x G450 PCI
playing nice with the Houston controller and the Cubase USB dongle whil'st
interacting with the VIA KT 800 chipset. Anyway, I've got it happening now.
Hell'uva dance to get this all happening. I live the power of this thing.
I'm operating Cubase Sx at 1.5ms latency without a hiccup so far.
Now.....what to do with my old Cubase DAW???........I'm thinking maybe one
of those EMU interfaces running Emulator X maybe???
;o)

>Don.....it's....."0" Actually I'm not sure about total 0, as I've never tested
it, but it's real world 0 for me, on Paris 3.0
using solo tracks (vocals and the occasional trumpet). You should NOT be
getting any noticible latency.

>Autotune won't render in manual mode. This is how you get around it. You do
one phrase at a time. If you're using auto mode, then render(native) away.
That's the only thing I use the spdif bounce thing for. All other plugs get
rendered the native way, if needed. I don't do too much of that these days.
No need.
Unless I'm using several Waves Master's plugs. That's another story. Can
you say HOG? they sound good though.

>First of all, the ASUS A8V-Deluxe is kinda quirky(at least mine is) when
using an older Matrox G450 PCI graphics card along with a G450 AGP card. If
you intend to try this....DO NOT load the VIA AGP driver that comes with the
mobo. It's OK to load the rest of the drivers. If you load this AGP driver
under these circumstances (ie..using the Matrox cards) you might as well do
a clean install and start over. Removing the VIA AGP driver using the
uninstall feature doesn't clear up the problem and your life will be a
living hell until you surrender and restore your original clean install that
you Ghosted........you did remember to Ghost,,,,,,didn't you? ;o)
Secondly,. if you're using removable caddies and you remove the system
drive, you will get a system drive error (as invalid system drive/coronary
arrest) when you reinsert it into the caddy unless you remove the other
drives from their caddies first, insert the system drive solo, then reboot
on the single system drive, then shut down, reinsert all of the other drives
and then reboot.
Also, with as many PCI cards as I've got, (3 x RME's and 4 x UAD-1's in a
Magma) the IRQ less than equal BSOD can rear it's ugly head. The trick is to
turn off the Magma (or pull the PCI cards from the mobo slots), reboot until
you get the system happy again, then shut down, reinstall the Magma host
card (or the PCI cards in the mobo) and reboot. The 4 x UAD cards are the
issue in mine. It takes a while to get all of their addresses sorted out it
seems. Eventually everything stabilized.
Lastly and most annoying for me was getting the Houston controller to work
with Cubase SX. I finally figured it out. Cubase SX has to be loaded before
the system ever sees the Houston driver. It won't do to uninstall/reinstall
the driver if the Houston driver is loaded before SX is loaded. My
experience was that SX will *never* see that driver and the controller will
not work unless SX is loaded before the controller driver. Took me a whole
day to figure this one out.What? So that's it then? You're finished? Just like that? All solved? Done?
Complete? Operational? Finito?
So what am I supposed to do tonight for entertainment then? Just sit here?
I wonder is there's anything on TV... doubt it...
....aha, the cricket. :o) That's ok then...
Cheers,
Kim.

Well, I could bitch for hours about how hard a time I'm having trying to
get my Ensoniq MR Rack script to translate to Cubase SX. It's friggin' wierd
how they implemented this.

;o)
I guess I should have known they'd have all that kind of stuff. Just never
really thought about it. I'm surprised they would be able to mess something
like that up. Not that Im familiar with the MR rack, but I would have thought
that it wouldn't be that hard to get something like that right. I guess they
take a few shortcuts for some of the older more abstract gear like that.
If it makes you feel any better it doesn't look like we're going to win the
cricket. ;o) It's been a good match until today. I hate it when there's a
draw. It seems such a waste. It's one of the oddities of cricket that two
teams can have uneven scores and yet fail to actually produce a result. It
sucks when it happens, but the fact that it can does add an extra element
to the game.
Good luck with your rack. :o)
Cheers,
Kim.

EEeeewww... that took me by surprise! ;o)i guess you could run a cpu usage check and see what happens but i
would assume that the audio streaming would stop when the file stops
playing. as far as the mutes go, i would think that it would be
likened to a midi on/off command in that data is sent only during the
onset of either command.

but I've basically been cobbling together something here out of new and used
parts that just don't like to play with each other sometimes but when
working, will do what I had envisioned back in 1997 when I bought Paris.
It's just taken such a huge amount of time and thinking outside the box to
get it all happening the way *I* want it to work. The part that is downright
crazy is the insistence on building this whole Frankenstein with Paris at
it's core and totally integrated in everything that happens here. I mean,
*nothing happens without Paris involved. When I'm tracking, I'm tracking to
Paris, but I'm using both Paris/Mytek and RME converters which are routed
through Totalmix and Cubase SX and then back into Paris. Then when I'm
mixing, Paris is the master timeline/sync source along with panning and aux
sends/returns post compression EQ'ing and whatever else. Now that native
DAWs have so much processing power, that's just plain wierd, don't you
think? I don't know.....but I like the way it sounds and the wierdest thing
about it is that I'm comfortable driving this jalopy when things could be so
much simpler and elegant. I dunno.......maybe not perverted, but somewhat
eccentric perhaps??.......but then again, I'm not the only one. I mean,
we're all here, right?

I mean everybody can buy a Subaru WRX, but not everybody can tweak the carby
on an old chevy V8 and get it purring just right. Gotta take the pleasures
where you find them. :o)
On a side note, and a really cool, or perhaps really smooth one at that,
I just went and bought a digital set top box for my TV. I'm not up to date
with how digital TV is going over in the U.S. but we were early intoducers
of it over here, but its taken time to catch on. It's getting much more economical
now though. I just went to my local grocery supermarket and they had a set
top box for digital TV for just $75. So how does it help me?
Well it gives me a couple of extra channels, and the extra channels happen
to be for ABC and SBS, and the ABC one shows some really cool stuff I'll
want to see, and repeats the docos and current affairs on the main ABC station,
which I'll find really handy, but better still...
....I'm now listening to jazz on ABC Dig Jazz radio. It's the only completely
jazz dedicated radio station we have here, and I must say, while I wondered
breifly whether I could actually spare the $75 over christmas, I'm mighty
glad I bought it. And much as I can tell that the station is clearly compressed
digital audio, the sound quality is decidedly better than FM radio. In particular
the stereo separation is way better than I'd expect on FM. I'm not sure what
compression they're using, but it sounds ok.
And my TV brings up a picture of an open magazine, a cup of coffee, and a
saxophone. ;o) Oddly it seems to do this for every radio station regardless
of whether it's jazz, but it seems particularily relevent for the jazz station.
:o)

Kim.

Yeah, or perhaps a dedicated box running a convolution reverb?
It'd be be like having a couple of Lexi 480L's without having
to lay out all that dough.
You could probably run several instances of convo reverb, plus
a number of VSTi's on it before it started to bog down, dontcha
think?
NeilHi all. I need to know what the voltage is on the EDS card. Does anyone know
this? I am going to try a PCI extender because my new case won't allow the
EDS card where the motherboard is located. Anyone? thanks... ~ EdThanks Chuck,I will look into those suggestions...Merry Christmas, zan

something. Why do all of you guys use those clunky old Matrox cards? There
must be some reason or another, but one of the first rules of stable computing
is never mix hardware and software from vastly different eras. Don't put
your brand new 8X AGP Super Gamer Qautro nVidia card on a 1999 mobo running
WinME. Don't run Netscape 4.2 on Server 2003 SP2. Yes, it's a PITA to upgrade,
but dual DVI nVidia cards to run on nVidia chipsets are no longer horribly
expensive and it seems people here are giving up a lot of time and effort
to use a (let's admit pretty crappy) old video card.
Obviously, this same argument could be used to suggest dropping PARIS itself,
but at least PARIS adds some distinct value with its sonics. I don't think
Matrox pixels look any better.
Just wondering . . .
TCBYou will be pleasantly surprised with the converters and if appropriate, the
mic pres too (designed by Ted Fletcher). If you have the budget, I'd go with
the 1820M interface for Emulator X. The mic amps in here rival my best pre's.
Also, they use (arguably) a new topolgy called current mode amplification.
http://www.tfpro.com/products/info/26.php
The pre's are wonderfully clean, nuetral, and detailed. They are especially
good for dynamic and ribbon mics. My Shinybox ribbons sound much better
through these pre's than any other I've tried. It would also be pretty easy
to pipe them out to your paris rig, either via analog or digital.
BTW, I just got my matched pair of SE3's. More to follow... :-)

go with 3 DVI outs... not cheap. PCI-E is going to force this change on ppl
sooner or later anyway, but - In DJ's case at least - the problem comes in
the amount of usable PCI slots and video heads. By sticking to the agp/pci
duo of Matrox 450, he loses no usable PCI slots and gets 4 head outputs
without taking more than one IRQ.
On a single or even dual head video system, I couldn't see keeping those old
units - especially knowing that with the Matrox drivers they are somewhat
evil with resource hogging.

by various systems, motherboards, etc. that it works well with these setups,
along with Paris. Since I have built and own quite a few different systems,
I can tell you that some of the newer, NVIDIA-type power video cards LOVE

I am sure some of the newer ones will work just fine... but that may depend

a cheap G-450! Lastly, as I said I have multiple computers and I am at work

a difference in a G-450 -vs- some of the newer ones. I don't use DVI, but
I have, and I don't see a big difference there either. Of course, at my
age, I am about blind... lol

Glad your up and rockin again!
As for your old PC, you could run it as a UAD-1, T.C., or Pulsar farm. Wasn't
Amy looking to get a new computer? You could make it mobile unit, or just
keep it as a back up. Just some thoughts.

>Thad,
The Matrox G450's are very stable on Win XP if :
1. You don't load the Matrox drivers (let Win XP use it default driver)
2. You don't load the VIA AGP chipset
The mobo I'm using has two PCI slots that share IRQ with the AGP (#1 & 6)
Since the cards also share the same driver, this results in very little, if
any, hit to processor resources and allows quad VGA outputs. I have tried
NForce VGA cards and found them to be very unfriendly beasts with my old 21'
Dell P1110's. It's cold up here in the mountains and I need 4 x 21' CRT's to
keep the house warm.because this house is heated with natural gas and the
price of natural gas is so high now that heating with electricity is
cheaper........so now you know.

Are some of you doing it in PARIS or do I need to buy Wavelab?
Thinking of trying some of the UAD precision stuff too.
Probably a good project for me to get into the mastering thing
since it shouldn't require alot since its a jaaz thing.
I also recorded it so I know the material.
Thanks,
PeteBut these two posts, combined with DJ's experience, sort of confirm what I
was saying. The 450's are not in any way problem free or certified or anything.
In fact, if DJ loads the AGP drivers for his mobo (a rather logical thing)
the Matrox won't work. And if he loads the freaking Matrox drivers (an even
more logical thing) it won't work. I'd say that's a long ways from compatibility.
I've done quad setups with nVidia chipset boards and nVidia vido cards (on
AGP, one PCI) and trust me they were a lot easier than what it sounds like
DJ went through.
Of course, they're your computers, your life, and none of my business. But
when I hear someone having setup and IRQ problems with a Matrox 450 it's
sort of like hearing someone having problems with the first SoundBlaster
Live! card. "Hey, My SB Live is making my new Athlon X2 crash." "Wow, you
mean it actually boots? Lucky you!"

I've been checking into Sound Forge and Wavelab.I've found Sound
Forge 8 new for $170.00.Wavelab lloks to be $550ish;thats a
pretty big difference.
Is there that much of a difference between the two?
The master cd I do will be sent off of replication and pressing
if that has a bearing on what to use.
TIA,
PeteThad,
At some point, these old Matrox cards are going to just die. They are
*vintage*-purchased back in 1998. I can't believe they are still working,
but then again, I can't beklieve my EDS cards are working either.
In the event I upgrade to something more current, which dual head AGP and
PCI Nvidia cards would you recommend for AGP which are compatible (to the
best of your knowledge) with VIA chipsets? My experience with the VIA
chipset and the Nforce graphics cards has been less than stellar and it
seems that the VIA chipsets are most friendly with multicore CPU's and my
other PCI cards (RME and UAD-1).
Thanks,
Deej

>Hi Pete-
I personally prefer Wavelab big-time over Sound Forge,
though I own an older version of SF, 6.0. Wavelab has
superior effects, EQ, and dithering, in my opinion.
However, have you considered mastering in paris? If you
have No Limit, just insert it on each of the stereo tracks,
and use the Paris EQ. I have had AWESOME results doing that.
Record it to disk as a stereo .paf, then open in Wavelab, and
dither it usung the UV H22R option in wave lab to 16-bit .wav.
I also do not know if sound Forge recognizes .paf files. I know
that Wavelab does.
Merry Christmas,
Chris

do what you 'should' do on the drivers level. However, they 'are' certified
windows drivers.. and that's the way to go. Use the XP built in certified
drivers and don't load the matrox (and in DJ's case, the AGP via VXD/DLL)
and everything is cool. I've had two die on me already and so I'm down to my
last G450 now. I am very interested in what you think are the best available
dual head AGP/PCI combos to get 4 VGA outputs with these days. VERY
interested because I know the day is coming and I don't want to shell the
$$$$ for the colorgraphics stuff.

So if mastering in PARIS your talking about bringing my stereo
mix back into PARIS to master correct?What difference would using
Nolimit on the tracks as oppossed to the master bus give me if
any?
So then you assemble and lay out your cd tracks in Wavelab for
your final master cd?
Any need to dither if I was already using 16 bit files to begin
with?
Thanks Chris,

>You can also print your mix (paf) inside Paris, open a new Paris project (call

which you've mixed. With the Precision limiter as the last insert in your
chain, and your 2 tracks set to 0 (no Paris eq at this point) it's quite
accurate, Just set the Precision limiter to -.4 or -.3 or whatever you like.
I just keep a project file named Master with the songs I want to compare
against already loaded.

Are you saying your tracks are 16 bit, or your mix files? I would
definitely mix at 24 bits. This will give you higher resolution to do
your processing in before knocking it back down to 16 at the end of
the mastering process. I do all my mastering (so far) within Wavelab
at 32 bit float (output from the montage used for assembly), then
dither down to 16 at the very end.

Could I do everything I need to do in the cheaper Wavelab
version(was it Essential)?Would that give me all the tools to
create a master cd for replication(red book and all that stuff I
still haven't gotten into)?
Thanks much for the info David,

>>Hey Aaron,
I tend to use the GeForce FX 5200 series, though they are getting a little
long in the tooth themselves. They have solid 2D performance and horrible
3D performance for a gamer, they're cheap, and they're cool enough some don't
even have a cooling fan--just a heat sink. For example
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E168141211 86
would be a good idea. If you look around there are also dual DVI/dual VGA
cards though one of each tends to be the default.
I tend to use nVidia chipsets with nVidia cards. I usually do NOT use the
nView desktop management stuff. I probably could but it seems to add very
little for what I do and offer another chance for things to go wrong.

The impossible is about to happen. I'm flying back to Boston for Christmas.
First Christmas outside Napa in... hmmm...53 years. Bonnie's daughter lives
there, so the two of us are flying out.
Silly me. Should have checked before today. The only things I can see available
to rent tomorrow (!) are, hmm, a little more expensive than I had anticipated.
If I did this sort of thing more often I would have known to check into the
car at the same time as the ticket. But...
So, do any of you fine Paris folk, who know darned near everything, know
of a source for renting a car for a week, cheap? or anything else I should
know of, or see, or do, while in Boston?
Or anyone need a fast mural done in exchange for a car for a week? Ha! It
would have to be a fast one...
-steveAFAIK, mutes do not stop the file from being streamed, but edits do.

capabilties are the same though, so you could create a full length
file with all the songs correctly spaced and all fades done, then drop
the indexes and burn. We have done loads of masters this way and the
pressing plants haven't had a problem with one yet.

Hey, Bill, thanks for the tip! I bet there are lots and lots of cool stuff
in the Boston area. Only have a week there -- it should be fun.
Keep them tips comin'!
