1st
YES!.clock signal is inherent .unless you have a wordclock generator ,slave
Paris to the 002
2nd
clock rates are variable. what they are saying is in order for the source
samples to line up properly ,the clock of the source and destination must
align.this prevents errors on the read cycle so each word gets read at the
right time thereby ensuring the correct word value.
jitter and worse are the result of bad clock mojo.
what they are saying is to use an external wordlock generator for all
machines in the chain, so they are all running in sync
3rd
the spdif and analog connectors on the mec are 20 bit.I'm
almost positive all daughter cards for the mec are 24 bit .I had multiple
adat cards in one of my mecs,one of which was dedicated to a TC
finalizer,which was passing 24 bits.

In the project window AFTER you have plugged the adat pipes in, set the sync
for ADAT. Note, this does not have anything to do with the transport (FF,
Rew, Play, Stop) and only syncs up the digital words.

Do what I have above, and it will be sync'd. however, don't save your PPJ
with sync as ADAT unless you are 100% positive you will always have the
ProTools sync at the adat In before starting the project.

The 8 In and 8 Out MEC cards are 24 bit. The Adat card is 20 bit. The S/PDIF
on the MEC is 24 bit, but S/PDIF on a 442 is 20 bit. IF-2's are 20 bit. the
MEC analog I/O's are also 20 bit. ALL inputs are capable of 24 bit file
recording, however any that are 20 bit interfaces will only record 20 of the
24 bit file write.
Make sense?
AATook me a while to understand the true dangers of DHMO. Now I am a
concerned citizen too. Thanks, Don.
The presence of DHMO in some Apple and Dell computer ventilation systems
is most alarming. Why isn't McCloskey all over this?

>>Michael........is there any way to convert the 002 files to wav files? even
if you recorded in the 002 at less than 24 bit(allowing transfers via the
Paris adat card), if you are transferring over 8 tracks without the 9 pin
adat machine control, you cant start and stop the transfers at the same
location on the timeline,making it difficult to align subsequent passes.

It takes more energy to create a single ounce of DHMO than it takes to
refine a barrel of oil. Nevertheless, the goverment will pay you a subsidy
if you quit growing wheat and plant your acreage in flora that will produce
DHMO.Are you talking about timeline sync so that both machines run locked up to a
common sync source? If so, you're not going to be able to do it unless the
Digi 002 has a sync input. The Paris ADAT module only outputs ADAT sync so
it will have to be he master clock, inputting to an ADAT sync port on the
002. If the 002 doesn't have an ADAT sync input port, forget it.

unless it is 8 tracks or less at 16 bit, forget it otherwise.
do the convert file shuffle thing.or maybe a test tone at the same point on
every track and align them in Paris with sample slide.what else is there?

info.
And I agree with given the current info, a network cable(s)/switch will be a
lot faster and easier IMO to deal with. Just render each track out to a
folder, stripwav, then stuff 'em in Paris and play back. Alternatively, one
could burn a CD/DVD of that info and stripwav it off the CD/DVD into a Paris
folder.

I haven't done any real hardcore testing with them but preliminaries are
that it smokes anything else i've seen. Those were bordering on worthless in
the previous system, an AMD64 single core 2800+ with a Gig of RAM. What I
have found is that the CPU cores far and away outrun the hard disk in video
rendering, using a 400GB seagate SATA. HDD is defintely the choke point for
that work.
Does that help?

>Well thanks everyone, I have a better handle on the ADAT Card for Paris,

I used OMS on my G3 which had a multi pin port sending MTC to my Mac man

a G4 now and it only has fire wire and USB. Dont know if opcodes OMS will
find either of those ports. I'm trying to sync the Paris transport with
a Digi 002, any ideas?....and when all farmers see there's more money in DHMO and quit growing

Regarding the hotfixes, MS reports that the hotfixes fix problems that are
"uncommon" -I believe that was the word used. Are you finding that generally
the hotfixes make a overall improvement in MOST mulitcore (intel) systems?
Just feeling alittle hinkey about making changes to my registery.
Thanks man,

pabHey Folks,
I know very little about bit wizerdry. I'm a music hack.
Now that I'm recording mostly 24bit x 48KHz in PARIS
I'm wondering if the order of conversions matters; dither
or sample rate? -- sample rate, then dither?
I bow to those who know more.
TIA,
Lancedither should be the last step. always.

To answer the original question: Dither is last step as Alex stated.

>Hey Aaron,
I've always had very good luck with Newegg to be honest, but maybe that's
been just luck. I've picked up thousands of dollars worth of gear from them
over the past few years.
Other options. Best Buy isn't awful as long as you get their web pricing
on gear you can pick up locally. For displays there's the added advantage
of seeing it in the store. I own four or five Dell displays and have always
found them to be good to excellent bargains. You can watch for specials on
your own or check out
http://www.techbargains.com/cheaplcdmonitor.cfm
which is a great resource.
Contrary to what someone else here said, I wouldn't buy from Tigerdirect
using your credit card. They're shady gray marketers of the worst kind.
Lastly, every now and the Staples or Office Depot will wind up with some
absurd deal on some odd component, which might be a display. Certainly worth
a look on their web sites on Thursday to see what the weekend bargain bin
will be holding.
Good luck, and you really can't go wrong with Dell displays, we have 70+
of them where I work and a bunch 'round the house. Never had a problem and
that's statistically a pretty solid sample.

I would have suggested Tiger Direct until I read Thad's post on them... I
might think twice about going there myself.
Actually, if you are getting LCDs, Costco or Sam's Club might be a decent
alternative as prices are better than BestBuy. Barring that, I would just
go retail to get the install done, even though BestBuy isn't necessarily a
great resource.

I think it's time we got pictures of Chavez in a compromising threesome with
Raul Castro and an inflatable Che.....and maybe a burro or something.
I thik this would be much more practical foriegn policy down in that part of
the world.
We can just let the machismo of the masses take care of the rest.For 7 years I've been thrilled with Newegg and have also spent thousands
with them. But something has happened this year, starting in January.
Screwed up shipping, leaving single boxed items on a public porchway with a
big friggin SHUTTLE COMPUTER on the side of it 2x - first shuttle was bad,
RMA took weeks and it just sat in their warehouse for days until I called to
bitch about it. First LCD was bad out of the box then they tried to short me
$50 on the unannounced refund (I called tonight - it's been sitting in their
warehouse since Feb 20th. By their own rules to be replaced 4x before a
refund) and the list goes on - all since Jan when I started ordering parts
for the quad core system. Finally tonight after they said they would charge
me on the shipping of an item they are refunding anyway because 'they' can't
get stock on another (and I'll never see the part from them) , I told them
to take a hike and they just lost a seriously loyal customer - buyer beware
to you guys. I'm patient, but that's absolute BS and I'm not putting up with
that behaviour.
James, I checked out the Soyo units, JEEZ THAT IS A BIG SCREEN! I can't even
fit those in my net workstation area (gotta have 2 of 'em, heh)... probably
most I can fit in is 22's.
Anybody using Soyo here by chance?
Tom.. curious what you're using for LCD's and what you think of it/them?
Right now I'm pretty wide open for suggestions but I have to move soon or
miss some production deadlines for my band (cause frankly, I can't friggin
see enough desktop on one monitor to be efficient and the 3rd one I 'had'
ordered from Newegg was for the portable rig so it's even tougher to see
with 'no' monitor, hahaha...)
Thad, I have been considering the Dell FP's as well. At work I have
somewhere in the neighborhood of 125+ of them - zero fails. And I get some
kind of employee discount I'll check into tomorrow, for sure. Agree that's a
pretty solid record we both are seeing. Other brands I'm considering are
Acer (great personal luck, got 5 of those here - no hassles but none have
the DVI-D port I need for quad heaven), Samsung and ViewSonic unless someone
has a reason for me to steer off those names?
Thanks dudes!
AAYeah, I may have to do that in the name of 'git er done' unfortunately. The
stores here, not so plentiful/great I'm afraid. CompUSA was the biggest
parts house for PC stuff, and you have a few dabble-in-it companies like
Best Buy, staples and Wal Mart, then the Ma and Pa shops that hit you pretty
hard because they just can't compete with volume, then end up out of
business 6 months later anyway. I am soooo bummed Newegg pulled up so lame
to the water trough man. My experience has been pretty ixnay on the
Tiger`ay, but I stopped with them probably 5 years back so things might be
different now? I may have to renew the ole' Sams card, but no Costco in
Oklahoma that I'm aware of.
Options, good good thing D. Thanks man!
btw.. did you guys get snow up there today? Freak weather here, sunny and
motorcycle weather yesterday, today frozen toes, ice and snow. I'm ignoring
Bill L's post :)

NeilNot a bad idea (the burro bit), but one thing that always blows my mind is
that developed nations assume developing nations will do what the developed
world wants automatically. I mean, look where the oil and natural gas is.
Nigeria, the Persian Gulf, Central Asia, and more and more is being found
in Brazil to add to the huge reserves in Venezuela. You work in that business,
the Saudi national oil company is more corrupt than Mexico or Brazil by multiples,
it supports a far, far more repressive and decadent regime with its profits,
and it is every bit a nationalized oil monopoly. We're cozy as lice with
them, but when Chavez decides to be a nationalist and demand more money for
the oil they happen to have, I figure that's their right. We're energy junkies
(as is western Europe), and if the price of a fix goes up either we pay the
dealer of start to sweat and scratch a lot.
But I like the burro idea,

heck, I live in the desert, so it's a no-brainer compared to
some places like Seattle, where it's cloudy 370 days a year,
but it'd be decades before my initial costs were recouped
with energy savings. I have passive solar panels to heat the
swimming pool, which do next to nothing unless it's fairly hot
out, since the water flowing through them tends to cool them
off at the same time the sun's trying to heat them up, but
on a nice warm day, it'll definitely raise the temperature
from "AAAGHH! Too cold to go in!" to: "ahhhh... nice" lol
Has anyone noticed on TV that BMW is starting to advertise the
"Hydrogen 7"? Their fuel-cell-powered 7-series vehicle?
Also, on this same subject, a company here just got a research
grant from the state to develop a system that'll extract energy
from superheated road surfaces via a system of tubes/pipes
that'll circulate water underneath the pavement, heat it up,
and then return it to a core that converts the heat to
energy. Good idea, but i just wonder if it'll take more energy
to run the pumps than can be generated from the heat
differential.

to have everything but my solos on the Monkietrax done before I bugger off
to Bangkok on Thursday. I've been using the 'Steve Albini technique' for
tracking guitars on this stuff, which is one dark mic and one bright mic
10-12 inches off the cab pointed pretty much straight at the speaker cone
a few inches from center. This loses the squashing sound of the speaker acting
with the SM-57 capsule at half inch range but gives a lot more realism.
Wasn't doing anything all that different than usual. Guitar was a Les Paul
with P-90s, amp a Savage Macht 6, SE ribbon and Mike Claytor home brew that
Deej sold me, Langevin DVC, into the Fruit Based Computer running SX. The
Savage has a highly complex tone shaping system consisting of one knob marked
'Volume' and a second knob marked 'Tone.' Both were around 2-3 O'clock, which
is where the amp tends to sound the most open. I fiddled around with the
mics a little and got them about where they sounded good.
I don't know what it was, if the humidity was right or I did something different,
but the sound was sick. It's a very fast, punky tune and the sound wasn't
good in a Hendrixy or scooped nu metal or silky blues way, it was a punk
rock sound. A really great bad sound, like Dave Davies on All Day and All
of the Night. Played it back after I got home on my speakers to confirm and
thought, 'Damn, I've been trying to get that sound for effin YEARS.' Nights
like that are why I spend all this money and time on this stuff . . .

NeilI'll post a clip when I get back. It's not even partially mixed yet, but the
studio monitors in the actual place where we record are *coughcoughBehingercough*
so I couldn't confirm the glorious punkness of the sound until I got home.

>NeilThe highest savings are from insulation and efficiency. Once you get
that done then solar domestic hot water, solar hot water space heating,
solar PV and even wind can be good long term investments if your house
is well situated to take advantage of the free energy around you.
Investment in your own energy harvesting systems is also a form of
insurance against rising energy prices in the future.
In Colorado the break-even for solar PV is somewhere around 7 years if
electricity prices are fairly stable, and even faster if electricity
prices shoot up. Panels are usually warrantied for 25 years and will
likely last longer.
Colorado offers renewable energy rebates from utilities (drops the cost
about in half), along with net metering and a lot of sunshine.
One of our problems here is the high electric load of air conditioning
in the summer. Hot sunny days raise demand for electricity. Encouraging
solar panels on buildings is an appropriate solution to that problem,
and it could forestall the need for building extra generating plants.
There's also something to be said for the extra security of distributed
power generation. So I think incentives for solar are a good idea (there
have long been incentives for other forms of power).
In Texas, your legislature is considering solar incentives state-wide,
and Austin already has them.

2 of 'em for $434.05 delivered to my door in 2 days. I tried to deal with
Dell, but they were a good $90 over that by the time I picked up 3 of them
with all discounts, which is the next step in this equation (#3). Knocking
off $10 from list on each is nice, but not cutting it with the slightly
lesser contrast specs, with same warranty.... and I have a Staples I can go
bang on if one dies 1.5 miles from my workplace, so it was a no brainer.
Interesting side note.. the HannsG site says this model has a 4 port USB on
it, and staples doesn't list that at all. Not that I care that much, but it
might be a nice little bonus. It also conflicts with Staples listing of a
whopping 1w speaker input, and says a monsterous 3w (LOL) x 2, and again
18.5 lbs/HG vs 12.2/Staples. - will keep y'all posted. Probalby just a
revision change and Staples is blowing out the 'old' model.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ay9Y9tBYzkwI have some Monster mic cables & speaker cables (both the
regular side-by-side zip cord variety, as well as the phone
jack ones for amp cabs) I can DEFINITELY hear a difference
between the Monster mic cables & a couple of low-end cables of
the same length that i keep as spares/emergency use only; but
then again, i can hear a difference between those lo-end ones
& some other good quality mic cables i have, as well, that
AREN'T Monster brands... i don't beleive I can hear a
difference between the Monster mic cables & the other high-end
ones I have. On the speaker cable end of things, I like the
Monster stuff because it really is pretty heavy-duty, and if
you're running a 20-foot cable from an amp head in the control
room to a speaker cab in an iso room, it can get stepped on &
kicked often enough to where I think it's worth having a good,
well-built cable for the task. Now, for the zip cord version
(on my regular home stereo), i do feel that i can hear a slight
difference between the Monster stuff & the speaker cables I had
before that, which were smaller gauge ones - but that could
simply be a matter of a larger gauge wire is going to have less
resistance... i haven't tried out any other heavy gauge brands
in that application.

I guess he used too much. I'm sure Kim or Martin can set us straight.
RodRight there with man, I"ve never had the stuff but that's the general
reaction I've heard in the past. Even the veg lovers have told me to go easy
on that stuff, LIGHTLY spread it and it's an aquired taste.
That was pretty dang funny Bill, even though I was pretty sure I knew (and
maybe because) what was coming for ole' dude.

little goes a long way.
It's been years since I had it, but as I recall it's salty and tangy -
what the Brits call "savory". It does not taste like vegetables
particularly. I can't really say it is like anything else, so it's tough
to describe. Maybe if you took a cube of concentrated vegetable broth
and spread it.

List ingredients, please
RodIt's a Yeast Extract... that and salt I think. ;o)
I have a jar here. It's ingredients in order of quantity is:
Yeast Extract
Salt
Mineral Salt
Malt Extract (from Barley)
Color
....and then various vitamins added... mostly B group.
It doesn't taste like anything else really, other than Marmite. While it
tastes nothing like it, the closest I can relate it to is perhaps Soy Sauce,
largely because of the importance of salt to both.
Cheers,
Kim.

Not the same, but it's the only thing I've ever tried which is similar. Kinda
a different brand of the same stuff.
Cheers,
Kim.Hehe, ok, I'll give you the low down on how to taste it. Indeed I may be
willing to send some to anybody interested, but don't expect to love it first
bite. That said, to have it as we like it:
(*) Fresh bakery bread or toast - HOT. No half stale bread, cold toast or
supermarket loaves. They can be ok, but they'll never compare to fresh bread
or hot toast.
(*) Note that vegemite is a spread you have when you're having nothing on
your bread. It's like you put butter on. Then treat vegemite as like a herb
or spice which just needs a touch. Apply it like you might apply a medium
hotness chilli paste. You can always put more on.
(*) Vegemite works ok if you hardly have any at all. You can just have fresh
bread and (preferably REAL) butter, and then just the smallest scrape of
vegemite on a piece of bread. Once you get used to it you learn how much
you like, but you're far safer to put less than more.
A lot of Australians seem to agree that if you want to really appreciate
a piece of freshly baked bread, you have to have it either on it's own, with
just butter, or with just butter and vegemite. When you spread Vegmite it
shouldn't cover the toast. There should be scrapings of it with gaps in between.
And no thickness to it. Maybe 1/16th inch of vegemite just here and there
on the toast/bread.
From a guy who's 35 and eats vegemite several times a week, while I'm sure
I wouldn't have reacted like the guy in the video, I saw that piece of toast
and with no butter and that massive amount of vegemite I don't think I would
have eaten it either. ;o)
Cheers,
Kim.

And since butter already has salt in it, and bread has yeast, and dye is
usually to
keep you from hurling at the sight of the original color....that leaves the
final question... why? ;-)
I think I'll stick to peanut butter, jam, cheese, or honey.

>Define sharing.. is that running at the same time or is that running at
separate times?
If running at separate times, I had pretty good success with a variety of
apps over the years.
I tried some years back to get Paris and Vegas (ver 3 I think) running at
the same time so I could have MIDI... boy, that was ugly and I haven't tried
it since. The only concurrent app I ever got to run was Master Tracks Pro,
and it just didn't react very stable so I stopped fooling with single PC /
multi app locks. I think with multicores you could do this fairly well now
if you create a CPU affinity profile segmenting each app to it's own core.

like just salt.
So I guess you won't be asking me to ship you some then? ;o)

Marmite to me tastes the same only not as strong. You have to put a lot more
on, which might be why people who are pre-warned possibly prefer Marmite.
Personally I prefer Vegemite, but perhaps that's like people who eat chilli
for years. Eventually you use more and more... ;o)
Cheers,
Kim.I'm running on XP Pro
Nuendo uses a Echo Layla 3G 8 x adat + 8 x analog
I also have a UAD card in the system
I do all my mixing in Nuendo but send out 16 channels of grouping to Paris.
2 EDS cards.
I also buss my Lexicon in over vocals there.
No real issues in doing this. Memory sits at around 350 meg with both apps
open.
I mix and then print to disc with Paris - all 24bit files.
