EMU Paris - retirement or....

d3man · 20th November 2006

Hello everybody

I'm new here, although having studio 6 years and making music 22 years.

Well, 2005. i bought PC with EMU card and switch to native (Cubase) editing and mixing.

From 2000 to 2005 i worked on EMU paris and sound was great.

My question is:

What to do with that great sounding daw with prehistoric software? Did enyone tried Paris on XP and with ASIO drivers? I don't want to put Paris (with MEC and 14 inputs) on garage between winter tires, bike and marmelade, but I don' really know what to do with it.

Thanks.

I use PARIS on XP. Works great for what I use it for. The PARIS Newsgroup can be found here....

I have been a long time promoter of dual-DAW systems using Paris primarily as a digital mix bus, post a more modern DAW. Many Paris users have switched to this kind of setup. This is similar in concept to using a DAW in front of a Fairlight CC-1, a Sydec Mixpander, or a Scope DSP mixer. The DSP power is in a second computer rather than on a card.
Naturally, each of these systems has their own strengths, but Paris still holds up well sonically as long as you can live with a 48K max sample rate. I would try it before I ditched it or went 100% native. The users group can help.

Do you know anyone who uses Paris as an ASIO device for, let say Cubase?
