The big mixer handles DSP better than the SC type mixer?

On the topic, where, or how, do you connect stereo effects for the big mixer? I seem to have lost something for lack of use. Thx.

Edit: I am on sx3 on the rme daw.

Depends,i mostly route 8 tracks to the scope system and 8 tracks back into the rme or i sum 8 ch via the scope mixer and get a stereo signal back into the rme daw.I mostly monitor via the totalmix and create the final mix on the rme daw aswell.I see the scope ...

I mix on a e6750 daw with the rme multiface and route 8 ch via adat to a second pc to the scope mixer.I mostly mix efx and add synths in scope and do the rest on the rme daw.I also use the rme clock and the da of the rme due to quality.

So you take a stereo mix out of scope (of the 8 effected ...

This is all very good news to me. It'll save me a lot of research. My setup is pretty decent and things sound pretty good to me at 44.1. Mixes could improve but raw tracks are fine.

The basics -
- Digimax 96k
- Yamaha i88x with plugins
- Pulsar 1 on a P4 2.8ghz PC.
- RME DIgiface on a P4 Dou Core ...

(although I WILL argue tube guitar amps over stomp boxes or VST plugins anyday )

Haha, I have the same feeling, however I must admit that Cubase 4 has some VST track presets that compile multiple plugins and I found one that I inserted on dry Les Paul track that sounded really good. Much better ...

Glad you commented. Sounds like you are very knowledgable on the subject. That's convincing enough for me. Good, because I really don't feel like changing my setup and going through new growing pains having to decrease my inputs and outputs in half, for one.

This brings to mind another new debate I ...

Funny you should say that. I've only just started experimenting with higher sample rates. I've slaved Pulsar to RME at 44.1 for every project I've ever worked on and I agree, you have to have the ears and the skllls to produce good sounding material. I'm satisfied with the results too.

So then ...

Darn, darn, darn, darn, darn. OK, well, I see that the card process 96k - I was able to send the coax signal to an older external converter that feeds a pair of Infinity speakers and I confirmed the sample rate 96k going in.

As a test, I'll route the ASIO source module to the ADAT destination ...

Ran a test with ASIO and it works. I thought I remembered someone saying something about the older cards not supporting it.

- Set Pulsar to Master
- Slave Cubase to Pulsar
- Import stereo wave file to Cubase/converts to 96k
- output ASIO to Pulsar ADAT source

Will the ADAT I/O ports support 96k as ...

Does the Pulsar 1 Classic support sample rates above 48k through it's ADAT ports? I'm running Scope v4.0 software with the card slaved to an RME Hammerfall Digiface on another PC. Thx.

LOL.. OK, Sorry, it's my A16 that is 16 bit.

Yeah, I've played with that concept a little bit with a snare track. I have both audio cards in one PC, and I can route cubase tracks to discrete RME hardware buses (ADAT 1-16), ADAT out to Pulsar and ADAT back into RME, so I can monitor through Hammerfall, but it was a pain in the ass. I guess I'd ...

I see. Well thast explains some of the confusion. Thing is that now I don't have any output from the RME card. I'll have to work on that. The Latency will only be as low as the Pulsar 1 card then, huh? Hmmmm, I may have to can this idea.

Thanks guys

Yeah, I know the chapter your referring too. I've read it over and as I said earlier, they are showing screen prints of software settings for the XTC hardware card with Cubase VST, neither of which I am using.

The examples they show are for the XTC card specifically. When you compare the "settings ...

Astroman,

Thanks. The SFP manual shows screen shots for the XTC card, which doesn't really help me because my "Settings" options are different (Pulsar 1 Hardware). I know I installed SFP with XTC componants though, but the manual isn't making sense because it's referencing Cubase 5 with XTC ...

I'm using SX with an RME Hammerfall and a UAD 1 card. I've got a Pulsar 1 card installed with SFP 3.1c, all in XP. How do I get the Pulsar effects to show up as VST plugins, as inserts to the Cubase mixer?
