>Here's my .02

1. Everything has to be equal. *Almost always* when someone
complains about digital it is because of cheap convertors or bad
engineering. Compare the same convertor at different resolutions
and you can hear some difference. I've done this with a Lavry and
it is real, but of smaller magnitude of improvement than most people
expect.

The existence of so many recordings transferred back in the 80's
on the wretched convertors in the Sony 1630/40 mastering decks
is still causing complaints about "digital harshness".

I have done orchestras straight to 44.1 / 16 bits that have been
as smooth and sweet and detailed as anyone could expect and way
better sounding than any vinyl record could ever be.

2. It is not a matter of hearing the higher frequencies. We don't.
What we may hear is the transient response being better. One of the
things I learned from my power amp design friends is that you need
frequency response out to 250K or so for the transients to be
well reproduced. This may be an issue in digital also.

3. What many people are claiming to hear is not more highs, but
more detail. I hear more detail at very low levels on classical, where
you start running out of bits at 16. This is a real issue, but less so

for pop music since with most pop, the waveform is so compressed
it looks like a solid bar instead of a waveform.

4. There's always some placebo effect, and there have been a LOT
of bad sounding boxes sold on their high sample rates while the
bozo designers simply forgot about things like mic-pre quality,
component quality, basic circuit design and interface issues.


Recording engineers we have to be able to do 4 things well:

Never yell with headphones on

Coil cables properly

Hear where to EQ

Have minimal placebo effect. Yes, this can be learned.


In the end, I would rather engineer well, with good gear (and never in
the Pro Tools mix buss!) at red-book spec than use hi-rez stuff
that has less attention paid to the quality of each piece.

All things being equal, hi-res is better. But less than they say.

BTW, with the amazing popularity of iPods and the like, it seems as
if hi-res is no longer an issue since we can't even get beyond MP3
let alone red-book. I disagree. Right now, there are iPods with 60
gigabytes!

Now, a CD can only 700meg, so we could easily have iPods holding
86+ CD's of uncompressed audio! No MP3 crap! It's mainly an
access speed issue at this point, but I think it will happen, and then
hi-res will follow.

These have been bought as is for spare parts.
Because I am located in Greece it is cost prohibited to send cards aboard
for propable fix.
So with my audio engineer I could fix some here.
Would anybody kindly share these schematics ?
I know someone outhee got them...
The Ensoniq guy ( I understand why) did not reply on this.

It wasn't the frequency response of the source material being that high,
it was the need for the amp circuitry to be able to go that
high so that the leading edge of transients would be reproduced
without any rounding off of the waveform. Deane Jensen wrote
a paper on this years ago. I'll see if I can find a copy of it.


DCD,
Long story short is that when Ensoniq was bought out by Emu and Creative,
lots of heads rolled. A good deal of hostility ensued. Papers vanished,
mysteriously, and *no one seems to know where they went*.. the why is
obvious when you think about it from a creators standpoint. If there are
indeed roadmaps on the EDS cards I would be most definitely interested
should you come across them.. but I hold little hope at this late stage in
the public release of those documents.

I could have bought a *lame sounding* 909 for a blowout price at the time,
but noooo....
I wanted the latest and greatest.
And great it was, for about two months. I now use it's rimshot as
a click soundsource when a drummer requires one.
I reckon the 909 still sounds lame, but hey, I could have made a truckload
of money... if only.....

Due to the many posts that maybe misleading if you don't follow all of them
in the right order I decided to summarize what I know regarding senderella
and its use with Paris .

1. Use inside Paris.cfg at the top the string EDSTransfer=8,16 .You
could use 8,8 but this has problems with audio streaming. The 8,16 seems
like the magical number, remember I tried them all....
This is needed because then Senderella works realtime NO LATENCY as a buss
inside Paris.
Senderella seems like the greatest discovery amoung FREE plugins for Paris,
link: http://www.kvraudio.com/get/1433.html
Senderella newest version has a redirect option so you can send the signal
and not hear (or hear) the dry signal if you want.
It has 64 bussses ! nad now saves its condition and prest (the version
before could not) after saving your song.

2. Senderella works across submixes ! but the latency in beetween submixes
has to be taken into consideration.

3. So possible uses are
a} Use your favorite DX/VST/UAD1/POWERCORE /EXTERNAL DEVICE reverb as abuss
with senderella.
You occupy two Paris audio tracks for your reverb return using 16bit (24bit
works too) silence paf file.
Here you can create a long 5 minute file or bigger and have it in handy
anytime you want it.
b) Use your favourite compressor VST/DX/UAD!/POWERCORE/EXTERNAL for buss
compression.

4. On both uses the method is around the same.

5. Senderella although showing up as it is in Paris as vst does not let the
audio pass the plugin, It stops in senderella so only WET signal can be
send.
this is useful only for bussing say dsrumtracks to a cmpressor and not need
to have also the dry tracks playing.
In that situation no wrapper needs for senderella.
But for full use and potential senderella needs to be wrapped

6. Wrappers that can be used are the FREE Spinaudio lite
http://www.spinaudio.com/downloads.php?download_type=3&d ownload_id=33 which
can wrap ONLY one VST plugin.
So here you can wrap one instance of senderella and use it as send for
reverbs.
If you buy Spinaudio ofcourse you can have as many plugins wrapped as you
want.

7.. Senderella by renaming its dll like send1,send2,send3 etc can be used as
many times as you want it is that simple.

8. you need to have 16bit files (empty) on the receining senderella
instances.

9. If you have multiple cards then use (if you want it across submixes)
tracks 15 and 16 of your last card, so that all sending instances are bfore
these two.

10. On Me works but I haven't got very stable resluts which may be my
computer though so you could give some more tests but on XP works just fine
here.

11. So to come to its actual use
First you wrap as we said senderella, I prefer chainer because chainer is
extremely stable and has some good functinality like dry and wet volumes
many slots midi automation preset handling etc.
Note that here we need a VST chainer/wrapper because senderella is only VST.
For UAD1 you can use the same wrapper chainer and wrap the vst versions of
VST.
