Always the bypassing of mains electrolytics gives a different sound. With the right caps more frequencies are revealed and you can shape the spectrum better. Almost always the 0.01uF reveals highs and 0.1 mids. 1uF reveals lows. In my Great River neither 0.1 or 0.01 did any difference but 1uF broght some bass response I needed. Note that I have Lundahl tranformers inside Great River MP which have great mids but lack somehow in bass. ADI-PRO8 mad a huge-hugest difference because I use the DA section for monitoring. I have never heard any RME sounding like ADI-PRO8 after the mod. What I did is changed the stock 4580 chips on channels 7,8 to LM6172 , bypassed the output cpacitors on 7,8 with Wima 0.01 and made a big mod on power supply. I changed mains capacitor from 50uF to 100uF and on separate circuit board I put as bypassers. 0.01 Wima, 0.047 Wima, 1uF Wima, 10uF electrolytic 105o Firstly I had a 0.1 instead of the new 0.047 but to correst some tinny boxiness in sound I put the 0.047 Beleive me the sound has a huge difference. A stock ADI-pro8 sounds warm (not much mids) and swett. The new ADI-PRO sound s right oin your face with mids, highs and bass, perfect imaging ,depth of space. For the above some elements must be taken into consideration. I have in my mains input just before voltage regulating with big polyester/polypropylene (wima) capacitors a 0.1 and 0.01. This is a well kept secret amoung big studios that have lectronics engineers in their stuff, regulation and filtering DON'T use commercial RF filters at all in your mains. They compress the sound and do not let the sound breath at all after some level. Now in Paris power supply this is a switching supply like ADI-PRO8 So bigger cap makes a difference (not very big) bypassed with 0.01 ( i did not like much 0.1 because gave me more boxy sound) 0.01 is magical for great high mids/highs. Ok I did not AB but I hear a difference on recorded tracks, remember I don;t use Paris DA for monitoring (SPDIF to PULSAR to ADI-PRO8) The rule is not much higher cap then needed sometimes higher mains cap is not needed i.e higher caps inside Great River made the sound SLOW ! 0.1 and 0.01 uf inside Great River MP made no difference !, but 1uF gave me some bass I needed (Great river has Lundahl transformers) I encourage inside Paris power supply to leave the 180uF stock capacitor and just put a WIMA MKP or FKP (or Multicap-Musicap-expensive)of a 0.01 uF value with at least ~250V as bypasser All the above were/are try and listen and I spent many hours in my life not writting music but instead experimenting. I am happy to share my knowledge and encourage to try and listen for yourself with any changes. Most of the times A/B was not needed because I mmediately heard any difference for the best or worse... If you are sometimes uncertain as what to put first and where try only the 0.01 Wima polypropylene bypassing the mains capacitors (electrolytics) Regards, Dimitrios "Dimitrios" <musurgio@otenet.gr> wrote: > >I achieved a sound closer to the high end converters using a little bigger >( I don't think -but may- made this difference) 220uF/400V instead of the >stock 180uf , I found same exactly branch but that does not matter as long >as you will use a good 105o deggrees electrolytic. >I bypassed with a WIMA 0.01 and it made a difference. >More mids revelaed from ad conversion. >I like what I hear. >Regards, >DimitriosI hear ya DJ. Our 13 year old Shepard dissapeared 10/15. She was just gone sparing us the saddness of finding her empty shell. Didn't look too hard for her in the woods, she choose her place and I'didn't want to dishonor that choice with a human burial. Perhaps she died with honor, in battle. GGreat story - thank you. Makes me think of my dog too - they pack so much into such a short life and always leave us wanting more.

According to news reports I have heard today, the riots have crossed into Germany and Belgium too. Weird that these guys are crowing about this stuff.

I've always been partial to Kurzweil samplers., Most of their stuff is pretty tasty to my ears but I don't know about the voice patches. The K2500R modules seem to be getting pretty affordable these days.

"Time Warp" from that CD is stoopidly smokin. And not just Brad, either.

I saw them last time through > here--lots of great playing and extended solos...The only way to do it on a track-by-track basis in Cakewalk is to solo the track you want, then export a mix. In the output dialog you can specify if it is a mono or stereo WAV file. The main thing is that all the tracks need to begin at the same point. And of course, if he's combining MIDI tracks and audio tracks on the same project, the MIDI tracks will need to be recorded back into the project as audio first.

This is going to be something else. This sounds more native system in origin to me. A coupla quick questions: What operating system? What kind of video card? Have you checked on your video drivers/IRQ sharing? Done any recent system changes/updates?
