chrisl@adkproaudio.comDoes it sync to Cubase's tempo? Is it free? Where is it ?

stereo pairs) and send to the 3 external devices in parallel. You'd need to
sum the processed signals in the analog domain before returning the stereo
mix back into the main insert point in Paris.
At least, this works in my mind - I don't have an 8-Out card to try this
with. But the L-R insert point in the patchbay let me send L to Out 1 and 3
(as well as R to Out 2 and 4) simultaneously when I tried it just now. I'm
guessing you can mult the main insert to as many outputs as you have.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...

Glad you like it. The difference between the mix "in the box"
(Logic) and summing the stems out through the Neotek was
startling. Without a doubt, anyone in the room heard it every
time. Everything just got bigger, and opened

Sorry you couldn't get more out of it. The website has a flash player under
"Listen" that might give you a greater sampling.
Tedyes there is a difference. i have both and have recorded to apogee
ad16x, lynx arora through logic and it is smaller than recorded though
paris and imported into logic. everything else aside paris is still
has it's own magic.

I think he's the only guy in Canada to use the Audio-Cube system for Mastering
