It is completely useless projects and ENSONIQ has paid the price with PARIS PARIS puisle PRO. Conceptually interesting, the PARIS arrived in 1996 and 1998 (Pro) with a basic idea: A Akai DR16 combined with super effects processor with an Audio Sequencer 16 tracks record and play 128 tracks, Mac and Windows PC 95.
Yes but now ... The PARIS sank before reaching its cruising speed.

A bad deal ...

UTILIZATION

Basic. It explodes all with a good PC that mill. And especially because it is not in Stand Alone it does not crash. As stated in its opinion BubbaGump (he finally air skeptical and would not renew its option), W95 ok, it depends W98, WNT bug, W2000 oula ..., W Xp .. what?

Come on, I put 5 because it Ensoniq.

SOUNDS

The sound is dynamic, but the samples in 24 bits PARIS, deals and 20bit 24Bits road then it seems that the signal is compressed (according to an engineer from home Ensoniq - E-mu Systems).

OVERALL OPINION

It is unfortunate that for a complete and powerful machine fault he put so much money because if the starting PARIS is available, to make professional should just add him six options that broadly covers a total investment of solution + MAC Pro Tools HD and all that goes with bazard.

He has to sell within 15 PARIS France and so much the better.

UTILIZATION

The configuration, operation are they simple?

Euu then yes and no. Actually yes, provided it works. This system dates back to 1997, was abandoned in 2002 by E-MU. After the stop of a production, there was a large enough user base to create a momentum around the product. They got the source (humhum!) develloped and plug-ins and drivers. So that AC also runs on XP (and soon seven with multicore support).
before starting, better go for a ride home fans below:
http://www.parisfaqs.com

Watch out for shares IRQ with the graphics card, he does not


Once the AC is running, you should know that this is an app a little buggy anyway. Therefore knowing these bugs around them. (I am available for additional information).

upon arrival, is used: hundreds of hours of work, and a few crashes, some bluescreen. Sometimes annoying, but not blocking.

SOUNDS

Converters:
good

Effects, treatment:
There is support VST and DirectX a bit random. Some work well, while others are planted. It is advisable to disable DirectX and VST wrapper to use a freeware like Vincent Burel
The internal effects, themselves, turn on the DSP card in real time they not familiar trap of DP4. Ensoniq is pure, we like it or not. The reverbs devellopées recement by Mke Audet are very good ("DPPROHALL" for example). Good chorus, delays to settle painful but useful. Do not expect miracles from EQ or compressor.

Overall, it can record and mix in there, and as always the sound quality of the result will depend on the catch, the interpretation and arrangements. I do not feel the machine as being the source of any sound problems.

Contrary to the opinion of the Frog, it does not compress files, it is the PCM 16 or 24 bits that is stored on your hard drive (extention. bam) but the conversion wave / bam is in both directions without less degradation, the files are the same size, and come out of phase 0.

Ensoniq was in the audio and music from the early 80s, was designing DSP. They samplers and synths, always prized for their sound now. So there was a little know how in this shop.

Here you can find information on technical solutions implemented in this system 48-bit fixed accmulateur 8 bits to the "overflow" to give a little leeway when it comes in red.

OVERALL OPINION

4 years of use.

- Property:
side the integrated, modular, coherent and professional. the fact that HE DID NOT TAKE THE HEAD WITH THE LATENCY: 1.3m / O @ 48K, including point DSP processing without CPU load. The control surface, the digital patchbay.

- Not good:
I do not like bugs, instability. the audio editor, the noisy fan of the ECM (rack I / O), automation weird submix the organization, file naming, the solo function limited to 3, the lack of MIDI, the absence to click.

In my opinion the interest of this system is to provide a alternaltive recording / mixing but not beyond reproach that sounds good at a price now interesting (AC is nothing actually), and tight budgets aors can buy better microphones, better front-end analog sticks new and better pizza.
