Creamware Scope Professional

My choice was guided by the t option of routing that are reminiscent of Logic, and the provision of kit dveloppement.
J'tais the search of a powerful DSP card and open the collection's outdoor, which can make the best without being forced to go through an app in the same brand.

My config is: P4 3.2GHz, 2 MB Ram, ASUS motherboard, DVD burner and 19-inch screen

I use a Nord Modular G2X, an Andromeda and my old Microwave XT Rack
I enter my instruments in the card using a 1204 VLZ Pro mixer by two out of Mute. Map it even enters the mixer and the cost is done on a pair of Yamaha MSP5 by the main outputs of the Mackie.

9 / 10 for 2 analog inputs / outputs only. Everyone can not afford to go directly to ADAT

UTILIZATION

Installation was no Droulez bp. Plug and "pray" effectively ...

The configuration can be quite complex. In fact the basic nickel project to Get You Started as with any sound card. Ds you want further (synchronization, routing mixing, recording config) trs far we can go in making head. But works ...

The literature is abundant on the plugins, but frankly too succinct about the possibilities of the same card in it, with, for example, total silence on the meaning of DIFFERENT items config file Cset.ini

8 / 10 for doc

GETTING STARTED

For the moment I had no crash dplorer. On the forums there are concerns communication with different software, but mostly it's the configuration problem.

Scope Fusion Platform is still version 4.00000000. Is this a sign of fault-free operation of Systm perfect? I will not even l.

I mostly use Wavelab, Cubase SX, Live 4, FM7, Absynth diverse effects ... A report that there is a mode of operation of the card that allows you to use the main plugins as VST 2.

I russi down about 1.5 ms with 3 synths, reverb, the time limit, phasers on a software mixer.

Recording / mixing for the moment I'm about 3 ms in 24/96 with 24 audio tracks, including 5 vst, plus a few MIDI tracks. Everything is bathed in relatively common effects without causing any problem.

OVERALL OPINION

Voil 2 months that I play with, we got acquainted. I prfre it is the possibility of routing (me who loves modular synths, here I am with everything a modular system of plugins ...), the quality, the synth s modular (but this is the terribly subjective).

Before I DCID a creamware card (which no one talks in France, no newspapers, no dealers) I could test one PowerCore FireWire. As a friend of mine possdait a Creamware, it was possible to test the two parallle. Creamware at the silent power over, especially because of its routing of Logic Audio. In addition to the cards scope can be expanded, as long as our bank account to be used also to go up to 30 DSP parallle. As against the pci is not really mobile.

To date, I do it again this choice without problem. Despite mdiatique silence against this brand, the few English and French forums full of tips and tricks, patches, and friendly people. In short all that remains is that it put to work.

The power is with the appointment 14/15 dsp!
I mix all that Nuendo has creamware synths and add more processors to start without ... terrible!

My config:
ASUS P4G8X Dual DDRAM, 1 GB ram, P4 2.4 ghz, dual screen card matrox
I am starting to sound a lot of audio and MIDI tracks fifteen

UTILIZATION

Easy to install and very fast.
No bug, latency down smoothly, no cracks, conversion of high quality, transparency and definition ... perfect.

Facility: brace yourself! is a virtual studio that cable as for real! So not like Logic, it's more of jacks, MIDI is moved with the mouse ... The rooting in creamware is a killer. Pro tools is far behind: too expensive, no synths on offer (the effects), not as flexible ... In short, if Hans Zimmer station creamware is not only cheaper not true (it is stuffed with money!)

Manual: hum ... it gets complicated ... advice: go maomusique.com planetz.com or forums that are otherwise Specilisations avce galley is not very instructional manuals ...

GETTING STARTED

Latency 3 ms ...

Number of tracks? Never been limited in fact .... I have to work on 45/50 tracks in general and my Pentium is very little used for all mixing and synth emulations (prophet, hammond ...) are those of creamware ...

OVERALL OPINION

3 years creamware addict. Nothing to like .... Pro tools uad, PowerCore ... effects here and there very well but the plugs are more expensive tjrs, flexibility far behind, and creamware is the only platform offering both dsp synth!!

RPIX unbeatable power and great sound pro .... qiu I know have sold their work in Pro Tools for creamware. A friend fan of UAD (2 in his bike) fell in love with creamware, dsp 30 from under the hood ... He kept his uad for 2 / 3 cool effects ...

My configuration: Pentium 4. 2.4GHz, i845 chipset MSI motherboard, 160GB Disk, Ram 1G0
Motu HD896 Alesis adat xt. connected in adat on the map.

DSP 15 foot! Plus too much to worry about with regard to the PC!

I work with Cubase VST which I do not use, because the card provides an excellent plug-in qualitée
all the pulsars with 2 more, I have a total of 27 DSP.

UTILIZATION

Installation is super simple, especially if you have the file that you downloaded AllKeys after registering on the site.
Then you configure a small virtual studio, which is cable at will by simple mouse click.

GETTING STARTED

The system shall be stable enough I can not complain (although I'm under windows!)
I work 100% with DSPs creamware, ie all the effects that the synths.
In addition there are a lot of plug that you can download for free on the net.

As against the only problem with this is the creamware Service

OVERALL OPINION

it's been four years since I work with DSPs creammware. I had at the time a pulsar1 4 DSPs,
I was very happy, that's what prompted me to change to increase the number of DSP.
It's true I'm working today with 27 DSPs, but 15 is plenty.
The menu is expensive but it is worth weight in gold, especially with the wild plug it offers.
I'm not disappointed, I have nothing to envy to protools.
I would do without this choice problems
