Thanks for your responses to my questions... I have 1 gig of memory assigned
to Paris. Don't the plugins get their memory from Paris? Is 1 gig too much?

Sounds good too DJ.
My concern also is every review for ribbon mics included a recommendation
for a real good mic pre. I have DBX 586 tube pres. Not the best by a long
shot.
I have never really been pleased with these pres.
If I were to sell them what mic pres would you guys recommend I replace them
with
for about the same amount of money and channels. 4 channels. With phantom
power.

Thanks,
b

As to your preamp question, Grace now makes a 101 specifically
for ribbon mics - they're a little under $600 street price.
The 101's are about as clean & uncolored of a mic pre as you can
get without stepping up in cash big-time.
