, be offset by one final dither of the bounced mix? I'm leaving town tomorrow, but willbe glad to be tyhe guinea pig on this when I return next week sometime. I'm just wondering if anyone has already tried this or wants to hazard a guess based on the science behind it?

That's right. I'm tracking in Paris at 24 bit, converting the .paf's to ..wav, then importing them to a Cubase Mix, processing them at 32 bit, the squeezing them back through a bunch of Paris 20bit lightpipe inputs to be summed there.

Can't say I didn't try. Over and out.Hmmmmm..........well........OK............I saw that you asked a lot of questions about what you should do. Looks like you haven't made up your mind about which direction you should go. Looks like you've got a lot of ideas and options. I posted up what I'm doing in a thread titled *For you guys who are looking to sync paris.....yadda yadda*......... The ADC in Cubase is nice. There are latency issues using analog gear with Paris.......not big insurmountable issues, but little 1.5ms issues. There are some issues using SX and Paris too and there is some specific hardware that works for this really well. If you check the attachment to my post, the gear you see there will work. I know this for a fact. It's easy to dig a moneypit expsertimeting until you find the right combination of stuff. If you want to shoot the breeze about this, e-mail me at animix@animas.net. I'll be back in town toward the end of next week and might be able to help you point yourself in the right direction. If you want to search my posts, there is a lot of info there about using Paris in tandem with a native DAW. Gene Lennon is doing this too. and............. I'm always in need of help so you pegged it pretty well. ;O) "Joey B." <joeybeebad@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:4323a379@linux... > Well, I guess this click is to tight to include my lame questions, but > seriously, I started reading some of the threads in this group and now I > realize it's not ME that needs the help. > > Can't say I didn't try. > > Over and out. > >OK........here goes........ ..

Chuck Duffy started this in , if this feeble mind may recall, back in Jan 98 ( Chuck please correct me if I'm wrong ) During that time , something amazing was going on. ENSONIQ made something that really sounded Different, and to all of us - once we heard it , we were hooked. I did my first session in Nov 97 with Paris and it Spanked in a major way everything else out there. Everything. Since that time , all of you used your own ears to come to this conclusion. This brotherhood was founded on the sonic excellence of PARIS. There are really so many talented and helpful people here its astounding. This newsgroup has a totally different vibe than any other audio related group. In the Spirit of finding incredible sounding gear for the price, I've found something that I believe fits the bill. SE Microphones. http://www.seelectronics.com/whatsnew.html SE mics is an American Company * Story to post later * Many of you may recall when I found the Studio Projects C1 at Alan Hyatt's Joe Meek Booth. I found it by accident , My 9:30 namm appointment was late , as I waited in Hall E ( Cheap seats ) I went over to say Hi To Alan Hyatt ( Owner Joe MeeK ) I asked him whats new yadda yadda , he showed me the mic . I asked if I could hear it , we plugged it in :) I noticed Neumann's booth just feet away , I went over and asked if I could compare the U87 to this mic - the rest was history . I had my walkie talkies with me , I called Pete Leoni to come hear the mic ( Pete lived in Bay ST Louis east of new orleans ) He's alive and well, bay St Louis is gone. Pete Leoni bought that mic on the spot ( Serial# 1 ) he still has the mic I think ? unless Katrina took it. History is about to repeat itself .So I called up DJ on these SE Mics and asked him to give them a try . DJ being the best sport on the planet took me up on my offer . I'll let DJ chime in to share his experience. I work with a Local producer and asked him to do the same , Michael Patzig from Moomba records " The Gemini Smoked my Stephen Paul Modded U47 " No small Task. Michael Wrote /recorded and produced : http://www.livintrust.net ( *** Take the Blindfold Test *** ) In my humble opinion - These SE mics are really in the same league as most high end Mics, It's not just my opinion - Roger Nicholls has found the same. ( I have 24 bit files By Roger Comparing Telefunken U47, Sound Deluxe U95 ( Like Akg C12 ) to the Gemini. If anyone wishes to take the Blindfoldtest , I'll be happy to post or send the files. To date - Nobody has been able to pin the tail on the donkey :) The SE Gemini Dual Tube with Shockmount and Roadcase sells for $ 1249 One thing I've found about the PARIS group is We all seem to suffer from " Holy Grail Syndrome " We are wired to find the best way , and in DJ's case - Well ? is he short circuited or what ? < G > :) Sorry Deej - I could'nt resist !

We're leaving town in about an hour and I've gotta pack some stuff but yeah......I'd say these mics are major stuff. The Gemini is built like a tank. The first thing I noticed about it was it's low noise floor and high output. this provides a lot of low level detail. With femme vocalists with the sweet whispery Allison Krause Kinda' voice, it's great, .plus, it's got a very smooth, clear midrange that handles honky male vocalists.with ease. I've got two of the Mojave's here that are now selling for $1000.00 through Royer Labs. Very similar in sound in some ways, with the SE taking the lead in the area of low level detail. Those two tubes give it a lot of verstaility because they can be switched, plus since it uses a tube instead of an output transformer, it's got the same heavy cojones in the low end, but it sound very open at the seme time......plus, it will keep your house warm this winter. I'm also liking the Titan. It's a dual diaphgram multipattern mic that can be used in cardioid pattern without getting that midrange honky resonance that some dual diaphgram mics (like the U87 ) have. Very detailed. May be one of the best mics I've ever put in front of a mandolin to catch that woody midrange. I've compared it to a U87 and a 4050 here. It's cleaner sounding than the U87 and more open sounding than the 4050. The U87 sounds much midrangier (is that a word????......anyway, it's typical, to my ears of U87) and the 4050 sounds very dark by comparison. The signature characteristic of both of these is *big, open and detailed* to my ears, without sound overly bright or brittle. They pass the car keys test with flying colors.............plus, you can heat your house this winter with the Gemini ;o) I'd say these are both definitely worth a listen if you're looking for mics and I'd be interested in the opinions of others here myself. ;o) "Morgan" <morganp@ntplx.net> wrote in message news:43241f2a$1@linux... > Greetings :) > > This community never ceases to amaze me - really :) > Many of you may recall the humble beginnings of this > group way back when.

Sakis is in the middle of travels, but indicated he is coming to AES and wants to dine with us. I don't know if he has other plans for Friday, but I am assuming not. For my part, I am only coming up for the day and am flexible if it is either Friday or Saturday. I plan to take the train to New York in the morning, catch the expo in the afternoon, dine with the Parisians, then train home to Baltimore. I think there are more likely AES activities being planned for Saturday, so Friday makes more sense to me, however, I see that the Gearslutz forum is planning a dinner event for Friday. Will that conflict with any Paris people? I could use a ticket to the expo, Morgan, and will email you about this. Thanks for your offer. I look forward to another fun Paris get together this year. Hope we can draw in more than last time, but whoever attends will have a fine time, GA-ROHN-TEED! - Paul Artola Ellicott City, Maryland On Sun, 11 Sep 2005 07:17:01 -0400, Morgan <morganp@ntplx.net> wrote: >Greetings :) > >Anyone needing AES Passes for this - Please let me know. >I think we are tyring to hook up a PARIS Dinner as well >for Friday night.

Then you Liberals preach tolerance, isn't that convenient. What if some body else here kicked it up a notch and posted a poll on the NG like: Poll: Who is the dumbest Nigger on the newsgroup? What if they put your name on the list? How would you feel? I'll bet it would start a bunch of shit, wouldn't it? So why do you think it's OK to post what you did?
